56. Depends on HOW they show the "humping"
I'm not against showing how beautiful sex can be in films. I don't think it needs to be "faded to black". And I don't think they necessarily have to show a breast either. They can show it from a distance, from one person's back, through a mesh, etc. There are ways to show the beauty without making fun of it or acting like it's a freak show.

I think the OP used {deleted} so that he/she wouldn't get in trouble for having those words in the subject line. I don't think the Admin of DU really cares, so I may have not put it quite that way, but I certainly am not going to tell anyone how they should post.

I'm glad I read the post. The problem is that violence is glorified and the beauty of life and love are not. And that's part of the reason why so many children lack empathy. If it came down to showing two people making love or showing a violent rape, the violent rape WOULD be shown, but the other would be censored.

I think that's a huge problem, don't you?
