Or any show where antagonist murders someone?
Yes? Very likely right? There's usually not much censorship when it comes to killing someone. You can see people with gunshot wounds and blood and stuff...
Now... have you ever watched a show with explicit sex scenes on mainstream tv?
How about just some exposed breasts or a penis?
No?
Why?
Why is sex or some body parts... which is a normal occurrence in life... censored. But violence and murder... well that's not censored? Which is a more reasonable action involved in daily life?
Same for games... has anyone played any sexually related games? How about games which it's ok to rob, murder, steal?
Why? Which is more reasonable?
Does this make sense?
The thing is... sex and some body parts are... taboo...
Violence, murder, killing... isn't taboo.
It's nothing really to do with reasonable or not.
Legally, sex is acceptable, murder, theft, beating someone up... is not. But yet on media, it's the other way round.
It's taboo... you just can't talk about it.
Logically, things which are involved in normal life should be allowed, and actions which are deemed socially unacceptable should not be allowed...
OR at least both should not have similar levels of censorship.
Now, I'm not here to change society. I just try to look at things differently and think about them a bit.
For me, this doesn't make sense.
Mortal Kombat is easily obtainable and is usually legal.
Opinions anyone?
