It is interesting that nudity is considered so bad, as it is part of healthy and normal relationships between adults. Whilst violence isn't. I think I'd rather have young adults be tolerant about nudity than violence.
I totally agree. American cultural norms are strange in that regard. To be clear, i was not being judgemental, but just relating shock at something i was not used to having been raised in the US.
I live in China, and it's not uncommon for people to take their very young kids to the movies. Japanese 'bad guys' in movies can be stabbed, shot, dismembered and blood flying everywhere, and tge parents don't bat an eyelid. A PG-rated kiss however and the parents are covering the kids eyes with their hands :D
It's normal for humans of all ages. Does no one look in a mirror or take showers? My kids bathe together, sometimes with my wife. It's, uh, not a big deal, nor should it be.
And who said there's a "need"? Might as well why do you need TV at all? Nude bodies can look cool, so it seems as valid to show that as someone wearing sunglasses.
People don't have aliens bursting out of their chests in the street so why do you need to show aliens bursting out of people's chests at peak TV times on public television?
