Parents...severed heads over gay kissing?

Parent-oriented video game site WhatTheyPlay.com had a poll earlier this week which caused the site's own editor to post W.T.F. on his personal blog. The results of the unscientific poll showed that respondents were almost equally disturbed by the idea of a "graphically severed human head" as they were by "two men kissing" in a video game. Respondents were actually far more offended by a man and a woman having sex, which received 37% of the vote, while dropping the F-bomb only received 10%.

As GamePolitics points out, the results are in line with traditional American values and legal precedent, which holds sex to a different First Amendment standard than violence. We're not judging one way or the other, but we know what actions might cause us to pause (possibly take a photo) if we saw them on the street and which would have us calling the cops.

Re: Parents...severed heads over gay kissing?

I would much rather see a "graphically severed human head" than two guys kissing.

A "graphically severed human head".

It would be much less damaging to them IMO...

Re: Parents...severed heads over gay kissing?

Dak, why would you say that two men kissing would be so damaging? Is it because the children may begin to consider it acceptable?

Let me answer that by asking you a few questions first.

Do you believe certain men are born to be attracted to blondes more than brunettes? Do you believe certain men are born to be attracted to breasts more than legs?

I do not. I believe they pick up those attractions during their key development period. By exposing kids to two men kissing, I believe the risk is there for them to become attracted to that.

That is my opinion, like it or not.

Well, I actually believe that a lot of stuff, such as attraction, is programmed into our body genetically, however it can be influenced by the external environment. So I don't disagree with you at all, but I don't completely agree with you either.

I understand your argument, but couldn't you also say that seeing a man and a woman kiss, perhaps rather provocatively, could cause a boy to become a womanizer, or a girl a whore?
