I hope that is not too condescending or offensive to anyone. But I think many people from Europe have this opinion on the US. I just cannot really understand the prudery. I think the US is the country which produces the most porn films and I think a high percentage of the population watches porn.
Something many people in my country don't understand is the following: why is it so damaging to see one of Janet Jackson's nipples but watching violence on TV is okay? You could argue about the damage violence in movies can have to kids. I am not an expert on that. But the US is way more liberal concerning that in comparison to my country.
But what is so bad about a female nipple? This won't traumatize anyone.
Though I can understand why Americans wonder why nudism is so widespread in Europe. I really dislike it too. However I understand the allure of it and would not prohibit it. In my opinion nudity is too much of a taboo in the US. Nowadays instead of visiting nudity place you could also instead just upload some nudes of you on a porn site. The result would probably be the same.
I think a big reason for this prudery are the evangelicals. I would be pretty angry about them if people like had so much power in my country. Their stances on suicide are horrible and condescending. But the church is also too powerful in my country.
I want to apologize if I sound too rude with this stance. But I think many Europeans can't really relate to the prudery. There is so much censorship on US TV. It is weird. It is the country of freedom of speech but you can't say fuck on TV.
Of course my country is also hypocritical in many instances. The hypocritical German morality is famous. Maybe this stance is part of it who knows?
What do you think about the prudery in the US? Am I wrong?
