Tends to lead people to think that would be the normal activity on a first date. I really ticks me off that the commercials, no less the regular shows have so much nudity, curse words, and rude behavior. I mean even the normal television times for children in the evening don't have shows that they can watch.
Oh and lets not get started on children's movies and cartoons. Shrek and Sponge Bob along with other like them really tick me off. I think it is the first Shrek movie that was talking about Snow White. The line goes something like "Yeah, she lives with 7 men, but she is not easy!"
I know most children would not get this reference and I understand the reason they put it in....to keep the parents giggling while watching the movie with their children. But I get SO ANGRY that parents would even accept this for their kids. Yes watching Bambi would not be my idea of adult entertainment, but I watch it with my kids because I want to spend time with them.
The people of this country need to start remembering the important values that need to be instilled in our youth and either turn off the tv or be an expert at reviewing the content of the cartoons and movies we let them watch.
Wow, so sorry for the rant, but this topic really gets my hackles up!
