In general, I think allot of Americans are almost uptight as
Muslims when it comes to sex and sexiness. France, Italy,
Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Greenland, Iceland seem way more
realistic, healthy and artistically entertaining when it comes
to sex, sex appeal and sex within art, the media and overall
culture.
Last night while watching Brooke Anderson on ShowBiz Tonight, I
saw this interesting piece regarding "Sex On TV" --- the main
guest providing commentary was prudishly against it and became
boringly typical and stereotypical after a bit --- and there was
no really good counterpoints --- which were, I guess, supposed
to be left to the imagination of the viewers.
Well, "hey Mr. Light Man, how about turning those lights down?
way down ............ Ah, what do we care?!"
There's an overhead dogmatic presence when it comes to sex in
American homes even. And, sure, well, yeah, there are even
freaking laws in the south where people can enjoy oral or
something like that. Moreover, you have this uptight, prudish
woman on CNN's ShowBiz Tonight which cannot even entertain the
entertainment value of sex on HBO and ShowTime and she spews
puritanical rhetoric of some kind of outdated moral crusade from
a broken and morally bankrupt "contract with America."
When I see David Duchovony is involved in the ShowTime series in
question, although I have never seen the series aside from the
clips on ShowBiz Tonight, I would say it's safe to say that Mr.
Duchovony is tasteful enough as a successful actor and decent
human being that he would not be part of a series that is like
mere porn (and not to be taken as anything against healthy
mainstream porn).
The scene I saw of the David Duchovony series was him in a
bathrobe and some hot trollop in some sexy undergarments and she
was on-all-fours while he was doing a line of, what I assume
was, cocaine from her lower-back/panty-line up her spine to her
middle.
What an image! This seemed like good artwork to me. That's all.
In the respect that most men and women lead horribly boring
lives and have not tapped into any meaning-of-life, this is all
this pathetic viewers have to make themselves feel like
rock-stars. People barely read anymore, they hardly engage in
any civic stimulation, they hate their families, their
miserable, they're not very social, not very sexxy and this kind
of "healthy" sexuality on TV is an obvious release for them.
I'd rather they watch sex on TV than repress and suppress
themselves more to the point it's unhealthy and then they commit
acts like allot of the revered "good Reverends" do to get them
in trouble or any act which is, literally, violating another.
For another day, we've taken meaningful "ritual" out of lives
and have filled it with stress, hypocrisy and more lies and
repression. This is a big part of the sociological ills of
modern society and the need to live vicariously through
characters on-the-screen.
We've been transformed from naked bodies dancing on the hillside
to a pair of eyes staring in the dark at the silver screen.
P.S. Brooke looked hot last night = A+++
