Think about this. I am not complaing about the kiss. You are. You clicked on this thread- Britney: Mom Was Cool About Madonna Kiss ^- knowing pretty much what you were going to read about. And every time you refresh this thread, you know (as you have pointed out) that post number 11 contains a scene of mutual female osculation (and open mouthed at that- as if it had been closed mouth or Madonnna merely groping herself laciviously this would have been acceptable)- yet you choose to keep doing it.

If your complaint had been "why post such a disgusting graphic?"- it would've been one thing. But you played the 'moral indignation card'- which works well and is fair enough as long as there isn't anyone around who cares to 'one-up' you. (For example, how do you 'out-Christian' the person who thinks one should prostrate onesself 24/7 until he's dead of starvation?)

MTV, is not a public sidewalk. You don't have an intrinsic claim to 'incidental contact'. It is well-known what is at MTV- controversial things. You can't go to MTV and then talk about how the 'hookers' g'strings did/didn't show enough'. You can't. It doesn't add up.

You're free. You watched. You're offended. Your problem. We cannot keep you inviolate- in situ. You have come out of the womb and joined the world of the obscene, of the real. Reality is often offensive. We can dumb it down for you- but at what price? I think, it's better, if you opt out of the things that you feel cheapen your life- then your life is (for sure) not cheapened. Don't come to me and accuse me (as a proxy for free society) of cheapening you (or making you fat, lazy, stupid, cancerous etc). You did this to yourself.
