the people that have issues with these ads actually have inner issues that they need to deal with themselves,

Common decency, modesty ect are some traits which separate humans from animals. A human who cant comprehend this has inner issues that they need to deal with themselves.

Exactly.

I have a set of guiding principles. They are different from yours. They are my own. My guiding principles say that sexuality is no big deal. Why does nobody remember the lessons from prohibition? When you forbid something you make it that much more enticing.

At the end of the day, humans are animals. Look at our behaviors in groups and alone. “A person is smart, people are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals.” Common decency, morals, etc. are artificial societal constructs. One man’s common decency is another man’s prudishness.

I understand that when you poke and prod at someone’s inner “moral fiber” that you’re going to get resistance because human beings are conciously resistant to change. We are mentally lazy. I understand that when I say something against the “God squad” here that I’m going to get flamed. It doesn’t change my frame.
