Comment on Why is the approach to nudity and sex in films and tv so vastly different between the US and Europe?

  If you think that a particular thing matters a lot, and other people think that thing doesn’t matter at all, then clearly they’re nihilistic degenerates.

    And just like that, suddenly Alles Scheiße is no longer cool, go figure.

    Europeans are the masters of nihilism. It’s kind of honestly surprising your birth rates aren’t lower. We have our own growing culture of nihilism to battle and we certainly don’t need it harder.

    Americans are far from prudes, but there’s a place and a time for nudity. If we allowed public nudity in advertisements, half of our billboards would turn into porn. If you don’t believe me, look at any state that’s legalize marijuana: it seems literally half of all advertising is for weed. Maybe if we didn’t have hyper aggressive market forces we could relax our laws a bit.
