Read this as an "out of the closet fan" of the show - I have to admit the comments under it startled me greatly!

I saw the show yesterday as the illegal website I use to watch some shows here is ahead of the UK and there really was nothing "Sexual" about it at all, as far as I could make out, neither couple even took their tops off!!

    Thanks for reminding me to d/l this; with the mid-season break I had forgotten it was back.

    Indeed. America is massively conflicted about sex! Hold the front page! Bet Murdoch had a wry smile at being accused of being part of the liberal conspiracy. :lol:

    But yet True Blood is celebrated...

    Isn't doggy and anal banned in some states while prostitution and marrying your Cousin in the very same States legal?

    Anyway, will western society ever move past homosexuality being taboo? I don't know. The Romans didn't have a problem with it. What I do know is nothing was more graphic than that Torchwood gay sex scene earlier this year. I didn't have a problem with it being two men, just that it was a little early for something so steamy.

    You know some filthy policemen suggested that, with the hope that they'd get to police that.

    Nope, because you might have to work with someone you just don't like. Whereas you don't mind watching them doing the stuff, just not to you...

    I once heard a tale, perhaps a bit tall, that a bloke in Oklahoma was imprisoned after it came out in his divorce hearing that he'd had oral sex with his wife in the privacy of their marital bedroom.
    He was only let off when his lawyer pointed out that he would receive a shorter sentence for having anal sex with a dead donkey in the middle of the town square.
    I haven't checked this on Snopes, so it may be cobblers. Made me laugh though.

    Surely that still depends who is doing the stuff (from an aesthetic point of view). Or does the stuff trump any and all aesthetic failings? :?

    I think it's a little from column A and a little from column B.
