The War on Nipples

The good news is those weapons of mass destruction have finally been found.

The bad news is your mother, sister, aunt, and grandma are all guilty of having them.

Very sad indeed.

The only reason I even watched Friends was Jennifer Anistons never tiring nipples. I was amazed they could be erect so much.

This goes right in line with the Hooters thread. America is so uptight ab out sexuality. Its O.k. to chop off a breast but not o.k. to expose a naked one.

We are indeed warped here.

Have I mentioned that I heart boobs?

Seriously I proposed this question to my wife;

"You have the choice between bare breasts and violence on prime time TV. The bare breasts will simply be that - girls walking around topless - no sex really just topless and the violence is exactly what we see on today's shows at 9pm."

She picked the boobs too.

This was started with me when I was watching "las vegas" and after that I had the TV still on and the next show started to come on. After I came back from the bathroom to the TV I was assaulted with an image of a young woman on a table disemboweled with blood splattered all over the room and a fellow on the floor mumbling to himself...

I've got a pretty strong stomach but if I had to choose boobs or that for my son to see it's boobs every day of the and twice on sunday.

The violence has got to go.

This is the worst part:

"The producers of TV's Desperate Housewives have reportedly spent thousands of dollars digitally removing the nipples from on-screen images of actresses Teri Hatcher and Nicolette Sheridan."

Really, thousands of dollars. That does not sound like a bad career. No wonder everything is so inflated these days.

It's about time. Nipples have led to so many deaths and have resulted in so much human tragedy that it's about time we decried them for the evil structures that they are. I've seen them personally and can report they are much scarier in person than most of us imagine.

I also agree that if we can get human body parts off television, and replace those images with something more socially acceptable like disembowelments, cannibalism and casual murder, then we'd be doing a big favor for the future of this place. Foul, nasty, rotten things. Better for our kids to play video games of military conquest than to expose then to concepts like nursing mothers and such.

Was that comment in reference to the job, or to the size of the bosoms?

Probably a little of both - - I really wonder how much it costs to cover up something like this. I disagree with this and would rather have the violence off local television.

I used to date a girl that could tape 'em down AND wear a bra & they still poked through. You coulda put an eye out on those things.

I saw a guy on TV one time who made his living as a celebrety nipple arouser. I'm not making this up. It was his job to ensure that they were properly at attention before they took the stage, went in front of a camera, or whatever. I assumed he had some high-tech device with which to accomplish this. Not so; he just rubbed them and rolled them between his fingers. Sometimes truth really is stanger than fiction.

Agreed, there aren't many things in life better than a meaty toe.

Man, if you're watching Desperate Housewives or Stacked, nipples are the least of your problems

What about your father, brother, uncle and grandpa? Last I heard, they all had nipples too.
