In main stream movie and television productions, not least from America, there seem to be an extreme surplus of very vivid, sometimes grotesque violence depicted. However when it comes to sex a quick shot of a naked breast is all the audience is allowed to see. The rest you have to imagine (you filthy you!) or search on the porn shelves. The word porn meaning something dirty and shameful.

Why is it easier to digest and accept an appalling scene where a woman is, in great detail, mutilated with a chainsaw - than one where she is made love to ??

IMHO it is UTTER (there I go again) nonsense and a dangerous path, raising acceptance for violence and a ridiculous guiltiness about sex.
