I agree people are more fearful but question that it's no less safe......but that's for another thread.

Americans seem to have a difficult time understanding how the term "obscene" might apply or not apply to nudity and violence. Brief, non-sexual nudity seems to be considered obscene and inappropriate (I disagree). And ugly, disturbing, gratuitous violence seems to be perfectly okay for a wide range of age groups. In my always-humble opinion, this is messed up.

If you have to ask you have not seen Terminator 3. Go rent it, and you will see that Arnold, while not what he was 25 years ago, is still very muscular, and fit.

That's true. Arnold was like that and dealt with it in the gym for the movie. Just a tune-up for him...

Both those before/after Arnold pics are photochop. Arnold has never looked anything like those after photos. He still looks pretty close to the before pics.

After living in Europe for a long time my views on nudity changed and now do not fit in with the majority of the people here in America.

Agree that the violence shown in America seems to be ok but to let women sunbathe topless is considered bad for you is pure BS.

LOL.

Hold on to your fantasies if you like, but neither shot was PhotoShopped. T3 had a bit of movie magic applied to Ahnold.
