Another idiots shows you know nothing about what life is actually like in other countries.

I wasn't having a go at ALL Americans - I'm well aware that it's a huge country, and attitudes will vary, just like in most cosmopolitan places...

However, it is a FACT that depicting a woman receiving oral sex is frowned upon much more in America than it would be in Europe... Compare the fuss made over "Blue Valentine" to France's "Betty Blue", for example (which was released 24 years EARLIER, and there wasn't much of a big deal in France... )

You talk about me being judgemental, and yet you call me an idiot without hearing the full details of my reasoning? Calm down. I wasn't talking about 'life in other countries', I was talking about the culture of censorship on film... You don't have to be so defensive; it wasn't an insult.
