The sex scene wasn't offensive in my opinion.


I don't know you about you guys but I didn't find the sex scene with Halle Berry and Billy Bob Thornton to be offensive. The way I see it, she was in a lot of pain and she needed someone to ease it. Desperate people do desperate things.

No way did I find that scene offensive, and I tend to be conservative about certain things but alas, it was indeed hot, hot, hot. OOOOOOoooooooooooooooooo

Scarface8890,

'Back to front' action for a "woman without a condom", and a man who has unprotected sex with hookers can be dangerous in the long run. I realize they were caught up in the heat of the moment, but in 'real life' it could spell disaster for her with not only an STD but maybe even cervical cancer in some cases. 'Fecal matter' on or inside a man's penis (after having anal sex)being transferred to the woman's vagina is a nightmare in itself (the main reason for the condom), which most people would rather not talk about, nor do most realize can happen after situations like this.

I don't think condom was created with fecal matter in mind @@

The scene was great. Billy Bob gave it to her, and he gave it to her good.

Far from offensive. Also far from erotic - it was an expression of pain or, rather, the suppression of pain by burying it in lust. I found it desperately sad.

This. Exactly.
I was actually crying watching it... So much pain, so much despair...
"I want you to make me feel better. I want you to make me feel good."
Leticia's clutching at straws while drowning - the state she's in is just so sad.... ;(((((

The offensiveness comes from the length and gratuitousness. It was basically a softcore pornographic sex scene
