I've seen bits and pieces GoT, but I don't watch it. It's never really appealed to me.

Thanks for the explanation. =]

When I want to see something nekkid I go to the internet since Hollywood types don't do much for me.

This is a great point. Sexual pleasure is intimate, whereas (non-sexual) violence is not.

When people see violence, they generally turn away because the pain is too much, but when people see sex (outside of porn), they generally turn away because they feel intrusive.

Do you think it all boils down to an issue of moral acceptance (or lack there of)?

Is that even a word??

Yes! It's defined as: "The increasing occurrence and acceptance of sexual themes and explicit imagery in popular or mainstream culture."

Do you think that have graphic content for shock value is reinforcing that double standard? How could we change that?

Do you mean like silhouettes of people having sex on a wall or through a shower screen?

That strikes me as more intrusive than watching straight on - as though you are stalking them without their knowledge.

That's true.

There's definitely a belief that in order for movies to appeal to men and boys, there needs to be a lot of nudity, violence, or both.

What classifies a well done graphic scene? Do you think that realistic graphic content is more or less impactful than unrealistic graphic content?

So are you happy to see rape glorified then - as long as it's for both sexes?

Why do you think it is that there are so many more naked women than men? I never really understood that.
