Two Men Kissing Deemed More Offensive Than Graphic Decapitation


A new poll on WhatTheyPlay.com shows just how f**ked up our society remains in terms of the acceptance of gays. By a small margin, when asked, parents found that scenes of a graphic decapitation were LESS offensive for viewing by children than scenes of two males kissing. There are truly somedays when I'd just like to leave American society. Here some commentary on the poll results:

In the modern parenting spectrum of objectionable content, apparently two men kissing somehow equates to imagery so vile, that it would be worse for a child to view such an act than a graphic decapitation. As WhatTheyPlay.com editor John Davidson said, "W.T.F?"

We've got a long, long way to go, people, and I hope that our gay video game developing constituents begin to pay more attention.

I may borrow this for a Sunday Poll Question.

I think the image of two men kissing is a beautiful thing. Graphic decapitation, on the other hand, is highly disturbing. The world is f*cked up.
