Having said that it still bugs me that there are people in the world who'll hurredly switch channels when James Bond is undoing his bond girl's dress as their children are watching, but when he's blowing up buildings or firing a gun, no-one bats an eyelid.
Shouldn't we be telling our children that violence is unnacceptable in any circumstances - that it's wrong and that under no circumstances should it be considered 'entertaining'? And that sex is something which does exist in the world and can be a wonderful and enlightingexperience when shared between two consenting adults who love each other deeply?
