Parents Television Council? Idiots?

Post by Coito ergo sum » Wed Oct 20, 2010 4:02 pm

The Parents Television Council has released a statement thrashing producers for allowing Dianna Agron, Cory Monteith and Lea Michele to participate in a "hyper-sexualized" photo shoot for the November issue of GQ -- despite the fact that both actresses are 24 years old and Corey is 28.

The PTC declares, “It is disturbing that GQ, which is explicitly written for adult men, is sexualizing the actresses who play high school-aged characters on ‘Glee’ in this way. It borders on pedophilia."

What the PTC is saying is that if adults dress up like teenagers, it borders on pedophilia. What? So much for all you "role players" out there - if you ladies dress up like Catholic school girls, you're bordering on pedophilia....

There seems to be this trend around to take any attraction or sexualization of anyone who who is or appears to be "a minor" and label it "pedophilia."

For the record - pedophilia is an improper attraction or desire for PREPUBESCENT children - those who have not reached sexual maturity. I.E. - generally kids under 12 or 13. Being attracted to or sexualizing adolescents or teens - being attracted to a sexy 17 year old or 16 year old is NOT pedophilia.

The actresses are of age. It's a men's magazine where this is appearing, not television.

Fuck the Parents Television Council.

What the hell? Parents Television Council?

Let us think the unthinkable, let us do the undoable, let us prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all.

Christian Television Council you mean.
"The fact is that far more crime and child abuse has been committed by zealots in the name of God, Jesus and Mohammed than has ever been committed in the name of Satan. Many people don't like that statement but few can argue with it."
