RE: Is It Time The Babe Channels Stand Up To Ofcom And Show What They Want
What sort of society would organise itself so its members are encouraged to watch scenes of extreme violence rather than scenes of consensual lovemaking and sex? The answer, of course, is Western, human, society, and well done Kevin Maher for pointing this out ("Parents thought The Hunger Games would teach their kids about junk culture, instead they got a bloodbath", Times2, Apr2).
This is something that has troubled me for my entire adult life. A lengthy military career has taught me that most soldiers have a preference for lovemaking over fighting or killing. I don't watch much of either, in one case because I abhor it and in the other because I'm not allowed to!
I was only mildly surprised to learn that it is the bankers that are responsible for this imbalance.

I seriously wonder what Ofcom's response would be if they were asked the simple question, "Why are you happy to allow children to veg in front of a nightly tv diet of horrific violence and mutilation?"

I voted no because it would just give Ofcom the excuse they want to shut the channels down completely.

RE: Is It Time The Babe Channels Stand Up To Ofcom And Show What They Want
I'm currently sifting through the channels and it's nothing but wall to wall of shit, so tame, the kind of content we used to see at 9PM and not 10 minutes to one in the morning when they used to be full stream ahead and thrust into action by this point, Ofcom have ruined our night's viewing, it's no longer a spectacle anymore, I think the time has come that the channels collectively as one for the good of the Adult entertainment business get together and hit Ofcom with everything's they've got, knock down the door's and demand for change because what I'm witnessing tonight for show's supposed to be 18+ is embarrassing. Either we get change or the show's are just going to deteriorate even further until they vanish for good off our screen's.

Thanks for your rather predictible reply there ilovemegan, this the channels are only interested in making money argument has been played to death on this forum and serves no purpose. Have you got anything that might be remotely original to add to this discussion.
