one makes a generalization you can criticize it for ignoring
details. Of course the US South is the most conservative and
the coast more liberal, but look at what you can put on TV?
Where can you put a bare female breast on TV? Not around
here. France, yes. SCandanavia? Overall we are still
conservative. I taught a course in sexuality, and there were
Southern and Northern versions. In the Northern versions they
showed pictures of various body parts etc. In the South those
were converted to drawings! How silly can you get?</div>

Silly indeed.<br>

Years ago, I got off the train in Cologne, and was confronted with a
large, almost life-size, poster showing a full frontal naked female
(of course, I don't remember what it was advertising, I probably
didn't even notice that at the time!). This was in the early 2000s.
Nobody was paying any particular attention, or making a fuss. I
think I was the only person even slightly taken aback.<br>
<br>
Imagine this in a train station in the US!<br>
