QUOTE (pysex @ Feb 27 2009, 01:35 AM)  uhhh yeah i don't see that so much as pussification just parents not wanting to give their kids nightmares sure they'll be exposed to stuff like that when they're older but leave the young ones innocent honestly i'd probably be emotionally scarred if someone like raffi only had one arm Really, you think it's scary? I don't think it's any more frightening than someone being in a wheelchair, which most kids have seen a few times. They tend to be more curious than scared. -------------------- |

QUOTE (Spectatrix @ Feb 26 2009, 01:55 PM) I know this thread is about America, but I thought we could go international with this story about the pussification of the UK. Long story short, the BBC hired a new gal as one of the hosts for a children's show and parents are afraid that their kids are going to be frightened because she's missing part of her right arm (birth defect of some sort). http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/29391313 this story is now on the front page of CNN --------------------  |

They tend to be more curious than scared. all it is is parents trying to avoid the truth for as long as they possibly can i really don't see a problem with her being the host...where i do see it becoming a problem is when organizations are formed for the purpose of proliferating disfigured/mutated actors for the tv/movie screen there's not a market that supports that....i personally don't want to see an armless spiderman in my next movie simply because he has a right to be on screen -------------------- "Ah, y'know it's funny, these people they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good. They wake up the next day and they're on fire."
