1. Yeah this one is ridiculous. We look like violence-crazed maniacs with this.

Agreed.

2. Uuhhhh...what? Maybe a percentage of fundamentalist Christians are prudes, but I'd say the majority of Americans are into sex out in the open.

---

1 is a perfect example of this. That somehow a nipple is worse than a person getting blown up is a perfect example of the puritan prudery. We are fine with the suggestion of sex in marketing, etc. Americans are terrified of openly engaging in candid discussion.

3. I love hugs! Then again, I'm 50% Italian.

Yeah, I'm WASP mostly, and I'm fine with hugs.

4. Anti-abortion violence? What does this actually mean?

---

Terrorism against abortion clinics. I don't know how much of this is an actual thing. But you gotta admit the irony if it actually is. Some one is so sensitive to the idea of taking human life that a fetus itself is sacred commits murder to get this idea across. Again, I don't know how much of a thing this actually is.

5. Sorry I'd rather my penis not look like a star nose mole.

Those ant eater people are just jealous.
