This is one of my favorites. It's the only one from Myspace I had left to put up here. I hope you enjoy it. Send me some love!....or hate that's cool too.
If you know me at all you know I love the show Family Guy...everytime I sit down to watch my beloved show filled with witty farts and my (in)famous Peter Griffin laugh it begins with these lines..."It seems today that all ya see is violence in movies and sex on TV, but where are those good old fashioned values on which we used to rely?" Though intended to be a throwback to the classic and politically incorrect show of yester year's televison, "All in the Family," it's really...a pretty good question. What's my point? That violence and sex shouldn't be allowed in movies or TV? No. In fact I'd be mad if someone did away with violent movies. I love horror movies that make you cringe and make you wonder why in the Hell you're watching this depravity. Sex on the other hand, though entertaining, doesn't really hold any sort of priority when I'm choosing a show or feature film to watch. When I say this, two questions pop into people's heads...the first of which is "Are you gay?" The answer is no. I'm straight and very confident in my sexuality. The second question would be..."Why not, Chris?" Well here's the thing. Both violence and promiscuousness are morally depraved and for lack of a better term trashy. However, if someone watches a film about a bunch of attractive college kids getting tortured and slaughtered they will more than likely be disgusted or disturbed. If they're not that means they have no soul or the movie sucked. Yet if someone watches a movie about a bunch of attractive college kids screwing each other, they're going to become aroused. So? So sexuality is so welcomed and encouraged in society that nobody sees any harm in doing what they do in the movies or on TV...reality TV shows like Flavor of Love and I Love New York, go so far as to make sex and love seem synonomous. Do I think that people who watch trashy over-sexed TV are bad people? No, in fact one of the most chaste people I know...a girl who has vowed to save herself for marriage (a noble vow to make especially nowadays.) and has not once wavered even the slightest bit from her vow...is OBSSESED with trashy TV and trashy music. Violence is everywhere. Sex is everywhere. You can't even go dancing without having an arrogant sonuvabitch yell at you about how he's gonna cap a mutha or how much he wants to bang that crazy bitch. Most people are not going to watch a violent movie and go on a killing spree. If they do, then they had problems before hand and should've been locked away. Most people will however at least entertain the possiblity of some sort of sexual encounter with someone after watching movies which border on being soft-core porn and listening to music that forgot what innuendo...and music are. So again...What's my effing point? Sex is dangerous and people need to be taught that it isn't something to be taken lightly. I don't think it should be banned or anything but at least treat it like what it is...a vice. A lifestyle that often leads to ruin whether it be physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual. People in the media are so quick to call movies that go under the genre of horror, depraved, trash, or not worth your time. Granted they usually are pretty bad but sometimes people will write off a movie for being violent without even considering it's other elements. But movies that are overly sexual, music that is clearly made with no talent (music rant coming soon.) and is openly vulgar, degrading, and just plain bad, and TV shows about stupid ass celebrities sleeping with a bunch of other stupid-asses...are hailed and welcomed with open arms. Call it like it is that's all I'm saying. Learn to keep your damn pants on...and if you're really one with so little will power...masturbate! (Wow was that forward or what?) Maybe you don't think sex is a big emotional thing. Maybe you don't care if your partner cares about you. Maybe you don't give a damn if your partner has had sex with other people and is thinking about those people rather than being in the moment with you. Maybe so....but what if you end up falling desprately in love with someone who does want someone who truely cares, who does want their partner to be in the moment with them, who wants to be with someone who sees sex as an expression of love reserved for only the deepest kinds of love. What then? What will that do to you and your relationship? I love sickeningly violent movies...I don't mind a steamy sex scene or trashy TV show every once in a while. I read Stephen King who is a master of both so...yeah. All I'm saying is that people should be more careful and see that sex shouldn't be as widespread as it is. It's a vice that should be treated as such. Keep your pants on and your knives sheathed. Don't be the reason people try to censor our movies and television.
