Not really the polar opposite, my personal views are that using human sexual drive as a means of marketing and mass entertainment is corrupt on many levels. But my point was more, the double standard is stupid. Why can we use half naked women in the media but not expect men to think of women as sexual objects? We are told they are all the time.
I'm not American so I can't comment on how prudish people are there, but I think you are correct people do get offended way to easy. But we live in an age that tells women to value them selves based on their sexual appeal and men to value them selves on the sexual conquests. And saying that is wrong to me has nothing to do with being prudish.
