Gaby Hoffmann is ‘annoyed’ that nudity is more controversial than violence

1. I’ll check her milkers out.

   edit- okay she’s been full on mirkin nude. not as good as a john wick movie, but not bad.

2. It’s more and more controversial because the *actors* are the ones uncomfortable having to do them, and they’re being more vocal about how much they dislike it.

3. I mean, we should all be on the same page about that… right?

4. It’s especially weird because short of rape or abuse nudity doesn’t have a moral dimension like violence does. There’s nothing inherently immoral or harmful about two people having sex, changing clothes or showering while the same can’t be said for fighting, shooting, stabbing, kidnapping etc. I always ask if you would rather your child watch a real/fictional video of two people having sex or someone being tortured to death. It’s insane that you can watch Leatherface cut someone’s face off and wear it on TV but a woman’s naked body simply existing is anathema. It shows how morally backwards and puritanical our society is.

5. How many more times does this have to be posted? Is it my turn next?

6. I tend to think context is key.

   After all, violence is routinely used to progress the more common types of Genres.

   However, it would be very controversial to convey violence in a film that is primarily meant for romance or seduction.

   There are simply more action movies than there are erotic movies or even romance movies that have a need for nudity within that romance.

7. Time for full penetration in hollywood.

8. Puritans suck because they okay with killing and violence but see a boob? Omg

9. Nudity in film brings question of consent and exploitation. Violence does not.

10. I had to look her up, one of the girls from ‘Now and Then’.
