I will refrain b/c i have no etiquette and I dont wanna get baned!
Then we'll have to just guess! Here's my theory: it's dumb because everyone ought to know that any sexual situation in a movie is automatically bad. Nobody, no matter what their age or spiritual maturity, should ever watch those movies.
Am I close?

Well, since you asked this to ILG who has participated in the WHOLE thread, I guess that means that YOU haven't read the whole thread -
Unfortunately I have! The discussion on sex scenes in movies is valid. The discussion on male sexuality is the one I think is dumb! Unless I am misunderstanding something. Socialite seems to have the idea that when a man sees a scantily clad woman immediate thoughts of how she would be in bed ravage that mans mind! I believe this is not the case in most men! Sure I know we as men are turned on visually more than emotionally, but to think every man is in some state of mental seduction and fantasy when looking at women is absurd!

The two topics were very much related, allstate.
The thoughts may not be specifically about sex acts in bed, but a sexual image definitely prompts sexual thoughts in a man. Science has proven that a man's brain responds immediately, quickly and in high intensity to erotic images. This isn't shooting in the dark here. The insertion of sex into our environment is not because it has no effect, it's because it presents a rush, tantalizing, stimulated and eroticizes the masses.
So, in your book of guesses, how many does the sexual scene affect? 1 man out of 5? 1 out of 10? 1 out of 100?
My entire point about male sexuality is to show its relevance in the discussion about inappropriate scenes in movies.
Women have unique challenges as well, but I'm not prepared to speak to all of that at the moment.

I guess I have misunderstood you point. When you brought up the every mans battle thing I assumed you meant ALL men! I guess my arguement is simple If a 2 minute nude sex scene gets a man in such a state of arousal that he has to DO something that man has major issues!!!
