Recent new headlines are reoprting that a 15-year-old boy who murdered his mother with a hammer and set her body on fire has been detained for a minimum of 16 years.
The court heard he had been particularly interested in a Coronation Street storyline involving the character John Stape, wherein he had murdered a woman with a hammer and then left her body in the wreckage of a tram crash. It was also revealed the boy had been watching violent horror films since he was eight and had viewed the film Saw hours before killing his mother.
Children frequently mimic the actions of people that they admire which is all part of learning how to deal with various situations in life. The problem arises when children are not provided with sufficient moral guidance and clear definitions of what is right and wrong. This is not the first time that a child has imitated something that they have seen on tv and in films with devaststing consequences.
There are a multitude of pictures, films and videos which children see which are packed with death and gruesome scenes of violence and viscious brutality. These visual scenes are seldom banned but are usually age restricted but that doesn't guarantee that children under the prescribed age won't view them.
What I don't understand is that violence & murder seems to be acceptable for an age restricted audience but non-sexual nudity & naturism is not acceptable for any audience.
To my knowledge there has never been a case of anyone suffering injury or death as a result of anyone mimicking the activity of naturists, so I cannot comprehend why nudity should be banned when it's a perfectly natural state.
I cannot understand why people pay good money to view images or violence, gore and human suffering yet these same people express shock and horror that naturists shed their clothes and enjoy being naked which is perfectly natural.
It seems that the horrors in life are socially acceptable but the natural naked body is not. Has the world gone mad, why does society accept gruesome suffering yet not accept the natural beauty of the naked human form.
totally agree... how many acts of death and violence do children see in a day? Yet if they see as much as a woman's nipple there is shock,horror? Who are they trying to kid?
ReplyDeleteI also agree! Excellent points!
ReplyDeleteExactly! This world is indeed ass-backwards. I also can't understand why violence is accepted as a normal everyday event and nudity isn't. They always connect nudity to sex in their shallow minds when it has nothing to do with it.
ReplyDeleteThat though, also gives me a second reason to to wonder why they are more shocked by nudism. If for some reason nudism was connected to sex, I STILL would have to wonder why it seems worse in their shallow minds because sex is ALSO a natural part of life. Therefor, neither nudism OR sex are bad or unnatural parts of life, so why should either one be shunned anyway, no matter if their shallow minds connect the two or not?
I guess that's just it, their shallow minds.
Both nudism and sex, while NOT related to each other, are natural and beautiful parts of life, just as is love for one another.
Murder and violence are NOT natural and are forms of hatred, not love.
I don't know about the normal routine of society in general, but I choose the beauty of the natural parts of life which are a part of loving and enjoying life, NOT murder and violence which are about about hatred of life and ending lives.
We agree. This is just one example why we started nudisthotspot.com We are doing our part to try to spread the word about nudism/naturism in a positive and healthy atmosphere.
ReplyDeleteAll of us (Well, almost all of us) are conceived by two nude bodies engaging in a natural and wholesome way, and born into this world nude. It is society in general, that makes stories like this seem "Normal", while we are taught and conditioned to be shocked when we see a human body without clothes.
Ass-backward is right Wade.
Thanks to all who spread the nudist creed in a positive and healthy manner!
You're addressing the converted but you express it very well!!
ReplyDeleteAgree, of course.
Great post Roy and totally agree with your comments. The world is mad when it is acceptable to view horror,murder and violence but peaceful naturism...oh no that's plain wrong according to much of the media!
