Grow up, America, it was just a breast. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about, because a two second flash of a breast with a barely visible nipple has been in all the news, and... I can't believe I'm typing this... now is under FCC investigation. For a breast that you missed if you blink. It's being called, "a classless, crass and deplorable stunt." Get over it. And this gets me - how do people know it was planned? Because Justin Timberlake was laughing and made a joke about giving people something to talk about. You see, he wasn't contrite enough. He wasn't crying in shame and rending his own clothes. He wasn't on his knees to his nation begging for forgiveness. So you see? It was planned! Did you see the look on Janet Jackson's face? If it was planned, it was obviously news to her.
Here in Canada, Global Television received a single complaint about nudity. No, it wasn't the breast, it was about Richard Hatch strolling around in the buff on Survivor: All-Stars. Okay, that I can understand.
I'm getting really tired of hearing about how parts of my body, parts that are designed to feed babies, are obscene. There is nothing obscene about the human body. Half the world has boobs. Half the world has vaginas. Half the world has penises. Everyone has an ass. Can we please stop being horrified over them?
Anyway, why not buy the t-shirt?
