When my kid came up to me and asked what a 'douche bag' is, I told him in the politest way possible what it means, literal and slang versions. I would be doing him no favors by avoiding the subject. There are few things that I wouldn't tell him if he asked because the truth is, it's not going to harm him. He knows that calling someone a douchebag is not nice or polite. But it's one more thing that he learns from me rather than from kids at school.
But TSR saying that you can't have anything to do with nipples, then letting the "Pussy" dress out? It's like saying "Hey kids, when you grow up, go ahead and be as crude and immature as you want. Just remember that real people with real bodies are bad,
bad,
bad." I mean, everyone has nipples, right? So, instead of being a rigidly PG-13 site, they waver. It's like they're too lazy to keep up the wholesome image, but too greedy to take it down and possibly risk parents not forking over money for their kids' subscriptions. But I'll wager an apple to an acorn that none of the
kids are bothered by any of it. If I was a *12* I would be rejoicing over more realistic Sims. I'd be like
Yeah, I'm so over Barbies, Mom. Hello, I'm *12*!In the end, it's T$R's hypocrisy that is so offensive. And that's why this thread is win.
