And I'm still trying to figure out how a cartoon is so upsetting to some people. I mean..I've seen Homer Simpson "naked" AND on the toilet and I'm not freaking out.

50 years ago, TV could advertise firearms, pellet guns and cigarettes.

By the way, in case you haven't guessed, my wife and I hate this commercial, and the fact that it's a cartoon doesn't make it any more acceptable. "Fritz the Cat" was a cartoon, too, but certainly wasn't acceptable for the general public.
Oh, and firearms and cigarettes were not considered to be indecent by the society back then. As a matter of fact, whether or not you consider firearms to be a "bad" thing really depends on your politics, point of view, and experience with them. Cigarettes were not considered a "bad" or indecent thing back then...even doctors and famous actors were endorsing them (John Wayne), only to find out later that they caused cancer, etc.. But everyone knew that showing babies or toddlers s------g in their diapers was gross, disgusting and not cute or acceptable.

Well, GasX doesn't use real belching & farting in their commercials. Commercial TV even cuts one of the best scenes from Blazing Saddles. Whatever.....

Too many parents seem obsessed with the contents of their kid's diapers or whatever comes out either end. You only need to take a look at STFU Parents to see the proof of that one.
There is a diaper commercial on TV now with the little girl climbing up the stairs etc, some "ready to go" song playing in the background. That is cute. I admit I like the GasX commercial though..... "Your son Rip is on line toot" |
