OUTRAGE! Filmaker Shows Male Genitals, Hides Female
By John Lillpop
The Reader is a enthralling movie, worth seeing because of the great story line, terrific acting, and captivating music.
It tells of a summer love affair between a 35-year old ticket taker, Kate Winslet, and a 15-year old student, David Kross, with the horrors of the Holocaust cast in a supporting, almost cameo role.
The Reader leaves little to the imagination with respect to the young man's body parts, including one brief frontal shot of his genitals.
Unfortunately, censorship mania takes over when it comes to the beautiful young woman and her blessings. Although her naked breasts are shown, the movie does not expose her genitalia.
Why are foreign filmmakers so willing to exploit an exposed penis, but scared to death of a living, breathing vagina?
Sexism? Discrimination?
As a male chauvinist pig, I demand equal time for the V-organ!
