Thanks for the enlightenment...
: The MPAA is made up of a rotating group of parents. Parents decide what is objectionable, so that should answer any questions about why sex in penalized and violence slips right on by.
Hmm, it doesn't really. Personally, while I'm not a parent, I would much prefer that my hypothetical kids see sexual than violent content; I would definitely be much less worried if they saw a movie that contained a lot of "foul" language which they wouldn't understand than if they saw people being cut in two. Sex would be something I'd hope my children would someday understand and enjoy, whereas I'd rather violence were something they never came to see as entertainment.
But I'm just freaky like that, I suppose.

There's no sex in your violence.
