[BC] How Far is OK and Common Decency...

[Sid Schweiger]

>>IMHO, we need to go a step further and ask why indecency works as an
attention and ratings grabber. Why is porn the biggest thing on the
internet? What is it about our culture that makes that which is
essentially indecent attractive to so many?<<

Easy.

1) It shocks.

2) It is viewed as unattainable, even if only subliminally.  Humans tend
to covet what they think they can't have.
