I think that as an adult, I have the right to view adult oriented material. I really do not feel that watching a gore movie is any less hurtful to me than controlling a character performing violent acts. Do they desensitize me to violence? Maybe, but I'm certain that if I actually saw someone getting torn to bits with a chainsaw bayonet in real life, I would probably be sick as opposed to cheering "hell yes!" as I did it (like when I play Gears of War).

So yes, I do feel that we should be given the right to choose what we want to listen to, read, watch, and even play. Even if that material may be offensive or disgusting to other people.
