But I did.

Movies are considered acceptable for adults, games are still considered the domain of children.

Movies aren't interactive, games are.

People would prefer kids to imitate violence over sex.

 

So.. having sex is worse than killing?

hmmm...

 

wait, that's stupid.

Maybe so, but surely you know this? Violence has been a part of games forever. Even though it wasn't very explicit before, we've always been blowing shit up (Combat, Galaga, etc.). It's just accepted. If you take a game that's completely inoffensive, like Bomberman, keep the same gameplay and cutesy aesthetics but change the bombs to penises that splatter semen on your opponents, you'll have a shitstorm on your hands. It's not much more explicit, but it is infinitely more controversial, because, yes, sex is worse than killing.
