Meanwhile, in America...
While the rest of the the progressive western world is addressing climate change, plastic pollution, and refugee resettlement, here in the USA we have this:

Re: Meanwhile, in America...
Just gotta love you yanks.
You certianly know how to play a trump card.
Mr B Hill would be quite envious of this pinnacle of tasteful display.
All we have at the moment is who wore what dress at the BAFTAs.

I just think it smells!!
Why do they need this anyway. Why not have the actors running around in a skirt? It is much more tasteful.

And this farting troll is from the country that covers up nipple shots and pubic hair on females and genitalia on males. We have a programme starring Amilia Fox called "Silent Witness" in which she plays a forensic pathologist. In the programme a naked female on the autopsy table will be shown with nipples and pubic hair; similar shots from an American programme will not show the same. A bit prudish of your society, but hey who am I to criticise? Look at the nipple slip of Ms Jackson a few years ago in the Superbowl half time show and the furore that accompanied it. Such a slip over here wouldn't have produced a fraction of the comment.
I believe in offering every assistance short of actual help but then mainly just want to be left to be myself in all my difference and uniqueness.

Well, it was a troll doll, after all. If there is a troll doll fetish among those who utilize porn on the net, I am not aware of it, and do not wish to be.

Re: Meanwhile, in America...
We have an expression here in the US that clearly applies here, "Only in America!"
People everywhere else have more brains and decorum than to even think of such an item, let alone actually spend money on it!
Maybe you Brits had a point in your disdain for us as uncivilized country bumpkins.

"Disdain" is probably the wrong word. "Silent amusement form afar" with a knowing smile and shake of the head, maybe. But then we hold ourselves up with very well-developed senses of satire and irony, if not sarcasm.

There is no such thing as a normal person, only someone you don't know very well yet.
Re: Meanwhile, in America...
I look upon the Monarchy, especially the Queen's offspring and their offspring, with gentle amusement and shake my head with a smile. The exceptions being the Queen and Prince Phillip who have been a splendid example of tact, honour and manners and how to rule with quiet dignity. The other exceptions being, in the main Princes Harry and William who appear to be carrying on Diana's legacy marvelously. Of course being young and human they ain't perfect and have the occasional lapses, but hey....
It's the politicians and greed in commerce and industry that are repugnant.
