Society's ideas about what's good and what's bad shift so drastically from generation to generation. Long before my time, rock and roll was considered to be bad: Elvis Presley was only shown on the Ed Sullivan Show from the waist up, because the way he shook his hips was considered to be too provocative. Today, you can see nearly naked young people drunk in a hot tub together on the Real World.
It makes me wonder how far things will go, in my lifetime. How many "bad" things will society deem acceptable in the name of entertainment? Or, will there be a return to more conservative values?
