Nairaland / General / Re: Censorship: Good or Bad? by naglaa: 1:33pm On Jun 19, 2010 |
How ironic we're talking about censorship and two words that I used to describe the female within and outside of art were turned into 'unclothed.' brilliant. |

Censorship is crazy. Have you considered who gets the say so in what we do and don't view, and how we view it? The reaction to the object of thought, rather than the object itself are what censorship is based on. This is the case with the naked female within art, it was regulated and contained and transformed into the nude, a controlled contained object, different to the naked sexual 'obscene' woman. Not only does this regulate female sexuality, it also begins the regulation of societies, because the viewers of these two different media cultures are categorized and labeled too. It is through the media where the individual receives definitions of who they are. Through creativity I believe notions that are considered as 'other'- that over step societal margins, can be reintroduced within the mainstream media culture we have grown to use on a daily basis. |
