Download or read book American Taboo written by Lauren Rosewarne and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-08-13 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's often-unspoken morality codes make many topics taboo in "the land of the free." This book analyzes hundreds of popular culture examples to expose how the media both avoids and alludes to how we derive pleasure from our bodies. Flatulence ... male nudity ... abortion ... masturbation: these are just a few of the taboo topics in the United States. What do culturally enforced silences about certain subjects say about our societyand our latent fears? This work provides a broad yet detailed overview of popular culture's most avoided topics to explain why they remain off-limits and examines how they are presented in contemporary mediaor, in many cases, delicately explored using euphemism and innuendo. The author offers fascinating, in-depth analysis of the meaning behind these portrayals of a variety of both mundane and provocative taboos, and identifies how new television programs, films, and advertising campaigns intentionally violate longstanding cultural taboos to gain an edge in the marketplace.

Download or read book Modern Etiquettes for Girls written by Margaret Frankl and published by Epitome Books. This book was released on with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Etiquette has always meant good manners and courtesy. But for a girl like you it means even more. It could be defined as intuition, empathy, thoughtfulness, self-confidence and poise. It is knowing what to do with your male roommate when your mother comes to visit, or knowing how to defend yourself against men who want you more than you want them. It is knowing when to honour traditional rules and when to ignore them. Etiquette can never be a static style of behaviour. It evolves, always. But many people just do not acknowledge the changes. Nobody tells you how to keep pace with the changes. This book does. It presents correct procedures for the formal ceremonies of life, etiquette of living with a man, how to survive infidelity, what to do when you get pregnant but did not mean to, guidelines for office romance, art of looking beautiful, how to make friends, and much more.
Download or read book Cannibal Error written by David Kerekes and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2024-03-07 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A social history of the ‘video nasty’. In the early 1980s, video technology forever changed the face of home entertainment. The videocassette – a handy-sized cartridge of magnetic tape inside a plastic shell – domesticated cinema as families across Britain began to consume films in an entirely new way. Demand was high and the result was a video gold rush, with video rental outlets appearing on every high street almost overnight. Without moderation their shelves filled with all manner of films depicting unbridled sex and violence. A backlash was inevitable. Video was soon perceived as a threat to society, a view neatly summed up in the term ‘video nasties’. CANNIBAL ERROR chronicles the phenomenal rise of video culture through a tumultuous decade, its impact and its aftermath. Based on extensive research and interviews, the authors provide a first-hand account of Britain in the 1980s, when video became a scapegoat for a variety of social ills. It examines the confusion spawned by the Video Recordings Act 1984, the subsequent witch hunt that culminated in police raids and arrests, and offers insightful commentary on many contentious and ‘banned’ films that were cited by the media as influential factors in several murder cases. It also investigates the cottage industry in illicit films that developed as a direct result of the ‘video nasty’ clampdown. CANNIBAL ERROR, a revised and reworked edition of SEE NO EVIL (2000), is an exhaustive and startling overview of Britain’s ‘video nasty’ panic, the ramifications of which are still felt today.
