Moralists and boobs

Why is it that when the moralists get going about something they consider indecent they always just end up putting it in the spotlight? I mean, look at the whole Bill Clinton - Monica Lewinsky thing where they insisted on dragging out every sexual detail for public consumption so your basic family newspaper was printing the equivalent content of a Penthouse Forum letter. And was it really their intention that parents be forced to have to explain the concept of oral sex to young children?

Now we have Janet Jackson’s 1-second-long breast exposure that’s gotten way more than its 15 minutes of fame. I hesitate to add to that, but Lance Arthur has a great post that puts it all in perspective. See Ten Things: Tits (via All About George). Be sure also to see #10: Breasts, Tits or Jugs? A Primer along with its comments - pretty funny.
