Actually, when evaluating pictoral art the effect it has on the viewer is precisely how something is determined to be obscene. Venus de milo in a clam shell doesn't generally inspire sexual feelings. Kids jumping up and down clowning imitations of their parents and other adults wont cause a sexual response in adults unless the person is a pedophile.

Now clearly little miss cyrus is selling her sexuality. Overtly. Just a little strip if cloth makes it not obscene.

I have purposely forced myself to watch a couple of youtubes of the young lady. Not my cup of tea. The banning of MC clearly is a matter of double standard. Its just that such double standards dont surprise me when i see them, nor the reactions of people who try to deny them. Not you, Dv8. General observation.

I have purposely forced myself to watch a couple of her videos too! ;)

ticket prices and ticket sales

So there was the Shakira scandal of a few years ago. She charged historically high prices for a show that didn't last as long as the trip from Los Rios to the venue.

Back to Miley, her top ticket price was something like $15,000! Of course, most of the ticket were selling for amounts closer to 1/10 that amount. The stadium is very big for a city the size of Santo Domingo - - when the attraction is not baseball or a top Latin act. She could have sold out a week of shows if she alternated opening and closing for Juan Luis Guerra and lowered the top ticket price, but why would she when she has nothing to gain from doing it?


There has been much speculation on radio talk shows that it was a case of tickets not selling as expected.

Ummmm, isn't the DR all about Sex and Violence?! All this morals stuff is getting really old, I have never seen such horrible morals than in this Country!

Damn I LOVE Miley!!

You are right on point Harley, but the politicians and the church still run the country so this is how they keep their hold on power. Even songs with suggestive lyrics are banned.

the kids see it as being acceptable because their mothers think it is so endearing.

You're soooo right. And seeing a naked teenager riding a ball on tv singing and gaining fame from doing so has absolutely nothing to do with it..

Oh Brother. It is lack of overall parenting skills and not the fault of those making a career out of entertainment. Do you think the rise in openly gay men is down to Men2Men[video=youtube;tZLHgcmBaRg]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZLHgcmBaRg[/video]

i think i posted this before, but here goes, once more. i was at a caseta on the malecon one day, and two twenty-somethings came in with their kids, a boy and a girl. they were probably 7 years old. the place was packed. the girl leaned up against the bar area, and the boy proceeded to give her a serious dry hump, replete with some ill-intentioned pelvic thrusts. the mothers were both dying with laughter. at one point, the mother of the little boy yelled at him;

give it to her hard. if you break it, i will pay for it.

and we worry about Miley Cyrus.

Reminds of a few years ago.

I was standing in line in the supermarket and this young girl of no more than 7 years ago was singing:

" I do not need no five minute man" lol

I am pretty sure she did not know what exactly the words meant. hahahahahahaha
