I've noticed the opposite, actually. When a woman seduces a underaged male, I sometimes see stifled giggles of approval from other men. In fact, some dudebro on the site recently earned a pink triangle for passionately defending that happening.I doubt it. Manosphere guys only apply the 'go after teens' copes to men, women who do it are always called hags preying on innocent boys. Something something 14 year old girls are at peak fertility, muh nature, etc. Nick however may only take issue if the woman in question is fat.
It's when the genders are reversed, the pitchforks really come out.
To be clear, they are both wrong, but Nick seems to be flirting with the one that would gain him the maximum amount of flak.
Salo has been banned in a number of regions. The thing is that, in the U.S. at least, it's hard to ban something like Salo unless you can show (among other things) it completely lacks any artistic, literary, political, or scientific value. Caligula passed the last prong of the Miller Test because "Roman politics." In the case of Salo, the director (a literal Communist) was supposedly using it as a vehicle to criticize fascism and consumerism, or some shit.I mean, 'Caligula' was on thing, but some of these titles just go beyond that I am shocked there has been no investigation into these directors...
Doubtful Nick watched it for that though. I don't know anybody that did. Its notoriety seems to come from the shock value. The film is garbage. I don't advocate it be banned, but I would raise an eyebrow towards anybody that says they like it.
Incidentally, Salo was director's Pier Paolo Pasolini's last film because he was brutally murdered a couple of weeks after it was finished.
