Well, this is an issue that relates primarily to the adopted limits of censorship. As mentioned, a whole other discussion altogether.

As far as it relates to the objectification, and degredation of women, I also think that in itself is a debateable issue due to reasons I shan't discuss for fear of being the catalyst for a new debate and tarnishing the integrity of this thread.

I am personally neither offended, nor highly amused (I'll admit to being slightly amused ) by those images, and whatever position this forum chooses to hold on the issue would not make much of a difference to me. I am confident in my principles enough to make my own choices on how I allow these things to affect me.

However, the difference between the two issues is that while understandably offensive such images may be to some, it is an issue that treads in the waters of principles and morals; while street racing is an issue that challenges the mortality of the participant and non-participants alike. It's a dangerous game that deserves the blow of the censorship sword if but one blow was to be delivered.
