For those who think Playboy, etc., are appropriate reading material during a flight, I would ask a question: would you be distressed if, sitting next to me, I opened up Blueboy?</font>
Distressed? No. ... Disinterested? Yes.
I really think it would be nice if Americans (and the Taliban and whoever else it applies to) weren't so obsessed with their "right" of not seeing various things which they've seen before anyhow. Nobody's forcing you to watch.
As for kids, most will either be too young to be interested or have seen it all before, quite apart from the fact that it's their parents' responsibility to keep an eye out for what they watch, not the rest of the world's.
That's one advantage of flying, say, SQ. With personal video, the kids can watch bare tits on their own screen instead of having to look over someone else's shoulder at a magazine.
