Not sure it does suggest otherwise. The article correlates taboo word fluency to general word fluency. Reverting to fuck every third word isn't taboo word fluency. It's just one word. I reckon to claim to be taboo word fluent you at least need to be able to string together a sentence that contains at least 4 different swears and retains its coherency. Let the games begin...

I've just been googling Keira Knightly nude scenes and she hasn't done many, not sure what she is making the fuss about.

Yep, I've got them all saved on my hard drive and there definitely aren't enough!

I read that article the other day and thought good for Kiera. 100% a good idea.

I find gratuitous sex scenes pretty annoying in drama, I think they show too much these days. Hitchcock had a better idea in terms of what to show or not. I don't mind gratuitous swearing in a film if it is integral to the characters, but I never get swearing in films that are otherwise child friendly.

Who amongst us did not shed tears of joy when Gary and Lisa consumated their obvious love in "Team America - World Police" ?

I think a good creampie scene would really make most Marvel or DC output worth watching. Especially if it was with that green chick from that one movie with all of the pop songs that pull in the nostalgic 40 year old about-to-have-a--sean-coronary types.

As a teenager brought up on 80s movies imagine my confusion when I finally got naked with a girl and began shagging in slow motion, whilst pulling really earnest fuck faces.  I thought the closer to the end the slower you went. In the end nothing happened, I lost my boner and she was drier than Ghandi's flip flop. Thanks a bunch Hollywood.

watch the movie '365 days' - movie has no purpose other than the raunchy scenes - Whole movie is nothing but raunchy - How they got away with it is surprising - Crap movie as a story line but the Polish actress has many fine attributes

… and it's all done in the best POSSIBLE taste.

Anyone seen I love Dick on Prime ? .... great show but competing with the Deuce for how much you can get away with sex wise  on TV

The thing that annoys me most about raunchy scenes in films is their lack of realism.

Rarely do the realities of sex ever come out in a love scene.  There's no awkward fumbling, no damnit-I-don't-have-a-condom moment, she never say's "careful, that's the wrong hole!", or "have you finished already?" and there's never any acknowledgement of the mess or wet patch afterwards - they just get up, throw on their clothes and carry on as normal.

It's all too sanitised and perfect.

Yup, you never see any of the women reaching for a wad of tissues, or running to the bog to drain their fish tank.

Keira Knightly is too angular to be sexy, a bit like romping with a coathanger. Did I say "romping"? hehe I never use that word.

I'm in no doubt that she'd be all over me of course.

Or the bloke calling out "don't drip on the carpet" as she leaves the room.

Yep and teenager has just had unprotected sex, comes home to parents and for some reason does not smell of sex and raises no suspicion.

you can avoid that one by never using johnnies.
