Instead of providing useful information, ratings and labels encourage artists who want to reach the broadest possible audience to censor their own works in advance to avoid restrictive classifications. By promoting this self-censorship rating and labeling systems act as filters between us and the artist. Any involvement by the government in deciding which ideas are fit for public consumption robs you of your constitutional right to make that decision for yourself. Nudity is being edited out of films by cable television stations, paintings of nudes are being excluded from art exhibits and theatrical works that include nudity have been banned, or altered, in localities around the country. Artists are feeling pressure from government funding agencies to steer clear of art that deals with issues of gender and sexuality.
Censorship is an infectious disease.
The creative spirit must be free. When it is not, society suffers. Sorry, we're unable to assist non-members.
