We are not advocating censorship or a ban. The Web site is equally entitled to freedom of expression, but the viewer should be given a warning that the material may be offensive and should not be used in a negative way. Perhaps they are trying to use irony and sarcasm to get the point across that date rape can be prevented if women take the tips given to budding date rapists, and use them as precautions to prevent rape. Disclaimers should state that the tips are meant to be cautions to women rather than encouragement to potential rapists. Swift's literary skills and the improbability of platters of roasted babies got the point across.
Times are different.
The entertainment media have reduced the shock factor in us. Blood and gore are laughable props and murder and rape are no longer crimes against human beings. The young, the gullible and the mentally unstable viewers need guidance. They need to be taught that what they are seeing is not real. All rights reserved.
