Ohhhhhh......chase me with cleavage? Elmo thought you say Cleaver!
I'm impressed that line is from Seinfeld, as I'm not a TV watcher, but it zeros in on the idea I was trying to put across.
I once had to explain my views on admiring feminine beauty to my wife and sister-in-law at the same time.
I explained that it is possible to examine, enjoy, study and admire every flower in a garden without necessarily finding
that it follows that you must imagine rolling in the flowers.
They may not have been making Elmo any older than he seems, 4 or 5 years old.
I confess there were times when I was 5, and Julie Newar was squirming around as Catwoman, that my 5 year old body
responded in a way I didn't understand, but would have been embarrassed if such were in a one-to-one situation.
I think maybe Elmo ran off because something about breasts "inspired" him in a new way "for him", and he "fruk right on out..."
So in a perverse way, I might agree this should have been pulled.... Elmo should have either,
1. Behaved "normally" as in, breasts are not acknowledged in any way.
2. been able to handle it, even if cleavage was somehow acknowledged.
3. Ready to try to out-do her at dress-up (with or without acknowledgement of breast awareness)
I find myself in an odd point of being conservative for a progressive reason.
I think these are odd moments of life's mobius strip paths, like when Pat Robertson and the Anarchists agreed on talking points as happened a few years at an IMF conference in the NW ...Seattle?

Seriously....he ran away as part of the bit that the song was getting at--he was changing his mind and being silly about wanting to play one minute and not the next.

While the rest of us was watching Katie's jiggle.
What "jiggle"? She's flat-chested! :

Go back and watch the video.
Well I guess Sesame Street Workshop didn't want all this rowdy talk on their forums? They just knew it would be a topic of discussion among the adults. ;D
Skynet74 said:Some parents are way to over protective. It's ridiculous that anyone even complained over an innocent video. Secondly... Katy Perry looked flat on Sesame Street. That dress killed off any sense that she even has boobs. Thankfully Saturday Night Live fixed that problem.
I agree. The Sesame Street demographic is what, in diapers? The kids have no clue as to what they are looking at. Just a girl in a veil playing with Elmo. Way too many uptight adults these days that are looking for reasons to be offended.
I already have. Nothing there. She "jiggled" in the SNL spoof of the whole thing, but I think at least some of that had to be padding. :Bengalsfan said:Go back and watch the video.firepoint525 said:What "jiggle"? She's flat-chested! :
At any rate, why are we even still discussing this a week later? Slow news week? At any rate, the "censorship" of Sesame Street obviously backfired on them. More people have seen this footage than ever would have otherwise. Even on shows like Inside Edition that showed the footage, they didn't use the usual "red ribbons" that they usually use to cover up the "naughty bits," sometimes when there isn't even anything to cover up! :
