It's true I don't get cable or broadcast TV. Most of my hews comes by broadcast radio, print journals (magazines) and internet news subscriptions.

I still don't see this costume thing as a controversy. I was unaware of genitalia costumes, but I am far from shocked, and if someone is doing that to make a point I don't see any controversy. People have animal organs, and mating is a crucial part of life. Tittering about it is for children. All adults recognize "Vive la difference" and if they are wise, they respect it. Also, adults understand and respect the limits of propriety. People love each other in part because of their differences, and respect one another on that account.
