Food for thought

So today in class we talked about how our culture is seen as conservative. I think that our culture is not so conservative as we come off to be. Maybe compared to other nations we are considered conservative. For example, in Europe there are advertisements with models having half an ass cheek hanging out. Also, Europe seems to be more comfortable in the nude. Got to any nude beach in Europe and you'd understand. If you were to go to a nude beach here, its probably vacant because of what we've been taught. Our conservative nature is a result of past generations. Each day our culture erotisizes men and women through ads and yet we're considered to be conservative. Maybe this description of our culture is also a result of American tendencies to be so stubborn when it comes to introducing new ideas. Instead of evolving, we choose to stay stuck in ways that don't fit in this time period anymore.
