I've seen the pictures - and I don't see why the fuss. It's a boob,
with an interesting metal nipple adornment. Kids can see more
than that on their own prime time entertainment.

I'm with you. We didn't watch it,but we heard about it.
Sharon........Don't think of it as getting hot flashes.
Think of it as your inner child playing with matches.

game's taking place (not into sports). So *that's* what some of my kids
were talking about when they walked in to the room today. It was obvious
that whatever it was was risqué, but I didn't ask them to give me details.

"finale", DH said something about seeing Janet's breast with a question mark
like he wasn't sure if he saw what he thought he did. Sounded like a very
brief exposure.

I saw the pics at drudge too. I don't consider a bared breast as nudity.
Bare boobs may not be allowed, but some of what passes for "clothing" is
much closer to nudity than Janet's brief flash. I think she was just trying
to get people's minds off of why she was wearing that dumb looking white
train off her butt.

I don't have a big problem with the flashing of boob. I think for most the
problem was not expecting the overtly sexual halftime show. Lots of families
watch this game with their kids and some are pretty young. I just think it
was not what
every parent wants to address to an eight year old. "Hey Mom why did he tear
her top off, and what's that shiny thing on her boob? " Even today I don't
think I could completely explain pierced nipples, I'm just so not into pain!
When I sent mine off to grade school for the first time I sat them down and
explained the basics of sex and that was so they didn't get filled with a
bunch of misinformation about sex on the bus ride to school. It was all they
wanted and probably more.CBS made a big mistake thinking sex sells
everything. Just because TV shows flood the airwaves with sex doesn't mean
kids want to be bombarded with it. Me personally, run a warning and let the
family decide if they want to watch. I take more issue with the sexual
aggressiveness of the halftime show towards women It's hard to teach our
young sons to be respectful of women when their pop idols are not. Was it an
accident?? Have you ever seen a cup tear off of your bustier like that..I
can hardly get a tag to tear off. I guess this just gets the feminist
hackles up. I do hate to sound like a big old prude but I've watched enough
MTV video's lately to really start to worry about what messages the kids are
getting about their bodies and sex and accomplishment.
OK I'm off the soap box. Got to go get some porn and a big old bottle of
ripple and see if I can pick up some tight bun young fun......I learned it
all on TV : )

>Argh. Sick to death of the entertainment industry these days.....
I agree with this! But I really think the "exposure" was an accident. I
believe that Justin ripped off more than was intended. However, even if that
hadn't happened, what I saw was trash. An awful lot of it is just trash.

I only watched the end of the game, didn't see the breast live, only later
pics.
Jackson and Timberlake sure pre-empted the superbowl. I'd bet more people
are talking about the breast than about the game.
IMO, showing a little flesh wasn't the problem. It was tacky and in poor
taste (and you'd expect anything else from JJ and an MTV production?), but
I see more flesh at award shows like the Oscars and on the beach and even
at malls. Watch a documentary on "primative societies" such as Papua New
Guinea and you will see a lot more breasts displayed than the brief glimpse
you got of JJ's (because women there don't cover their tops).
I think the problem is more in the media circus that followed the incident.
As usual. I'd bet that there are far more kids aware that JJ's breast
was bared today than there were Sunday afternoon, and a lot more kids
searching the web for a picture than if the incident had been ignored.
And someone mentioned that the women in the acts were portrayed as sexual
objects; that's much more of a problem, IMO. (Though no surprise.)

After seeing it on the news last night, I don;t for one second believe it
was accidental. I also don't believe that it went farther than planned; I
think went exactly as planned. Otherwise, what was the sun pasty thingy
doing on her boob? She wears it all of the time, not when expecting it'll
be seen?? And the bustier cup ripped off so easily, all of the way over,
accidentally? Yeah, right. Never mind the matching song lyrics.

I am wondering, why they showed the boob but censored the streaker which might
have been more entertaining, at least to some of the female portion of the
audience, than viewing the boob. Kathy

You don't sound like a prude at all. I feel the same way about getting
porn in my e-mail. I like porn in its place, but that place is not while
I'm eating breakfast, thankyouverymuch. And it's not while I'm watching
sports with my grandson. That is, if I watched sports and if I had a
grandson. :-)
Jackson may have thought she was doing something to liberate tv, but it's
up to the parent to decide if their child sees naked people, not any member
of the Jackson family.

I think the Jackson family has a sort of warped idea of what children should
see. ;)

All around the Superbowl stage
Timberlake pursued her.
He reached across and gave her a pull...
POP goes the hooter!
Now they say it was a mistake,
He didn't mean to be-nude her.
The moment he sang, "You'll be undressed",
POP goes the hooter!
Janet looks like Michael, they say,
It’s a wonder he's not sued her.
The only way to tell them apart...
POP goes the hooter!

ROFLMAO!!! No, no more verses, my creative juices are running a little dry

If you look really closely at the enlarged picture, you can see that the
sunburst is held in place by a metal rod that pierces her nipple.
Ouchie!
