It's not the first "muffin" reference.

I wonder when things changed. Was it Elvis's hips or Madonna's writhing around in "Like a Virgin". Cable television- MTV - provided the venue and because it was a subscription service, they could pretty much push their own envelope.

Then there was Michael Jackson's patented "crotch grab" which his sister, Janet, quickly infringed on. (Makes you wonder about that Superbowl half-time nipple "accident".)

Our acceptance and attitudes towards sex and decency keep changing. How far can they be pushed? I guess the extreme would be non-stop porn on all the major networks and everyone would be having sex in the streets-

"why don't we do it in the road...".
