Fifty Shades of Grey is still a smutty book, even if you cover up the selected naughty words.

"He plunged his pulsating --------- into her quivering moist ---------, and they -------- all night, then she -------- his ------- until the sun came up."

Does that REALLY make it somehow better?

The whole thing strikes me as morally questionable, as if the "good" people who use it are trying to trick someone (themselves? God?). Or is it so you can give your kid "American Psycho" and still feel like a good parent?

"Yeah, I read 'Naked Came the Stranger' but I covered up the bad words. See you at church Grandma!"

I certainly don't feel like I'm trying to trick someone. I watched Saving Private Ryan as a teen. As an adult, I have resolved to avoid rated R movies. However, I enjoyed Private Ryan and wanted to see it again. Is it horrible that I am able to avoid the worst words, the sexual talk, and the worst violence, and instead enjoy a PG-13 version of the movie? I'm not trying to trick anyone. I'm just trying to watch a movie I enjoy while avoiding certain things that would make it less enjoyable for me.
