Feminism started it, religious conservatives certainly propelled it but rampant "mommy"ism and political correctness have played a part as well. Since movies count on the bubblegum set for their profits . . . well . . . you get the picture.It is difficult to think of a confluence of diverse political currents more damaging to the creative arts.
As an aside and to demonstrate possibly all three points but certainly yours and mine, when Conan the Barbarian came out I saw it in the theatre and there was a "mommy" beside me, young son in tow. The movie had already displayed much blood and gore when the scene where the nubile young maiden turns into a witch was shown. There was, you may recall, a bare breast. Whereupon, "mommy" hustled her son out of the theatre saying "You can't trust anything anymore?"
I didn't know whether to cry or laugh my arse off.
