The FCC rejected 36 indecency complaints by the Parents Television Council. Among the PTC objections, shows with "scenes in which male characters talk about kissing men and female characters talk about kissing women." Jeff Jarvis's Buzz Machine details all 36 of them, noting:
In the first set of rulings, the FCC seems to bravely decides that "dick" in various forms is OK. Ditto ass, penis, vaginal, nutsack, and a three-way. In the second set, they add the words hell and damn -- as if they were ever in contention as indecent and blaspamous -- as well as breast, nipples, can, pissed, crap, bastard, and bitch. It's the liberalization of America, I tell you, it's the second damned sexual revolution!
