I completely agree with you. The scene was an integral part of the movie. Maybe I didn't make my point very well in the last post. I continually forget that sarcasm doesn't work very well through the written word. I was arguing that the sex scene DID belong in the movie, for the very reason that it is an important plot device. The reason I was arguing from the censorship standpoint is because the previous argument was the the sex scene should be removed because it wasn't "clean" enough, not because it wasn't important. That just made it seem to me like a censorship thing, and I just wanted to point out the snowball effect. And come to mention it, why are so many people complaining about the girl's nudity, but not the guy's??
