    Watershed call for 'raunchy' videos

    Music videos which are "sexually provocative" should be banned before the watershed, a Home Office commissioned report has said.

    The study, by psychologist Dr Linda Papadopoulos, warned children were being damaged by exposure to sexual and violent images and lyrics on TV.

    She said music videos were sexualising girls at a young age and encouraging them to aspire to an unhealthy ideal - but unlike other sexual content were not banned before 9pm.

    As well as music videos, the report points to greater exposure of children to sexual and violent content from a younger age - through magazines, advertising, the internet and video games.

    Cunny, where do you begin with this. Kids will go looking for this stuff (the same as we did) and find it through a network of school whispers. On the DVD front the rental shops rarely ask for i.d. from minors. I witnessed this with my own kid but I decided that the content was not of a sick nature and the sexual element was nothing more than,maybe, education in itself. And last but not least:Where do you stop?
