  For all those Sesame Street viewers who were breast-feeding just a few years ago, or might still be, the sight of Katy Perry’s boobs probably reminded them of how wonderful breasts are.

  There is nothing “dirty” about a woman’s breasts, and if all the childrens’ programming on PBS featured topless women then maybe the children would grow up with fewer neuroses.

  Everyone who polled in “What was she thinking?” is an ignoramus. I’m quite sure that she, herself did not pull that outfit out of her closet and say “Yes, I want millions of children to see me wear this on sesame street”. Katy Perry probably had little to no control over what she would be wearing on the show.

  Right, because all those children didn’t SUCK on their mother’s breasts. They exist, they are a part of a woman’s anatomy. People need to get over it.

  All of that aside – it is really an unattractive dress!

  That is a wonderful gallery of Christine O’Donnell faces she’s making, there.

  Long before “Sesame Street” was purchased (with the Muppets) by the hypocritical “Time Warner Disney AOL (etc)” they were the only place that kids could see *REALITY* – - a world they could identify with, which matched their experiences…and on educational television. It taught them to be accepting of the things that were around them, instead of being bigots. There were black and brown skinned people, and blind and deaf people and those in wheel chair…and an old shop-keeper (far older than other kids characters). Here we are in the 21st century, and we have “Sesame Street” censoring images of Katy Perry (due to the emotional instabiloity of some parents) – with Perry wearing more clothing over her bust that Queen Elizabeth I did for most of her public life (see also the fashion of “Decollete Gowns” and “”Extreme Decollete Gowns”, which were extremely common on women all over Europe from roughly 1400 to 1780). In the current era of reality censorship, very little of what women wore in history is OK to show to ANYONE (let alone kids). Even museums & libraries (who will show “artistic nudity” still censor the reality of historical fashion, wishing not to shock the public (and lose donations from prigs).

  Anyone who cannot deal with the truth of history, or the truth of what people wear on the streets of out cities (right now or in the past) should not be in the business of educating kids. In Australia there is a kids TV show call “PLAYSCHOOL: with a segment on how “everybody eats”. It has a comely young mother who is sitting on a couch with her top down, both breasts exposed, while feeding her young infant at one breast (an older child plays in the room). None of this is culturally shocking. ASince moveing there I have seen women (foreign migrants and locals) feeding their infants at their breasts in a very obvious (unconcealed) manner, while shopping at the supermarket….and Sesame Street can’t even cope with what normal women wear when out on the town in public (and HAVE been wearing for quite a long time). Sad really.

  , what people wore) . and a massive number of paintings form that era are still “fig leafed” with body parts painted over in various ways/
