Reading the article Movies may be health hazard for teens i found this information vaguely disturbing:

University of Sydney scientists analysed 87 of the most popular films of the past 20 years, counting 53 sex scenes in almost a third of the movies, yet found only one suggestion of using a condom.

They found eight per cent of the blockbusters included scenes involving cannabis, seven per cent contained episodes of non-injecting illicit drug use, 32 per cent depicted alcohol intoxication and 68 per cent had actors smoking tobacco.

What really disturbs me is that these “scientists” sat there and counted the sex scenes, drug use, drinking and smoking. The highlight of their movie counting “orgy” was someone suggesting they wanted to use a condom.
