18Originally posted by DeadPoet:As teenagers, do u think it is necessary for the government to limit the age to 21 to watch R(A) movie?
If no, at what age do u think it is okay to watch R(A) movie? 16? 18?
yes in a way its true. but they cant realli control the internet while they can control the media. so o cos they will control wat they can.Originally posted by bismarck:i feel this age limit is an excuse. most teens are already exposed to porn thru the net. furthermore it's free...btw quite an number of them are already sex and getting pregnant so well before they even reach 16
i think if u ask them for their personal views (without taking into account of society and such) they r most likely going to say no.Originally posted by DeadPoet:As teenagers, do u think it is necessary for the government to limit the age to 21 to watch R(A) movie?

RA films mostly niche market mah.Originally posted by DeadPoet:Another thing I donÂ’t get it is why neighbourhood cinemas cannot screen R(A) shows. Most ppl watching R(A) movie in town are from neighbourhood HDBs, so what is the logic?
Protect us from sex, violence, etc? Give me a break.
one of the thing abt giving classification is so tt more ppl can watch. but one of the conditions is they wont be shown in the neighbourhoods, cos 1. publicity material such as posters may be objectionable 2. less accessible to those who these shows r not meant for.Originally posted by DeadPoet:Another thing I donÂ’t get it is why neighbourhood cinemas cannot screen R(A) shows.

hmm truth. but they are still they type of innocent lots who don really understand the meaning and relation of true love and sexual intercourse. Some are even tricked into it as it can be seen from the daily newspaper...Originally posted by bismarck:which hole have u been hiding..just kidding..i mean there are ppl having sex at 13,14...

Like it was said....R(A) does not mean sexually explicit material it can also infer extreme violence,strong language and even extreme thinking.The rating is simply to shield mainstream viewers from them.For me? i think it should be...21 or after you have started NS or military service,police or civil defence.In the meantime i forsee alot more shows getting the M18 rating while R(A) will be reserved for extreme case.Maybe even show that were previously banned.The government has already bent to pressure and made an M18 so let's take advantage of thatOriginally posted by `wAwA`:i rem reading the news abt some sec sch students talkin with wad minister of parliament regarding such issues.
Why a 16 yr old girl can have sex legally
and not watch RA shows instead..
i personally feel that 18 is the right age.
Well 18, u can drink, smoke, take car license..
These are violent stuff (if u ppl think it negatively)
So wats the prob in not implementing a 18 age cut?
