Movies condone drugs and unsafe sex
BNE: Researchers have blamed Hollywood movies for an increase in unsafe sex and
drug use. A team from two Australian universities analyzed sex and drug scenes in the
most popular movies of the last 20 years. The team found almost no scenes in which
actors talked about sexually transmitted diseases, AIDS or birth control. The report
said many movies showed drugs as a normal way to relax. Lead researcher Dr.
Hasantha Gunasekera warned:  The social norm being presented is concerning
[because of] the HIV and illicit drug pandemics in developing and industrialized
countries.
The researchers reported the James Bond movie Die Another Day and the thriller
Basic Instinct, in particular, gave people the wrong message about unsafe sex. Both
movies contained many scenes of unprotected sex with new partners, without condoms
or talk about AIDS or unwanted pregnancies. The study also found there were few
movie scenes showing the dangers of drugs. Dr. Gunasekera suggested Hollywood
should be more responsible when it shows behavior that is seen and copied by billions
of people around the world.
