Cancel Culture. Time to Cancel Scrubs?

[Hanoi_Jane00]

In this scenario Elliott shows her boobs to an underage boy, obviously writer Zaff Braff's chauvinistic sense of humour where a woman's worth even if she is a doctor is with her sexuality. Now imagine the situation was reversed and JD flashed his genitals at a sick little girl in hospital what would be the result? Well the episode would rightly be banned and in the show JD would be struck off the medical register and put on a sex offender register and rightly so.

I strongly oppose cancel culture. It opens the door for anyone to cancel anything.
The gag in the episode was a joke. It was a JOKE. Comedy has been suffering for years because of SJW, PC snowflakes. Mel Brooks has said that movies like Blazing Saddles couldn't be made today because of this crap.

There was a great gag in Young Frankenstein in which in which the doctor, Igor and Inga walk up to the castle and the doctor sees the giant, ornate door knockers. In awe, he says "Those are some knockers!" Inga, who was not paying attention, hears him, looks down at herself, and says "Why sank you." Oh how sexist!

The fact that men are inspired by women's breasts is not sexist. If women were universally inspired by the sight of men's flaccid penises, I wouldn't call that sexist, either.

I'm in favor of annoying the PC crowd as much as absolutely possible. If they get triggered and have to retreat to their "safe spaces", it's a blessing to humanity.

SO MUCH is framed by the context. Little girls are every bit as curious as little boys... the ADULT hypocritical "paragons-of-Virtue' conveniently forget those 'naughty' childhood games of 'playing doctor' and the risque' versions of 'Truth or Dare'.
The scenario could be innocently 'framed' as a curious female innocently asking her Pediatrician adult physical-authority figure to show her non-contact flashing 'his goods'.

Prudes would become rightfully incensed that their DELIBERATE promulgation of THEIR failure to provide timely in-home sexual education through prolonging illusory naivete would be highlighted and held up to public disclosure!

They’re very different situations. A teen boy is less likely to be damaged by a woman flashing him her boobs than the reverse. I haven’t actually seen the episode, but I suspect the actual text strengthens my argument (did the boy in the episode ask her to flash him or in some way imply that seeing a woman’s boobs is his lifelong dream?).

[magiusX26]

i vaugely remember the episode, the boy was requesting it and if i recall correctly mid to late teens not like some 8 or 9 year old as OP implies.

[Gwenhwyfar]

@magiusX26 in that case I have no problem with it

[magiusX26]

i watched the clip. he's 13 and definitely requesting it.

[Gwenhwyfar]

@magiusX26 13. Hmm. A little iffy but in the long run I still think she did the right thing giving him a good memory to wank over.

[magiusX26]

more of a dieing wish kind of thing. it was an alt thing because his make a wish (a visit from the rock) didn't happen.(he couldnt make it) the two docs were offering him "what ever in the world he wanted" instead. his reply was "boobs" "real live on a cute girl". the JD mentioned to her that she's cute. a slight argue/discuss as they step into dr lounge. then next scene she decides to let him see them on her own. brings his white cell count up.

[Gwenhwyfar]

@magiusX26 that sounds really awesome and wholesome

[magiusX26]

you should watch the clip. its not just about the boy seeing them. thats the start of the epuside's premise that boobs can heal. and if course keep in mind the show is a med dramedi.

[Gwenhwyfar]

@magiusX26 okay 😊

[magiusX26]

i actually liked the show once i fave it a shot, years ago. on a side note. one of the character dances in fortnite actually was stolen from an episide of scrubs.

[magiusX26]

https://youtu.be/Pgd8dwA5EEM

the actor who does the dance was the one who made up the dance for that episode and in an interview later was highly pissed it was stolen. they never asked him or anyone from the show (i think) for permission. if i recall he now refuses to do the dance when asked by fans. the interview was sort of a comicon fans panel thing.

Society views breasts differently to genitals. You wouldn't bat an eyelid at a topless female sunbather on a beach but some guy tanning his dick is a different matter.

[Sevenpointfive]

is tanning a dick a thing? does the D need vitamin D?

[Hanoi_Jane00]

@Sevenpointfive getting the D while getting the D

[Jamie05rhs]

@Hanoi_Jane00 THAT was funny.

[Screenwriter]

Boobs are NOT sexual organs. They are secondary sex characteristics that in American society are oversexualized.
If Elliot flashed her VAGINA that would be equivalent to flashing a penis. Zach Braff's flashing his CHEST is equivalent to her flashing her boobs, though men's bodies are NEVER hypersexualized like women's for some reason.
I guess it's sexism.

[harvest]

Are you shitting me? Are you clinically insane?
STAY AWAY FROM SCRUBS.
Cancel culture is a cancer of XXI century. Jump off of a cliff and die :)

[loves2learn]

I agree and disagree. Boobies are very different from a penis. Really the reason they are here is to feed babies.

[Hanoi_Jane00]

OK if jd exposed his male bosoms to a nine year old girl?

[loves2learn]

Not a bad thing. She could see that at the beach.

[Hanoi_Jane00]

I guess I just think its wrong a grown adult trying to arouse sexually a minor.

[loves2learn]

Would a minor be aroused by worthless male nipples? Lol. As someone who breastfed 2 babies, and I had my titties out a lot, babies are hungry. I just looked at my husband like why do you even have nipples? They don’t do anything!!!

[Chris_u006]

We need more women like @loves2learn and less like @hanoi_jane00 Sure I do get the concern with the children/adult thing and all, but cancel culture ain't the solution @hanoi_jane00 Getting actual pedophiles and rapists behind bars is the more fair solution honestly. @hanoi_jane00 If you are so concerned about this, stand on the fucking barricades and protest or something else. Actions means waaaay more than words online.

[loves2learn]

Awww. Thank you @chris_u006 🥰

[joeldalton]

They’re also secondary sexual characteristics.

[loves2learn]

@joeldalton - accurate. Very good point.

[OlderAndWiser]

That would be he logic of cancel culture.

[MCheetah]

No. The people who are joking about this need to have a sense of humor about things, especially things long before the hyper-oversensitivity that SJW's have, nowadays. And boobs and dick are not the same comparison. And yes, 13 year olds had access to internet porn back in the 2000's, so they weren't some delicate little angels with hearts as pure as snow.

Cancel Culture is bullsh*t, in general.

[Catlover1999]

Why don’t we cancel everything including progressive lefty content because eventually everything will be considered problematic.

[Hanoi_Jane00]

"including progressive lefty " ie scrubs

[AndyOh]

Seriously... when does the cancel culture cancel itself?
Tired of everytime someone does something, everyone looks at it to see if someone might get offended. For crying out loud, grow a backbone!

[NathanDavis]

Boobs are not genitals, though.

[TheLittleInnocent]

Canceling is dumb and ineffective. Most people get cancelled and then their back on the scene in a few weeks or months. And they never even cancel the right people.

[Jjpayne]

There are so many things that act like that, take the office for example "that's what she said" and that's just the office. There are many shows that use "sexual humor" I think maybe stopping it from happening in future shows should be a goal. But sexual moments could dismantle many shows including seinfeld and friends. Even the big bang theory... I guess the question is, how far does cancel culture want to go and how many people in society want to go that far...

[Birdlegs]

A girls titties and a penis are completely different both men and women could walk around shirtless if they wanted to. It’s not a big deal

[Sevenpointfive]

the kid was dead. what do you think the "make a wish foundation really is"? this happens

[BeenThereLovedIt]

This is hyperspasmic bs. I prefer the hot for teacher video by VH.

Are you triggered by that too?

[Hanoi_Jane00]

The Adam Sandler show?

[Bhavin2184]

May be...

[Stoner710]

No, I don’t want the show my self but no, if anything we should cancel Carl Marx and Friedrich Engels. In my experience if the philosophy comes from Germany it’s terrible

[sensible27]

I didn't watch the video but any s*xual thing with a minor just seems odd.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I agree... If an underage girl flashed her boobs to a much older man he would get in trouble and possibly arrested and nothing would happen to her but you let an older woman in her 20's flash her boobs to an underage male nothing would happen I'm just saying this not meant to offend females but we all know in these instances males are the main target about 90 %

[LillKrull]

I honestly believe that cancel culture is stupid.

If you believe in it, you're no better than christian moms and Tipper Gore in the 80s wanting to ban metal because they deemed it as a way for satan to recruit people, honestly.

If you don't like something, you're free to go watch something else, but don't ruin shit for others, because you're too narrowminded.

[Phoenix98]

Or and here's a thought instead of canceling everything people could you know stop being little pussies and being triggered by literally everything on the planet.

Just because you don't like something doesn't mean it needs to be erased from existence and disappear.

I strongly oppose cancel culture I think it's one of the most stupidest things ever.

[Josh4206]

If you don't like it, change the channel. Stop ruining everything for everyone else.

[Josh4206]

Nothing should ever be canceled, if you don't like it, don't buy it. If you don't want to watch it, don't watch it. I dont care what the beliefs are of the program it shouldn't be cancelled.

[Hanoi_Jane00]

The Hitler show?
