Any article that makes a number of factual claims and only after several paragraphs inserts a sentence to the effect of "This is not a universal thing and is different depending who you talk to and where you are" needs to be totally rewritten. If nothing else the point that "this is not a universal thing" needs to go at the very front of the article.
Beyond that this article sounds a lot like someone is describing an urban legend as if it were fact.
Imma look into this and if no one else wants to take on the rewrite I'll do that. (I'll probably delete 80% of the material.) Hmoulding ( talk) 14:57, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
Has anyone else seen this? I'm not sure why the expanded version of the list isn't allowed in this article. https://unicornbooty.com/the-new-hanky-code-film-art-comedy/ -- RThompson82 ( talk) 00:15, 9 May 2017 (UTC)
