Sir? I'd like you to take the helm, please. I need this man to tear all my clothes off.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

PG-13?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I was going to say PG-13 but it's certainly adult themed while being entirely unporny or gratuitous. Which is, to me, slightly older than all 13 year olds.

Compassionately intolerant

I love pregnancy art and think children should be included in that experience, so I suppose I'd agree with the PG-13 rating. It can use an explanation for the younger viewers.

I don't think PG-13 is actually about 13-year-olds at this point, really.

Descriptive versus prescriptive ratings?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'll put PG-13 and mention what it contains. I figure if Demi Moore et al can make it on the cover of unbagged average magazines it's not that big a deal. I just wonder that the man in the picture might up the rating a bit.

Yeah, it's not more than you see on the beach, skin-wise.

They did bag that Demi cover though! Well many retailers, not across the board. Which, you know, I actually totally did not agree with. It was in no way a pornographic or overly adult image. People are weird.

I think a PG-13 with a mention is fine.

Really I don't understand ratings. Well, I don't understand why so many people think violence and death is just fine and unsexualized nudity is OMG NAUGHTY.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Spaphile launched today. I've heard it described as Groupon for spas in a handful of major cities in the US.
