‘I think people are too confused to know whether it’s offensive or not’

April 16, 2012 By Kathy Shaidle

HBO’s irreverent mockumentary “Angry Boys” is under fire for combining child actors and phallic humor, including one scene in the series’ 12th episode, where a little girl drinks from a water bottle shaped like a giant, pink penis.

I haven’t seen this show, so I can’t comment.

No, I can’t.

Having lived through the Life of Brian hoo-hah — which was a disaster for the “right” (thanks Malcolm Muggeridge!) — I try not to weigh in on the “offensiveness” of anything I haven’t seen, based only on someone else’s description, no matter how awful it sounds.

But clearly it’s being talked about, so consider this post merely a heads-up.
