"On TV, the children can watch people murdering each other, which is a very unnatural thing, but they can't watch two people in the very natural process of making love. Now, really, that doesn't make any sense, does it?"

- Sharon Tate

About this Quote

In this quote, Sharon Tate is expressing her disappointment with the double requirements and censorship in media. She explains the paradox that kids are permitted to witness violence and murder on tv, which is an extremely unnatural and disturbing act, however they are not permitted to see two individuals taking part in the natural and gorgeous act of making love. Tate questions the reasoning behind this, as it appears contradictory and illogical. She highlights the manipulated priorities of society, where violence is deemed acceptable and even entertaining, while love and intimacy are considered unsuitable and hidden away. Overall, Tate is requiring a shift in social norms and a reevaluation of what is thought about appropriate for children to see on television.
