When people think of the United States, the first thing that comes to people's minds must be the words "democracy and freedom." Because this is not only the foundation of the United States, but also the image that the United States has been constantly promoting for so many years. In the Declaration of Independence in 1776, it was these four words that successfully made the United States independent. [Dog's Head]
Whether it is in movies or the real life of Americans, Americans' views on sex are indeed not very conservative, and there are often some large-size scenes. Coupled with the concept of freedom preached by the Americans, they advocate daring to love and hate, and there is also a meaning of my body and my decision.
It seems that Americans are not so sensitive to the word "sex". But the real situation is that the United States is very strict in dealing with prostitution, and many people have even lost their green cards and been forcibly deported. So if every American has the absolute right to freedom of his own body, why does the United States, a country that preaches freedom, manage prostitution so strictly?
01
Ideological differences
When it comes to the development of pornography culture, the first country that comes to mind is Japan. However, in many Japanese study materials, there is usually a black prompt in pure English. And there's a red bold note at the top that says FBI WARNING.
And after seeing this sign, many people will be afraid and turn off the picture. This is because their actions may have violated the laws of the United States, and the department that has the power to enforce this behavior is the FBI that everyone in the United States knows.
As for why the United States is so strict in this regard, a large part of the reason is because of their ideology. Anyone who has studied history knows that the United States came from Britain. Because the United States was a British colony before independence. And the vast majority of the people were also British who had fled here. As for their mass massacre of the indigenous people, it is not relevant to today's content, so I will not discuss it too much.
But in 1161, the king of England began to loot money in order to wage war. At that time, the custom industry, as one of the main sources of economy, was naturally also looked at by King Henry II. In order to take advantage of the opportunity to raise taxes, Henry II legalized the custom industry and established a fixed location of the red light district to increase the royal family's taxes.
And many things are at the beginning, and it is difficult to keep them. So since then, the red light district has become part of British culture. With the discovery of the new continent of America, many people who came to pan for gold and were oppressed in Britain began to gradually move to the Americas, which led to the later United States.
But the difference in the United States is that the country was founded on a political system and did not experience the monarchy and monarchy, and a large number of British people in the United States were more supportive of church reform. Because many British, who were old aristocrats who were excluded, fled to the United States because of religious persecution.
At this time, the Puritans began to enter the American continent, and they were very opposed to extravagant indulgence, so they placed special emphasis on the attitude of purity of mind and tranquility in their missions. At that time, the Catholic Church was seriously corrupt and lived in luxury, completely ignoring the common people. Coupled with the rapid development of industry and commerce after the imbalance of labor caused by the Black Death, a new upper and middle class was born in Europe, and their status also increased.
And the increase in their status led to the decline of the power of the Holy See, which further promoted the reform of the Church. In order to oppose the Holy See, these Englishmen in the Americas embraced the Puritan idea of thrift and anti-extravagance. This is also the difference between the American and British attitudes on the topic of "sex" later.
As for whether it is cheating or not, the British, especially those from aristocratic backgrounds, don't care much about this. I think that private life does not affect a person's ability to do things too much. But the United States places more emphasis on family loyalty and harmony. This is also one of the most fundamental reasons why the United States treats the issue of customs.

The price of the peachy storm
In modern times, the United States still maintains this kind of family harmony and single-minded attitude towards lovers. There have been many presidents in the United States who have been involved in the "peach storm" scandal, and once every president is exposed to such a thing, he will immediately be condemned by the people of the whole country, and will ask the law to sanction the president.
Because this matter is also the face of the United States, and it is a basic rule that countless Americans are not allowed to break, even if you are the president. Because the United States is, after all, a country that values democracy, at least procedurally. As a result, every 4 years in the United States, the general election has to be run to become the president of the United States, and everyone is no exception.
So if you still want to be re-elected, then this peachy scandal is definitely enough for you, the president, to drink a pot. Former US President Clinton was revealed to have developed a lover relationship with Monica, an intern in the White House, and after the FBI investigation, the special relationship between the two parties was confirmed, which made Clinton's reputation plummet, and he apologized to the angry American people for the first time.
But the United States, as a relatively open country, is also well aware of the people's need for "sex", after all, this is a normal physiological response of human beings. Therefore, in many American blockbusters, many actors will be relatively sexy in dressing.
Getting actors to dress sexy, is a form of venting they take. At the same time, the appropriate sex appeal can also stimulate people's attention, which is also beneficial to the film industry itself. After all, the United States believes that properly allowing people to vent can effectively reduce crimes caused by "sex". Therefore, the United States Congress will also open some late-night adult TV programs to reduce crime at night.
In addition, there are also places in the United States where custom industries are legalized in some specific areas. Although 49 of the 50 states in the United States explicitly prohibit the custom industry, there is also a special state that is used to specifically regulate the custom industry.
With these measures, you only need to pay for it, and you can actually have a chance to vent. Therefore, where it is expressly prohibited, the management of prostitution in the United States has become quite strict. As long as the transaction is privately initiated, the US police will intervene in the investigation, and the investigation information will eventually be forwarded to the FBI for final decision, and then punishment will be imposed according to the severity of the incident.
Of course, if the cleanliness is poor or the person who refuses to change the course repeatedly, he will eventually face a judgment of revocation of the green card. This is the most serious punishment for everyone who aspires to live in the United States.
