Also why in the hell would semen drip from the pipes? It isn't really any more logical to think that's semen over anything else just because the video has prostitutes (prostitutes drink milk too, they can use glues, and they can paint their houses white ).

But the thing is, it is NOT overtly presented. Even people on this forum can't figure out exactly what it is supposed to represent, so where would the grounds be for censorship? And really, from having lived in Japan, I saw many things all around that were completely all about male sexuality. Also, the semen overflowing from the pipes - once again, abstract expressionism. By the same logic, why would milk or purity be flowing from the pipes? Either way it would be an abstract expression.

Can't we just accept the fact that some people will choose to see the video as the prostitutes getting washed over by purity and others see it as the prostitutes or female society(especially in Japan) being overpowered by the men?
