I still can't figure this one out...how is one finger more offensive than a whole damn arm? You know, when movies are on TV and somebody flips the bird, they digitally scramble it, like we don't KNOW what they're doing! But if somebody gives someone else the arm, that's okay, that's allowable...what's up with that? Wouldn't you think the bigger the body part used, the more offensive it would be considered?

Re: Obscene gestures
I wasn't aware that there was an obscene arm gesture.

Yeah for some reason the arm didn't get as popular as the 'bird'.

Re: Obscene gestures
I think it's because people generally can't fuck themselves with their arms, while they can with their fingers.

Generally?! As if anyone could do it to themselves? That’s one double jointed MoFo!

Re: Obscene gestures
The finger usually means fuck you, the arm means up yours!

Re: Obscene gestures
I wasn't familiar with the arm gesture, maybe the censors aren't either.

Re: Obscene gestures
I think the finger is a little bit more implicit than the arm. @this how quasi-analytical this discussion is.

Re: Obscene gestures
But for those who know, either a finger or an arm can go "up yours."Tony Marino wrote:The finger usually means fuck you, the arm means up yours!

Re: Obscene gestures
Wish I knew those gestures while in Brindisi and all the guys walking behind me hissing like snakes. Especially that guy who tapped my ass at a urinal in a public toilet.
