There were revisions, but one of the major points was (for example) sexuality.That's why (and I wish I was making this up) the first same-sex character in Marvel was in .... 1992, and he wasn't actually seen, you know, kissing until 2011.Enforcing orthodoxy through private means has a long and unhappy history. I don't doubt that the moral guardians who seek to do this always have the best of intentions. And sometimes, maybe they are right. Maybe this time, those who are seeking to enforce a code upon people as to what is, and isn't, acceptable really are correct. I personally agree with the aims (if not the means). But one thing history shows me is that the principle of non-censorship is worth so much, because I am not wise enough to be the arbiter for other people.</blockquote>
