Our Safety Parameters

We measure one thing and one thing only: visual nudity and sex scenes. Every TV show and movie is rated Safe, Slightly Safe, or Unsafe.

SAFE
  • Zero visual nudity or sex scenes throughout the movie or episode
  • Verbal references, dialogue, or jokes are considered safe
  • Violence and profanity do not affect the safety rating
SLIGHTLY SAFE
  • ~Only brief flashes of nudity (a second or two) or partial / distant exposure
  • ~Sex is implied — covered, under sheets, fades to black, no body parts shown
  • ~No extended, graphic, or repeated sexual content
UNSAFE
  • Clear visual nudity (breasts, genitals, full buttocks shown plainly)
  • On-screen sex scenes with thrusting, undressing, or extended intimacy
  • Multiple or graphic sexual scenes anywhere in the movie or episode
