Angelina Jolie has banned her children from seeing her latest movie.

The Oscar-winning beauty believes it would be inappropriate for Maddox, six, Pax, three, Zahara, two, and 17-month-old Shiloh to see their mother as a naked computer-animated temptress killer lizard in her movie 'Beowulf'.

Angelina said: "I think it's too much. I don't think they should see their mom that way. I don't wear nightgowns like that in the house. I've got boys in my house. You don't do that as a mom."

The actress said she may consider letting them view the film when they grow up.

She added to People magazine: "When they're older, hopefully they'll see it. It's weird, I'm a mom."

Angelina recently revealed she felt "exposed" after seeing herself naked in 'Beowulf'.

The actress was so shocked by how "real" the animation looked, she warned long-term partner Brad Pitt about the sexy nude scenes.

Angelina said: "I was really surprised that I felt exposed. There are certain moments where I actually felt shy - and called home, just to explain that the fun movie I had done that was a digital animation was, in fact, a little different than we expected.

"I didn't expect ourselves to come out as much. I didn't expect it to feel as real, so it was kind of funny at first."

what's worse?Nov 7th, 2007 - 20:20:53

teaching children that girls and women should be ashamed of their bodies, or letting them know that the human form is beautiful and not to be ashamed of?

It's like in the joke: There was this woman who cheated on her husband and he caught her in bed with the lover. Her reaction? 'Oh my God, what is thie man near me doing?!!!' pretending she is surprised. SAME here: Oh My God, is this me on the screen? Oh my, I am naked? No way, I have nothing to do with that, it's just the screen:)))) 'It's wierd you are mum' RIGHT. And you shouldn't. Don't deserve it.

all of you are ridiculous. First I'd like to say she is absolutely beautiful inside and out. Second I think she has every right to not want her children to see this film until they are older, or maybe not even then. It's like she said... it's just weird. I don't think she's trying to teach them to be ashamed of their bodies, and she certainly has no reason to be ashamed of hers, but they're her children. It's not that they shouldn't see naked bodies, but no matter how hot your mom is.... do you want to see her naked?

It's amazing how feminazis completely deny human psychology. Especially the baa brigade which never examines the dialectical black magic necessary to support modern femi axioms.

#1 her kids have a relationship with her as provider and someone they run to, not someone someone else drools at, which leads to
#2 the drooling, to the kids, implies their mom as an object (you'd think fem-o-fascists would get this) and someone who
#3 the more subtle effect of the kids seeing something to drool at and the notion of it's nice (temporarily) to be drooled at
#4 which may take precedence at a later over things which are more worthwhile

Just because we'd like to be rational does not mean that we are. Beauty gets thrown out the window and is replaced of 'I'd hit that.'

We associate things with people and people with things.
