Ain't it the truth.  I think you overstate the case by the use of "little";
I have NEVER heard ANY (negative) discussion about the glorification of 
drinking, hell-raising, lusting, cheating, and all-round good clean fun
that is the norm in C & W.  Of course, I don't remember anyone trying to
ban Beethoven's "Eroica", either.  As Ellen Burstyn says to Alan Alda in
"Same Time Next Year":  "It's a sign of age, you know; concern about the
declining morality of youth."
