When the second quarter ended, the television went off at the Super Bowl party I attended with my family. This has been our standard practice for at least 10 years, maybe 20.

We don’t watch the halftime show because often it is extremely sexualized — “I better have you naked by the end of this song” was the lyric Justin Timberlake sang as he exposed Janet Jackson’s breast. None of us wants to watch half-naked women dancing, and we don’t want to show it to our daughters or sons, of any age.
