Okay, the parents who are saying Daniel Radcliffe should limit his career to G-rated scenes because their child looks up to him as a role model falls into the category of "STUPIDEST COMMENTS EVAR," right up there with "Bush may be wrong, but at least he sticks to his answers! (Even when they're wrong.)" As one comment (the only comment I saw at the time) stated, their kids won't see him naked in Harry Potter movies if they put their clothes on. :P If they don't want their kids to see nudity, that's their own (if flawed, IMHO) prerogative, so then they should just tell their kids not to go see the play. Or something.
To add to this - It's a theatrical performance, not a movie, and the more noxiously prurient of the Potter fiends won't go because it's a horse and a woman, NOT a Slytherin, that he's involved with.
Actually, what I don't quite get is that the theatrical performance is open to children in the audience. The article makes it appear the performance is more "explicit" than "implied", or whatever.
I don't think any parent with even the common sense of a garden slug will be taking children under ten or so to see Equus. There's a murky area between ten and 15 where it's really a question of how mature any individual child is, in their ability to even comprehend the subject matter.
