Have you ever seen a dead body?
How did you feel?
Upset? Traumatised? Relieved? Like poking it with a stick?

Nope
Surprisingly no I haven't, and I'll tell you why. I'm doing a forensics/police based course at university (a double whammy against me in the likeability stakes I feel, a student AND a copper) so you'd think I'd see a bunch of gore, not so much... kind of. I've seen plenty of pictures of bodies chopped up or full of enough water to keep pre-pubescent America stocked in water bras but nothing in real life. One of my mates died when I was 18 but his funeral was closed casket so I didn't see anything there either. More surprisingly though my mum is an embalmer (makes dead guys look less, dead) and I haven't even seen any of those!
I guess I better hope all that stuff about media desensitization is true.
