Appropriate for who, or what? This question needs more information to be answered.

The definitions of "appropriate" and "inappropriate" are: "suitable (or not suitable) for a particular person, purpose or occasion" (definitions from dictionary.com). Unless you specify what that particular person, purpose or occasion is, your question is meaningless. By definition, whether something is appropriate or inappropriate is dependent on what it's being used for.

Anything can be appropriate or inappropriate, depending on what it's being used for. For example, a sexy green dress would be appropriate for a cocktail party, but inappropriate for a funeral. So you cannot simply ask, "Is this dress appropriate?" You have to specify: "Is this dress appropriate for a cocktail party?" or "Is this dress appropriate for a funeral?"

Or, "Is this movie appropriate?" Appropriate for who, or what? The question needs more information: "Is this movie appropriate for an 8-year-old child?" or "Is this movie appropriate for a romantic night at home with my husband?" or "Is this movie appropriate to watch at my grandmother's 91st birthday party?"
