Still I wonder why a few years should make any difference. My friend dated a 22 year old man when she was 15 and her parents was okay with it. Really I don't see how that is okay. But I guess it is? The man was like a friend to her brother or something...buh...and this is probably very common. Hey wait think, if a 17 year old dates a 18 year old I guess he's a pedo too. xD But whatever, lets end this okay?

Considering that my father raped me when I was 2. I have a pretty good Idea what goes on in the minds of Pedo's AND the victems. If I saw Real Life Child porn stuff I would report it. But if its anime/manga it means it isnt REAL. and if My child came across such stuff I would explain it to them that it isn't real and if someone older then them did such things they should scream and run away. There is a Difference between Real Life and Anime. One is Real one isn't. It is like someone listening to a song that has words like "I cut my wrists like cheep cupons and say that death was on sale today" and blaming it cause their kids got depressed and killed them selves.

Its the Media's fault my kid got molested.. No its the adults who hurt the child who is at fault. if you don't want your child seeing stuff like this, bubble wrap your house, keep them from the internet and cable/satalite tv and don't have sex or kiss your spouse. they are gonna see it one way or another.

Wow yeah... ;/ Like I said, the danger is usually closer than you think. Sorry to hear that DK. I have no experiences myself so I can't say more than that.

*steps back in*

It was depicting pedophilia. End of story. What you look at, to me, is your business, but if it can be offensive to someone? Don't put it up on the public forums.

Also, would you say Hentai isn't porn? Cause, it is.

Now, look, this situation seems to be resolved, and I think we should just drop it. One side saying animated pedophilia is completely acceptable, and one saying it isn't, is just going to go on forever.

Sen - Well when people start blaming TV and Songs for someone's actions it kinda pisses me off.. If I see a child doing such things it real life I'd tell them its a no-no and its bad.. the older the child gets the more curios they get. They will do stuff sooner or later but the best Adults can do is protect them the best they can by telling them its not safe and such. TV or not, kids will still get hurt. Talking to them or not, 1/5 will still want to see the puppies and get kidnapped. Anime/pictures and songs aren't to blame and neither are the parents (unless they sold the child or did the deed them-selves)

My mom still blames her self for what happened to me and she wasn't even home. She didn't know he was a child molester.. A wife beater yes a child molester she didn't know. when she found out she told me and ran.. and she still blames her self.

Hermes:
Hentai is porn >.> but the proper translation is Pervert =p
and the picture was just a kiss so it could be considered anything really.

I never said anything about "hentai". And they were barley toughing each other. If such tiny thing offends you internet is no place to be. I can't say it without being rude. I bet you have had those porn ads slapped up the face before. It's nothing to whine over.

Next thing I know the first volume of Absolute Boyfriend is considered child porn cause father and daughter(5 years old) are bathing -.-

They were bathing with their dad in Totoro too. lol

okay, I am back sort of (:

Oh, but people are like monkeys - they like to mimic what they see. If it all is acceptable on TV, everyone is so "oooh, that's so sexy and cool, mmm, I like it soo much" so what's wrong in doing sexy and cool things in real life. Those kids -might- like it in the end and all, just like the ones in animes. Yea, some unstable minds will do it nevertheless, but such things are basically encouraging it, since it's soo awesome if drawn and all.

But I think I'm really am heading off now. My head hurts and I agree with Hermes. This could go on and on.

And I repeat, I am talking in general, not about certain pictures.

Or, an all 16 years olds in teen movies having sex is child porn too.

I'm not whining.

And you know, I gotta ask, how old are you? 15? 16? Look, if someone tells you something offends them, it's really immature to just tell them that it shouldn't because it doesn't offend YOU. I could just post up pictures of dogs humping each other, and say "Well, dogs do it in public all the time." Is it seen on the web a lot? YUP. Is it still offensive? YUP.

Just because YOU find it acceptable, doesn't mean everyone else does. Your arguments have no grounds other than "I like it, so should you, blah blah."

Also, Volkner was there~ He's about my age if not older. Now, certain time frames, I find pretty acceptable. I'm currently with a 15 year old, I'm 19, but I've known her since I was 17. If I were 22? I would tell her to wait until she was 20 and tell me if she still wanted me. After you can buy booze, 15 seems a bit..uhm...yeah. Now, if she had known this guy for years, and her parents are okay with it? Well, as long as it really is love, I see no issue, as long as they aren't doing anything inappropriate. Also, yes, an 18 year old dating a 17 year old is held to the same rules as any other adult, except in situations where it is a high-school couple, in which case it is allowed.

I can't even hold my girlfriends hand in front of some people. That makes me terribly sad, but I can understand why. Why is that? Because I make it a point to try and understand other viewpoints, not force mine on people, then throw a minor fit when they still disagree.

Yea there too! Americans don't do that.. at least not where I am from cause they consider it Improper.. or something.. but its common in Japan for people to bath together.. heck look at the bathhouses! Children, teens, and adults all running around nakid or in just a towel. its a Perverts Paradise!

*zones out to Junjou Romantica* x3

Anyway.. who wants to see my newest art!


One i am 20, Two no one said you had to like it, three you started it with the "there are children of 10 in there!" if you don't like it just ignore it! four there wasn't anything bad in there really. I remember in the anime the Gym leaders became good friends with the trainers they fought, All in all it could have been a friendly gesture. Now If it was a image of something from PicoxPico then even I would have thrown a fit since that is a pedo anime and shouldn't be posted anywhere but Aarinfantasy.

Loveless is basically the same as that pic he had and I never seen anyone get bent out of shape over it. And Unlike the fan art.. it has acutal Animation! no one got bent out of shape.. they just ignored it if they didn't like it.

Art~? Ooh, I would LOVE to see it~

Umm NO, I never said you should like it. If I wanted to slap something up your face to offend I'd pick a real porn pic.

You say your relationship is any different but you know many people may not agree to that. You may already know so I don't understand why you are talking really.

*sigh* Alright, I get it. You aren't going to listen. I'm leaving. I'll come back when I feel less annoyed and when I sense less ignorance.
