^ I'm not sure how I feel about not knowing a single show from those pics

16-17

If it was just 16-17, then yay... those girls can be with some arguing considered semi-adult or something.

The Japan gets a hardon (or the pop culture works in that direction) from <15 years olds and going well bellow than that

I'm not sure how I feel about knowing every single show from those pics 

[ConsiderPhlebas]

Well, almost half of them are from the same one...

I just wanted to mimic the sentence though 

[DmonHiro]

Child porn in anime? Man, have I been missing out on some shows, or something? You'd think I'd notice THOSE.
WAIT, OFFICER, I WAS KIDDING!!! 

Seriously now... calling any anime "child porn" is not only stupid, it's also insulting to real children who had to suffer though that.

Well I misplaced my giant cookie. But errr.....
I'm seriously out of ideas. Imageshack went paid only so I deleted my account there, that one was a treasure trove.

In my defense, it was 3 AM here.

Ok, let's assume that as fiction, it is fantasy fulfillment of some sort. A story we desire to hear, things we wish could happen, places we wish we could be, etc. If this is the case, and we are indeed pandering to an audience full of people that wish for "loli", then the argument could be made that were pedophilia not illegal, it would be widely popular.

That is a very harrowing thought x.x

Gotta love this argument. Lets replace 'anime' here with the super popular 'Grand Theft Auto'. According to this logic, GTA is fantasy fulfillment of some sort. Something we desire to do, wish could happen. So, if the things that are done in GTA (eg: Murder, Heists, beating the shit out of people on the street) were not illegal, they would be widely popular.
A very harrowing thought indeed...

So no, that argument could not be made...

I know you're trying to be sarcastic here, but it's not working because this is completely plausible. In fact I firmly believe these acts would definitely be common as fuck if they didn't have consequences.

  Then that person is mental and there are bigger issues.  You dont go and give your rights away because something might happen.  Just because some one is mental and goes and rapes a real person after seeing anime ass does not mean everyone else should be banned from seeing it if they so want to.

Also even if there was no legal consequence to beating someone up on the street, how many sane people do you think would really be able to do that.  Also people in the US have guns, good luck thinking that there would be no consequence, because if there was no law even more people would be armed.  what if's can go on for ever.  but fiction is fiction and should not be censored, I just wont watch what I don't like.

There is one part to that argument, you can't argue against. The human mind becomes desensitized after continuous exposure to stimuli. Even if it is an idea that is being suggested, not just the actual experience.

And yes, games like GTA do indeed have an affect on the mind as well. it's not that you're more likely to do something yourself, it is more that you are more likely to be indifferent to acts of violence and will consider them more natural.

Loli anime doesn't explicitly encourage sexualization of children. What it should do is make the mind more apathetic to it being done.


The problem is that that, which you encounter a lot, or be suggested of a lot, loses its novelty and becomes that much more closer to normal.

[froody1911]

Yes Krumm, I agree with you that people who would perpetrate violence if it were legal are have severe mental issues. And so do people who would have sex with children. The problem? Such people exist, and not in minuscule numbers. Games like GTA are fulfilling for the former category and drawn animation that depicts sexualized children are fulfilling to the latter category.
It's also a lot easier for child predators to act on their urges than it is for homicidal maniacs.

Yup, that's the issue. To repeat one of my earlier posts, when a society becomes okay with the broadcasting of such materials, it is cause for concern. Because sooner or later, the public consciousness becomes desensitized to the depicted acts.

Which is why violent crime rates have gone up...
O, wait, no...they haven't.

I doubt GTA would have much of an affect on America's crime rate, after all, to my knowledge, mass fetisization of violence and guns has been a part of it's culture for basically a century. At least significantly more so than the surrounding and other first world countries. So as I see it, GTAs influence can at best be measured similarly to a drop in a bucket.
