That's the equivalent of arresting anyone that has that hentai shit with children on the internet.

I'm quite considerably against slippery slope arguments. I think you can make abstract any subjective concept to make it look unwise with them. Note that I am not against your opinion, because I am halfway between pro and against this idea; but I think the point is that setting paradigms and deciding the point at which something is too far is important. It's an all or nothing mentality which I am against.

I would speculate that, because people are not brought up to consider children as sexual partners, most paedophiles will have to go through a sort of 'discovery' of their unusual sexual urges. This will, I assume, feature going through different levels of pornography and then onto real life. It's one for the research, and I don't have time to look through the academic papers.

Suffice to say I don't think your point of view there is incontestable. General consensus is to keep marijuana levels to a minimum, because it is a gateway to harder stuff; and the law reflects this. It has been decided that marijuana is one step too far, but nicotine is not...the slippery slope is avoided because people set the line and don't go for an 'all or nothing' mentality...and I think it could be argued that the same should go for child pornography of any kind.

Laws are different in Japan than in the rest of the world.

If you download the stuff mentioned then you probably are in violation of the child porn rules. You risk being in jail for quite some time.

I guess you are ok if the females all have huge breasts or something.

[edit] Ok apparently they now have comparable rules after US pressure.

In 1998, Japan was the world's biggest producer of child pornography and Parliament recently refused to pass a law banning the production of child pornography, citing "business reasons." Under American pressure, in 2003 the Japanese government updated its child pornography laws to match those of the west, however it failed to curtail the industry.


Laugh all you want at that 'dumb judge' but he is just applying the current laws correctly.

One other issue may be...is it wrong to be sexually attracted to the body features of children? I was thinking that if a guy wanted to marry that Shawn whatever her name was from the USA gymnastics, he would really have to have some sort of paedophilia gene in him. She looks identical to a child. There's a 20 year old girl in my house who used to be a gymnast and she gets ID'd for 16's at the cinema. She is tiny and flat chested...would her boyfriend be considered a paedophile?

If not, technically any cartoon involving small people with underdeveloped bodies would not be paedophilia unless it were specified that their age were below 18 in the actual cartoon. Ofc it's different for characters from the simpsons.

No surprise that you responded so quickly. Waiting for your Dakota Fanning up-skirt gifs to load?

2. I'm far more funny than you'll ever be (around people who aren't stupid, whooping american seals at least). I am not entirely in tune with TL humour because it is far below the usual sort of humour of my friends, and it's hard to stoop

3. I'm attractive

4. I'm definitely more intelligent, philosophical, wise, well-read, charming and intellectual than you

5. I'm an exciting, enthusiastic person; with a lot of time for any charitable cause. I'm a passionate and emotional philanthrope.

6. I'm an elitist, and refuse to accept anything but the best

7. I have an incredibly eclectic range of things I enjoy, which is stimulating for people around me. I am always busy. From sports/ gym, to philosophy and politics, to gaming, to music, to academia and esoteric exploration; I do a lot of things which means I have a lot of interesting things to talk about.

8. I take life seriously...I have a lot of emotion and passion. I care about things, and I'm very protective and loyal of and to my friends.

9. I can fit more children in my van than you can

This ruling is idiotic. Obviously no children were harmed by the making of "simpson's porn". As for immoral urges: in the first place, what is immoral about a fantasy? If I fantasized about killing someone would that make me immoral? In the second place, if this guy does fantasize about Bart and Lisa, he will do it with or without the picture. Are you going to prosecute him for that?

damn Australia seems to be at the center of all this kind of censorship shit lately.

If they want to ban this they should also ban any form of film/game violence and have people go to jail for training martial arts etc :/

Lolicon is illegal in Sweden too btw.

Why do people keep comparing graphic depictions of children having sex with video game violence? How are they at all related? For some reason, beating off to children is disturbingly prevalent in society today among young male adults. I don't understand why, but it's honestly frightening seeing people rationalize it and how seemingly normal it is among internet using men to collect and watch the shit

They are related since depictions of violence isn't real violence and so no one gets hurt. Same way lolicon is a depiction of children having sex so no one gets hurt or is exposed in any way. They are also related since it has never been proven that watching depictions of violence makes you violent and neither has it been proven that watching lolicon makes you more likely to rape someone. Only reason lolicon is illegal in some places is because it is considered "immoral" whatever that means.

Even if watching violent movies made you slightly more likely to act violently I cant see a reason to ban it. Alcohol consumption makes people a lot more violent on average anyway. I don't think it should be possible for people to go to jail for what they draw or fiction they write or own. Its art and you don't censor art, you just don't.
