sgs001: Rape and rape themes are acceptable to most people as part of telling a story. However, they are not acceptable as the POINT of the story.

Rape / snuff / whatever for sexual pleasure is different from a movie, say "Mad Max" where there is a rape and murder scene. That is 1 minute for a 2 hour movie, and is used to make a point of the violent nature of that society at that time. They did not make a 2 hour movie of a girl getting raped a murdered.

Snuff, be it on film or be in as manga / anime is just as obnoxious and unwelcome as it comes.

We are in a business about pleasure, not death.

For every gallery listed it has to be a judgement call. While I agree that someartist portray characters that look underage, most do not. Anime by it's nature can be a tough call since pubic hair is almost always none exsistant, and the features of the characters tend to make you think of girls, not women. (such as the large eyes, ribbons in the hair, ect.) So you have to decide for yourself what you feel comfortable listing. Larger breasts, the context of the image and that type of thing should all be taken into consideration.

As for the snuff, rape and torture anime or toons, well I agree that you should not list it and treat it as you would any other type of content. A note on the Jetsons content, this or any other content that depicts Copyrighted characters should be avoided. Not only can there be problems if the copyright holder decides to get nasty, it also panders more to children IMHO.

Mosaic images are normally stolen, so it is good to read that LL owners don't list it.

Zenhentai is an automatic delete here after sending his sites 404 or redirected three times in the last few years.

Yeah, a potential lawsuit from Hanna-Barbera is certainly one real possibility.

Every time I start listing his stuff again - his servers take another dump - and when they come back they always seem to have those redirects - been purging them recently every time my bot finds them

I agree that it is up to the individual LL owner, but I don't have any problem listing toons, anime, hentai etc. In my view, art is... :)

I haven't done lot of adult cartoons - one or two sites if I remember right - and I probably never will, but for me, those pics are only drawings. Also, most sponsor site banners and ads lookalike, you can stare them for ages and still don't know what that picture shows.

I may just be old fart (as I am) but I'm not into anime/hentai/etc. and never will. That won't stop me promote them, though.

Well, US lawmakers do get confused about that. |sad|

Reminds me of a story - there was a "cult status" cartoon in the US many years ago called "Ren and Stimpy," about a hyperactive rat/mouse and his large, stupid cat companion, who lived in a big house in the suburbs, of course. ;)

The cartoon creator, John Krisfaluci, went on a tour of US college campuses promoting the series. Everywhere he went, some presumably intelligent college kid would get up and ask "Are Ren and Stimpy gay?"

Each time, Krisfaluci would patiently explain, "no, they are not gay. They are ink on cels."

Some folks really don't grasp the simplest of facts. |jester|

I know that cartoon. They show them here on TV. I never thought they were gay, as they were cartoon characters. Not my favourite kind of humour, but I have seen 2 or 3 episodes.
