[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 5613022, member: 12508"] Do you do cosplay and go to Comicons? What [B]I[/B] asked [B]you [/B]to address was the issue of rampant porn and "inappropriate" manga and anime characters. [B]You[/B], and your fellow non-liberals are extremely upset at "inappropriate" books, clothing etc, at Target and other businesses. What I don't understand is why it's OK when it's manga and anime (which millions of underage kids view daily), but not OK when it's someone else's view/idea/expression? Sure, it's an art form, but so is literature and other forms of expression, which include clothing. Why aren't all of you down at Barnes and Noble or writing threatening letters to YouTube over all of the gay, straight fantasy, and interplanetary porn that is readily accessible to any kid with a phone or computer? It isn't a straw man argument if it's relevant to the conversation. You have decided it is not. Fine. [/QUOTE]
