>.>. Huh, funny how softcore Suicide girls usually are and they're banned, there goes that cute Japanese girl in a catsuit >.<
This, hell I'm underage to watch porn, but I do it anyway and I'm not a psycologically disturbed BURN THE JEWS person.Doddsickle said:

I've never been a fan of suicide girls since I don't find them (on average) very attractive, or at least not worth any of my money to ogle. I won't miss them from Comic Con, and they never belonged their in the first place. Besides, I can see Comic-Con coming under fire if any issues were raised over the ID issue, especially since I've been approached by minors asking me to buy porn for them. It's edgy and cool for minors to buy pornography at events like Comic Con, which can be a problem regardless of whether or not the seller is complicit in any illegal sales.
Had Comic Con banned a company from attending because of a single title or image containing 18+ only content, I would object, but this is a business who exclusively sell 18+ only material. They can sell their content at other events and online.

Jesus, what a storm in a teacup. Suicide Girls material is pretty damn softcore, most of those girls don't even do full nudity. Where I live you can buy their videos legally if you're fifteen and their book at any age, and I live in Australia, the land of "hey let's ban stuff just because we can". The "you and your body" sex education booklet I was given by my teacher when I was 12 was more explicit than any SG content I've ever seen. The worst thing it could influence an underage person to do is to want a tattoo without parental consent or something.
Yeah. Except it doesn't matter that you have miles and miles of evidence and the backing of nearly every living (and many dead) researchers to back your point.AndyFromMonday said:
God said porn is bad, apparently, somewhere in the folds of the bible that you can only find if you take a razor and split two of the pages apart to get to that secret entry. Which frankly is good enough for me to make laws that have absolutely no sense behind them but to perpetuate that secret entries teachings.
I've been to two Barnes and Nobles that had a book called "Big Book of Breasts" or something like that, has a pair of boobies right on the cover, with a slip over them that you can lift. They tend to be on the second shelf up, IE the height of a 6-9 year old.Endocrom said:
If you stand staring at these boobies and look to your right (at one store) or your left (at the other) you can see (assuming your vision isn't shot) children's soft back books about 20 feet away. in that awkward hideaway they have at their stores that seems to say "We aren't ashamed of nudity...but this propoganda for kids creeps us out." A notion I support of course.
Also that book was in the photography section, so it wasn't just a random boobs book. If anyone wants to verify it's the B&N in Silverdale and the one in Sunnyvale
(Washington and California respectively).Also to finish up since I love doing my own research: http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Big-Book-of-Breasts/Dian-Hanson/e/9783822833032/?itm=16&USRI=book+of+breasts . See it DOES exist

They're just protecting themselves from any hate that parents may give them if they allowed the Suicide Girls to sell that kind of stuff to minors. Ever see how easily a parent catches wind of any crap and blows it out of proportion? Yeah, that can happen, especially if there are a lot of minors at the convention.
(Also, I've always wondered why they call themselves the Suicide Girls. Are they depressed or something?)

Oh noes, a minor that's watching/reading porn. Whatever is this world coming to? *He said in a monotone and completely uninterested voice*
As if not every single person attending that convention hasn't seen porn of some sort already. The internet is overflowing with stuff like that. All you'd have to do if you cared was to google-image the word "titties".
I suppose it's just for the morality since you're "supposed" to be over 18 to watch it and that it's bad to directly break such rules instead of just by-passing them online... Or it could just be that the people organizing it is jealous that today's minors have such an easy time getting their hands on porn compared to what they had to do as minors.

It's not a "please think of the children" issue, it's a "we could get our assess sued" issue.
They're not doing it out of churlishness, it's being done out of the necessity of protecting their convention.

It's not morality (at least not from the perspective of the people running the con), it's an issue that they're technically liable and responsible for everything that happens there. It's the same reason even 4chan moderates itself to stop child-pornography. Comicon itself could be prosecuted for [insert various really bad things] if they fail to act on their information.Ulquiorra4sama said:
Most teens are getting porn on the interwebs, but that doesn't mean comicon doesn't have a responsibility to adhere with the law, and has a right to protect itself from liability.
Yeah, that kind of caught me too. I met a guy who was in his mid twenties once when I was twelve and he looked younger than I was. And I've heard my mom, who works in the bar industry, talking about a pair of twins who both look like they're in their mid teens, but they're both around thirty.SuccessAndBiscuts said:
It's really too bad for the girls. Four years in a row would be a big deal, I'd imagine, and being banned from this one...
A woman was spiteful you said she looked 18 years younger? Huh.SenseOfTumour said:
OT: I sincerely hope they weren't actually doing so, but I'm doubtful since the evidence brought up is entirely ridiculous.
