Is Hentai Bad?

[kasperbbs]

The way i see it it doesn't physically hurt or abuse anybody, what can't be said about porn, of course i`m not saying that anyone forces people to shoot porn films, but i`m pretty sure that most of them would prefer to have other sources of income. Well whatever floats you boat. Only thing that baffles me about all this is that blowing someones brains out is considered less 'bad' than people making love on paper or in video.
EDIT: i changed my mind ,hentai/lolicon or whatever is terrible, it should be banned, thanks to that crap it's difficult to find any good anime when you have to go through all that ecchi spam.

I just don't understand why people regard lolicon as child porn... there aren't any children in it, its a drawing.
Not that I'm really into it.
But hentai is good, I don't like watching whores.

Hentai be fun!

 

[Feralbreed]

At least it takes away all the drama-bullshit that is Anime and the plots focus on removing clothes from schoolgirls.

And that can never be a bad thing.

 

[Ca3zar416]

While not necessarily bad I can say it tends to get creepier more than other things do.

 

[incal11]

Whatever is done with talent isn't bad, even if it's hentai or loli.

 

[kuolonen]

Hentai is awesome. But thats my opinion.

That said, why does my (or anyones) opinion matter in this subject? Hentai's is a product that only harms, if harms, its drawer, so the final product maybe used in youre own privacy (no matter how debased) without guilty conscience. If you keep it to yourself, why should your personal sexual fetish be anyone else's business?

.. but thats just my opinion. Maybe some people just have the need push their morals on other people.

So I don't think loli is wrong. Hell, the non-sexual loli stuff can be rather cute.

Please. Have a seat over there.

Lolicon is AWESOME

FTFY

Another hentai thread. Hentai isn't bad. Personally i think it's awesome. it's a way an artist can convey his/her greatest sexual fantasy no matter how un realistic. Personally i find a senario where two girl explore there sexuality neverously so much more erotic then a bunch of whores busting out their tits and sucking dick all day.

This. Every time. Also? Much more believable and relatable.

Because those drawings are supposed to depict children. It's wrong for the same reason as drawing pictures of a bunch of, I dunno, white people brutally fucking up a black person. But hey, it's just a drawing, isn't it? Artistic freedom in all of it's glory, but there's a certain limitation to exactly what you should be able to do, that's where the whole problem in that debate lies.

I don't think it's wrong to depict racism if people want to. They are not discriminating against anyone by making a picture of something. If people did it in real life, then that's what we should judge. Furthermore, it allows them to get out their feelings without doing any real damage.

Considering what a wide field of themes and subjects hentai incorporates you might as well ask if people think porn is bad. That said it's always hilarious to see the reaction of someone who stumbles upon some of the more "exotic" sub-genres of hentai, like the one Boku no Pico occupies.

Spoiler: Warning, DON'T watch this video unless you want to sell your very SOUL to Lucifer.

Spoiler: No seriously, this is some pretty messed up shit you're going to see.

Spoiler: Last chance to turn away if you're a giant sissy. Consider yourself duly warned that this is NSFW.

 

[Casual Shinji]

It's just someone's sexual fantasy put on paper; There's nothing wrong with that.

In fact, some of it can be pretty damn funny and well drawn.

 

[Jack of Spades]

Most over used line in hentai:
"Your body is more honest than you are." or something along the lines of that.



Edit: Guro is the WORST genre of hentai, I can't unsee it.

Compared to actual pornography, no. A lot of porn actresses are probably funding an addiction of some sort by debasing themselves. Ink does not have the capacity to do that.

That said, paedophilia does seem to be a pretty prevalent theme in Hentai, from what I have heard. And that's bad, even if it's just drawings.

How is it bad if it's just drawings?

Because it's facilitating somebody getting off to representations of children. That kind of behaviour should be cured, not encouraged. Just because there is a market doesn't mean it ought to be catered to.

But isn't it better if they get off on drawings instead of real children. There's no way to cure sexual preference, all they can do is suppress their urges, so having at least some kind of material to legally satisfy themselves would be better than holding it in until something bad happens.

May I ask why it should be cured? Having a lolita fetish is not the same as paedophilia or hebophilia, it is extremely improbable that you would become a child molester just by viewing lolicon material. No one is harmed in the production, or viewing, and no one is harmed afterwards, because the viewer does not become a child-molester. Curing is for diseases, not for the personal sexual preferences of people.

Even if you find the material to be the most repulsive and offensive thing you have ever seen, you shouldn't say that it has to be cured.

But of course, allow me to make up for my attempt at being succint

I coincede with your point that two girls exploring their sexuality nervously is much more erotic than a bunch of whores busting out their tits and sucking all day. I also expand by saying that the prior scenario, the one with the two girls exploring their sexuality, is much more relatable and believable for almost any human being that considers themselves worthy of their notion of reality.

Hope that helps

Thank you it does help.
Yeah thats why i like hentai so much is because it is more relatable even the senarios where random things happen that seem completly unrealistic are still much more relatable then normal porn. If a boy and girl are having sex i want to know their reasons for it. i think when porn has a backround or story if you will then it makes it a whole lot better. Im glad some one agrees.
