... pretty bad considering what Kochou-chan just wrote, but I don't really care right now.


What type of manga are you?

brought to you by Quizilla

Also, if I'm going to Hell, at least I'm going to have a good time getting there. Damn. They didn't make 15-year olds like that when *I* was that age. I'm probably going to the Very Bad Place. At least there's gonna be a lot of people there, too.

Tss. Don't be concerned about it. I read her entry, and while I wouldn't confront her about it, she seemed to be shocked about some non-shocking things. If someone I loved told me they were homosexual? Well, frankly, the time or two it's happened, I wasn't too concerned. Would I want my children to be participating in these acts? Well, I'm years away from children, but please, children *do not* belong to their parents. If a young man realizes that he's a homosexual, then frankly, whether his parents want him to be or not won't change that.

Try not to let her comments on sex get to you. The entry sure sounds like she's got the moral high ground, until you realize that basically the place she's coming from is "sex is bad, it's shameful and we need to hide it." You can choose to live your life that way, as long as you accept the fact that you're always going to be a dirty and shameful person, because guess what -- people are sexual beings. And didn't we just have half a dozen arguments at the Con where we realized that yaoi is not slash, it's not porn, and it's sure as hell not the trashy stuff that keeps appearing in my mailbox and asks me how many "perfectly legal, consentual 18 yr old girlz I wud like 2 fuk 2day." Pardon my French.

...She does have a point about the underage thing, I confess, tho you have to keep in mind that the standards for coming of age are always different where and when you are. That's the big reason I'm not into Harry Potter. You can have a Harry fic where the participants have been appropriately "aged" so that they're 18, and you can have a GW fic where they're all 15, and the Harry Potter one is still the underage one to me because they act and think like 12-year-olds. The G-boys act and think like adults, so I don't consider it underage.

Oh. And I got the same thing on the "which manga are you?" test. Big surprise. They need to learn how to mask their questions...

I'm sorry that you missed the point of my entry, darling. I never said sex was bad. LOL Far from it. Ask Hi-chan if she thinks I'm a sexual prude! She knows me personally. And just to inform all who don't know, my best friend of 8 yrs. is gay. I have nothing against homosexual acts or the descriptions of those sexual acts as long as it is done in a tasteful manner.

I was refering to the mass production of truly BAD one shot fanfics which are produced and read by teeney-boppers (of ALL ages) who haven't the vaguest idea of what sex is.

As for the hypothetical senario that I wrote of in my entry, I do know of people who read hentai yaoi fics and are complete hypocrites in the real world, and that portion of it was directed to them. I didn't want to make it too blunt in the entry for obvious reasons.

As I wrote in the closing portion of my entry, "To each his own."

Peace.

Kochou, I don't know if you'll read this, but if you do I'd like to apologize. I didn't mean to belittle you or your point of view, I just meant to offer an opposing viewpoint. It wasn't my intention to come between old friends, I just was trying to comfort SS when she seemed upset. Please don't take it as a criticism of yourself.

I'm glad you don't care. Why? Because I've never known you to care what other people think about you or you business. I know you to be a strong woman in both intellect and passion.
Hi-chan you know me pretty well, I'd like to think. We've gone through a lot. I hold you in high regard. I know that right now you're going through a tough time ... kind of. We all get that way, love. Remember we're family. We (and you know of whom I speak) were made sisters then. Though we may disagree, I hope can always come to us.

All for Ojii-san ::chi::

*huggles to all*

Thanks, guys (girls, womyn? Am I being un-PC?). I didn't think I'd start a fight because of some quiz results and a sexysexy picture of Draco Malfoy.

Mikke-chan -- thank you muchly for your thoughts and opinions. You said a lot of stuff that I agreed with, and I might have actually brought up myself if I wasn't so damn lazy. Urrr... and the Harry Potter/GW thing... yeah. I *way* agree. For some reason, I can have the G-Boyz fucking at 15 and it's "YAY! MORE MORE MORE!" but if I get *near* the HP Boys, I have to have the legal age of consent... in the US, not England. The mental "age" between the two is *way* skewed. Though, I might make Harry a bit "older" simply because of the bad family homelife he's had, and the fact he saw Cedric get killed, etc.

Kochou-chan -- you know I love you... and you know that I don't care a lot of the time about what anyone thinks anyway. Plus, I know you weren't purposely trying to slander *me*. There's a *bunch* of idiot on FF.Net, and I've learned to skip everything that looks like it sucks right off the bat (unless I know who the author is).

So... Mikke-chan, this is Kochou-chan. Kochou-chan, this is Mikke-chan. Now that you've been introduced, you can keep sniping at each other if you want. //(^_^)\\

It all comes down to perspective, people! And, sadly, the world is full of near-sighted idiots. But not me, because I wear prescription glasses.
