Kodomo no Jikan anime/manga, what is your opinion?

[Darkmoon]

So then you think the same punishment should be dealt to murders, right?

No, they should work 18 hours a day, every day of the rest of there life. The money they earn would help provide some financial aid to the family or families of those they killed. They took a life - now they spend the rest of there own supporting the family (or families) of the person they killed.

That may or may not be true. I've worked as a caretaker for childs (so I'm used to work with childs) and several of those kids were curious of what sex was and what penises and such was for. They wanted to know, but I couldn't tell them because I would have been fired on the spot if I did.

I myself got sexually interested in women when I was six years old. There was a girl in her early teens who, as I though back then, had a big butt. We had gymnastics together so her butt was pretty "noticable" in her tight clothes. That's my earliest memory.

Some girls develop breasts already at the age of 10. Some don't do it until they're 15 or even older. Kodomo no Jikan also brings this up - the character Mimi develops very early and as a result, she is picked by hte boys in school because she's the only girl in her clas with breasts. It makes her very insecure and the fact that her parents are always working and never spends time with her doesn't make things any better.

Kodomo no Jikan is actually a beautiful series and it has moved me to tears, and then I'm a guy who didn't even cry when my grandparents died. It just brings up a taboo subject that is kids' sexuality. For that, it was banned in the US and much of the manga is considered child porn here in Sweden because it shows naked girls in sexual situations.

So yes, I'm a criminal for having this manga, but I don't care because it's such a fucking stupid law anyway.

As I said - different folks. I wasn't interested in such things till I was 10. There are always exception, but as a general rule, puberty is the onset. Yes, kids are curious about what there sexual organs are or do earlier, but that's an interest in there body, not an interest in sex.

So why shouldn't pedos work 18 hours a day so they're good for something?

Curiosity and interest often intertwine. I don't say all kids are like this, but there ARE young kids who have sexual feelings.

Kodomo no Jikan reflects this, and it's banned in the US?! It's treated like a pedo anime by most people?

It's madness. But as with all madness, it's the lack of knowledge that it's the base for the madness.

How is it that when a man kills a man in the middle of battle it's called heroic, but when a man kills a man in the heat of passion it's called war?

Better question yet:

Why do we love to romanticize violence and war that kills people but call the police when someone romanticize children's sexuality that doesn't hurt anyone?

This is me being me. I have distinctly unpleasant views on criminal justice. But basically - paedophiles ruin kids lives, as so there lives are ruined. Completely and utterly it the most unpleasant way I can devise -by being made into a lump of flesh, still aware of what they are, but unable to interact with the outside world. Not even able to feel a breeze on there skin. Murderers take a life, and so there life is taken but in a way that is of some benefit.

And part of it is, I admit, having to deal with the fallout of paedophiles on a personal level. I know too many folks who were abused as a kid, and seen what it's done to them. My method is also designed to scare people shitless to the point of even thinking about molesting a child should make them wet there pants.

I get the feeling that you think pedophilia is worse than murdering someone.

I also get the feeling this is the opinion of the general public - sex crimes are worse than violence crimes. Rape is worse than murdering someone.

And also, this translates into most people's opinions that sex is taboo, dangerous and bad while we (OK, not we, the US) romanticize violence in all forms.

For me, both are terrible crimes but nothing is ever worse than taking someone's life. Yet the society thinks that we should give murderers a second chance in life while people who have raped someone should die painfully and slowly.

I think this is because it's easier for us to watch grisly murderers in movies, but show some sex crime and everyone throws up.

Murder is worse. An ended life can never be made better. And when I say work for 18 hours a day, I mean worked in dangerous, unpleasant conditions half a mile underground with the constant fear of death hanging over them. I am not a pleasant person when it comes to crime.

I will say one thing though - there are situations where I can understand, if not completely condone, taking someone's life. In self defence is an obvious one. Rape and sexual abuse, whether of an adult or child, has no reason, no defence and no possible purpose other than the rapist's pleasure.

It's difficult with rape too, because some women wants to be raped. But then they use their legal rights to get money from the rapist.

Of coursem, killing someone in self defence shouldn't be a crime, I'm with you on that one.

...some woman want to be raped? What?

While some women have rape fantasies (again, I know one) there's a big difference between roleplaying and the real deal.

While I can just about imagine a woman trying to get herself raped if she thought it would net her a tidy sum, it's a stupid plan. A tiny percentage of rapes committed ever have a suspect, let alone a conviction. Without that you'll never get a penny. If you want money for sex better to be a prostitute.

Fantasy isn't reality. I fantasized as a kid about taking a broadsword to school and dealing out some damage to those who'd wound me up. Guess what? It never happened. The idea sickens me, the thought of killing people just because they acted like assholes to me. But sometimes, it really was entertaining.

Same thing here. A fantasy, a roleplay, whatever isn't reality. If a day dream takes a nasty turn then that's that, you stop. If a rape happens you don't have a choice. THAT's a big difference. So no, most women don't want to raped. There may be some exceptions, but 99.999% of women would much rather not be, and telling yourself otherwise is just trying to fool yourself. Like paedophiles who convince themselves what they do is 'love' when the reality is a six year old girl is now bleeding and emotionally devastated.

You didn't do it because you were aware of the consequenses. But if this society was rid of laws, then maybe you would've done it.

I sometimes fantazise about killing my boss because he's a jerk. Of course I would never do it IRL BUT that's because I'm aware of the consequenses.

So you're basically saying it if wasn't for the risk of going to prison, you'd be quite happy to murder someone in cold blood.

Yes, because it's my instincts and I couldn't her less about that shithead. But my life would be ruined if I did.

And you wonder why people think you have mental health issues. That is not a statement from a healthy mind.
