Why is Anime kiddie porn?

You're viewing this through western vision.  In Japanese culture, some situations we would consider lewd and even illegal are part of everyday life.  \n\nCommunal baths for instance.  In our society, bathing with children is outrageous and often cause for alarm.  But in Japanese society it is commonplace for families to bathe together, there is nothing sexual about it.\n\nAlso, the human body is not as demonized in Japan as it is in the US.  A naked body in American culture is lewd even pornographic.  But in Japan, nudity is not a big deal.  \n\nNot that I'm saying it's okay to throw what you would consider pornographic in front of your children.  It's simply not acceptable and can even be damaging in our culture.  But ours is not the ONLY culture in the world.

To shield virgin eyes from not-so-virgin content.  There are kids as young as 12 (maybe younger) on here, and Yahoo! is making a responsible effort to keep that kind of content away from them.

I can tell you why. Its because of alot of things. 1. our magazines promote this heavily. I mean, alot of girls read these magazines when they are young, and therefore think sex is appropriate and cool.. 2. TV. I mean look at all the shows on now? its all based around sex and dating. Its not cool.. once again kids then think its cool and appropriate to do. 3. To be honest, even things like 'yahoo! answers- because i mean.. have you seen some of the questions that have been asked in this site?? Some people can be so gross and kids will think this is cool. so, because of things like this, kids get obsessed.. and lets not forget that they are who will take over our society next (know what I mean) and this is why our society is sex driven.

Because there cartoons, who doesn't like a good cartoon. shows like Phil and Raven aren't the same, there boring and trysto hard to relate to "a teen's real life".\n\nAnd don't come in cute Accessories and clothes..LOL

there there because of girls who have parents that are like you and cant support there decisions, so they go crazy and get naked on the internet... or there drunk..or high....anyway... there would be no way to get rid of all the pornsites cause the internet is free. and, if you were to upload a picture or anything on anywebsite it will be found on a search engine, therefore, porn is unkillable

Of course, as any good parent is obligated to do morally, and logically. Children are not yet mentally, (and sometimes physically) ready for adult content such as that. Without the proper knowledge and maturity, they can become easily lured into that sort of behavioral and moral decay. Now, I'm not trying to sit here and act like a perfect-moral-how-to-teacher, but it is just something not for kids.

My kid used to enjoy that before. It has a slot on our local channel but now they canceled it. It can also be a good Porno Movie title. LOL!

B/c anime is generally associated w/ geeks, nerds, people who blow their noses in hankies and examine it for a little too long and RPG-ers.  If you think about it, nothing is wrong w/ anime.  I like it and I was never any of those listed above.  Also, if you listen to the music on the cartoons, a lot of the singers voices are a lot better than some American vocalists.

Nah. There is much better stuff out there. I've seen the tape with Kid Rock and Scott Stapp messing around with some fans too.\n\nIf you want a good porn, you'll find better stuff by simply typing in "porn", "sex", or "pusssy" into google search, or looking in an adult entertainment store. The only reason tapes like these are so famous is because the public and the media are so obsessed with celebrities.

Maybe they find it foreign? But I like cartoons, and anime, and I am a teen.

Okay... hmmm... there are a number of reasons someone doesn't like anime.\n\n1) Peers- if their friends don't like it and say it's un-cool, they have a higher chance of not watching it.\n2) Parents- some parents think it's too violent and has adult content, so they don't allow their children to watch it (some does but not all).\n3) Religion- In some people’s faith they think fantasy is evil so, therefore anime is evil.\n4) Cartoons- I have met people that can’t connect to it.  They can't see anime as anything other then cartoons (drawings) so they can’t accept it.  Not being able understand or perceive it because they can’t get past that it is cartoons.  \n5) Little to No imagination- some people don’t understand the concepts of fantasy and loves realism, so therefore they can’t understand them because they “make no sense.” (Note: they are the ones that watch the show and say, “That can’t happen!” or “Its makes no sense at all!” or “There is no such thing as magic!”)  They can’t use their imagination because they focus on the realistic world.\n6) Other people don’t like Japan, for one reason or another and refuses to buy or watch anything from there.\n7) Culture barrier- some people have a hard time understanding the Japanese culture.\n\nAs for me, I love it!!!\n=^_^=

Anime is short for animation, which is any "cartoon" style series. In the U.S. we tend to think of these as children's shows, although we now have shows like the Simpsons that are intended for an older audience.\n\nIn Japan, anime is created in many different ways. They can be for children, teens, or adults. Some anime is cute and clean, and others can be very risque and even raunchy. Anime is based on Manga, which is sort of like a comic book, although it isn't always comic. It is a series of drawings with a story associated with it. Generally manga is used to create the anime series in Japan.\n\nThere is anime for everyone, so don't exclude yourself too soon! If you like action, there is lots of it; if you prefer teen comedy or drama, there is some of that, too. And if you  are in to porn, there is that too. And lots in between! Pick some up and try it out, remember if you don't like it, try another one! =o) Have fun!

no i dont' think that it is bad to watch cause then there wouldnt be a whole industry behind it. that's some people's job to get up in the morning and make porn. wouldnt' that be cool like you get up have your morning joe and then think to your self man i can't stand filming this one girl she's just so dirty she never wipes her azz before coming to the set. see funny, it's just bad to watch things like kiddie porn. then that means you have a problem.

Because the one is more obviously associated with potentially offensive content, and Yahoo can't risk a lawsuit by an overprotecive parent (the service is supposed to be age 13+ ).  Of course, I'd be surprised if there's a 13-year old that doesn't use that word from time to time, but that's the censored world we live in now.

I do, and I can't explain it either really.  I wouldn't say it has anything to do with being a pedophile, but it does give an innocent and playful look, which is a turn on (just stay away from the kiddies, perv) ;)

um..... I am 15 and I don't like to watch Sex movies, like porn. I find it disgusting that people would want to watch people make sluts and whores of themselves on the television.

The idea of fantasy and perfection.  Boys always to want to do what the see in cartoons (fight, become zords etc) why not be able to have sex too?\n\nPlus Anime can eliminate bad human traits (moles fat etc) and animes can't pass judgement etc.  They are only what you want them to be.\n\nA lot of people are into it.
