"modern taboo has made just about everyone ignorant of or silent on." Well put. How can I decide for myself if child pornography is dangerous to everyone involved if I'm afraid or forbidden to look at it? What if you looked at it and there were kids having a good time, not being raped, exploring their sexuality? Just saying, what if . . . what if by making that exploration a felony the system is actually forcefully removing the child's sexual choice, eg: rape. What if the opposite of all these things was true? Is there any way to make an educated moral choice about a forbidden topic? Are our children important enough that we should face the responsibility of their education?
Sexuality and procreation are central to a healthy species. Sex and violence are incorrectly tied in modern civilized morality, an unfortunate twist at the base of our moral compass. There is nothing morally criminal or shameful inherent in the human body. There is no natural and true cut-off age when young people with healthy curiosity first explore their sexuality and all of its possibilities. Everybody learns at their own paces, and those with less fear, here specifically less fear of their own potentials, tempered by greater wisdom, tend to be more successful. It is unfortunate that we, as a self aware civilized modern society, can't officially define the difference between these truths and their utter perversions. Coercion, rape and derision, mistrust and violence, among many other possibilities, are not the same as guidance, faith and love, pleasure and procreation. Further, in many ways these are subjective concepts listed, leaving only time to tell what effects a society of censorship will have on each generation. One thing I can say for certain is that our current government is not wise enough to make these distinctions well for me and my future family, and this is why I vocally support the decriminalization of nearly everything.
Actually lolicon art is entirely legal in many places. This debate is interesting in that it is one of very few actual modern taboos in conversation. Well, this and being republican. Seriously, how are we to know right from wrong if it isn't permitted that we even indulge the conversation, let alone take a direct look at what we're debating? Lolicon Anime is relatively common and legal, not to mention the large number of treatments childhood or cross generational sexuality has been given in literature. Are we burning books here, afraid to look before we condemn?
