Your "understanding" of English says it all... Who ever talked about women? Also, why can't you accept facts about crime decrease and rejoice that a decrease did actually happen?

If it's in the wrong section, then it's my bad, it seems I didn't pay enough attention when I clicked the "create a new thread" button. If a moderator can move it to the appropriate section, it would be great.

Why would it be "trolling" just to give an opinion and offer different solutions so that absolutely everyone can be happy?

mmmmh

why are you asking irrelevant questions?

why are you not replying on the topic at hand?

why are you overcomplicating things?

why are you claiming that this forum can't be used for debate whereas it is one of the options when creating a topic? ... 😘

I saw a topic created two years ago by a guy demanding to ban all non-consent games, and to remove the "rape" tag (which seems to have been done). The topic was archived so there was a link to create a new one.

I don't understand why people use their own fragility to demand that the society adapt to their every whim? Should people who suffered a trauma or have a fragility be protected? Well of course! But clearly not at the expense of other people's freedom.

I don't like non-consent stories that end badly, I need them to switch to "resign" and/or a happy ending to enjoy them, otherwise they leave me with a disgusting taste in my mouth. But it is my particular taste, and just because I don't like it when it ends badly does not mean I should impose my own limits on everyone! Let's not forget that fantasy-rape is one of the top 3 fantasies of women...

The main argument of that guy was that illegal stuff IRL should be banned from all depictions in drawings / animes / games... But... Why?!

First of all, in that case we ought to ban millions of content, including media that depict stealing, assaulting, murdering... and even mere insults (as it is forbidden in most countries)!! Hitman, Tropico, GTA, Mafia, Evil Genius... To name a few... But you get the gist. Also, it means that whenever someone with an even bigger fragility will demand something, we ought to erase even more and more content everywhere... Where would it stop?! It does remind of an old era when a certain country burned books they deemed "unfit".

And last but not least, lolicon depictions, while not my thing and not the thing of many people, are known to have got assaults on children drop by 80% in Japan since they were authorized. Isn't that the best reason of all to allow them, as long as they remain in the fantasy world? Just like everything else, for that matter... I enjoy the Hitman game, but I will never go on a killing spree. Hell, I did not even defend myself when I got assaulted a couple of months ago and got my skull bleeding, I only called the police and nothing more... And the same applies to every fantasy. Hence the name: fantasy.

In my opinion, this censorship is abusive. I don't play much hentai games at all, so I don't care that much, but I stumbled upon this old topic and thought I would give my opinion on this. Because freedom is important and should be protected.

My thoughts: sure, please add clear warnings in games descriptions (at the top of the page and just above the subscribe button) so that people who do have a fragility don't suffer unnecessarily, as they of course ought to be protected (I myself also suffered from a trauma, so I can relate). But "protected" does not mean that we should wipe the world clean of everything that triggers them. In the same way that we don't show movies containing erotic scenes or violence to children, but we don't ban such movies for the rest of the world either.

A friend of mine got triggered because of a joke a comedian made about cancer. Should we put to jail all comedians who dare joke about cancer? Of course not. The same applies here. Let people enjoy whatever they like, while actively protecting others from such content if it could trigger them. Add an option when creating an account to check whatever triggers you, and then such content will be filtered.

It should be the best of both worlds, while not resorting to a dangerous slope of censorship.
