You just did, didnt you?
No, I didn't. If I did, I'd have to delete it. I'm sure I'd never do anything so embarassing!

I wonder where you people find people who think anime = porno.
This is not relative to place, it is relative to time. When anime first started to be imported to the US, what was brought over was largely tentacle porn. I can't tell you how irritating to see articles on anime in the mainstream press saying "Anime isn't just for kids anymore!" And they talk about anime porn! Oh lords that was embarassing!

You don't know anyone who thinks of anime as porno because you aren't old enough.
