No it fucking isn't.

These are not people. They are lines on a piece of paper.

Furthermore, they aren't even lines drawn to resemble naked people. They are lines drawn to resemble underage girls clothed in fetishy outfits.

If you're that concerned about the lines on the piece of paper, underage is underage.

Which shows why laws are not universal moral standards, because they differ from culture to culture.

For example, national age of consent in Japan, where most of these images originated, is thirteen. Same with Spain.

This is why the UN trying to force American CP laws on Japan is laughable.

Yes, depending on the culture. But obscenity laws are becoming more and more of a joke in an age of free speech and a lack of censorship.

Welcome to the Internet, bro.

I was questioning how you enjoy anime when loli is everywhere in it.

Look I give up, argueing on the internet is a waste of time your just going to bounce back with equally moronic statments, I mean you've obviously spent alot of time rationalising it.
Learn to spell before you call people morons.

Yeah, exactly. This exactly.
