The problem with this statement is that you don't define what is or is not to be tolerated. When you are talking about harmful things, yes, tolerance is the enemy. But the way you have stated it is too broad.

It all depends upon the standards of a culture. There are a lot of things about Japan, I love, and a lot of things, I would have a very hard time living with. Based upon comparative standards, anyone can consider themselves to be ethical, or moral, etc.
Then other people may disagree... Sex-dolls in the guise of a child, are totally unacceptable to me. People that promote said child-dolls, after any fashion, are unacceptable *to me*.
~But that's just my opinion...

Like I said before, better for the perve to redirect his focus to the doll, than to a real child...especially if it's a perve who really does not want to harm a child, but does not have the open self controll to stop himself. Giving that guy a doll, if it allows him to keep his perversions to himself and not seek a little kid, is a good thing as far as I am concerned.

It helps him from committing an atrocity he himself does not want to commit by giving him a faux object to release his sexual frustration on; so he can keep himself composed around real children.

I can't argue with your logic, but the fact of the matter is reprehensible.

[fopah]

But that's is not what this guy is using them for... apparently he is such a pushover that he has had women walk all over him for so long that he gave up looking for a decent girl and decided to poke a doll.

[RD'S Alias - 1A]

I am at that point myself, except after dating the Doll Chick, I am afraid of dolls as much as I am Women....

[sanjuro_ronin]

Disturbing is an understatement.
Some serious issues there.

Never understood that "lolita complex" myself, thank goodness.
I like my women, looking like women not little girls and I like them in the flesh too, wierd eh?

Many cultures have very strange sexual peculiarities.

[Shaolin Wookie]

I don't have much of an issue with some dude porking a Barbie doll. I just think it's strange that he decided, after having spent 170,000 dollars on plastic poontang, that his was a feel-good story worthy of the morning news.

OK OK, I've watched the vid now, and it's just some random sicko.

I didn't see anything looking like a child doll (nor anything indicative of some of the rather disturbing predilections of the population as a whole), and though there are some young-looking dolls there, I am sheepishly reminded that my 26 year old wife very often looks ten years younger and this is common among Japanese females. I am completely with Sanjuro though. Honest!

[golden arhat]

i couldnt watch it BJ as i'm at college, will when i get home

what was it ?


some of my relatives have worked in japan and say alot of the guys that are my age (nearly 17 now) are nothing like we are here with regards to women.


i feel kind of sorry for them



lol some of the guys from my gym go over to japan to train sometimes also
they went to fuzoku bars or something, but yeah prostitution and porn seem to be totally acceptable there, maybe its that. video tapes are too available maybe if porn werent acceptable it might force some of these guys to go and find real girlriends haha, might explain tthe birth crisis there aswell.


i love the west, japan seems an interesting and beautiful country tho and i'd definitley like go visit

Really....really....

I sure as heck saw it. Plain as day to me. Looked like pre-teen/child sized dolls for sale at the factory.


As for the population as a whole, its hard to say that about any country but Japan does seem to have some very disgusting trends towards the porn when viewed as a bizzare whole.

Pre-teen style hentai, forced rape hentai on young looking girls, hardcore gore porn, fecal matter porn, sharking, stomp porn (which is so disgusting-their is a video on the net for urban legends which showcases this-stomping young cats to death), rape porn, jap school girl porn....lots of things that one could say are a bit ****ed up.

Not saying other *******s in other countries don't have this, just pointing this out in specific as it seems to be a trend.

[rogue]

We were laughing about this at work, but it really is disturbing when you think about it for even a second.

Honey, this is...

Ok, this is a true story and it would be interesting to hear from others who may be facing, have faced or are thinking of facing this same "situation"....

After allmost a year of seperation, a chance meeting between my old "flame" of four years and i resulted in a whirlwind of reconciliation and understanding. During this time ( about a week) i kept mentioning that i had a possible "deal breaker" to discuss with her Shocked . She kept telling me to "let it go" till after the New Year....

So, there i was, back with my sweetheart and having "another woman" to deal with... Not the RG, but the RD... Shocked So many thoughts kept going thru my mind... hide the doll... sell the doll... store the doll away... show her the doll... Confused

Honesty being the best of all policies, i told her about the doll..... Uhoh
Hard to say what i actually said to her, but the net result was her wanting to see Kaci... ( warning: don't name your doll after a woman whom your RG may not have liked #Fist )... and an open attitude.....

Well, we "saw" Kaci, but it was a nightmare... Shocked. No, not in that she flipped out and became enraged or anything like that, but i had not really "set the stage" so to speak....

Kaci has her own room, she is allways "hung" from the cable of her hoist/stand. That's exactly how she looked when i opened the door to the room... Eeek Needless to say, RG was freaked out by that !! Eeek Combine the realism of these dolls with an inital macabre scene and you get what i mean.... Rolling Eyes There i was, one freaked out RG, one RD and me just wanting a good stiff drink Uhoh What do you do now..? Rolling Eyes

It all did work out, i still have Kaci, the RG is "ok" with it and i guess time will tell... One bit of advice to those who face this situation. Give the RG the "final decision" over your doll.... Oh, and make sure that things don't "look bad" Wink

hahahaha

is that a pleasure model?

It's just a matter of culture. In the U.S., nobody thinks twice about watching somebody's head get blown off, or thinks much about thousands of civilian casualties in Iraq or Yugoslavia, whereas one American gets his leg blown off and they have an entire segment of 'Home Improvement' about it.

(Not that I'm complaining, since, hey, I'm American, but ...)

In Europe, they freak out over violence, since they had WWII on their own soil, but it's not uncommon to see people topless in beaches. Here, try going topless on non-nude beaches and you can actually get arrested.

So ... ??? ??? Who knows.

Oh, and I should add, forgot where they said it was in Japan, but supposedly, it is common for families to go to the hot springs nude, whereas like when you're going to hot springs here in the U.S. whence backpacking, it's common to go nude as well ... do you think that one person's 'porn' is another person's naked body??

Far cry from glorifying violence like we seem to do in the States, but ... ??? I guess the Euros have a point to that effect. We freak out over sex and glorify violence, I guess. ???

[Pork Chop]

Dood, I haven't got any time now, but you're just scraping tip of the iceberg.

It's called 'roricon' ('Lolita complex'). Don't forget you can get maid cafes over here, some of which are quite cool in an odd way, but some of which are only staffed by high school girls. I've not been to either kind as yet and of course, I'm going to check them out.

There is a huge 'aidoru' (idol) culture over here, which starts with pre-teen girlie bands like 'Morning Musume' ('Morning Daughter') and goes all the way through to high-school and junior high school targeted manga like 'Young Jump' which is filled with young teens in bikinis... and no, it's not just the JHS kids reading them, but there's an alarming amount of old businessmen reading them too.
.....

Dude, you forgot to mention the habit in the japanese language to label genitalia after offspring (musuko = son; manko also is daughter)... so "morning musume" kind of has a strange vibe to it...

oh yah, don't forget the porn vending machines....

or the tentacle porn....
