Why does everything here have to be censored somewhat? (Like the censor bars on a vagina.) Just curious.

In Japan porn is censored. That's why there are black bars or mosaic on genitals.

Don't listen to this. It's actually that while everyone here likes reading lewd things we're all grossed out by genitalia. Don't listen to me, I'm lying.

wink >u0 That'd explain why it's there that gets censored and not the boobies :p not that i'm complaining XD

The black bar censorship is weird. Sometimes it's just a thin line that hides nothing at all, why bother...

Because nobody is as good as me at censoring. http://dynasty-scans.com/chapters/cat_like_girlfriend

Because of stupid laws in Japan, realistic depiction of sexual organs and pubic hair, used to be banned. The limits of what can be shown is now somewhat ambiguous. Sometimes, just the point of insertion is censored, or the bars are just there for the sake of saying they are there.

I think somehow, the censorship evolved into a fetish on its own for some readers (ie, if it's not censored, some people wouldn't like it as much, or if you see hair, it's gross).

At this point, I think it's just a tradition and to be on the safe side. Very few lawsuits have been made about this.

Well, that's because of an old law that, if applied "as is", would ban all porn in japan. So as a work around, they interpreted it as "genitals must have some sort of censorship". Why they never removed that law, I have no idea, though.

Just put them, a few H-mags offices got raided by the police because their cencorship was deemed unsufficient. You can imagine the closing of said H-mags was a blow to NEETS who just wanted their fap.

But a lot of uncensored porn goes imbetween the cracks, but that's because yakuzas control dat porn and bribe politicians.

Isn't the censorship law no longer in effect? I know that pubic hair hasn't been forbidden for quite a long time, it's just most artists are bad at drawing it so don't bother.

I recall that there was a goverment agency tasked to read EVERY EROTIC MAG imported in Japan (like playboy) and manually censor them by erasing pubic hair with marker.

It's a thing of the past though.

Well the particular story I was refering to is about 2 years old I'd say? I don't know when/if the laws changed recently.

What about after a few years? You'd end up not feeling anything.

There is no point for a line that thin XD

Hmm so like the prohibition,but with genitals? Wouldn't that make peoplemore likely to try and see what a vagina or penis looks like in reality?
Also, a censor bar fetish does not suprise me. I suppose they can view stuff on youtube to errm you know :)

Maybe Japan is weird about removing laws? idk

Japan is weird about even following it's laws if someone of the imperial lineage didn't specifically say them.

This is a really hilarious post if you consider someone's avatar an accurate representation of them.
