To sodomy, it's between God and me
Feb. 23rd, 2007 09:40 pmOkay, so this was on the local news. I didn't catch the whole story then, but dad filled me in...
( Local parent angered by manga )
My dad and I had a discussion about it. As I noted, most mangas (the adult ones, anyway) say 16+, which is still the youth section. And dad noted how people have a problem because these would make their children think (in the case of Chobits, which actually is rather deep outside of the porny-ness) and they don't want that. Also, really, these things are NO WORSE than a romance novel would be if it was presented in graphic novel format. I love my dad. He doesn't mind at all that I read manga, and neither does my mom. They rule. These people suck, and I really hope the wonderful ladies at the library don't give into them.
