I'd like to know what qualifies under this topic. Well, at least the borderline stuff that qualifies for this topic.
But what can I say? It seems that the lowest common denominator always seems to prevail. |

I didn't know you could quantify the objectification of women in such a poetic fashion =P

Brings new meaning to the phrase "Thank heaven for little girls", don't it? For without products with them what would loser otaku spend millions on?

THis makes me GLAD that usually a normal american otaku couldn't qualify as an otaku in Japan (because he/she's not otaku ENOUGH). |

To say the least.

As if "man-faye" and the Yaoi Paddle weren't bad enough, we have to deal with this stigma as well.

"Unmarried males in their 30s account for the majority of the moe market."
I think that sums it all up right there. And just think, somewhere in the world a 12-year old girl is putting a picture of a girl from a hentai game on her LiveJournal because she thinks it's "cute". D:> |
