Is anyone else scared of people finding out about your liking IM@S?
RoninatorMarx:
My younger brother doesn't mind (but he's hooked to Eri. XD). So does my older one.
Given the amount of time invested in, and variety of anime I've watched, I don't think my parents care.
My RL friends doesn't seem to mind, though he's not curious either.
So yeah. Not really scared. I don't have a reason yet.

Of all people she could've said that about, I was producing Makoto...

Hmmm, with that A-cup law I'd thought reading any manga with any nudity of any kind would get an Australian drawn and quartered, or at least castrated... physically, not chemically that is.
Still... a fascinating line of work, I can only wonder at how de-sensitizing it might be, like those municipal body collectors in cities with high crime who sometimes make up to a dozen stops per night, I don't think anything could make some of those people cringe in the slightest...

It's not a law. It was a suggested ruling. It was oversensationalised, and believe me, they heard hell from me once I was given a record of the minutes of that meeting in question.
The law states anything that 'appeared to be' under 18 would be deemed illegal.
The classification board tried to (badly in my opinion) give it metrics, since well, they needed a leg to stand on, after a tricky case or two.
I kindly wrote back and pointed out that you'd also discriminate about 1/3 of the world's population who were (for lack of better words) less than filled out.
It proved tricky, but essentially they let me have the point. The real existence of that ruling was an attempt to make it easier to determine the above clause, and as long as I could dance my way around it with my own observations, they let me. (Court precedent has a few advantages, if you're the one who did them.)
Personally I find it a bunch of crap, because you can be thirty, wearing a school dress and be classified as 'seems under 18' for the purposes of the law, and it get ratcheded up as a technical RC. (This comes up surprisingly often in US adult imports.)
Basically two thirds of the classification board's work is with adult material. I normally stay in the other third, but I've been asked quite a few times to work on the other two thirds, usually due to the fact I'm strangely one of the few accessors who aren't attached to a company and will work for hire.
I've decided to stop doing it recently though, mostly due to injury though.

Well, the best part is that when people want to try set you up, they'll want to set you up.
If you want to do a similar lesson, just do the exact reverse when she listens to one of the boy bands, then point out the lyrics. There's a lot of fun in THAT if you listen closely enough, let me tell you...

No, not scared at the very least considering that I have watched so many shows with cute girls that it doesn't really matter too much. However, my mom went in the room while I was playing Idolmaster 2 and just asked why I was playing that game... but she never questioned me again.

Setsuna defended the honor of smaller-bosom'd women everywhere against the Australian legal sytem! Epic! :o
