If it doesn't appeal to you then how would you know? It may be morally wrong, but isn't most hentai? It's not illegal and if it's not your type then don't bother with it.
A man in Sweden was convicted of violations against the child pornography law for translating hentai with lolis in it. Tell me again that it isn't illegal, will you?
Mmmm, 'cause one country's law equals the law everywhere.

It means that it is illegal somewhere, which directly contradicts his statement.
I would say it contradicts it. BUT IT DOES NOT DIRECTLY CONTRADICT HIM. It would directly contradict him if he said. (Example: It isnt Illigal ANYWHERE) He just said it was generally not illigal.

I don't think it is any worse than any other type of legal pornography. Actually without having to deal with the difficulties of composition, makeup, lighting, pose, and mess the way regular porn does it might very well be superior in its designed purpose.

Hell yeah, 99% of the time the animation is sub-par, the storyline's horrible and... ... Uhm...

Oh.
You ment morally.

No, why should it be?
Seriously, it's not like any real people are getting hurt and you can get such golden lines as "If I don't have an orgasm, I will turn into a werewolf and kill all of you".
No, really.
In short... Well again, why should it be? I personally don't find anything sexy about it, but me and some friends had a bad-movie-drinking-game with a few of them once. Good times. We got hammered.

It's easy to say both are bad and should be banned, but it doesn't work like that.

I've seen hentai. I found it odd that it existed, but hey, you shouldn't really question someone's beliefs and desires if it doesn't affect you in any way, so why should I bother?

I've seen lolicon, the non-erotic and the erotic branch. This one was strange to me, and it left me slightly uncomfortable that there are people out there that are into this. Again, I shouldn't complain about something that doesn't bother me.

In short, I find both odd. I am also not into them, so I shouldn't bother thinking about it.

Pfft Sweden. If that man was in America, Australia, Canada, England, New Zealand, Hawaii, etc I bet thing's would've been different.

I don't want to sound racist but some rules are more extreme in some places then others. Isn't there a place where you can get fined at least $500 for spitting? I'm just saying not everywhere is as morally objective.

If I linked you to some Loli right now would you call the Cybercops?

Only bad Hentai is bad.
Compared to regular porn hentai doesn't degrade women (and men!).. you can say it degrades cartoons, but that might be a tad difficult argue. It also allows for a much broader spectre of fantasies and imagination.

As for the underage/loli argument.. everybody is got his turn-ons and fetishes and if you can satisfy them with just some cartoons, who are you hurting anyway

Hentai is fine when it doesn't involve that tentacle crap. That's just freaky!

Hentai, the only porn that's actually benefiting the viewers by going past 480i.

nothing is inherently good or bad. On one hand it doesn't exploit women, gives an outlet to certain...interesting fantasies and at least try's to have some fun with its story. On the other it promotes myths and stereotypes and some of its fringe stuff is damn nasty, I'm looking at you Lolicon rape sims.

On the whole whether its bad or not depends on your stance on pornography, if you think its ok then chances are you're not going to have a problem with most of it, even if it doesn't do it for you. If you think all porn is sick then the fact that the fact that the people are animated isn't going to make a difference.

I don't really see how.
I mean, it's a viable way of getting your fetish kick if your fetish is, you know, impossible. Plus, with shit like lolicon, people can act on their urges without anyone getting hurt.

Whoops I forgot lolicon is BAD scratch that then.

I don't know. As a dude who doesn't watch any porn, it strikes me as less morally reprehensible than live-action. Nobody gets objectified or whatever. No ladies or dudes have to throw out their pride and fuck on camera for money.

Unless they are into that sort of thing, I guess.

Yeah, that was the basic gist of what I meant. There are bound to be isolated cases saying otherwise.

Is Hentai Bad?
Hmm. Interesting question.
I'm assuming you're referring to the whole issue with tentacles and furies. To this very point, I will point out the existence of Rape, Beastiality, Incest, Pedophilia, and a whole range more of pornographic genres which exist on this very internet. If I asked you whether any of them were bad, chances are you would say yes. If not, I'm a tiny bit worried.
But what if I asked you whether you thought porn in general was bad? 83%Probably higher than this, but I couldn't resist the reference of people on this forum would say that it most certainly isn't. They're two completely different questions. So, I believe that Hentai is good. At least, it isn't bad. I'm honestly not that interested in porn and the like, but as far as it goes, Hentai is just as good as normal porn in my mind. As to your other, unasked question: personally, I don't like tentacle and furies, however, I acknowledge that some people do, and respect their opinions.

As to the point that Hentai also includes Rape, Beastiality, etc etc, I agree, yes, it does. However, these acts are completely taboo, and I think that if these videos must exist, better they be animation than a recording of the real thing; because in one, the act isn't committed.

The way I see it all depends on one question:

Is Porn bad?
Yes -> Hentai is bad
No -> Hentai isn't bad

I generalize intentionally here. It wasn't my intention to delve on the more extreme ends of hentai.

Well, homosexuality is illegal in that one country (starts with a U, I think) but no one else calls it that.

Anyway, it's a fucking lot better than actual underage kids having sex with tentacle monsters, I can tell you that. And regardless, I find people being swallowed whole sexy, so I shouldn't be throwing stones in the first place.
