VS, I've totally got your back on this one. Folks, the Emperor is f***ing naked. You can't find one "classically beautiful" image of a sexy toddler or pre-teen prior to the 20th century. "Fairies," or "faeries" if you prefer, were not imagined as sexy little pre-teens with wings before the 20th century, in adult fantasy literature. Blame Disney. He's the one who gave us Tinkerbell, who was not modeled after Marilyn Monroe, by the way, but the pinup girls of the WWII era. If you want to do sexy pre-teens, fine, but keep them to yourself and out of a public forum. And we all know sexy when we see it. Many of these "fairy" images look more like JonBenet Ramsey than anything else: sexualized youngsters. Not all of them mind you, but we all have enough sense to know damn good and well which ones are provacative. We can defend all this crap with any of the pathetic excuses that VS has outlined above, or others, but I'll tell you, if the people who are trying to push these censorship laws through came in here and looked around, this site would get shut down so fast it'd make your motherboard sizzle and fry. If we don't govern ourselves, they'll do it for us.
