History Tropers / HersheleOstropoler

I wrote most of this while the thread was locked. After that, I looked back at [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13344112380A34560100&page=73#1815 this]] and I think what I have pretty much agrees with it.

We are probably going to lose pages I like[[hottip:*:not as fap material]]; I have odd tastes, and I like {{beige|Prose}} descriptions of sexual topics like on the page we had for {{Literotica}}.

But I don't think we'll lose anything I don't want to lose aside from all that if we get rid of pages on pure pornography (works whose sole ''raison d'être'' is causing arousal) and on anything with:

I can hear the RulesLawyers now: "What makes someone a child?" "What makes a portrayal positive?" "What's legitimate? What's normal?" "What makes a scene pornographic?" The answer to all of those is "whatever the panel decides, ultimately, but it probably means pretty much what you think it means." FetishRetardant and FanDisservice (beyond the fact that there are kids in) aren't directly relevant, but I imagine the panel would take them into account when considering if a portrayal is positive.

There are no works pages I would rather cut than keep. Not even that one. Nope, not that one either. There are some that I don't think are as, well, important than others; there are some where the preference to keep is razor-thin and based entirely in the general principle. I am concerned about an attitude of "'art' is a word perverts use to defend their filth" or, more {{Godwin|sLaw}}ishly, "when I see the word 'art' I reach for my revolver." That's not quite the comparison that best fits, but I do think it's [=McCarthyist=].

On the wiki I'm a GrammarNazi and champion of the {{Analysis/Analysis}} section. [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hershele_Ostropoler The name?]] Well, I'm [[InformedJudaism Jewish]] and [[{{Trickster}} sarcastic]].

If you see comments from this username anywhere on the Web, odds are it's me.
