Hmmm, but that one is two panels, while this one is only one. Is it enough of a difference?

Yeah.. that pic is on Aren't You Going to Ravish Me? already.

I think it would be a good replacment if not for the fact that it doesn't demonstrate the trope. it lampshades it, but there's still nothing wrong with the current image because nothing NSFW is actually shown. What is shown is a girl wearing a socially-accepted amount of clothing, who is in moderate discomfort while being wrapped up and touched around by tentacles. It's pretty clear what is going to happen, at which point it will then become NSFW. But that portion is not shown by what is currently displayed.

Same image with subtitle removed.

[up] Well, that removes the explicitly implied rape of the picture.

The Internet misuses, abuses, and overuses everything.

I think the whole Naughty Tentacles business is pretty foul, but also that what I think is fair or foul is not the best standard for measuring what other people think. I don't think it would scandalize my imaginary grandmother; nothing explicit is depicted (the scandalous part is probably not something she'd work out), and I dunno what she'd be doing reading a page about tentacle rape anyway. Please elaborate about what's wrong with the image.

Looks good to me, she's even wearing a full one-piece bathing suit. I really wish we didn't have the no-nudity thing and we could actually use The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife though.

Also, if you haven't looked that up on Wikipedia, do yourself a favor and read it. The translation of the octopi and the fisherman's wife talking is hilarious. Especially given the usual boring, neutral Wikipedia tone to the article.

I think the image is SFW, but I don't really think this page needs an image. And while images are very often nice, I don't see how an image for a page about tentacle rape would be.

I'm not crazy, I just don't give a darn!

Is there any particular reason why you're suggesting the cropped version that doesn't have the subtitle?

That one is good, though I have to admit, I find it amusing that we're mining a porn comic for SFW trope images.

[up] Doesn't show the trope at all. Tentacles approaching a girl could mean that it's Naughty Tentacles, Combat Tentacles, or even Tentacle Rope.

^^ I find that highly amusing, but also quite reasonable. A porn comic is more likely to have the lead-up and aftermath as well, than it is to just jump straight to the main event.

I don't think this page needs a picture... the one there now makes me a tiny bit uncomfortable, so I can see how other people might be bothered by it.

Does it add enough to the page that it's worth the NSFW-ness?

I (and a number of people) have yet to be convinced that there's anything inherently pornographic about hitting 'Second Base' - which is what's happening in the current pic.

I much prefer the image in #111 to the current.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

The one shimaspawn posted (post #89) is the only one so far that I've liked. Maddy's #111 isn't so bad I guess.

First of all, what are you doing browsing an entertainment website on company time? Have some discipline, good sir!

Way to miss the point, dude. We aren't supposed to link NSFW images on these pages, so why on Earth would it be OK to embed them?

I think pulling it is the bad precedent. What is wrong with it?

It depicts a woman being sexually groped by a bunch of tentacles.

Also it's kind of rapey and fetishistic. They all are, actually.

And now the perennial question: will a jokey image water it down or trivialise it?

I think you folks are letting your imaginations get the best of you.

Yes, there is a woman who looks uncomfortable with the fact that tentacles are touching her. But what about that image in itself is NSFW?

The girl? The tentacles? The swimsuit she's wearing?

I think you folks are letting your imaginations take over about what you assume is going to happen next. You want it pulled because all you can think about is the actual physical penetration that happens later.

As mentioned a few posts above, what is so NSFW about reaching 2nd base in the current pic?

The image in #111 doesn't show the trope, though. It could be any of the tentacle tropes, really.

[up][up] Hmmm, I'm on the fence, but if we can make that connection, then chances are other people can do that as well, and they will also think of it as dirty. Context counts.

Repeating Loni's point, does the picture really add anything that's worth the NSFW implications?

  1. 121- I agree. A girl in a swimsuit in peril? I've seen worse in Y7 cartoons.
