I'm just trying to avoid him accidentally attracting flames from understandably offended/concerned people, which might lead to an open Flame War derail. I believe that he's trying to be fair despite his dislikes for a large section of the pending-for-review items, which is why I'm said what I said in my previous post.

That's enough of the "let's dogpile on Martello" for one week, hmm? Let the poor man have some peace. Is it any wonder he's so grumpy when you people will not leave him be?

According to the article about it, it's "mommy porn" and "That said, where Stephanie Meyer’s prose is G-rated, James’s is unabashedly explicit. Here, the most racy and alternately corny scenes from the first installment of her softcore porn series."

So... softcore porn with recycled Cinderella plot?

Hm, someone tagged Nyarko-San. The only reason I can think of for that is the way that Kuuko dresses on occasion. It's not a fanservice heavy show and the primary appeal is how absurd it is, so I can't see what other issues it might have.

As for the way she dresses, she's a girl that looks about 13-14 who occasionally wears a skintight costume with flame markings on it. I don't think the work is intended for older audiences and I can't recall anything approaching explicit or even implicit sex, but then the season is only about half over at this point.

Kichiku Megane has two devilheads, but from what I can tell it doesn't appear to be that bad.

So basically it is a teenager wearing the equivalent of most superhero costumes? If so, doesn't sound like a problem to me.

The Twilight-offspring-whatever thing.

As for Nyarko San, it was flagged by the same person who flagged everything on the recommendation page. Which means it's most likely innocuous.

^^^ Basically. I think the only issue would be the target demographic. She does look young.

^ Yeah, I was trying to change the subject by providing information on something I know at least a little.

Nyarko-San is basically a moe Lovecraft parody right?

Unless its fanservice heavy I don't see the problem.

I just read that Daily Beast article on Fifty Shades Of Grey.

I laughed and cringed alternately. It's some of the worst erotic prose I've ever read. Is it really just porn? I think probably it is. Has anyone read the entire book?

[up] Let's put it this way, it is literally Twilight fanfiction with the names changed, and reworked into a novel.

To be honest, I don't really care whether or not it's fanfiction-in-all-but-name; I'm more concerned about whether or not it's pornography.

[up][up] Middle-aged women who read Twilight and wished that it was more similar to a typical bodice-ripper?

[up] I know it's not absolutely damning, but this SNL skit plays on the book's reputation.

The problem, of course, is that if it's reviewed, it has to be one of those that breaks the exemption, since it's sold in mainstream bookstores, and on Amazon.

Being sold in mainstream bookstores on or Amazon isn't part of the exemption, as far as I know. Amazon sells tons of porn - written, drawn and live-action.

How is it sold on book stores? If it's classified as adult material, then that makes it reviewable.
