Voting devil on Neo Genesis Armageddon. Pornographic scenes featuring 14 year olds. That said, the mental image of Fuyutsuki in a dress gave me a good laugh.

[up][up]The only reason Pink Flamingos isn't known as the "chicken-rape" movie is that they managed to top that for disgustingness when Divine literally eats dog feces. (Which should give you a hint of what it is called).

All I'm saying is that on-screen bestiality, horrific as it may be, does not alone condemn a work. We still need to know if the work is porn, or if this scene is intended to send the audience scrambling for their vomit buckets.

That said, I'm grateful for the warning about the "pig-fucking" movie—I'm a fan of John Waters, and I still haven't been able to bring myself to watch Pink Flamingos. Something equally disgusting that lacks Waters' artistic flair is something I'm glad to be able to avoid. But whether we should have an article on the movie is a separate question from whether I'd be willing to watch it. :)

Speaking words of fandom: let it squee, let it squee.

It's less the bestiality and more how absolutely graphic it is. And then the pig has babies. And then they drown and the farmer spends his day slotting doll heads onto birds (or vice versa, I really tried to blank out most of this movie) and cooking and eating his own feces. It really is Pink Flamingos without any artistry and a heavy dollop of True Shit is Incomprehensible.

[up] Okay I really don't see how that movie could be for titillation.

That said, some of those details I could do without knowing. Spoiler tags maybe?

Excuse me, I'll have to go be sick.

That doesn't sound like porn, it just sounds disgusting.

Would someone explain WTF Ask Princess Molestia is, and why it's flagged?

Princess Molestia is a MLP FIM meme. Someone apparently made one of those ask a character blogs based on her.

All the links on the page are clean and give the impression the sexual humor isn't explicit. Perhaps someone saw the premise and assumed the worst?

Scrolling through the tumblr, it's sometimes suggestive (rarely worse), but not really pornographic.

So far, none in sight, much less involved.

The only full sex event was Cadence and Shining Armor getting it on, but even that was off-panel and focus on Molestia peeping on them.

From what I'm seeing, no. I haven't seen anything involving the young ones.

Yeah, that particular ask blog is never explicit; it's heavily suggestive, but to my knowledge it never crosses over into porn.

It's really one of those things that sounds worse than it is and it's played for humour. It's mostly just general silliness.

In that case, do you think we should zap it off the list?

I think we seem to be at the point where people are just flagging anything vaguely sexual.

Well, I gave it an angelhead. We might as well give a definite decision on it, just in case someone decides to flag it again for whatever reason.

This is why we ought to implement the "provide reasons or be zapped" policy ASAP. We've been discussing it over in the policy thread.

And maybe inform flaggers of the actual policies, which would be easier if they were visible.

Haven't all of us been saying we support something to that effect? Again, let me officially state that I would like to see the policy amended to include that (with, say, a 24 hr. grace period).

Also, angelheaded Molestia.

Concerning Salo Or The 120 Days Of Sodom, the fact that it's referred to as gore (and actual?) porn (involving teens) in many hits for "salo yadda yadda" + porn or saloblahblah + pedophilia makes me a bit worried.

Conversely, Vase De Noces does not get much referral as porn with the same metric.

The thing about Salo is it's actually part of the Criterion Collection, which leads me to believe that we should give it the "classics" exemption, at least in part. The 120 Days of Sodom by Mqs. de Sade might also warrant the same exception.

Also, based on what I read on it, it's intended to shock, rather than titillate. Without having seen it yet, I can't vote in good faith, however.

I found a link to an online copy of the book 120 Days of Sodom. Or are you saving a review of that particular book till later?

PM me the link. The others could probably use it as well.

Also, for reference 120 Days of Sodom is the book; Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom is the film, transposed into Fascist Italy.
