Well I didn't want to become a pervert, but it is too late for that. I like who I am. The only thing I hate is having to be so secretive. I hate hiding stuff all the time. It makes me so paranoid. Maybe one day my parents will figure out how much crap they put me through. Though they currently have no idea I am still into anime and actually plan to buy Tenchi mangas 8 and 9 tomorrow maybe one day they'll see that all their doing is restraining me. Though I dobut they will ever see past their "perfect" plan of making me the "perfect" daughter that will become a "perfect" nurse one day. It would be ok to be a nurse but I'd rather become an artist. Soon I'll have fan-art up so you might wanna check it out. RM has seen my work, and I think she think's it's good. I'll just have to battle it out and maybe a little bit at a time I can let my true self show. <p>Dr. Clay had no idea how lucky he was...<br><img src=http://www.fortunecity.com/victorian/kingston/196/whr22.jpg</p><i></i> |

Well, allow me to share my two cents if ya don't mind. <br><br>My parents aren't really into anime, but they don't mind me watching it, 'coz they know I'm mature and can deal with it all. It takes a while to prove that to them, but for me, it goes through one ear and out the other. I'm a Christian too, and I have to face it, not many things are very godly. The key is not to take any of it to heart. I mean, if you make it your life, you're gonna be screwed later on. I don't mind if there's occasional nudity or anything, but real pornography doesn't really suit me (Yes, there is a difference!). I mean, watching sex...nah. That's not my form of entertainment. It's just stupid basically. But if you prove your maturity, you should be fine. And me, I only hide the few things of anime that I have from my younger brother. I know he'd get the wrong idea from watching that stuff, so...<br><br>Sorry for yakkin' as long as I did. L8r. <p><center><img src=http://www.fortunecity.com/millenium/jamie/1221/127680e0.jpg> </center><center><i>"Love is a battlefield..."</i></center></p><i></i> |

Well, I wouldn't recomend this, especially with your parents; it's probably a sure thing it would just make it worse. But you could just tell them straight to f*ck off. You know the difference from right and wrong but you're sick of their sh*t. And that if they can't be open minded and actually see that there's nothing wrong with anime, that it's their problem but it's not gonna keep you from watching. <br><br>And on a side note, I gotta say that I don't believe in the bible for one reason. It was written by man. It could have easily been changed by someone who was trying to make a profit or who just plain didn't like something and said it was a sin. Also, the bible itself says that demons can pose as clerics and priests and stuff. So if that's true, then that means that the bible could have been written by demons. If that's not true, then why would the rest of it be true. <p></p><i></i> |

Hahaha, yeah, just telling your parents those things would be fun. Except I doubt WWB is bigger or stronger than her parents. And about anime, my parents dont really care what I watch. And about the bible, I believe parts of it are too one-sided, but other parts may actually help you in your life. <p><center> <img src=http://deragon25.netfirms.com/LightGuardian/tuna_11.jpg> </center> "I'm the greatest, and I can't possibly be beat!- Cassius Clay aka Muhammed Ali"I am become death, the destroyer of worlds"- Robert Oppenheimer </p><i></i> |

I stopped going to church when It became and rroutine, and not spiritual. I think going to church should leave u enlightened. <p><div align="right"><table width="65%" border="0" cellpadding="0" bordercolor= bgcolor=> <tr> <td width="16%"> <div align="center"><img src="http://tomduo.homestead.com/files/tomduo34.jpg" border="0"></div> </td> <td width="84%"> <div align="right">I have been on the verge of being an angel all my life, but it's never happened yet. <br> <i>~Mark Twain</i></div> </td> </tr></table></div></p><i></i> |

Yes, you're both right. Church should leave you enlightened and so should the bible help you in your life but Marge said the same thing.<br><br>Marge: "Church shouldn't be a chore, it should help you in your daily lives."<br><br>Homer: "It should but it doesn't."<br><br>Church just became something to tell you what was a sin and what wasn't a sin. What to do and what not to do. And to take another little snipet from The Simpsons<br><br>Lisa: "Hi Mr. Flanders. I see you're reading the newspaper."<br><br>Flanders: "Everything but the opinion page. I don't need anyone to tell me how to think. At least no one living."<br><br>So that kinda shows how people were slowly brainwashed into believing everything that the church said and not even questioning it and thinking about whether they thought it was true or not.<br><br>I still believe in God. But I don't follow the bible or anything. I just believe that God wants us to be good people in general.<br> <p></p><i></i> |

Well I am bigger than my my mom (She's 5'4 I'm 5'6) but just as Yosho is with Lady Funaho, it doesn't take largeness or force to make you behave or do things their way. Just like K88 said, I don't let it get to my head or influence MOST descions. A flash of nudity isn't bothersome but when it gets so heavy it turns into porn, I just don't like it. All the cuss words and nudity just don't bother me because I ignore it most of the time. It's not like I stare at nude anime women and men all day. Cursing doesn't bother me because I've heard it most of my life. I must admit anime does influence me in some ways, but I do not "make it my life" Yeah I like it, but I actually have a life beyond anime. <br><br>Standing up to my parents isn't as easy as you may think. Since i know my parents extremely well if I followed Nick's advice here is how the conversation would likely be...<br><br>Me: Mom, Dad, I know you think anime is porn and all, but really it's not. There isn't alot of nudity and cussing as you may think. Actually it holds silmilar amounts of cussing and nudity comapred to most soap operas and--<br><br>Mom (interups): ANIME IS NOTHING LIKE SOAP OPERAS! IT IS A WORK OF THE DEVIL!<br><br>Me: Name one thing in this world that isn't a work of the devil, mom!<br><br>Dad: The Bible!<br><br>Mom: Church!<br><br>Me: Well I mean leisure stuff.<br><br>Dad: The trinity channel (that's a biblicially based channel)<br><br>Me: You let me read Harry Potter, yet there is more magic and stuff you don't like in it that there is in anime!<br><br>Mom: Well that's different!<br><br>Me: How?<br><br>Mom: You don't take it to heart. If you took it seriously then I would also ban you from it!<br><br>Me: I DON"T TAKE ANIME TO HEART EITHER! <br>*pause*<br>Look, just let me watch edited anime that's on Cartoon Network. It doesn't have nudity or cussing.<br><br>Dad: Yes, this may be but I still say that it's the work of the devil.<br><br>Mom: Look Chelsea, you are banned from anime as long as you live in this house and that's it! Now go to your room and think about why we ban it. It's because we love you!<br><br>This is what was said when I stood up to my parents in January. Ever since then I've just kept my mouth shut about it. Today I just bought Tenchi manga 8 and 9. I had to bring a very large purse to hide them in, and I had to come up with a scam on where my money went. I hate lying and cheating like this. It makes me so paranoid. I swear my prents put me through a living hell. I don't know if I can take 5 more years of this. <p>Dr. Clay had no idea how lucky he was...<br><img src=http://www.fortunecity.com/victorian/kingston/196/whr22.jpg</p><i></i> |
