There are a slew of incredibly effed up and sexist comic covers lately that have gotten the fangirls talking.

Recently I found hentai on my boyfriends computer, we got in a very big fight over it, where he deleted it and told me that if it made me that upset then he won't look at it anymore, but I think he's only not going to look at it because it makes me feel bad, I don't think he thinks there's anything else wrong with it, and I didn't do the best job convincing him that it really is that bad.
I've been looking for something for him to read about why it's so bad, but I've not found anything yet, so... I don't know, maybe your project might help me...

I wouldn't want to spark a pro-hentai fool's obsession with drawings of rape. I don't want them to think I'm attacking their "right" to hentai. I'm twenty-two years old right now... maybe I will write a critical analysis of hentai during my lifetime and you all can read it. We'll see. hehe that would be nice if I accomplished that.

Sometimes I don't think there is a PURPOSE in me doing this project, because hentai is so overthetop obviously pedophilic and mysoginistic... I GUESS I will continue with it though and show my findings to National Feminist Antipornography Movement members on July 21st's antiporn potluck... If any of you are around Massachussetts that date, send me a private message and I can give you more info about the event. The person who's in charge of it wants it to be women-only.
