Here is a spectacular example of what I am talking about:

-------------------------------------------------
D.Gray-Man (c) Hoshino Katsura
Allen Walker (c) Hoshino Katsura
EDIT: Okay, so I, like, seriously can't keep up with all this faving, ya'll ^^" So if I don't thank you on your profile... well, I thank you here, yeah?
EDIT2/6: Eh? Wait-- seriously? This is seriously on the front page for 8 hours?
That's new ._." Front page for 24 hours? WHAT??!?EDIT3: *chokes on Diet Coke* 4000 VIEWS?!??!
EDIT4: Wow, I'm getting a lot of llamas
EDIT5: Okay, I don't think I can be anymore surprised :U I'm in shock, seriously. On another note, feel free to state your opinion-- I like to try and understand peoples opinions, believe it or not
. I prefer that over trolling caps lock bashing them any day D:EDIT6: I'd like to thank everybody for the points ;3; Really means a lot to me
. Also a big thanks for all the favs, once again, and the watches.. and the llamas TwT Means a lot~!--------------------------------------------------
Another rant stamp anyone?
Okay, this one actually has a story to it. One day I’m wandering around Fanfiction.net (I know, I know, it’s dangerous, but I’m careful) and checking out the rated “T” fanfics for D.Gray-Man. I come upon a rather interesting summary for one, so I click on it and start reading. It’s an interesting story so far… until I get to around the fifth chapter.
And Allen’s getting raped by Kanda.
So I’m sittin’ there panicking trying to save my eyes and get to the back button (which is NOT working fast enough!), when somehow I click on the “reviews” link.
What am I met with?
“KAWAIII!!1!”
Eh?
Then I saw another review below that:
“OMG SO HOT!!! I say yes to bondage next time!!”
Allen… being raped by Kanda… is… “cute”?
How is a 15 year old boy getting raped CUTE?!?
I don’t get it! D:
Okay, so I know there are probably plenty of people out there, probably even within my watchers and friends, who… read that stuff… and like it >.>”
I’m not going to bash you for what you… happen to enjoy.
But could someone please explain to me how the raping of a fifteen year old boy is CUTE?
And let’s not even get into the traumatics and mental scarring rape victims get.
Have you ever met a rape victim before? Let alone a CHILD rape victim? Yeah, D.Gray-Man is fictional, so what? If someone told you their 15 year old child was raped by a famous actor or some crap, would you screech “KAWAIII!!1!”?
-> I think the fans are going gaga over the victim characters vulnerability in such a situation. Their primitive little minds are not focusing on the actual brutalization or consequences the victim will suffer physically/mentally ... just that they seem so "cute" being so helpless and vulnerable. It's a blinders on kinda view they need to grow out of I think.
The main draw of these things is showing the helplessness/vulnerability of a character, which can be very cute. But, it can be done in better ways without use of the rape topic. Because the rape cheapens the cute ... even kills it. lol
I do believe she summed it up well ^^"
Comment away :/
Just remember to be mature about it.
NOTE: This is in no way meant to bash anyone’s opinion—I am merely stating mine… and how disturbed I am to see girls screeching “KAWAII” towards the rape of such a young boy. Perhaps it’s ‘cause I was 15 only two months ago? To think that someone my age (or a year less now) being raped is… “cute” is disturbing to me. And I don’t care if he’s a different gender than me. Being a boy or girl—either way, I don’t get it.
Also, please don't give out usernames or names of people you are accusing likes rape, etc. These rant stamps are not meant to point fingers, but to voice an opinion.
Thank you~!
-------------------------------------
Please remember: This stamp is meant for one specific area-- not spreading out to fiction vs reality. 'Kay?
described it well:
"But still, with all that aside, the stamp itself is not saying 'I hate rape of fictional characters'. What it's saying is how the hell can ANYONE in a stable mind find rape cute!?"
Thanks for understanding~!
------------------------------------------
I would like to thank everyone for supporting and/or voicing their opinions! I think I've come to understand things a bit better-- thank you to those who gave those thoughtful comments xD And a big thank you for not trolling and remembering to read my author's comment *cough*rant*cough*. As I said, I've heard many opinions, and they've really opened my eyes to some things. However, now... the comments are starting to repeat in meaning and explanation ^^". I'm swamped with comments as it is, and while I'd love to reply to them all and have discussions with everyone, I really can't handle that. I don't like such a ginormous amount of attention to tell the truth >.>" I never would have expected this to get more than 200 views.... Therefore, I'm closing comments.
Once again-- a giant thank you to everybody!
A very tired Wolfy~
--------------------------------------
Okay, people were quick to voice that they enjoyed reading the other comments, which is understandable... So I guess I'll allow comments again.. but I probably won't reply to them ^^"
I do read all my comments though-- so feel free to voice away~
But remember: PLEASE LOOK AT OTHERS' COMMENTS BEFORE POSTING YOUR OWN.
Revoicing what others have said gets tiring after a while, yeah?
--------------------------------------------------------
EDIT: To be frank, I'm tired of getting comments from people. Especially people who completely miss the point of the stamp, or find some way to twist my words to satisfy their need to be offended and chastise someone.
The stamps are old. I don't really make stamps anymore. I just keep my rants to myself now. Hell, some of my opinions have softened up too in regards to actually caring about those topics these days.
But yeah, comments are disabled now. Thanks to those who offered some interesting insight on any subjects on my stamps!

My god you are right! My own characters got sexually assaulted in RP Notes by those who were in bondage. I really fucking hate it when they remember them as sex objects and not the cute yet unique characters I made from my own heart.

Exactly though?? That's another thing people forget - an event doesn't completely define a person either. I have a friend whose OC was raped, but they didn't include it in their character bio because they didn't want people only defining their character by that detail ://

There's a difference between fiction and reality. That's why it's called fiction. Some people fantasize about being raped, but they don't want to actually be really raped. Some people fantasize about raping, but would never actually go rape someone. I like reading stories about girls getting raped. Do I like real actual rape? No. Do I condone real rape? No. But stories and cartoons are just that. Stories. For enjoyment. People like to play Mortal Kombat, but they don't want to actually chop people's heads off. People like rape stories, but they don't actually like real rape.

Well what ever floats your boat but the difference here is that some people can't distinguish the difference between reality and fiction and that's the real problem here.as long as you know the difference then that's okay.

Um, I'm not trolling. I'm being serious. Some American dudes made a manga and accidentally used the word 'kawaii' for cute. 'Kawaii' means scared or frightened. 'Sugoii' means cute. I'm not making this up. Don't call me a troll.

Kawaii = Cute, adorable
Sugoii = Amazing, cool
Kowai/Kowaii = Scary

I hate to break it to you, but "kawaii" means "cute." I think you need to get your hands on an English to Japanese dictionary. "Kowaii" is what means "scary."
"Sugoii" means amazing....
Are you even bothering to look these terms up on Google? You claim not to be a troll, but it's a tad hard to believe, to be quite honest.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh. My mistake.
I don't like to search things up on google because I always seem to get the wrong info.
Once again, I'm being polite as possible, don't call me a troll.

No problem. 
I never called you a troll. I said you seemed like one, as in I wasn't sure if you were or not. There is a complete difference, so please don't put words in my mouth.

I'm pretty sure if someone says they're not a troll, they're not one. The way I think of it is that trolls can't spell.

People lie daily. A person is faced about 120 lies from different people daily.
Just because I say I'm not a woman, that won't change the fact that I am, in fact, a woman.
I'm not insisting that you are lying, I'm only saying that just because someone says something (and it seems the other way) that doesn't mean that we are ought to believe them. I give the assumption to everyone that they're always telling the truth but if you, let's say act like you're sad, really sad, and I assume you're sad, but you are happy though, then don't blame me for assuming you were sad because you ACTED like one.
You know, acting and being something is totally different.
Right now I might seem cruel or annoying to you, but that doesn't mean I am.
So please just try to overthink what ChikitaWolf said you before, especially since your original comment insisted that you, in fact, are in right and kawaii means scary.
Since the fact that kawaii means cute and not scary is a fact that's obvious, and if you don't know what it means, you can google it, but your statement went strongly against a true fact, it definitely seemed that:
a, either you're not possessing the right knowledge about the word
b, trolling, since people who likes trolling do go against TRUE facts
I just really hope you re-consider your words, because this is a public forum and words have consequenses.
Action speaks louder than words do.
Have a nice day, hope you have a good one!

Have you ever been trolled before? I used to make stamps on this account (as you can see), and trolls were a common occurrence (still are). I've got a lot of unfortunate experience with them. Not all trolls have horrendous spelling (those are what we call "bad" trolls), some of them just act ignorant to get under peoples' skin.
So, yes, I couldn't tell whether or not you were a troll with that in mind. It wouldn't be the first time someone (a troll) was telling me false information knowing it was false but pretending it was true just to entertain themselves and annoy me - and claiming they weren't a troll at the same time (actually, all trolls claim that....). Whether it's hard for you to believe or not, this is the case as it is. And this is why I was questioning whether you were one or not. Because you honestly fit the criteria of some of the ones I've had on these stamps.
If I offended you in questioning whether or not you were a troll, I apologize; it was not my intention. Again, I wasn't sure.

I've always been annoyed by fics that show rape as something okay and without consequence,such as those that show it as a standard a way to show the 'seme' or 'top' loves the 'uke' or 'bottom'. It squicks me no end. There are writers to show that its is truely a awful and degusting act,but as many have commented some writers/readers search for certain kinds of rape fic because of the kink element,or BDSM. But so many are written by those who just don't understand the severity of the subject matter.

I'm not offended by it, because Fiction is Fiction. If someone wants to write rape fiction, then they can do it.
I also read it sometimes. We have to clearly distinguish between reality and fiction. Yes, rape is not "kawaii". It's disgusting, no matter what gender or age. But it's a fictional character. By the way, what I'm annoyed about are all these people who complain about how Fanfiction writer can write something sexual (whether it be rape or consensual) about an underage character, when it's almost always clearly stated before.
Guys, read the summary and THEN decide if you still want to read it. We should be free to write in the internet what we want as long as we are not hurting someone's feelings. And I think a warning at the beginning of a fanfiction is warning enough.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm only offended when someone writes clearly unconsensual sex in a glorifying manner and/or if no warnings are given. The unrealistic writing of the act gives a bad message to those readers who are not as mature or too naive to realize the realities of real, unfetishized rape.
If the writer has warned readers beforehand, it's the reader's fault for delving into something they knew would make them uncomfortable.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hi
Yes, that's exactly what I mean. But usually the fanfiction writer warn and should warn everyone about such contents.
Unconsensual sex is not sexy in my opinion. I read it for the tragedy. It's not arousing in any way, in my opinion. So when you write "in a glorifying manner", I have to say, I don't like to read such things either. But I don't complain, because usually we're warned. After all we all have our kinks and I sure as hell won't tell anyone off about their kinks.
the fanfiction example you gave in your post is really the best example you could have given for an irresponsible writer. Usually fanfiction writer give us readers warnings, thank god
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Agreed!
Hmmm, I dunno. Even in fiction, a kink that involves unconsensual rape is pretty dangerous in my opinion. Many of the things we fetishize in fiction ends up influencing us in real life, after all.
No kidding! I was really shocked running into that one. I remember the days on fanfiction.net where few warned beforehand in certain fandoms - it was like scouring the grasses and hoping not to come across a bomb LOL. Fortunately people are more active on trigger warnings these days.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
"Many of the things we fetishize in fiction ends up influencing us in real life, after all."
No, I don't agree with this. I do read certain things in Ficton which would never influence me in real life. And for example, if rapists have the tendency already, they will rape someone, nevertheless if he/she read some fiction or not.
Same with for example pedophiles. They have the tendency, no matter if they read "shota" or not. And not everyone who writes or reads shota or rape fictions are really rapists or pedophiles.
Yeah, it irks me quite a bit, when people write rape as something "pleasurable" or "raped person falls in love with rapist", but I don't believe at all, that the writers or readers have all "hidden" tendencies. I hate rape in real life and will always hate it.

Some people are into rape roleplay, which is basically part of BDSM in a way. However, if someone genuinely thinks legit rape is cute or sexy, then there's a problem. I kinda think that if kids were taught about consent and all that more, whether by parents or in a sex education class, then teenagers on the internet wouldn't really think rape is cute. I mean come on, if the sex ed sucks, then the kids are gonna look to the internet, their first exposure to sexual content will end up being fanfics, and knowing the nature of a lot of fics out there, that's not a really good way to learn about sexuality.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
And the worst part of it all is that the USA's "sex education" really is a joke Hell, most of the guys in my high school graduating class still thought women pissed out of their vagina.
Additionally, the majority of people I run into on the internet learned about sex from the internet - especially fangirls. They stumble across those fanfictions, and those fanfictions paint the picture of what sex is for them. It's pretty much inevitable at this point for perceptions of sex to be warped amongst younger generations not getting real sex education.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
And adults are afraid that sex ed will make kids want to fuck everyone they see, and that makes it worse. Our views of sex are pretty ass backwards what with the religeous beliefs about premarital sex and all (heck, the greek word for fornication, pornea, originally referred to prostitution, not premarital sex, so our Bible translations are kinda screwy). 
I learned quite a bit about sex on the internet in recent years, but it was mostly in regards to sex myths that are perpetuated in our society, especially irl sex vs porn sex etc. I kinda wonder about the sex ed in other places like Europe, because I assume they're more open to talking about sex then we are in the US.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
LOL, if only they could see that kids want to fuck everyone they see regardless nowadays xD
The views really are! Being a Christian myself, I find it incredibly immature how the USA on a religious side has viewed sex negatively as a whole. It's like we're a bunch of little kids going "EWWWW" at works of art that are in the nude. Such maturity there, no wonder other countries "respect" is so much :'D
Bible translations are like English. Incredibly fucked up and misinterpreted easily xD
Same. I actually came across how sex worked through fanfictions when I was thirteen and found it rather unrealistic, so I took it upon myself to Google how it all worked - seeing as how I wasn't getting the education on it in school. It's incredible how commonly misinterpreted sex is.
I've been to Europe a few times (England, Sweden, Norway, and Romania). In England, they have plenty of porn channels (our tour guide accidentally put one on while we were doing prayer LMAO); in the Scandinavian countries, they're very open about sexuality as a whole. Lots of nude works of art everywhere too, so children are exposed to it relatively early and in less of a "SEX IS EVIL" environment. Europe definitely has a more educated, mature view on sex, based on what I've seen.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sometimes I wonder what would happen if it was accepted by the public as much as it is in Europe. What gets me is that the media's so full of sex and yet we're constantly told by conservative guys something along these lines:
"Don't have sex, or you'll get pregnant, get an STD, get heartbroken, and die. Oh by the way, abortion is murder and contraception is against God's plan, because contraception promotes casual sex without consequences, and sex is only for procreation."
It's ridiculous how puritanical the US is at times. And yeah, generally speaking, Europe does seem to have a more healthy view of sex. And over here, we're being told that we live in a "sex crazed" society that worships sex and that we should strive to be sexless until marriage. The problem with teaching purity is that those who are infertile or in the LGBT+ demographic are out of the question. Plus, marriage wasn't done ONE way in the Bible. It covered concubines and polygamy in the old testament, and premarital sex wasn't mentioned in its list of sexual sins, which mostly covers incest and bestiality anyway. People also neglect to remember that back in Biblical times, women were viewed as property to be bought and marriage was practiced to ensure financial stability.
On a related note, I remember when I took French class in high school. My French teacher told about how some ads in France have nudity and such, and she seemed a bit weirded out by it (it was a Christian school, and I think she was catholic if I remember correctly). At the time, I was into bande dessinée and used to download some French comics I was interested in. I had read the Spirou et Fantasio album, Luna Fatale, at one point, and there was a part in the beginning where the title characters were in an art exhibit that showed nude photographs of female models or something (covered by background characters by the way).
And that comic series was geared towards kids or preteens or something. I didn't particularly like that album at the time after I was finished with it, and that part bothered me at first, but looking back, I ain't too bothered. I might try and read it again some time.

I agree rape is not "KAWAII". But I do understand how people are sexually arroused by it, and I think that is fine, it can't really be helped. You just have to understand that it's jot right and that it is a terrible thing to do. There is a difference between some dumb fanfic and the real world.
Enjoying rape fanfiction doesn't really harm anyone, but people need to remember to take real life rape seriously and not joke about it. It is not funny or cute or pleasent. Also, rape is not SEX. There is a difference.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
See, I used to get the "there's a difference between some dumb fanfic and the real world" - at least until the internet starts affecting real world perceptions, because guess what, real people are on the internet and taking in the information they get from the internet.
I have talked to plenty of fangirls who legit believe that rape - nonconsensual rape, mind you - is fine, especially if the partner decides to "give in" by the end of it. This is not a healthy way of thinking, nor a safe way.
Furthermore, there was a story in the press recently about a group of girls who killed a little girl in an attempt to summon a famous horror figure on the internet - slenderman, if I'm not mistaken.
Yes, it's true, there is a difference between fiction on the internet and the reality of the real world, but that does not mean that people are not affected after reading it on the internet and applying it to the real world.
On another account, rape IS sex, because sex is intercourse between a male and female, whether consensual or no (or, well, female and female or male and male too). It is simply "nonconsensual" sex. Although there are some couples who practice "consensual" rape, which is similar to roleplay. The very definition of rape includes "sexual intercourse" in it.
