Very young would certainly have trouble understanding a lot of the jokes and references, but I don't see that as a reason that viewing it would damage their mind.

But, but, dont you know that that will corrupt the minds of our children?!?! That it will warp them into vicious, womanizing serial murder/rapists who go on massive drug binges?!?! Think of the children man!

If we Americans were less prude about stuff like this, we'd probably be just a little bit better off.

Probably a militant dyke who sees phallic symbols everywhere.

IIRC Faye's only submissive when she's trying to get to out of the handcuffs and her feminine appears to have an effect on the keykeeper. Almost every other situation she is in need of training to be submissive.

No, she just likes playing Sigmund Freud.

Meh. I'm what most would call a kid but i'm already so damn perverted that 2/3 of a damn cartoon butt isn't gonna affect me in the slightest.

Parents for whatever reason do not make time to supervise or care for their children and then get pissed off at the babysitter-in-a-box because it isn't raising their kids’ right. This twit should watch some more of the shows her kids watch, I'd bet anything that she would see the exact same sexual innuendos and violence if not worse.

There is a good reason why they show shows like Cowboy Bebop, FLCL, Blue Gender, and so forth in the middle of the night with PG warnings. They show all the 1-900 number commercials at that time, the ‘Girls Gone Wild’ infomercials at that time, the HBO and Showtime porn at that time… and she complains about a girl sucking on a Popsicle and 2/3 cartoon butt which you see the same thing in real flesh on those phone sex commercials and GGW infomercials.

I wonder if TiVO or whater even screens out those Girls Gone Wild ads, since they are just listed as "infomercial"

Though I don't know what people's problem with sex is, I knew about it from a very young age, which meant my mind didn't get fucked up all at once when puberty started. I go to private Christian school(not my choice) and I can see how screwed up some people are from not knowing about sex except from sex-ed or turning into hormonal idiots(as opposed to normal idiots).

Not to mention the Disclaimers every 15 minutes, including one that says if your a kid call CPS NOW, we mean it.

On the other hand, she's full of shit. FLCL is shown at midnight during a program block called ADULT SWIM for a reason.

In addition to Ninamori, you can see Haruko's bare ass for a pretty extended amount of time in Episode 5 when she's straddling Naota. You can also see Kitsurabami's bare breast for like a half second in the same episode.

heyyy. . .thats a reason to watch past episode 1.
