The Rise of Tentacle Sex

In Tokyo, Japan, Anthony Bourdain interviewed the creator and illustrator of a widely popular from explicit cartoon art called manga (sp?). According to Bourdain, all you need to do is type, "tentacle sex" into any Web search engine and you'll realize how prevalent this "art form" has become all over the world. But, it originated in Tokyo, and this man, the illustrator being interviewed by Bourdain for his popular series, "Parts Unknown", is the one who created it.

Bourdain asked him, "Why?"

The answer, according to the illustrator, is simple. Drawing a penis was against the law (i.e. censored for mass market comic books), so he drew tentacles instead, "as a way to get around the law", he says proudly.

He drew tentacled aliens violating boys and girls in ways that completely redefines the term "hardcore pornography". And because he never drew penises, it was perfectly legal, and even acceptable. The tentacle became a new, more powerful, more stimulating, and more arousing tool of personal violation.

And so, the so-called order imposed by human law once more results in a more perverse form of sexual expression. Go figure.

P.S. I wish I could tell you the effect that pornography restriction has in prison, but I wouldn't want to get anyone in trouble. Let's just say that tentacle sex would be a compromise well suited in here. So let's clamp down even harder (as the system always does) and see what happens. Maybe, just maybe, if we clamp down hard enough, we can stop men (prisoners, or anyone) from thinking about sex.

Yeah, right.
