You can post them when you flag your blog as SFW but then you can't even post shirtless ones or ones in "sexy poses", they are pretty strict about that now, someone with a blog there got a mail about this from them and posted it on his blog but I forgot which one it was :/ And one or two tumblelogs I had in my Reader where deleted recently (as within the last month).

In case you were wondering I haven't seen a blog deleted from Tumblr in many many months and I have seen some with obvious illegal content that still exist. I think they generally gave up on trying to control the type of blogs being created (it's turned into a social network more than a blog now anyway), but it's not a place for child porn and I don't want it to be.

Although in the US, many would be surprised to find how much of the litigation and harassment of the ephebo culture comes from oldtime hardline feminists. In the late 1970s, the feminist party line was that "all sex was rape" and that "all nude photography was sexual exploitation." No one took that stuff seriously. However, feminists changed their focus on these planks from a "woman issue" to a "children's issue"--and now it is a great success. In addition, you hear a lot of gaybots now saying "intergenerational" relationships are "not about sex, they're about power"--feministspeak once again. Janet Reno and other horrors of humanity mainstreamed themselves as "child advocates" and hid behind bogus "child defense" reasons for their mishandlings in the Massacre at Waco, Texas and the machine-gun-in-the-face bit with Elian Gonzalez. And let's not forget the politicians who have passed Patriot Act style stealth policies under the radar as various "Meagan's Laws" and "Amber Alerts" and the like. Did you know Homeland Security maintains detailed sex deviants' files, including millions of "porn" pictures? Is Homeland Security telling us they think perverts are going to mass attack?

I wouldn't really call it that. I would see the current situation in Russia as being temporary and the result of lack of enforcement due to lack of resources, corruption, and outright greed (capitalism in action I guess.) Russia is starting to get its internet "enforcement" in place (under pressure from the West, I think) and, when first set up, the "Friendly RUNET Association" website listed homosexuality alongside bestiality as one of the problems on the internet that needed to be addressed. I don't think the underlying Russian attitude towards freedom of expression has changed. Freedom of expression in Russia? I wouldn’t really call it that.

You seem to use them as the regressive, faceless terror. Much like the 'Christian Fundamentalists' use Islamists! You share more in common with your fundamentalist friends than you originally thought. Josh, who are these ‘Christian Fundamentalists’ you bang on about?
