Porno? God, you're not talking about that cartoon kind, are you? If you are, shame on you.
Why is it that Japanese artists have such an obsession with drawing relatively young girls naked? It's really sick. Nowadays, I can't even read a manga or watch an anime show without seeing a girl drawn naked, or at least partially so. Even in anime intended for kids, there's often at least a strong level of implied nudity. And that's just in regular manga and anime. I've never seen hentai, but I'd hate to think what kind of stuff they put in that.
Okay, I'm not saying I personally have anything against it... but it's just the principle of the thing. I'd hate to be a girl in Japan. I think I'd have to carry a tazer around with me. It's just wrong, y'know? In theory. I'm going to keep reading those mangas and watching that anime, though.
As for vending machines... I have to admit, it is pretty cool how much stuff you can get from vending machines in Japan. But Japan still has a lot more to offer than pornography and vending machines! And Nads... I hope you're not talking about what I think you're talking about.
By the way, this thread was intended to be about the Japanese language.
