A really strange court ruling. A fictional cartoon character has equal legal standing with real people:

http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/business/story/0,,24771973-7582,00.html

But Justice Adams yesterday said the fact that the images did not realistically represent human beings did not mean the figures depicted could not be considered people.

"If the persons were real, such depictions could never be permitted," Justice Adams said in his judgment. "Their creation would constitute crimes at the very highest end of the criminal calendar."

Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
So it is up to you. If you post here we assume that you are of legal age to do so or have consent if not, and we do not want to know any different
