Cartoon pornography
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cartoon pornography is the portrayal of illustrated or animated fictional characters in erotic or sexual situations. This includes but is not limited to parody renditions of famous cartoons and comics.
The advent of the Internet and the emergence of personal computers have given artists more freedom to explore and exchange ideas and techniques, resulting in a wide variety of work, which can range from beautiful artistic renditions to very lewd images. The freedom of the Internet and the use of the personal computer as a rendering tool have allowed many artists who would not have had an audience to freely distribute and promote their works. Some artists have found such success creating original erotic parodies of well-known animated characters, they have spawned various e-commerce websites, and many enjoy a loyal following.
[edit] Styles of cartoon pornography
Due to the greater freedom given to the artists, cartoon pornography allows greater diversity than regular pornography. Many pornographic cartoons depict sexual behavior that involves bestiality, bisexuality, homosexuality, group sex, incest, pedophilia, and other forms taboo sexual behavior.
Some artists use parodies of pre-existing cartoon or comics characters, drawing for example Walt Disney's famous princesses, television characters, or comic book characters in various states of undress and possibly engaged in sexual activity. Other favorite sources of pornographic cartoon parodies include Warner Brothers cartoon characters such as Bugs Bunny, Elmer Fudd, and Pepe LePew; newspaper comic strip characters such as Dennis the Menace, the Family Circus, and Luann; and such television or movie characters as those of The Flintstones, The Jetsons, "Pokemon", Sailor Moon, Family Guy, The Simpsons, Star Trek, Star Wars and lately Naruto. Other artists, such as Jab, use their own characters and create erotic comics. Artists who draw pre-existing characters do not generally have any special notability among the cartoon pornography community, in contrast, some of the artists who draw their own characters, such as Alazar, Bill Ward, Kevin J. Taylor, or John Willie, have gained a cult fan base. The animation duo Sven & Angus (Rum Runners, creators of Brickhouse Betty), have gained such a huge fan base that they have even won an AVN Award, the "Oscars" of the adult film industry.
The artistic style of cartoon pornography can vary wildly, as it can in mainstream cartoons. Artists who parody pre-existing characters usually mimic the style of the characters' creators, although some draw in different styles. Realistic drawings are very common, as they stimulate many viewers, though the style may vary from highly realistic to extremely simple.
As cartoon pornography does not have to use real-life humans as models, the characters depicted do not have to represent normal adult women or men. Furry characters, especially females, are very common. The types of renditions found vary from human to animal to extraterrestrial.
Since web-authoring tools like Adobe Flash has become popular over recent years, some have made cartoon pornography in forms of Flash animations. Others may make interactive cartoons, often in the form of "dress-up games". These are often found on entertainment sites aimed at mature audiences, such as Newgrounds.
