Due to the state of the economy, this year’s “Guests Uncensored” event will be a little more toned down than it normally is. That means no flaming hoops of death or live reenactments of Battle Royale with our guests. We hope you’ll still join us for a mellow, quaint evening of sophisticated and intelligent conversation. Wait... this just in! The recession is over! “Guests Uncensored” is back on in full force! Light the flaming hoops and break out the explosive collars and implements of death! It’s going to be a long and interesting night.

The world is filled with many beautiful things such as love. This panel will be about love... well, a special kind of love. It’s the love that includes S/M, yaoi, yuri, futanari, Goo girls, shotas, lolis and much more. The panelists will examine the psychological reasoning behind hentai and some of its more popular fetishes. Some of the questions the panelists will investigate are:
Does liking loli or shota make one a pedophile?
If you’re a girl likes Yaoi, does that make you gay?
If you’re a guy and like futanari, does it not make you gay? It should prove to be an enlightening discussion.
Fandom works in very interesting ways. Given enough time, it tends to spawn various oddities without aid or encouragement. Some things you can never unsee, and some you’ll probably watch over and over on YouTube and LOL and ROFL. Sometimes you get an Evangelion ReDeath, and sometimes you even get prank calls from Spike Spen- cer as Shinji Ikari to MySpace users that never thought twice about having their cell phone numbers listed pub- licly. This panel for better, or for worse, is a collection of such nonsense and shenanigans.
