LOLITA - JAILBAIT
|
|
I'm trying to understand the logic here, so if somebody can explain it to me, please do...
ImageFap sent me to a page saying that my ip address was being logged and recorded for searching a term that was explicitly referring to underage. That term was "Lolita". Apparently Merriam Webster does NOT agree with ImageFap's definition of this word, as their definition of the word lolita is as follows:
a precociously seductive girl
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/lolita
That's it, the entire definition given by Merriam Webster. I don't see any reference to underage anywhere in that definition.
What REALLY has me confused now is, out of curiosity I searched the following terms:
jailbait
jb
jaybee
Here's Merriam Webster's definition of JAILBAIT:
a girl under the age of consent with whom sexual intercourse is unlawful and constitutes statutory rape
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/jailbait
Soooooo....could somebody please explain to me why ImageFap is logging my ip address with the claim that I was looking for underage material for searching a word that, using Merriam Webster's definition as a guide, has NO connotation to underage at all, while at the same time a word that EXPLICITLY means underage, along with two alternate forms of the same word are acceptable and allowed searches? I'm really confused by this, hopefully somebody here understands.

I'm not sure porn sites are too concerned about etymology :)
I am surprised that jailbait is allowed as a search term since posting pics from Jailbait Gallery is not - though people still do so in the chat room when they think no one is watching. Seems to me there are all sorts of terms that are code words for child porn - yng, non-nude, hairless, etc and you can see them on many profiles. I guess Lolita is just the most established, the most famous word with that possible connotation. Try searching for 'teen'; I understand it's quite popular on Fap :)

Thanks for the comment pornotron. I'm not so much worried about my IP address being logged or passed on. I agree, I do see the term lolita used for underage porn, however that is most certainly not the only meaning of the word. I have seen other sites that use the term "lolita" in conjunction with models who were 18+. This is why I find it so annoying that the powers that be here at Fap would be so narrow minded as to pigeonhole the term into a singular definition of "underage" despite the fact that their definition is not even found in two of the most popular and widely used dictionaries in the world (Merriam Webster and The Concise Oxford English Dictionary). Neither of the two dictionaries give a definition that has anything at all to do with being underage. (The Concise Oxford English Dictionary defines "lolita" as "a sexually precocious young girl" - note, they use the word "young" NOT "underage" - 18, 19, 20 are all young ages, but not underage or illegal). Also, I see your point about Lolita in the book being 13(?), however, relying solely on that fact to determine the definition of the word squelches the possibility of the English language progressing and evolving as it has done for hundreds of years. Remember, the term "gay" at one time meant "happy" (or as Oxford defines it "lighthearted and carefree") before it evolved into today's commonly accepted meaning of "homosexual". So if I'm talking about somebody who's lighthearted and carefree, does that mean I MUST be referring to a homosexual? Yes, lolita CAN mean underage, but following Fap's line of reasoning, imagine if you searched the term "blonde" and got told you were searching for underage simply because a blonde CAN be underage? Just because something CAN be something does not mean that it IS something, and that's the first part of my point. We seem to be in agreement on the second part of my point, why are other terms allowed that explicitly mean underage. However, the fact that the term "jailbait" (and other forms of the term) is an allowed search only lends strength to my first point. At least the term "lolita" has more than one definition (I will concede that "lolita" may refer to underage even if it is not specifically defined as such), whereas the term "jailbait" has only one definition and cannot be mistaken for something else.

Lolita is a very common term for child porn; Lolita was 13, I think, in Nabokov's book. You are being naive if you think it has any other connotation on a porn site. That Jailbait is allowed is contradictory, I agree since the meaning is the same.
Either way, don't worry, your IP address will not be logged or passed on to the FBI. This subject has been discussed at length on the forum.
