Now that I have your attention, I'd like to let you know that this site isn't for everyone. This site contains images, stories, video games which may contain violent imagery, implied and explicit homosexual situations, and may contain imagery pertaining to a variaty of religions and creeds. So, if you are easily offended, please navigate away from this website now.
Viewer discretion is strongly advised.
Okay, personally, I admit that I'd rather not have you muddle through all this legalese, but many within societies seek to censor, in the name of protecting "the innocence of youth." Personally, I find children to be selfish and cruel, not innocent like religious zeliots of several belief systems attest to. But what do I know? In the meantime, please bear with me.

If you are a concerned parent/religious organization/government agent/et. al.
Have you ever heard the words "Freedom of Speech"? Good. I may not agree with your opinions, but I'll defend to the death your right to say them. I expect the same in return. Just as a reminder, freedom of speech as a right in the United States is a two way street. Just because someone creates something you don't like doesn't give you the right to censor them. Period.
I agree and highly recommend that parents should watch and keep close eye on what their progeny do as a means for helping them grow into well adjusted adults. But I do not agree with extending that control into adulthood, nor do I agree with the government doing a parents dirty work for them by imposing restrictions on the Internet as a whole. Why should others pay the consequences because some parents are unwilling to watch their children, or pose restrictions adequate for a child's developmental level? The Internet is not a stand-in for the parent, just like game consoles and television are no substitution for a parent. I will not white-wash my drawings, digigraphs and digital media for the sake of your children. That is the parent's responsibility, not mine. I do not cater to children; nothing on this site is oriented to children.
If you find the idea of same-gender sex between fantasy characters disgusting, sick, deplorable, some sort of terrible sin, etc., that your children should not be exposed to, that is NOT my responsibility to protect them. It is YOU THE PARENT who should watch what your own children are doing. Don't bother emailing me to say I am wrong. You won't change my mind nor I will be able to change yours, so it would all be a waste of time.
If you are my concerned mother, a concerned organization et. al.
Your son's an adult now, and you don't need to hire the execution squad. As a hobby for fully consenting adults age 21 or older, your little Rahshu creates specifically-targetted fantasy creations doing fantasy actions in fantasy places as part of a larger fantasy concept for appreciation of others. This site is not an expression of sexual wants, sexual desires, anything sexual, nor anything sick or depraved, but should be viewed as a symbol of one's journey through life. To re-instate, what you see is a work of fiction, unreal, and not intended to be taken seriously. I don't take my work seriously, and neither should you.
In addition, while some images and situations may appear "fucked-up" and depraved, but more often than not, I was feeling fucked-up and depraved while I created it with the intention of ridding myself of negative emotion and a negative sense of well-being. Perhaps I felt violated by someone or something and expressed myself in a drawing getting violated by someone or something, is that wrong to express myself as such? Or perhaps I felt vulnerable alone, and drew myself naked in the cold dark night alone like a Russian Victorian novel, is that a deplorable means for self-expression? Wouldn't you agree that it's better that I express myself through symbols and artwork than through other channels, such as self-destructive behavior and physical harm? Just because something I do is not readily accessible to you at first glance does not make me as a person wrong. I think your actions are completely unjustified.
If my form of anger management and depression mitigation makes for an interesting visual experience, would it be wrong as an adult to publish my work to adults that may appreciate my work for its visual qualities? If you have any more misgivings, speak with me directly. Don't try to turn my little legal family I have left away from me with talk based on speculation and assumption. It doesn't bode well for you, being responsible for my actions for a full eighteen years, nor does it do anyone else any good. You are wasting your time, browsing this site.
