April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberConsidering how fucked up a lot of fairy tales were in their original version, i wouldn't actually be too surprised if this happened in one.

Memberbecause you heard the American readapted version this is the old ... umm original german version where red strolls the forest teasing the feral wolf to dominate her ...

MemberWell.... Depending on what version of what particular fairy tale you are reading.... Rape is actually a pretty common theme, especially in the original Grimm versions. The original Sleeping Beauty story, in particular, was pretty fucked up.

MemberIn the original version, the wolf tells Red Riding Hood to undress and get in bed with Granny. She is instructed to throw her clothes in the fire because she "won't need them anymore". She gets away, though by tricking the wolf.
