Would a guy be turned off if a woman watched/read porn or hentai (pornographic Japanese comics), or is that something she should keep to herself?

No guy would ever be turned off by a woman who watched porn. If anything, he would want to watch it with you. Watching porn together can spice up a relationship and keep things exciting. It's healthier to share your fantasies instead of hiding them from your significant other. Plus, watching porn together can give you ideas to use in the bedroom. Hentai on the other hand...that's not gonna be for everyone. In fact, if you looked up the term "acquired taste" in the dictionary, hentai would be next to it. Or it should be, anyway.

For the uninitiated, Japanese animation (or anime) is a rich, diverse genre that encompasses everything from the sci-fi action epic Akira to the whimsical, Oscar-nominated films of Hayao Miyazaki (Spirited Away, Ponyo), often referred to as the Walt Disney of Japan. Hentai is basically cartoon porn, usually involving large-breasted doe-eyed women being raped by tentacles. (That pretty much sums up the weirdness of Japanese porn-- they fetishize schoolgirls, but are too repressed to actually show wangs in their dirty movies.)

I don't get the hentai thing at all. Sorry, my nerds. As I said over in Funny Guy Swaim's look at the sickeningly awful Japanese video game RapeLay, it's a shame that a small portion of Japanese animation gives the rest of the medium a bad name. It's bad enough that nutty fans go and do stuff like marry body pillows featuring images of anime characters. Come on, man. It's hard enough to be an anime fan these days without someone going and marrying an inanimate object just because it looks like a cartoon lady.  

Anyway... there are probably plenty of normal (or semi-normal) guys out there who are into hentai. (Many of whom are likely to be found on the Intertubes.) Find a guy who's into it and go nuts. (But it should be noted that guys who are into anime are not automatically into hentai.) If it's early in the relationship, maybe keep that interest to yourself. Once you've gotten serious with the guy, feel free to share your interest in porn. But get an idea of his taste before you drop the hentai bomb on him. Maybe ask him if he's ever fantasized about giving the "Roger" to Jessica Rabbit. That should be a good indication of whether or not his tastes lie to the drawn side of porn.

Don't dirtify Roger Rabbit. I loved that movie as a kid.

I still love Roger Rabbit. Awesome movie.

Just don't Google image "Jessica Rabbit." All the weirdos ruined it.

Right, a man marrying a body pillow is SO much more normal than two people of the same sex marrying. Come on, people.

Erm, yes... the fact it's TWO people is a dead give away. People loving people = normal, people loving pillows = not so much. You see how that works? Sheesh.

how is a question about anime porn a good forum for you're homophobic outbursts? No one wants to know that you think only one type of relationship is normal. No one cares.
Guys that fuck metal park benches with tiny wholes and wooden patio furniture are not normal. Gay people are.
There are much worse things in this world than 2 people loving each other.

I love hentai :) It's much much easier on the conscience to watch than regular porn, regardless of how fucked up it is.
