I think Anime in general is aimed at a more mature audience than Cartoons. That could just be me though.

Negative, there are a lot of Japanese animations aimed towards children, A LOT! The word anime is just a stupid catch phrase that people adapted to call Japanese animation cause they think French is so fucking kewl, but they are cartoons.

If someone calls a cartoon an anime, I personally don't feel it's as bad as if someone calls an anime a cartoon based on the fact that when people say that you're watching cartoons, it sounds like you're watching something like Tom and Jerry.  When you talk about cartoons like Family Guy  or The Simpsons (or whatever), people tend to refer to them by name.  

I don't even know what my point was anymore.
