I really like those tumblr imagine blogs with reader insert fics and fanart. People say they're cringey but to be honest I can think of a thousand others things that are way cringer than someone wanting to imagine themselves with their favorite characters and making themselves and other people happy. It's not even all that weird?? If you've never imagined yourself as your favorite character's friend or s/o you're a liar and I don't believe you lmao. Like, some of them are badly written or drawn but there are good ones too. There are always going to be some really fucking weird ones but most of them are really mild and not weird at all. I feel like a lot of people who say they hate them actually secretly like them but are embarrassed about it.

>>12460>>12468It's not pedophilia:
1. Characters drawn lack the subtle features that distinguish a 14 year old from a 34 year old. Anime is not like irl where you can generally distinguish a 30 year old from a young teenager - even if you put a 14 year old in a suit and a 34 year old in a school uniform, it's unlikely to deceive people. While exaggerated features might be used to indicate age in some cases (i.e. D cups for a 30 year old, and A cups for a 14 year old), this isn't an accurate indication of age. Plenty of 14 year olds have large breasts, and plenty of 30 year olds are flat-chested. And again, these exaggerated features are used because the drawings lack the ability to accurately portray age the same way as irl.
Physically, these characters could be 10, 20, 30, 40, or even 50 years old if that's what the author dictates them. School uniforms are indicators of a character's age, but physically they could be 40 years old if switched into a business suit.
Would this really make someone a pedophile?
2. It might seem 'cringy' or 'creepy' to be attracted to a young teenager's or even child's personality in an anime.
But it's important to remember that these characters are created by adults. Their personalities are reflections of the creators, who have an adult view/perspective and have experienced life beyond childhood. Often times teenaged characters will be more mature/rational or have a perspective uncommon in actual youth. This is, again, because they aren't actual teenagers.
>I for one don't have a waifu per se, but have been attracted to "underaged anime girls." I have zero attraction to children, especially not teenagers.
>If we took a picture of an irl 50 year old woman, told people she's 14 (when she's clearly middle aged) and connected her with a fantastic backstory and great personality…would you call the people attracted to her pedophiles? I think not.
>Pic related. If you didn't or don't know who this character is, can you see how she could be either 15 (age of this character) or a 45 year old MILF? Anonymous 12487
1514590090980.jpg
>>12485But it is.
It's very clear that the intention of making a small character with barely any visible breasts, a child voice, and childish personalty among other child traits while also making them a perfect adult fantasy is meant to attract the pedo crowds and incite the liking of children and a borderline sexual pandering to adults.
>"she is a 2000 year old dragon loli so it's okay!">"it's only a cartoon, it's not affecting anybody!">"i'm not attracted to children, just to everything that makes a child a child!"They are pandering to people who are attracted to children traits but don't want to admit they are by using the defense of "it's a cartoon, it's not
real, so i'm not actually really attracted to children even-though i am in love with a 14 year old waifu".
It's gross, it's normalizing the attraction to children for adults even more than it already is.
There are millions of anime waifus that look adult and have the same copy paste personality of one another, but those people went for the one that is underage and looks like a child to jerk off to, what a coincidence.
Don't kid yourself thinking that people who jerk off to lolis and shotas are normal and have no attraction whatsoever to children traits.

They are cartoons, and my guess is that since most anime characters are underaged, it's easier for people to develop "feelings" for underaged characters simply because they are more prevalent.
Are we really going to accuse someone who likes
pic related of being a pedophile because the author chose to put her in high school?
Or it's a oneway street and only petite characters get slack and everyone has to like the DDD girl over the AAA one (even if they are given the same exact age) because adult women are

Short answer: no
I could type out an essay on what the nature of the anime phenomenon is, and why it has become so pervasive, especially in Japan.
But I'm not going to bother to if we're more interested in somehow still debating on whether or not people who masturbate to pictures of children are pedophiles.
Anonymous 12538
>>12534Of course not everyone is a pedo there but just like every country has problems specific to their people, this is probably their biggest. The root cause is probably obsession with youth (which can be seen in women in how they're obsessed with looking pure and childish kawaii) and the generalized social dysfunction among young people. It's really disgusting.
I like Japan for several reasons, but anime is probably what I care about the least. I think I can separate the country from their problems. Being a weeb will always be cringe though, and defending the crass pedo problem there is a horrible thing to do.

>>12514>because adult women are supposed to have huge tits and if you dare to like the petite same-aged CARTOON character……ok. Come on now, no one is saying that all adult women have huge breasts, petite women exist in real life, but petite women don't look like actual children. I have yet to meet a single woman, no matter how petite, that looks like a 9 year old like lolis do.
The intent behind making small breastless characters that look like children from facial features to body type is very different than a realistic drawing of a small adult woman with small breasts would be and it's grabbing from the expectation that it will create attraction for the people who find children characteristics attractive.
An adult male can have a small penis and still look like an adult, put that small penis on a drawing of a male child-like body, the intention is obviously different. (i.e the /nsfw/ pic that was deleted), so it's the same with female characters.
Also, why do you think authors make sexualized women like your pic of highschool age specifically? It's a fetish for the age.
>inb4 highschoolers can have big tits I'm aware, i had big breasts when i was a high schooler, but i didn't choose my age to pander and sexualize myself as underage, those drawings however, do.

Anonymous 12554
>>12526I WAS addressing you. Try to answer the question based on my statement here:
>>12516If someone claimed that the biologically 40 year old woman in the pic was 15 (just like you can call an anime character whatever age you wish), would that make you a pedo to be attracted to her.
>>12552I feel like a lot of women here are longtime imageboard users and had shit experiences with the weirdo neckbeards that lurk 4chan and now think anyone who likes anime or has a "waifu" is a pedophile. Basically they are triggered by anything that reminds them of creepy neckbeards, and refuse to accept that chan users don't represent all of us. I like teenaged anime characters, but can't stand irl teens. Of course some girls here refuse to believe that we know ourselves better than they know us.
>>12549I don't think we'll agree because we disagree as to whether there is a sexualization of the age of these characters. I can agree on some series, but for most anime (including Serial Experiments Lain) the characters are underaged simply because the stories take place in high school. There are a number of theories on why most anime takes place in high school, but I HIGHLY doubt the motive is pedophilia.
And I'd even go as far as to say MANY people call their favorite characters their "waifus" more as a humorous way of stating "this is my favorite female character!" than "I want to fuck her!"
>>12534No, it's not. Pedophilia is abnormal worldwide, and if it were that common in Japan then most female anime characters wouldn't have giant tits and most anime focused on petite girls would not be "moe" (basically the opposite of sexualized).
Anonymous 12557
>>12554i agree with all your points, anon, but you have to remember many of our fellow miners really dislike 'men' in general and think that men who like small breasts are pedos too, of course they're going to think that people who like anime girls are pedos.

not because she's the god of the internet and can phase into reality or whatever.

>>12554I think we are not understanding one another.
I have no problem with high school students as long as they are not oversexualised explicitly by their age as some sort of fetishism.
What i do have a problem with is lolis and shotas, things that actually look like children but are portrayed as "okay" because they are cartoons or the author gives them some arbitrary age. Think hentai made out of shit like Made in Abyss children? Or like the shit posten in /nsfw/? Yeah, i consider anyone who even touches that with a ten pole foot a disgusting ass pedophile, no matter if it's a cartoon or not.
Same with lolis/shotas that look 4 but because the disgusting neckbeard that drew them says they are 3000 year old or of high school age is okay to draw them sexually and jerk off to them.
If it looks 100% like a child except for the age someone decided for them, it is a child, and it's disgusting to find them sexually attractive.
As a real life example, see the photographer Rotta (loli otaku, translated), he kept putting adult women in childlike situations for his photos, dressed them like Japanese high school students, etc, but claimed he had no attraction whatsoever to underage women or children, he just liked the "aesthetic". Turns out that allegedly he raped one or more teenagers, what a surprise.
So yes, imo most if not all people who like "lolis" or "shotas" most likely hold pedophilic tendencies regardless if they admit it or not, you cannot be attracted to everything that makes a child a child, but say you aren't attracted to children in the slightest just because it's a cartoon.

>>12564I guess the anime I like usually has some interesting visual elements. For example, Satoshi Kon and Akiyuki Shinbou both have very unique direction. The latter especially seems to play around with staging in a way that I haven't seen in any other dramatic medium. Arakawa under the bridge and Bakemonogatari are good examples of this. Some of his scenography (if that's the correct term in animation) is also very interesting, this can also be seen in Bakemonogatari as well as Hidamari Sketch.
The diegesis in a lot of anime is also quite intriguing. Of course , since all of these studios are based in Japan, they're able to draw from a completely different mythological and wider cultural tradition, in a way that's authentic. This obviously gives every a work a flavour that's more less unique from a western perspective. The lack of conflict in some anime is also quite refreshing for someone who grew up with Hollywood films. Actually, recently I've come to resent many western films and television because of their obsession with narrative tension and conveying a message. To me, cinema isn't about "being about something" or changing society, but rather the pursuit of audiovisual aesthetic appeal and some form of human truth. Even though the writing of much anime is trite, the medium has, to me, shown itself more capable of achieving these goals than much of western cinema.

It has been also proven that today the wage gap is a direct effect of childbearing. Actually, young women actually out-earn their male peers due to the education gap. Util the first pregnancy….

Feminism is supposed to be about equality. Equality between males and females. Which is not achieved by discriminating against either of genders. Instead, you are supposed to make compromises. Today only women can "temporary house" fetuses. We are nothing more than mere incubators, for a fetus it doesn't matter if they are related or not.

Here's something that'll blow your mind: Men were 14-year-old boys once, attracted to high school girls. Back then, no one would consider them to be pedophiles; in fact the only thing wrong with the attraction is that they've gotten OLD. As a society we might declare the age gap to be in poor taste, but to pretend it's a deep-seated evil is completely absurd.
Anonymous 13986
>>13984My first crush was on a boy when I was 10. I never again wanted to romance 10-year-olds, even when I was twelve.
I agree it's a complicated issue and the age of consent is a BIT arbitrary, but you seem to be somewhat condoning grown adults sleeping with/having relationships with underage people. A 30-year-old (heck, even 25-year-old) man has a better hang of himself and
should have more self awareness and cognitive ability than a 14-year-old girl.
I'd say the main reason we've agreed for the age of consent to be what it is (in the west) and why we look down on relationships between even two adults with large age gaps is due to our societies being more based in equal emotional and intellectual interactions. A majority of the time, teens and adults won't be on the same cognitive level as each other and adults can use that to their advantage to harm/use the younger party.
Even if your excuse here is that hebephiles/pedophiles are just underdeveloped adults, that doesn't excuse them from scarring a young person.
I realize I can't change your mind about things, arguments rarely amount to agreements. I'm just hoping that you aren't advocating for hebephilia to become acceptable to act upon!

I'd already been with 4 other guys by then so if the one I really liked had hit on me I would have pounced on him. In retrospect they were all losers though, cute losers. I'd hate to be trapped in a relationship with someone I fancied as young teenager.

PLEASE tHiNk oF tHe biiiiiirds!!" some urban areas are re-instituting archaic lethal-trap and trap-and-euthanize policies regarding outdoor cats.
This means if your indoor cat even slips out once, by mistake, in one of these areas, she could be killed by being lured into a meat baited killtrap, or else starve to death in a livetrap because no one bothers to check them anymore.
And this is all because some fucking hipsters wanted to rebel against liking cats as pets (because it's the mainstream currently) and now everyone thinks it's the "rad" new opinion to have.
In reality however, industrial operations utilizing flares (hint: those giant smokestacks with flames shooting out the top) can kill up to 1000 birds IN A SINGLE SECOND when the birds are lured toward the intermittent flaring in a flock.
But no one wants to talk about that. That opinion doesn't earn them the hipster cred and attention they crave, so instead they strategically position themselves in the center of a group of catlovers and then lay their turd of an opinion out there and wait to receive their much-craved attention, meanwhile reveling in the edgelord warm fuzzies.

>>17322>>17393Anyone who believes that animals are slaughtered specifically to go in cat food (or dog food) is delusional.
Simply look at the pricing structure of beef for humans vs pet food: you know the producers make a profit, and each can of cat food costs less than $1.50 USD in most places, that means that whatever in that can of "beef" (for example) costs the producer far less than $1.50 to procure. So that gives you a maximum price of ingredients, per can, of 50-cents USD.
Now compare that can's contents, by weight/price, to a slab of beef at your local butcher or supermarket: by weight, it weighs half as much as a small amount of shit-tier Minute steak or hamburger but steak or hamburger costs too much per can for the pet food company to purchase to put in their food, let alone produce (raise/purchase/slaughter). Do you still think that's Grade-A specially slaughtered beef in that can? I don't think so.
Now go watch some lions eating in the wild, see how they go straight for the internal organs? That's what's in your cat food, internal organs harvested out of cows that are previously slaughtered for human consumption, and that's in the high end brands with fancy ingredients. The 50-cent shit food at the grocery store is basically full of whatever they couldn't manage to stretch onto a Walmart-tier leather couch plus "beef by-products" and actual ash/charcoal as filler.
Pet food companies can't afford to slaughter animals in this economy, and they haven't put human-grade meat in their cat food since the 1970s. They buy the literal offal from the beef and leather industry.
If you try and live by the Indigenous people's belief of not allowing any part of the prey animal to be needlessly wasted, so as to make the sacrifice of their life matter more in the larger scheme, then modern cats actually fill a niche in the modern food production indubstry that allows for portions to not be wasted.
Do some research before adopting bullshit hipster opinions you hear on the internet, there are alternatives to feeding your cat store-bought pet food products. Contact a local small farm or butcher, they'll give you their undesirable internal organs/etc and unpurchased products for free as opposed to it going straight in the dumpster.

"Hearing birds tweeting outside my parents' condominium" is not "local ecology."
Your "local ecology" is made up of a food-web comprised of predator and prey species, which includes different types of species, including avaians and multiple felinids, not just domestic cats. Avians (that means "birds" but not just the pretty little song birds that you're thinking of) in general are both prey and predator, your precious song birds are targeted more frequently by predatory avavians than they are by cats, no matter how many cats there are in an area. Even Bluejays will target song birds, but so will larger Corvids such as Magpies and Ravens.
Omnivorous mammal species will also target your precious little song birds, including raccoons, dogs, and even toads and lizards in temperate areas. So, once again, song bird population is being "decimated" by more than just felines.
Even if there is evidence that domestic cats are hunting song birds in your specific area, Felinids (that means "cats" for you borderline illiterate hipsters) have been targeting birds as prey since before humans evolved and there are other felinids in populated areas aside from domestic cats, they can include Lynxes and Bobcats, both of whom also hunt song birds, so blame for "decimation" still doesn't lie entirely with domestic cats.
Even if you can specifically provide evidence of domestic cats hunting song birds in your local area, an average domestic cat, whether feral or a house cat, has a diet made up of more than just avian species, and if caught hunting could be targeting rodents, frogs, lizards, lagomorphs, etc as opposed to solely song birds. I don't hear you crying salty tears over rodent deaths in your "local ecology."
Even with all that said, your neighbor's cat isn't going to erradicate an entire species in its 6yr lifespan, sorry. And if a prey species faces difficulty in a specific area it relocates during it's next migration cycle, so sorry but trying doing actual research and then try again.

>Even Blyejays will target song birdsThe reason why nobody makes a stink about bluejays attacking songbirds is because that's never been shown to cause major disruptions to populations. Where's your research on how many domestic birds a Bluejay or Raven kills per year? Bet's on that they don't kill the annual estimate of 23-46 birds annually as do outdoor cats.
>cats have been targeting birds as prey since before humans evolvedNot the domesticated variety that are bred all over the planet and introduced into unnaturalized habitats because of us, no.
>why don't you cry over rodents, lizards, frogs, ""lagomorphs"" (you can just say rabbits, my tryhard friend)Well people do actually track the impact cats have on local wildlife mammals. But of course there's limited concerns as the reproductive cycles of rodents, rabbits, and frogs are quite rapid as you're probably aware.
>Even with all that said, your neighbor's cat isn't going to erradicate an entire species in its 6yr lifespanWhat can only lives six years unless it's a shit owner?
Probably because it's an outdoors cat and likely to get hit by cars, attacked by other animals, run away, or catch some nasty disease I suppose.
Do what's best for your pet: Keep it indoors, it also satisfies the concern over the impact your cat would have outside as well. Everyone wins.

Try also comparing reproductive cycles of various animals, you'll be surprised.
Try also looking up "average cat lifespan" since averaging a cat's age seemed to be a problematic concept for you.
Acceptable Sources:
This is going to be difficult for you, because my information comes from a lifetime of relevant research from many different sources, while yours was bullshit off of websites.
Obviously the main goal is to use university-level textbooks or equivalent, not just tripe off the interwebs. Try your best.
Bonus points: look up the history of felines as a species, including prehistoric and other early eras.
Good luck! It'll be life-changingly informative.

Politicians have used your exact argument about cats killing birds to justify using lethal traps on cats in urban areas all to save bird populations that no one even has clear irrefutable evidence of being preyed on by domestic cats.
I put forward several possible other explanations for birds either disappearing from urban habitats, or, barring evidence, being preyed upon. If this were argued in legal court there would be no evidence to clearly convict domestic cats of the "crime" of hunting birds in the face of all the other threats that face song birds specifically.
For the sake of those cats' lives I am arguing against people like you, who believe the cats are guilty, because I don't believe it's right, for a second, for those cats to suffer and die horribly for something you can't prove they even did.
You're pushing an opinion that is unprovable in the face of astounding evidence and is costing cats' lives and it needs to be publically refuted.

Pick up a fucking encyclopedia: look up corvids, look up how they eat song birds.
Go to your window: look for corvids, estimate local population.
Use math skills: if a corvid eats so many song birds per day and so many corvids exist in my local area, then how many bird deaths does that equal? Is this number smaller or larger than the 36 per year cats supposedly hunt?
Hint: it's larger.
Why should cats be killed for hunting when corvids and owls kill more birds?
I've already proven you'll neither convince me or stop me from proving you wrong. I've provided you the information to expand your knowledge and re-evaluate an opinion you hold which is harming others.

My argument, the one you quoted from the beginning, was that it's safer to keep cats indoors and feral, outdoor cats have a negative impact on local bird populations.
You told me no, it's not true. Meaning you have evidence to support that cats outside don't have a negative impact on local birds.
Stop chapping my ass about looking up fuck all in an encyclopedia. You're trying to blow over the issue by stating that because another bird sometimes preys on another bird that it makes up for the distinct drop in population in areas known for feral cats.
Nonsense. For the record I live in an urban area with blue jays and crows, and I've never seen either attack and kill another bird that comes to my feeder.

I don't think this could be implemented without some level of fuckery, but I think that it'd be optimal for the government to regulate who can get pregnant based upon hereditary diseases and family history, at least. Even better if they started having education requirements like China.
I also think that even more importantly, the government should regulate who is allowed to raise children. That's even more paramount to me than who should have children. I know this could totally result in fucked implications if the government gets exceedingly corrupted, but hell, I really, really hate seeing how babied parents are for being absolute shit at raising another human being.

>i've never heard 'redpilled and based' used in this contextIronic use of the terms for humor with no meaning beyond "cool" and "good". Especially when describing a thing or person that people who unironically use those terms aren't fond of, in this case Africans.
My post didn't actually mean anything at all. There are both Africans and African-Americans at my work and they call each other "brotha" and "sista" and all seem to feel some kind of kinship towards each other. There are a lot of native americans and eskimos in my region and they're much more divisive and excluding based on lifestyle, what village you're from or if you're from one at all, if you can speak any of the language etc.
But I've not seen this attitude about identity between Africans and locals, maybe they're understanding of the fact that it's not their fault they're rootless descendants of slaves and sympathetic that they might want to grasp at having some kind of culture or identity beyond the shallow one they've been handed.

>>18396I've never heard the terms 'redpilled and based' used outside of communities that put people down based on ethnicity, so that's why it struck me as odd. Irony gets a bit lost through text, I guess.
I'm guessing you're in Alaska, based on you referring to eskimo tribes? I come from the Southeast and that's what my experience is based on. There is a strong African-American culture in the city where I'm from, about 70% of our population is black, but oddly enough I feel like there's a similar amount of discrimination. If you're from a good neighborhood, you get judged by the people who aren't; if you don't use the same slang or speak with the same accent, then you're bullied for that. People who end up getting good educations and good jobs aren't 'one of us'. It's the crabs-in-a-bucket mentality.
But the thing is, I don't understand why you would want to grasp at a culture or identity besides the one you've experienced. I don't think the contemporary nature of a culture makes it a shallow culture.

I guess by "shallow" I just mean really recent, 400-500 years old vs ones that stretch a lot longer. We're often told we don't even have a culture. Their history here is being an underdog forever with success in sports and music.

Can you explain how/why it is ruining society?
I am pretty miserable but that mostly has to do with being broke/life not turning out the way I imagined and constantly being worried about having some kind of medical emergency or something that will obliterate my savings and leave me on the streets. I guess you could say that was caused by feminism because I can actually have the opportunity to work outside the home and support myself, but there being a chance of not make enough money to survive, and thus be depressed that I'm going to die on the streets. But I'd still rather be out in the workforce than any of the alternatives. A lot of women seem to desire something other than the traditional female role, myself included, and now we have that chance. So for that, I am grateful for feminism.
I don't see how women having more opportunities and not being excluded from certain arenas of life could be a net negative. But I'm interested to hear your thoughts.

Well just ignore that poster and answer the question. I really am curious. It will not be lost in the ether to me, I asked the question because I would like to know your view. It is something that I disagree with completely so I would like to hear your take on it.
Do you think it is better if women are restricted in what we can choose to do with our lives? Personally that is what feminism still means to me. I'm not well versed in the 'waves' so I may be ignorant, but in a nutshell I believe it gave women opportunities and freed us from restrictive roles that not all of us would be happy in. Some women would be happy in them, of course, but not all. And from where I'm standing, I don't see any reason for half the human population to be restricted to the home or childrearing if that isn't what they personally want.

In the time you took to write this post, you could have explained your reasoning a little bit or linked me to some of the data or sources. I've been exposed to plenty of people saying feminism is ruining society, so I wouldn't consider myself 'in an echo-chamber', however most of those people in my experience have an agenda or some type of prejudice toward women to begin with, so of course they see feminism in an unfavorable light.
But, to be honest, I asked you for your own personal thoughts because you posted your unpopular opinion here and I'm interested in what YOU have to say about the subject. Data and sources aren't necessary for your personal opinion, though would appreciate those as well if you wanted to take the time to go through them. Discussion is what the thread is for, and then people can disagree and discuss why people hold those opinions. If you don't want to answer, that is fine, but then I'm not sure why you opened up the opportunity for dissent to begin with. I have no intention of mocking you or not acknowledging your arguments. But I would like to at least have the opportunity to HEAR your arguments.
I'm not sure what you mean by 'female nature', but I just asked the question because your post intrigued me since it is an opinion that couldn't be further from my own and I wanted to know your reasoning. I'm not trying to be manipulative or annoy you or whatever you think female nature is. If you don't want to answer my questions, just say so and I won't bother asking.

I won't debate you, but I feel like neither you or I could see any point in arguing with each other at all. I read recently about the theory that progressive and conservative viewpoints all boil back down to how you see a family unit. Basically I'm saying that people with conservative opinions like the ones you've just stated see the world in terms of needing strong paternal figures and the structure they enforce, while progressives view the family as more of a neutral partnership less about the structure and discipline and more about empathy and positive development through positive reinforcement. This is only a metephore, but at the meat of it it means that broadly speaking, you either believe that the world is an awful place that a paternal figure must offer structure and protection from (traditional family units, but also broadly conservative politics) or that we can raise our children and shape the world in a way that changes us for the better (different family structure, progressive politics)
The elaborate point I'm making here is no matter how you or I try and communicate, we'll likely always be speaking across terms. It's probably impossible to ever come to an understanding.
I will say, that I find a lot of the idealistic comments conservatives make about the nature of women seem less like observed qualities in all women, and more like something they're trying to convince women to be, though

I've been wondering about anime and pedophilia for a bit, but I think this is Americans yet again demonizing some other country's culture because it's different to their own. I know that in America it's pedophilia to be attracted to 17 year old teenagers, but even 14 year old people can legally consent around my parts.
Japanese(asian) people in general have smaller breast(/penis) size, body sizes etc. It's more about cuteness than hotness in their culture also, from what I've seen. Anime is a very weird media and I don't quite get it myself for the most part but to say that it's pedophilic to like some drawn cute girls is a very gross overstatement I'd only expect an American to make quite frankly.
Picture related, is that fine? By the way those boys are 16 at most and in HS according to the authors, somehow that is fine? This is extreme sexualization. Aren't they hot and cute? If anime girls are the equivalence I see why men would like them too. Adolescents are pretty damn aware of sex.
Women in Japan, especially in the UN, quite aggressively defend their drawn "child" pornography. I don't know if rightfully so. Why do you think you have the right to tell them what they should have in their own country? In general I feel like Americans demonize anything sexual. Maybe that's why you're so violent compared to most european or asian countries. That aside, all adults in real life have childish traits. Some have childish faces, some are flat, some have small dicks, some act like children, some are very short, some have very child-like bodies (very subtle sexual dimorphism), if anyone likes them, sexually or not, does that make them pedophiles? I'd like to remind you, that for the most of human history, "age of marriage" was averaging around 12 years old. I was already past puberty at that point, I think I had my first period at 11, which is around average. It's actually not a medical condition to be attracted to someone during or past puberty. ie. you might not like it, you might find it disgusting, and in terms of morals it might be considered wrong. But in terms of biology it's not. That's the general medical consensus. There's a thing for it and it's called "hebephilia". As you can see, it's not nearly as simple as some of you would like to make it out to be.
I'd never consider it appropriate for a grown ass person to be in a sexual relationship with a 11 year old one, but if they just jerk off to them I think that's completely harmless. People who molest, hurt, rape should all be enclosed and maybe even killed if it's bad enough, but drawn pictures? "lolicon" and "shotacon" and people who consume it definitely do have some kind of pedophilic tendencies, but I don't see why we should persecute people for being… different? I mean if they are aware of it, if they don't go after actual children I don't see a problem, maybe that's the argument of the Japanese? Why does everything have to be like in America, why do you think your belief system is superior to somebody's else?
Just some food for thought. I don't think it's as simple as some people make it out to be.

Anime with cute girls is watched by women, one of the most popular series like Love Live in Japan is particularly popular with women. You'd know that, but you don't want to check anything and instead choose to be offended.

Do you have any proof to your assertions? You just keep taking out certain sentences out of my answers without fully answering the argument. You just want to offend yourself. You basically try to bring it down to "they all want to rape children". How do you even know things you say? Where do you get this information from? My best guess is "because all men are evil who want to rape children", I get it, you hate men, now get lost from this thread and go to the man-hating thread.

>>19427ntayrt but once i got to college i started finding it harder and harder to become infatuated with fictional high school characters. i couldn't relate to them any longer. that being said, i'll still watch shows like free! on occasion because i like shows with competition elements to them, and also the emphasis on developing friendships with your team-mates is nice. that being said, it's not the same as watching shows like no game no life and fapping to the idea of catching your 11-year-old sister in the bathtub.
I think the main problem is that even when it's fictional, loli/shota manga makes pedophiles think, 'well, sexualizing children is fine in Japan…'
And it makes me wonder how many of those guys cross the line from consuming loli hentai after a while, to searching for photos or videos of real children? They're just photos of naked little girls, right? Those kids aren't actually being hurt, they probably don't even know what's going on. Except that THOSE are real people, not just drawings. we can't prove that all the guys who consume loli/shota are doing this, but you can't disprove it either.
But if they're ever found out, then it severely harms their reputation/relationships, so it's best to stay away from it 100%. If I ever found out I had sexual urges towards children, I would commit myself to a religious order where I'd never come into contact with kids or something.
Like imagine being some dude's little sister and then noticing that his search engine history is full of incest/loli hentai. Maybe he's never acted on those urges before, but would you really ever feel comfortable around your brother after that?

Nobody wants to be associated with someone who has inclinations towards sexually abusing a child. Maybe the pedophile in question won't ever do such a thing, or maybe they've already done such a thing and just haven't been found out, but 99% of the population doesn't want to take the chance in the same way that they wouldn't want to chance living next to a psychopath (even if they don't have a criminal record). You can argue that it's just drawings of children, but the fantasy is what bothers people, not the medium.

This reminds me of when GTA5, a game where you play mass murdering psychopaths, came out and people selectively cared about how the game treated its female characters (atrociously) but not about its pervasive, extreme violence and antisocial fantasies.
Is it hypocritical to care about fictional depictions of sexual exploitation but not about violence and murder? Maybe that says something about our relationship with media.
I've heard that the Japanese tolerate their "anything goes" media because they see it as just silly fantasies without power over reality, and the people who take it seriously as fools.
Maybe we get incensed over them because we overestimate the power of fantasies to seep into the real world.
Only an idiot would commit real-world violence because of GTA.
This is easy to accept. As a society, we pity those idiots and don't think we should ban violent media because of them.
But why is "Only an idiot would do something with children because they consume a certain type of anime" harder to accept?
In both cases, we accept the negative consequences as outlier cases that only fools would commit.
This boils down to "because the later touches on our deepest fears," I think.
It's too scary to think about, isn't it? And we're scared that people can even fantasize about it.
It creeps me out, but rationally, I don't see the difference between violent fantasies and these kinds of fantasies. Only an idiot would act them out.

These are some of the explanations from the people who like lolis:
"yes because they are adorable but i don't like all lolis
only the cool ones others are anoying as fk"
"Pretty sure most people like them because they're cute."
"[So attraction (or sexual) is the main reason why people like loli's?]
I don't think so. That's probably a 1 in 10 kinda thing. Most of the time people just find em cute."
"Because they are the embodiment of happiness and everything right with this world. I adore and borderline worship them, they can do no wrong. For the most part it really is about that hyper exaggerated cute factor, although honestly if I see H-pics of them on Gelbooru or the like I'm not gonna complain. I don't actively sexualize them, just sometimes in the mood for a good loli loving. Doting on their adorable nature comes first."
" How can you not like these adorable stuff?"
So, apparently most of them like them because they're cute and make them happy, and apparently most of them only look at naked lolis because it's there in front of them, and wouldn't seek it out on their own.
My conclusion is that it's apparently about feeling happy about cuteness and not about real children.

>>33021There's at least one government commissioned study on that.
http://cphpost.dk/news/national/report-cartoon-paedophilia-harmless.htmlOther governments have probably also done similar studies, and given the way these things work they probably came to wildly different conclusions.
I've become a little skeptical of the idea, since lolcow's found several women interested in shotas in various ways, but I can't recall even a single one who translated her interest into real world abuse. That might be more a matter of "woman" than a matter of "shota," though. Shortly after publishing her book
The Beautiful Boy, Germaine Greer went on Canadian television and talked about boys having "sperm that runs like tapwater."
https://web.archive.org/web/20040803134429/http://www.tv.cbc.ca/national/pgminfo/greer/>GARTNER: Totally? You're 60, but sexy.>GREER: Who says?>GARTNER: I do. It doesn't mean anything coming from another woman?>GREER: Oh, it does mean something coming from another woman. It's just that, hmmm, I'm still very susceptible to men. Boys even more.>GARTNER: Really? What attracts you to boys?>GREER: Oh, everything; sperm that runs like tap water will do.And Greer's concept of boy is not men younger than her own age of 60, but men under the age of adulthood.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beautiful_Boy>"Well, I'd like to reclaim for women the right to appreciate the short-lived beauty of boys, real boys, not simpering 30-year-olds with shaved chests."[4] Her interest is very clearly 3d, not 2d. But, there is no reason to believe she ever inappropriately touched a child, or ever did anything worse than look. Women who like shotacon are probably harmless, because women who like boys are harmless. Males who like lolicon are probably legitimately dangerous, because males are legitimately dangerous to women of all ages. So, instead of banning hentai, society should ban men.
Anonymous 33028
I've considered more carefully my position on the issue.
I think an exceptionalist argument can be made for distinguishing lolicon from other forms of depiction of illegal content in media.
I've realized that maybe these arguments are highly emotional high-stakes all-or-nothing because the punishment is extraordinarily severe, basically lolicons would be bunched up as dangerous sexual offenders, spend years in prison and have their lives ruined. I think this is excessive, the punishment doesn't fit the crime. I think lolicon should be destroyed, so if found in possession they should be given a grace period to destroy whatever they own, with no punishment. If after this they still have it, then a fine, escalating up to prison time. I don't think it warrants an entry in the sex offender registry.
The rules would include women and shotacon, of course, for fairness.
I haven't made up my mind about fanfics yet, though, since they on the surface seem exempt from the reasoning that made me consider lolicon and shotacon as an exception.

Feminism is valid, but modern first world feminists have ruined its name for everyone with retarded hysterics and shit like calling mathematics "sexist."
https://ijkh.khistory.org/upload/pdf/6_05.pdfRead this. tl;dr women were oppressed worse than slaves as recently as 100 years ago, this is what we could have been put through had circumstances been different. Men do not just give women rights out of the goodness of their hearts, women must rise up and take their rights. Right now I feel like things are equal, but in the future they could very well return to women being complete slaves, forced to eat on the floor, cover their faces, forbidden to go outside or learn to read and write, forbidden from education, forced to be the slave of a husband in an arranged marriage, etc. The timeperiod before that had women and men mostly equal, and then with Joseon it all went to shit because they imported chinese confucianism, which is just vile sexist bootlicking dogshit. I believe strongly in gun rights. "God may have made men and women, but Mr. Samuel Colt made them equal." All women should buy a gun and learn how to use it. It's pretty good right now as a first world woman, but it could revert back at any minute. And needless to say a lot of women globally are still very much oppressed.
Studying history is the true redpill. There was a disgusting story I just read where a woman in joseon korea had another man than her husband touch her arm, just touch her arm, so she cut off her own arm, and that was praised as the best moral mindset for women to have. Confucianism is disgusting patriarchal dogcrap. Eastern religions are praised by retards in the west as peaceful and wise, like no, read history. Women in asian countries were treated worse than slaves, so much for "muh ancient chinese wisdom." The kind of shit I've read is unbelievable. Confucianism is pure evil. (tl;dr on it–obey the social caste system, bow to authority, accept injustice, be subservient, and for women you must always lower yourself before men and obey their orders, never question them.) I've never encountered any other religion even close to being as evil as that. Confucius was an absolute monster and I'm tired of western dipshit hippies treating him like chinese jesus.

It's THE patriarchal philosophy and the only reason modern incels haven't jumped to it more fiercely (what is it, like thousands and thousands of years of finetuned, raging misogyny that resulted in the downfall of several civilizations) is because they can't even into its basic principles, which do admittedly require a modicum of thinking and self control before one gets to the "men ams better than womens" part.
>Confucius was an absolute monster and I'm tired of western dipshit hippies treating him like chinese jesus.Personally, laughing at the tards who can't even read past the introductory footnotes for it is sport, nothing to get mad or care too much about.

>>33067Thank you for reading my rant and understanding my feels. I'm strongly anti-authoritarian on top of being egalitarian (true gender equality.) Confucianism just sets me off like nothing else. Even his "wisdom" is just shallow truisms. Yudkowsky wrote about that kind of thing, calling it applause lights. The test is if you take it and reverse it, is that something anyone would ever argue? If not, it's not a choice, not deciding between one thing and the other, rather, it's calling water wet.
“The will to win, the desire to succeed, the urge to reach your full potential… these are the keys that will unlock the door to personal excellence.” – Confucius
Let's take that and reverse it. Would anyone ever say "you don't need a will to win, you don't need desire to succeed, you don't need to want to reach your full potential, and you can still achieve personal excellence that way"? No. His shit is all just nonstatements like this, little fortune cookie meaningless blurbs rigged to sound wise until you actually think about it for five seconds. Westerners treat it like some mystical ancient wisdom…It's nonsense and pretension. He was a charlatan.
I can't believe one man managed to destroy an entire region for a thousand years. How many women's lives were completely ruined by this shitbag and his brainless followers? All confucianism is, it's bread and circuses to placate the masses and justify the ruling class's own power. "magic chinese jesus say respect your lord and accept your place." "Yes master wow so wise, let me kill myself once my husband dies because society says women are useless burdens not worth living except to be sex slaves and servants!"
How many people suffered unspeakable horror and abuse because jackasses pushed that bullshit? And now dipshit gen x'ers treat it like cute little quotes to put on facebook to fellate themselves that they're so well read and worldly. Drives me up a wall.
Thank god I wasn't born then. I'd take a kitchen knife to any husband who said I had to eat on the floor, wrap my face in a rag, and could never disobey or divorce him.

>>33090It really is a shame. Korea for example had stronger, equal rights for women prior to Confucianism. Geniuses behind sexism can't figure out that beating the opposite gender (male or female) into serfdom makes for unhappy children makes for unhappy families makes for unhappy civilization. QED? Even with a selfish mindset, you'd have to be an utter retard to not see it.

>>33067Now I'm not a high-IQ philosopher scholar anthropologist historian person classics-expert but I remember reading a article by some humanities blogger; IIRC it was a blog entry on Zuck's sister's (who herself is a academic on the classics) website writing on how a portion of the whole alt-right/chan/incel demographic has latched onto stoicism and other ancient schools of thought to fit into their on views; even if some of it is just misunderstanding due to glossing just over the simple surface stuff (JP worship and will-power fetishism). Normally I am dismissive and don't care much for these types; but the article did seem like a decent read. I also remember it describing how those men in their online discussions would often with their distorted heterodox philosophy would often be dismissive of women's and others problems and would result in this "womenz can't into Aristotle/Seneca cause their irrational". Goes back to the whole pol-tard caricature where everyone pretends to be some kind of traditionalist Christian survivalist into Russian literature and who is competent at rural living and weight-lifting despite posting on a anime video game imageboard.

Consuming violent media doesn't mean you want to be violent, nor will it make you violent if you aren't. But people who already have violent tendencies will be drawn to this type of media too. When they act out afterward, some people will blame it on the game (or movie/music/book depending on the era).

This is a bit of a hot take,
Female social pressure in the U.S. doesn't always pressure women to be hot and feminine, sometimes quite the opposite where if a girl is feminine like having concern of their clothes and makeup then they would be perceived as vain, bitchy, dumb, basic, fake, slutty, weak and etc. by a surprisingly large amount of people of all ages, races and gender. This pressure can lead a woman to restrict her self expression because of not wanting to be percived in a negative light , the pressure would also lead to groups of woman to strive to be "not like those other girls" and create internal misogyny which would pit women aganst eachother and helps perpetuate a non-existent competition between women who could otherwise possibly bond. This is perpetuated in recent media of the 21st century, i.e. teen movie/ cartoon villans being a fem becky or You Belong to Me by Taylor Swift.

I used to be gender equal and argue in favor of men's rights. But honest to god I'm starting to think men all want nothing more than to control and subjugate women. If we look at history it's always been that way. This recent abortion ban nonsense is revitilizing toxic male urges to suppress and control women. Everyone talks about it like bearing a kid is the woman's "punishment" for having the audacity to, gasp, have SEX, how DARE that WHORE. No one mentions the obvious, that there was a male enabling that oh-so-morally-outrageous sex and there was a male being just as "irresponsible" to cum inside without a condom (though anyone who isn't an incel knows that condoms break pretty easily.) What about the male's responsibility in the morally outrageous sex act? The woman goes through 9 months of hell, risks death, and permanently ruins her body as this so called punsihment for DARING to have SEX oh my fucking god, well what about the man? Zero consequences, apparently. Not a single god damned person mentions the responsibility of the sperm provider. Same thing with the double standard on mansluts versus females who are promiscuous. The guy gets a pat on the back, the woman they lambast endlessly and give themselves hernias to scream at until they're blue in the face.
The west has a serious woman hate issue, and serious problems with feelings of shame for natural, healthy human sexuality, and it probably stems from toxic Christian influence. xtianity is absolutely evil. It teaches to hate and subjugate women, to disrespect women, to treat women like possessions and objects, introduces feelings of shame about anything sexual that are so hammered in from childhood that all the west has deep seated disorders around their own sexuality. Even I get hit with feelings of ridiculous shame and anxiety when masturbating. Xtianity is widespread mass child abuse, it's as harmful to emotional-social development as child abuse. And what do you know, the religion places males above females in matters of power. Until recently women weren't even allowed to go into monastaries or become priests. Misogyny and Xtianity go hand in hand, same with judaism and islam and all other abrahamic religions. They're spiritual poison and need to be eradicated.
I can't even browse 4chan right now. This endless incel celebration over the backwards redneck abortion ban is absolutely viscerally disgusting. I'm trying not to become misandrist but they're making it really hard for me. These people are sick.
God forbid a human being makes a mistake in their life. No, no, they have to be PUNISHED, but only WOMEN, and only for having SEX with a man who isn't THEM. That's the real root of the problem. Men all want a damned personal harem of women bowing before their little cock. Hilarious because women can cum multiple times and men can only cum once. If anything, women should be the ones to have the harem of cockslaves at their disposal, logically speaking. Oh, men love love love logic, but only when it benefits them. They're hypocritical in every word that comes out of their mouths. I'm starting to think men might just be fundamentally evil. I can't even fathom holding such vile hatred.
American males seem to be the worst out of anyone. Maybe they all just have repressed bitterness about being circumcised. Fucking psychopaths.

Unpopular hot take from me, I don't think intercourse is even worth the risk when everything else feels better. It seems like even most women feel more physical pleasure from the "foreplay" more than the actual penetration, so what's the point? Then a good 80% of women can't orgasm from penetration alone, you can only orgasm if the stars align and you're built exactly right for it, meanwhile 99% of guys can finish quickly and be satisfied. Penetration sucks. I can see why guys take the risk, but I don't see why women do. Aside from the rationalization a lot of women give, such as the emotional aspect of feeling ~desired~ and ~wanted~ and pleasing someone else at the expense of your own pleasure all the time, but that's stupid to me.

>>57048Stuff like this mostly. It's a whole attitude that I see a lot on the internet and in the young lesbians I know in real life. Like: I'm so gay lol,

>>57300>>57301I feel like all that kind of shit was written by straight men larping as lesbians. Read: trans"bians". Oh, autogynephilia…

>>57300>>57304>>57041Eh, I think some of it is an expression of likely newfound identity in a culture that is overly encouraging of women desiring men. Some are also bisexuals, meaning they feel the pressure to prove their attraction to women.
Just biting back at comphet and trying to overcome youthful insecurity. It is pretty cringe if it's their whole personality though.

>>57316People are the cringiest about things when they've just begun to identify with them, it takes time to mellow out and learn the pitfalls of an identity

I genuinely don't think fatphobia is a real thing, nor does it deserve to be at the same level of racism and misogyny.

>>57304Maybe, I lurked through /lgtb/ a little while ago and discovered what ''autogynephilia'' is… ew
>>57316What you suggest seems like an understandable perspective.
>It is pretty cringe if it's their whole personality though.Yes.
>>57317Yes. I have to admit that most of the times I have the sensation (from the people I see in real life rather than from the posts I see online from lesbians I don't know) that what you just said is more the result of following some sort of ''trend'' that being a lesbian or bisexual has become, rather than just the first step towards building your identity. I know I'm being judgemental but the presence of this stuff is SO BIG at my uni that I'm extremely tired of it. We all did dumb things is highschool but when I see this kind of sentences on the back of the bathroom doors at the campus I feel like I'm traped in highschool era forever with these people.
