Author Topic: Do you think Lolicon should be considered child enthusiasm?  (Read 70654 times)

You got depression? Society doesn't give a stuff. Go jump in front of a train.

Why is it society's fault if you're a huge bitch who can't handle the real world? Why is it my responsibility to take what I've earned and give it to weak, useless people? Either work a job and pay for happy pills or kill yourself, it's not right that they should sit around all day doing nothing and then being financed by the government to be a professional mooch.

Holiday seasons, and you're a businessman trying to get enough money to buy gifts, but the time rolls around and you're extremely stressed and overworked? Another train needs repairs, and the line is delayed. It's pretty forgeted in Japan.

This is adult life in general. Missing holidays for work is extremely common and nothing to cry about.

Milleniels truly are the worst generation

Welcome to Japan. You got depression? Society doesn't give a stuff. Go jump in front of a train. Holiday seasons, and you're a businessman trying to get enough money to buy gifts, but the time rolls around and you're extremely stressed and overworked? Another train needs repairs, and the line is delayed. It's pretty forgeted in Japan.
Good. No one should have to hold a grown mans hand.

By definition it is child enthusiasm, so yes.

I misinterpreted the title. Yes, it is child enthusiasm. No, I don't think it should be illegal.

whether or not r34 counts as loli depends on whether the character depicted is an underage girl or not
it really doesn't have anything to do with the fact that it's r34

Except that's assuming the people are looking it up because it looks like underaged girls. It's not child enthusiasm if the girl is drawn and looks way older than she is. A lot of art (esp fictional characters) look far older than they are and a lot of weird anime characters might look 6 but actually be 45 or 901. In fiction, age =/= body and that's what people are primarily attracted to. Anyone can assign any age to any body since it's art. Would it be creepphilic to be attracted to an actor playing an underaged character? What about an appropriately aged character with an underaged actor?

'child enthusiasm' is generally considered an extremely offensive term and I don't think many guys would appreciate you comparing them to child rapists because they thought Hermione had a nice ass.

wouldn't say a child enthusiast, but id make fun of you for being a cliche kissless virgin if you fantasize about emma watson

boutta make myself look like an starfish here but...

No.

Lolicon/shotacon/whatevertheforget, while having children in it, is drawn.
drawings do no real harm to anyone.
also is WillyMcMilly in here defending his child enthusiasm?

Im just gonna holla at this,
My step brother raped my sister and forgeted her up mentally because now shes lesbian and hates all men.
I do not like being compared to someone like my POS step brother who took double takes at children and ruined my family.

there are two sides to every story

what if she was always a batstuff lesbian feminist and he redpilled her on the patriarchy so she accused him of rape

It's pretty damn inconvenient when your train to your job is delayed by a nutjob commiting Self Delete

now I'm not quite sure what you're saying here but it sounds like you're saying you don't like people calling you a child enthusiast for being a child enthusiast (i.e. jacking it to loli stuff) and basically all there is to say about that is maybe you should've considered that before telling people you're a child enthusiast?

"hey bro come check out this hot little girl"
"naw bro its cool its just a drawing"

Is the person being depicted a child? If so, it is child enthusiasm. It's research meant for people who are attracted to children. child enthusiasts.
Is fictional child research less harmful? Sure. However, it is still child enthusiasm because at its root, it is research that depicts a child.

The only meaningful exceptions I can think of it is if the character is intentionally aged forward or if the age is particularly ambiguous.
