Yep, there is a reason a plant expels hundreds of seeds - only a couple survive in the wild.

Bit ironic considering the sharpshooter fallacy within your first statement. All I said is, there is more to it. But hey, why not gaslight the other person that they wrote an “out of faith” argument?

Agree, the problem is that there isn’t resources to help those that are having these problems. Within applicable law, people with paedophilic disorders and other minor attractions should be able to be helped - in all the modern cases, this is practically impossible until the harms are done (either to others or themselves).

The major problem is the stigma.

But we know brains behave a bit differently when sexually aroused.

We know that all brains are different, and it isnt a matter of arrousal (which doesnt really make much sense in the long run). The fact is that, it really depends on the person if the fictional stuff theyre doing - they want to do in real life. Psychology is a wide field that isn’t just limited to arousal.

Exactly, correlation does not imply causation. But even so, that risk in research is what is socially needed. Now there where such risk takers before, but if pseudoscience is what modern society relies on, then we are not as progressive as I thought.

Penis-epsi

Think I got it right guys.

What type of anime where you looking at?

Like western animation, anime has many genres, so you have a wide choice in that aspect. Its not hard to just filter out the ones that are not liked.

Are we just quoting big brother here?

Its the same situation like many have described:

To say that lolicons are pedophiles is equivalent to say that gamers who play violent games blowing up buildings or slashing people into a million pieces are terrorists.

Its really depends in the end, and like other commenter said, such question is hard to prove fully because there is barely any research.

I think you missed the point on 2.

Yes, but I guess people want punk version 2 now, judging by this image.

I agree, thats what being punk is all about. This ain’t a stereotype but the essence of punk, so this meme/picture template isnt even true.

yuck someone else’s yum even if I feel weird about the whole thing 🤷‍♀️

I’m quite the same honestly, but like you said - there isn’t a need to be a dick about it, already a surplus of them around.

In terms of birth defects, that may be right. But it really depends on the generation of in-breading. A single generation wouldnt do much harm but has the potential to if it continues. Of course, about the trauma and power dynamic bits, that may be a hit or miss as it doesn’t really hold.

That is correct, and that is why we shouldn’t make any wild assumptions which dont hold up to the facts. This is essentially shooting blindly within the smoke - there are better ways than relying on assumptions or the “feel”.

I agree, as long as consent is stated then no harm is done. Consent between people is important; but in these cases, they should know where they stand

I think he means children in this case. Like a teenager is literally more than fine looking at the stuff as long as its not some fucked up shit (but that applies to everyone really).

The thing op misses, is the usecase of parental controls. Children should absolutely be guided around the internet, until they grow up to being teenagers.

Quite the irony when those children are being used as tools. Their age is weaponised against them and projected towards everyone.

Generation classifications are as accurate as astrology - both are pseudoscience and have no basis. They can be used “just for fun”, but the issues is that such classifications have solidified within society as the truth.

Its really a thing that’s based on huge inconsistent assumptions.

So how many wheels do you want reinvented…

Thats why he is more accurately a rapist. There where instances where he raped legal adults, so it checks out. Of course, since children are vulnerable, it is more probable he’ll go there - teenagers/young people would be his second choice followed by others.

In addition, the previous allegations of him being a infantophile further proves the point.
