I mean, depending on the loli.... no. They aren't. And when in the context of more sexual lolisho bullshit, children aren't being thought of at all.
It's usually, from what I've seen, more symbolic or because of the aesthetic style.
@mofuuiix .............I mean. I've already told you that I think no loli or shota looks like a child. so. yknow.
But sure. That one green haired chick from one punch man doesn't look like a child despite lolicons saying she's a loli.
Bachiko from Welcome To Demon School, Iruma, too
@mofuuiix I mean, some lolisho do, both for "2000 year old dragon" types and also "they're just short" types. Oppai loli definitely don't look like children, I'll tell you that much.
But they more represent something more.... vague. Symbolic, almost, I've found.
@nanami_tojis_ho Whoopsies, a CSA survivor brought up how "being allowed to talk about our sexual abuse" is relevant to this law, and suddenly nanami_tojis_ho doesn't wanna talk anymore!
weird how this always happens.
@nanami_tojis_ho Cool. You realize that this is something that happens via law, which is not necessarily a thing the president can always have control over, as recent news has demonstrated.
You think there is no way in which a law like this would benefit CSA survivors?
@mofuuiix@crimsoni_ But the gap between reality and the stylized depiction is so immense that our mind doesn't really consider it to be the same thing at all.
As a media trope, we may use large eyes to symbolize innocent or childishness.... But real children don't have this shit.
@crimsoni_@mofuuiix Also, watch out for your glass house you're throwing stones in, considering you're an avid fan of a game you think has pedophiles who made it
and thus are financially supporting pedophiles
@crimsoni_@mofuuiix I'm sorry you're a child who thinks cooties are real, etc etc
But yes, the psychology of the brain in regards to sexual kinks, esp with things that are extremely stylized like lolisho bullshit and furries, is neat.
@nanami_tojis_ho Sigh. CSAM. requires a real child to be abused.
Whether you like it or not, writing about someone is not abusing them (generally speaking). CSAM refers to visual media such as photographs and videos.
