>>230053In defense of this I've heard that a majority of straight shota eromanga and vast yaoi shota doujinshi is drawn by and for women. But Japan is too erotically advanced for the western mind to comprehend. Even though they are a minority drawing serialized eromanga. I'd say in the west the average woman likes characters around the age of Shinji, Edward etc skewing older with a bubble around typical shota age.
Also for anime there is a secondary attraction to the relationship of the characters, some can be very powerful/intoxicating. Most good yaoi or yaoi bait can do this, but also Gon and Killua I don't like either of them but I love their chemistry, same for Sebastion and Ciel.
But at the end of the day fujoshi are never going to give up shota and they are the ones who create and consume it, even if radfem dies fujoshi stay constant (baring a Abrahamic religious revival). There is clearly a cyclic cycle to popular feminism
(Nothing that hasn't already been said here)
As for the comments on Korea this is true, radfems wouldn't stop talking about banning loli&shota, "child exploitation material" etc but another group within radfems had the opinion that "Lolita Complex is a crime but Shotacon is a respected taste" (That was in response to commentary on the case mentioned earlier). This was basically South koreas atheism+ moment (or TERF moment), but instead of fighting over SJ (or trannies) it was over shotacon. Of course you can't pin it all on this, but the classic divide and conquer is always the turning point. The true blackpill is that they stopped being a useful political distraction and were dissolved.
I was extremely bearish on any radfem groups getting any real change even at full force, but I thought we would at least passed an abortion law. Atheism on the other hand, back in the late 2000s we could have exercised all traces of Christianity from America by now, easily, if we didn't fracture. What did we get? Some rolled back DEI initiatives? Pronounce? Whoopee. MeToo was good though, but retrospect feels like lots of words with little action.
