I don't know why you're bringing such a topic into this conversation. Why are you trying to compare and relate the two. Like I'm not saying you're trying to touch children in real life but what you're consuming in media regardless if it's fictional or not it is still deserved of criticism..... I'm done.... ya'll are too thick in the head

.. you do realize the hypocrisy of that statement, right? there are actual predators who thrive off this type of content as well. this DOES contribute to the sexualization of children, whether you like it or not, whether you're a predator or not.
and you can't justify one aspect of sexualization of children with another act of sexualization of children. one is worse, obv, but neither are ok. you know it, we know it, everyone who's mentally matured to a certain point and can recognize right/wrong knows it. thats why, imo, ya'll take this so personally. it's taboo or w.e and you can like it and keep it to yourself if you don't want backlash, but you can't expect people who dislike the content to be quiet abt it when you're not, or understand why you like it/are ok with and accept your reasons.
i get it, it's fiction, but it's still a depiction of a child. i'm not saying you or others can't separate reality from fiction, but do understand there are ppl who can't or are too young to recognize it. i'm not shitting on you for reading this, but do understand you will be criticized when you comment on people's posts disagreeing with you. they can make posts about disliking the content, the genre, etc., just as much as you can make your own. you're not going to convince them not to.
why does he look like a child... Nasty
