In the anime and manga series, Shōtarō is a bold, self-assertive detective who frequently outwits his adversaries and helps to solve cases. The term "shotacon" is a Japanese contraction of Shōtarō complex ( 正太郎コンプレックス, Shōtarō konpurekkusu), a reference to the young male character Shōtarō (正太郎) from Tetsujin 28-go. Some critics claim that the shotacon genre contributes to actual sexual abuse of children, while others claim that there is no evidence for this, or that there is evidence to the contrary. Seinen manga, primarily aimed at otaku, which also occasionally presents eroticized adolescent males in a non-pornographic context, such as Yoshinori "Yuki" Ikeda, the cross-dressing 14-year-old boy in Yubisaki Milk Tea. Elements of shotacon, like yaoi, are comparatively common in shōjo manga, such as the popular translated manga Loveless, which features an eroticized but unconsummated relationship between the 12-year-old male protagonist and a twenty-year-old male, or the young-appearing character Honey in Ouran High School Host Club. As such, shotacon themes and characters are used in a variety of children's media. As with lolicon, shotacon is related to the concepts of kawaii (cuteness) and moe (in which characters are presented as young, cute or helpless in order to increase reader identification and inspire protective feelings). The usage of the term in both Western and Japanese fan cultures includes works ranging from explicitly pornographic to mildly suggestive, romantic, or in rare cases, entirely nonsexual, in which case it is not usually classified as "true" shotacon. The equivalent term for attraction to (or art pertaining to erotic portrayal of) young girls is lolicon. The phrase is a reference to the young male character Shōtarō ( 正太郎) from Tetsujin 28-go (reworked in English as Gigantor). It can also apply to post-pubescent (adolescent or adult) characters with neotenic features that would make them appear to be younger than they are. A cutoff of "about 15" has been suggested as the dividing line between shotacon and BL. In others, he is paired with a female, which the general community would call "straight shota" or oneshota (おねショタ), a blend of onē-san (お姉さん, older sister) and shota. In some stories, the young male character is paired with a male, usually in a homoerotic manner, which is most common in yaoi/Boys' Love (BL) works meant for female readers, but some of these works are male-oriented, such as Boku no Pico. The term refers to a genre of manga and anime wherein prepubescent or pubescent male characters are depicted in a suggestive or erotic manner, whether in the obvious role of object of attraction, or the less apparent role of "subject" (the character the reader is designed to associate with). Like homosexuality, there’s no victim, it’s not illegal, yet it’s still considered a moral crime.Shotacon ( ショタコン, shotakon), abbreviated from Shōtarō complex ( 正太郎コンプレックス, shōtarō konpurekkusu), is, in Japanese contexts, the attraction to young (or young-looking) boy characters, or media centered around this attraction. I don’t think artists should be censored because some individuals can’t tell the difference between fiction and reality.īeing completely against this type of art is nothing more than a prejudice Lolicon is not linked to actual pedophilia and it’s not dangerous and completely legal, meaning it’s not any type of paraphilia. The way I see lolicon is an art form/kink. It’s illegal to share pornographic content with minors. There’s an actual or potential victim in this case and that makes it pedophilia. Using loli to groom actual children is illegal and wrong. A pedophile can absolutely be a lolicon but not all lolicons are pedophiles. I’ve found no evidence that being attracted to a seemingly underage character means you’re attracted to them in real life. Pedophilia is a mental illness that’s debatably a sexuality.
The main argument I hear is how if you start out liking lolicon you’ll become interested in real children or that lolicon is used to normalize the idea of pedophilia. If that’s therapeutic, why are we trying to stop people from doing so? She said that in his treatment he was asked to draw the situation that happened. Kristin Piper regularly posts updates about him. There’s an actual case where a minor was diagnosed with pedophilia, had 2 victims, and underwent treatment. It’s perfectly normal and healthy to express yourself through art.
She could look 5 but Actually be a 1000+ year old dragon, or have the body of a 20 year old and actually be a child. Yes, con does quite literally mean pedophile and loli a young girl, but in this case I’m talking about the genre of anime and manga.Īge in anime is literally just a number.
