    now do a research on the effect of lolis (young sexualized girls) in japanese media and whether it has an effect. i wouldn’t be surprised if the outcomes were similar, yet lots of people still whine about it.

      Yeah, if violent games (and I mean real ones, where you literally play as evil maniac) don’t make people do violence irl why would lolicon games (even hardcore stuff like teacher rape fantasy) make them do pedo crime.

        what i meant that people don’t always care about the facts (of whether it actually does harm) as can be seen by your response.

          You’re not wrong on it increasing pedophilia but nobody’s going to respect pandering to or defending pedos. As … should be obvious.
