>>4004140>>4004354I'd like to ask you, specifically - since this distinction hasn't been fully clarified yet - WHO, exactly, are you criticizing?
You say you're criticizing gay shotacons who post on forums like this one, but if that's the case, then your complaints of their gaze perverting boyhood makes no sense. Shotacons are a very small group of people, with niche, homoerotic readings of media that rarely actually bleed into the lives of real boys - your "shotacons and their perversions are making boys afraid to be gay" affirmation applies WAY more to broader conservative society, that makes boys feel like homoeroticism (which we already established undeniably occurs) is a bad thing.
The lack of gay shotacon influence on IRL boys is evidenced by the fact that the media you're using to exemplify the dangers of shotacons - Black Butler, Made in Abyss - is not media typically shown to children, but too adults. It would make much more sense to compare the "wholesome", nonsexualized boy-targeted media of the past (Mowgli, Astroboy, etc) to the boy-targeted media of today - things like The Amazing World of Gumball, Steven Universe, or the Fairly OddParents, none of which are distinctly "perverted" in the way you're criticizing.
It seems to me like you're deliberately going out of your way to blame a small, often-subjugated group (gay shotacons) for a massive societal issue which has little to do with them, while using media made BY and FOR them to exemplify why this is the case. To push this idea, you use ridiculous, moralistic rhetoric that serves to paint their niche media as something that "ruins" boyhood (despite the fact that it oftentimes depicts complexities often denied to boys). You can see why that reads as reactionary and homophobic, right?
(3/3)
