>>2481234The old shota was midget porn.
The new shota is 5'11'' baby face with no muscle tone that people will call CP because 4chan's aging demographic of 30yo somethings are condescending enough to call teenagers "children" that get conflated with "minor" in countries like Canada where pornographic depictions of even fictional minors is not allowed.
Therefore a character like Leonardo Watch, who is a 21yo bachelor living on his own who is a twink, and "looks" like a teenager, a.k.a. looks like a
minor, a.k.a child, a.k.a "shota".
Note: this retarded slippery slop reasoning only applies to male characters.
Nobody is extending "loli" to include Sailor Moon despite the fact that she is a minor in high school.
