>>2964707Shota is sort of vague, but 4chan rules state “prepubescent” which gives more definition. Prepubescence is dependant on the individual ad you can begin puberty at the age of 9. It’s also not medically classified as a mental illness if you’re into anything post-pubescent because being interested in a sexually capable being justifies the attraction.
I think liking a 9 year old in artwork is pretty gross. But around 13/14 I don’t think I really give a shit. Anyways, so long as there is something that shows puberty like foreskin retraction, semen, muscle development, pubic hair etc then I think based on those facts alone you can argue it’s not Shota. Otherwise it’s impossible to tell, like the images found here. If you can’t clearly tell they’re at least going through puberty, then its shota imo.
