Yes, they are. And shota and loli are perfectly fine terms to describe them. Calling them child porn has connotations, and it is silly to pretend otherwise. Child porn has a specific meaning that goes beyond the two separate meanings of the words.

What in your mind is loli/shota? In Japan lolicon and shotacon are just terms for cp, drawn or not. Is only real life porn involving real kids the only form of cp to you? Would you look at a manga depicting an five year old being penetrated, and say "my oh my, this certainly doesn't look like anything that could be called cp, and I'm going to refuse anybody who would understandably call this porn involving a child 'cp'"?

[philstar22]

I'd find it distasteful. But I really think the term CP is for real life people only. If we use it for other things, it kind of dumbs down its meaning. And while I'd personally find that manga distasteful, I'd say it isn't as bad as real life. I do think there is a level of fiction is fiction to it. I think that kink is icky (though I can see a survivor using it to cope). But it isn't real people. And honestly, I actually think that if people keep it as fiction and don't use real people, that's so much better. It might actually save some lives.

You are completely, absolutely correct in this thread. CP is not a term that should extend to fictional characters; when words and terms start to become flexible like that, they risk -in this case- the severity of the original word/term.

Shota/loli is repulsive, but it is not harming children. This is the way I see it: pedophilia can't be stopped, and so many people don't understand that pedophiles aren't child molesters until they become child molesters. And if drawn characters of children stops them from indulging in actual CP or harming children in person (and it can), then, honestly, that needs to be viewed as a separate thing.

[(Anonymous)]

Okay, since you seem pretty informed and advocating this issue:

What about fictional characters that are not animated. Like for example, how do you distinguish loli of the character of Eleven from Stranger Things from cp of the actual actress? Is it that one is drawn and the other would be photomanips? Do you really think it's a different experience? If someone writes shota fic of Gotham's Bruce Wayne, is that cool? Is it a visual image vs words?

What do you think pornographic content is FOR, by the way?

[(Anonymous)]

Different anon:

The difference is, could I look at that picture and think that it really portrays that actress really getting abused in reality? A drawing or painting of her that is obviously a drawing or painting, no. A very well-done photomanip, maybe.

I mean, loli is obviously cartoons. No one would mistake it for photodocumentation of an actual illegal act.

Whether someone gets off to it or not isn't the point. People get off to all sorts of things. There are certainly murder fetishists who get off to Hannibal - that doesn't make Hannibal real snuff porn. Is loli obviously aimed at people who get off to fantasies about children? Definitely, and it's gross. That doesn't make it the same thing as child porn, which requires a real child to be harmed to create.

I don't think it helps anyone to blur that distinction. I think that distinction is extremely important when it comes to matters of law enforcement and victim support. If people start calling the FBI over loli cartoons on Tumblr, that takes resources away from investigating real crimes.

[(Anonymous)]

I've been around the block one too many times on this discussion to have anything to add, but yeah, MTE.

[(Anonymous)]

Okay, I see your point. But if someone drew a picture of a person being ripped in half, would that be the same as a photo of a person in the process of being ripped in half? I'm honestly just wondering.

[(Anonymous)]

If otakus advocated people-getting-ripped-in-half porn, and a good chunk of anime culture involves dealing with the people constantly defending the sexualization of people getting ripped in half, and having the whole anime industry bend towards shoving people getting ripped in half for the fucking nerds who refuse to consume media that doesn't hint at people getting ripped in half at least every twenty seconds, maybe I'll treat this argument well.

My point is that lolicon and shotacon does involve sexualization of kids by a lot of people who are motivated by reasons not involving coping for past trauma, and instead for other reasons (hint: it's the peepee), which I think does put it in the same vein as CP. In kink places, there's always the separation of fantasy from reality and a great understanding of mutual consent, but doesn't apply when the fantasy at hand is diddling kids.

So I'll say that shota/loli and cp are two leaves on the same branch, but shota/loli is highly insidious in how culturally accepted it is, and how much it is catered to.

n kink places, there's always the separation of fantasy from reality and a great understanding of mutual consent, but doesn't apply when the fantasy at hand is diddling kids.

Why not? What is it about kids specifically that is somehow the one fantasy that can't be indulged in a strict-separation-of-fantasy-from-reality context? There are lots of highly taboo, dangerous, and illegal things that people roleplay in kink scenes and depict in art up to and including torture and murder, and the practitioners understand full well that it's only okay because it isn't real. What is unique about fantasies involving kids in this respect?

[(Anonymous)]

shut the fuck up pedo

[(Anonymous)]

LOL, I have no interest in kids at all. Loli and shota are completely boring and unappealing to me. It's not a fantasy I have. That's why I don't get why it's so different from all these other fantasies I also don't have.

[(Anonymous)]

Shota, loli, and CP are all accurate terms to use

[philstar22]

Okay, then. Agree to disagree. I personally think CP should be reserved for things involving real people.
