-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Oh yeah in like older anime from the 80-90s most women looked more like adults and the environments tended to be post-childhood. With the economic depression and whole bubble burst, japanese men tended to romanticize their days as students and their freer youth so the ideal women became their classmates. It might also have been a subconsciously caused by the increasing emancipation of Japanese women. So young girls might seem more approachable and less demanding of them, unlike Japanese women who expect careers, a house and a car as well as their “own space”.
There is also something about how economic slumps tends to foster women/girls being considered more desirable at young ages, but I don’t remember the source!
Oh yeah, that figures, I think I might've heard that idea somewhere.
