Previous anon here (about the l0li question)—I feel like I’m the only person to have ever gone FtL (fujo to l0licon, from consuming almost exclusively yaoi over the years to now consuming a lot of moe stuff) I’ve sort of become hyper aware of a lot of misogyny in the fan space…it’s hard to find female fans of this stuff, partially because they are fewer, but also because they tend to be quieter usually. I’ve also come to realize that, on the Japanese side of things, a lot of them are just straight up…into that, irl. Like probably ‘nonoffending,’ but it’s been an eye opener. I follow this one JP female artist and she tweets a lot of kind of mildly-to-moderately concerning stuff about her ‘girl’ obsession, talking about how she likes to watch them from afar and go to young idol concerts and whatnot, but I genuinely can’t tell if she’s kinda playing it up because she also tweets a lot of crazy stuff about her period clots and ovulation. A lot of JP tweets have that deadpan humor I can’t always pick up on. Anyways there’s a lot of nuance to this topic, and witnessing these sort of things directly from JP artists and such made me feel a little conflicted! My GOAT would never though.
Ooh it's interesting to hear your experience from this side of the Las Loliconettes so to speak. (FTL made me lol tho....faster than light? XD) I def think it's true a lot of the more/Loli female fans I think who are out there tend to want to be more dl for obvious reasons, that makes some sense. I do remember hearing something about a fujo to Loli or vice versa pipeline but I forget which direction it went??
I can see where the discomfort would come from... I can get pretty uncomfortable when I can't tell where the line between someone's posting bit or roleplay/fantasy posting and "real" ideas are, and there are def boundaries for myself I tend to draw when it comes to some things. I know in da "proship" spaces it's not popular to talk about since there's a lot of slander that can easily be thrown about but it's good to be aware (both of slander and of potentially uncomfortable situations.) idk ur person but that does sound kind of concerning just from my end so idk 😶
