Or a woman for that matter. This is a 30 year old man acting like he's 14.

I enjoy watching Japanese cartoons once in a while but holy shit just delete the entire industry if this dweeb is the target audience.

    This has to be what reeducation camps are made for, right? Do you think he could be taught that his porn addiction isn't a personality trait, or that forcing him to talk to other humans his age would eventually transform him into a productive member of society?

    "30 year old openly attracted to anime children" is one of the most disgusting types of people I can imagine, I wonder if there's any hope for them

      part of the issue is, there's no real therapy for peadophilia, every therapist is on their own, basically, and in a lot of jurisdictions peadophilia is one of those things that is not protected by patient-doctor confidentiality, so the only system equipped to handle you is the criminal justice system which is not ideal if we well and truly want to help people and not just butcher them. a factor that contributes to people not asking out for help in the first place

      the other issue is, there's some undigested collective anguish when it comes to youth. youthful qualities are obsessed over, even idolised, press is dedicated to "what the young people are doing" (even if it's low quality garbage), if you're a woman you're continually bombarded with shit about how to keep your natural youth against any kind of sane limits, most ads features youthful sexy people, and so on, but conversely if someone were to go "they're youthful therefore i'm jerking off thinking of them" we're suddenly shocked and appalled and wonder where this behaviour is coming from. virtually every porn website has a huge and very popular category that's just "barely legal", "just turned 18", etc. that's just socially acceptable peadophilia and is emblematic of a larger societal problem we have with youthfulness. peadophiles don't come down from UFOs, they're products of society and as such, without some kind of systemic solution, there won't be any end to this

        Thanks for the insight! "Productive member of society" was definitely a poor choice of words, he very possibly could be employed but is just really creepy. Idk, I just hope that in a more just society we won't have as many people with issues like that
