I was reading a pretty-okay article about doujin circles from 1996 and the writer said the cons were filled with "virginal girls." Why oh why do you need to weigh in on their sex lives when saying young girls write their own manga? I also hate the absolutely disgusting look so many people in america take with Japanese school girls. Not saying Japan is totally innocent here, but the whole "yeah all Japanese school girls are super-sexualised. I know because every piece of Japanese culture I look at contains sexualized children" and never realise that this is a statement on their own failure.

      real cool to just ignore the entire BL genre. Jolyne is neither a minor in age or really depicted as schoolgirlish. Nobara takes of her jacket to reveal a shirt, not really that sexual. The rest of these are somewhat matters of interpretation or taste, so I can't really debate it.
