    If you want to watch shows that don’t sexualize, don’t watch show that do. While anime as a genre certainly has a higher rate than others, it’s not alone.

      But if we all stop watching they will have no reason to produce anymore . And what other genre have this problem i am tv/movie junkie and have never seen the issue elsewhere the only time children are sexualised there is when it is potrayed as abuse.

            You’re right. This was going to be part of my rant about reddit in your other post but I knew it would be an unpopular observation. I was scrolling reddit a few weeks back and found this. The character is canonically a high schooler, and that is definitely “non-sexual” sexualization. I was buried for saying it was gross. People are not ready to address this issue, here or elsewhere. I think it hurts too much for the people who have been hurt by it, and too many others actively participate and enjoy it, which…
