really don't want to get into a srs porn discussion but Afficher plus

why is it almost impossible to find naked anime women who aren't anatomically distorted or otherwise framed/depicted in slavish deference to the worst excesses of the male gaze?

i keep clicking on stuff from this anime porn bot that kindly links to source galleries and i'm overwhelmed by the monotony of ideas, poses, depictions, but most of all the abject objectification of (my) half of the human species. it feels dehumanizing

not that my lady werewolves were even porn but there was something lovely in those depictions, some humanity that is absent in the rote T&A that so dominates internet galleries

ofc artists left to own devices and encouraged by both testosterone and deeply patriarchal society are going to drift toward the extreme depictions now commonplace

i am just surprised that it's so possible to saturate/dominate the commons with a single idea/depiction.

i guess partly it's from looking in the wrong places, image boards like danbooru and the like. less caustic, more affirming art/porn/depictions are lurking in smaller enclaves ilike deviantart and such but fails to find circulation via the image board culture

anyway, big sticky feminism 101 topic i can't do justice to. just struck by it

@alyx I have no solution here but I guess it's not surprising given how objectifying most non-porn anime stuff tend to be.

We're talking about the fandom where "waifu" is a common/accepted concept, and since porn is rarely progressive already... :/

@Eramdam it's like that metaphor where fish have no idea they're swimming because being underwater is the totality of their experience / reality

once in a while i manage to poke my head above water, see some stars, and then feel bad and realize what a sorry state human culture is in when i'm dragged back under

there's your mixed metaphor for the day

@alyx Like, I read my BirdSite TL/AnimeFeminist and I see Good Ppl talking about anime in a respectful and well-thought way, and then at some point I come accross stuff like r/anime and I loose faith in all of this. Rinse and repeat.

reading this one might be tempted to think this is my first trip around the red light district but no, i'm a longtime perv and am totally jaded about most of the weird fetishes the internet promulgates

just something about this ultra-concentrated dose of male gaze via image bot that struck me / made me unhappy

@alyx I have this exact frustration quite often. The girls I've liked offline have had a variety of shapes and sizes, I wish porn girls could too.

There's a list of things that's unacceptable to have in male gaze porn - visible body hair, visible muscles, visible fat, visible cellulite, visible size (what is with this - outside of giantess porn girls have to be strictly smaller than their male counterparts (if it's het, but honestly even lesbian stuff tends to feature tiny ladies))
