“so proud of the ppl here realizing it’s the good thing to do since we know for a fact, women/girls are overly sexualized in animes and Japanese culture. They shouldn’t even be sexualized first of all”

“everyone is saying that chinese shouldn’t censor boobs because its just natural lmao. but thats not the point. i think what china is trying to do is make it so that viewers wont sexualize woman as much. with anime so ecchi these days, it greatly impacts the viewers thoughts”

“Instead of accustoming people to the fact that bodies are different, that this is the norm and that this should be treated adequately – they will only increase people’s sexual tension and inadequate reaction in real life It’s not about sexuality, it’s about inappropriate behavior”
