Kinda researched about shotacon aka pedophiles

Anyways, when the genre shota/lolicon first came out surprisingly rates of child SA related lowered in Japan. People would say "that's good" but like... It's concerning. Why did it lower? Fiction affects reality and someone perception of life. Specially when Lolibait exist and some men out there actually dream of having a little sister just for that weird ass anime fantasy. So yeah, no it isn't good because at most facts. It's just unreported because grooming. Using weird sibling incest dynamics to normalise such weird behaviors. Example the use of "onii chan" Or it's weird culture around it. Again anyways, some readers said themselves said "it was a way to have fantasies" A way to cope with their "mental disorder"

Referring to the POCD (Pedophile-themed Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder) which is unwanted thoughts or intrusive. They're unwanted, this disorder is NOT a valid excuse to continue to consume such contents. Proshippers use this excuse a lot. to make one feel bad. Psychologist do not encourage them to consume illegal contents. It's one of the ethics to not encourage harmful behaviors and to break confidentiality if their patient is possibly dangerous.

I honestly don't have much to say, except from at least 50 ppl I interviewed 56% of them said it's just to live their fantasies and "cope" (Not csa victims coping) while 24% said didn't care and 20% said (CSA victims) makes them feel less what happened to them a less bad thing.
