Why women watch anime? Aren't they repulsed by being costantly reduced to objects?

Its not the subject that bothers me about this thread, but your own dishonesty. You aren't doing "research" by trolling anime forums, you are just stirring shit. Even if you were, your personal feelings about this topic already come off way too strong. Anything you might discover would just be clouded by your own bias. That being said, its actually you that is subjecting these women, not the anime industry. You assume what is best for them, instead of letting them make their own decisions. If they want to watch these shows fine; if they don't then they won't.

Aren't you the one objectifying women when you assume that guys can't like anime girls for anything other than their bodies? Seems pretty sexist of you and downright degrading, if you ask me.

I see your avatar is from Steven Universe, an American cartoon whose protagonist is a fat, ugly and stupid man. In fact, men are constantly depicted as fat, ugly and stupid in American cartoons.

Why do you keep watching a type of media where men are constantly depicted as fat, ugly and stupid?

Instead of trying to find cartoons where men aren't depicted as fat, ugly and stupid, I think you should stop watching cartoons altogether.

This is why Japanese comic books injected with the power to move is the best medium of entertainment on this planet, because masterful pieces like Tokyo Ghoul depict the male form as the sleek and attractive pretty boys they are, with full respect to the gender. No sexism here.
every single one of my forum posts is dumb and invalid except for 1, I don't claim them it was a different person it was all fake

That's also why OP should stop watching Japanese cartoons as well

Nope, i'm just bored and have nothing better to do kek.
Though firstly i didn't plan on commenting but it started to get amusing.
I mean my first comment does say he needs to get better at baiting.
The beauty of humans is that they say one thing then do another, but at the same time that can also be their ugliest side.

Thanks for the replies i am getting (the ones i wanted from female users not the ones screaming "bait").


You're welcome.
Create a better thread next time.
Preferably don't use straw mans and ad hominems.
Also the ones screaming bait are right...Why? Cause it is lol.

So pretty much you only watch fanservice anime and you think thats how all anime are and you feel the need to get offended on behalf of teh wamenz?...

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself."

To take the bait for a moment:

It's not your job to tell women what we can and cannot like, you are being more sexist then any anime you have listed in this thread, get lost.

This thread question has come up a number of times in the past, through they've hardly went well. Perhaps it's the generalization thinking all members of a demographic should have a uniform sentiment regarding an entertainment medium? Perhaps it's the idea of making propositions and observations from a distance with neither the consideration or awareness of one's claims? Perhaps it's the repetition of similar threads, where such questions, difficult as they are to find conclusions to, breeds toxicity and ease of trolling amidst a perceived controversial subject extending into real world dialogues. I'm honestly not sure.

It's possible to cherry pick points and counterpoints using various anime as examples for hours on end, but I'm uncertain if a numerical value of abundance and/or scarcity is enough to justify any particular side of the argument, given that there were established sides to begin with. Or, perhaps they shouldn't be needed, as establishing sides could assume there were a finite number of solutions to how anime should portray its characters, male, female, or otherwise. But, I digress. This thread was derailed swiftly and with great force through baiting, claims of bait, and trolling all around, but hopefully there was some semblance of a sufficient answer found in all of this.
