    Any media that depicts children as sexual is promoting pedophilia

    What a terrible take. The same way that violent video games promote violence and is harmful to children?

    Children are not sexual

    No children are involved

    Catering to their fantasies emboldens them to act.

    There is 0 evidence of this, and some evidence to the contrary. Having an outlet that involves 0 victims is beneficial. But even still, there are people that are into this that have 0 interest in actual children. Because it’s just a fantasy, the same way that people have rape fantasies.
