Did these threads start because of those old "female gaze" shota threads or what?

Anon11/09/25, 10:05No.3998364

I was a gay shota OP who had sentimental boyfriendships but also crushes on my best friend… would I be allowed to exist in your utopia

>"straight male shota" >only posts the gayest pictures imaginable

>the website I think you're severely overestimating the impacts of shotacons in culture, anon. The VAST majority of people (outside of select internet forums like this board) are extremely averse to analyzing homoeroticism in boy dynamics. Homoeroticism isn't being "imposed" onto boys in any meaningful way. Shotacons are an extremely niche group - your "straight male appreciation for boyhood" isn't under attack.

I'm actually a fed btw

Anon11/11/25, 15:54No.3998815

I think a pretty straightforward way of figuring it out would be to reciprocate the boy pics and see how he responds if you send some more homoerotic ones. Not anything explicit, just stuff like lovey dovey KilluGon pics. If he doesn't sperg out like OP, then he is most likely both gay/bi and OK with that.

OP idk if you've watched the 2022 Belgium film "Close" by Lukas Dhont, since you sound American to me and I'm not sure that film was ever released there, but as I see you quote psychologist Niobe Way I think you'd like it, that film was inspired by her researchIt's also a very good film, though heart-crushing, I cried

Anon11/13/25, 16:35No.3999208

Are male Shotacons are female Shotacons more common? Common reasoning makes me think it's female Shotacons, but aren't most of these anime-adjacent communities male-dominated?

Anon11/13/25, 17:37No.3999219

Huh, really? I know there's a surprising amount of female doujin mangakas, but they were the majority at one point? Interesting . . .

Anon11/13/25, 18:49No.3999231

Anon, I think you made my point for me. I want boys to be able to freely be affectionate and intimate with each other without a care. As you said, your straight friends were able to do so because "they didn't care." What I'm proposing instead is a type of return to innocence of the mind. Go watch Close and see what destroyed Leo and Remi's friendship. Another girl imposed sexuality onto their friendship where it wasn't present because she saw their physical affection as homoerotic behavior. And so naturally, that put an artificial barrier between their friendship - which inevitably led to its demise (not going to spoil what happens, everyone should go see it). I was able to be physically affectionate, be half-naked, and share the same bed with other boys because sexuality was out of the equation, it's that type of relationship or "space" where there is a mutual understanding that this boy I'm with is the same as me (same body, same thoughts, same skin). Even in my adolescent friendships with other boys, we subconsciously acknowledged each other's heterosexuality in some of the more awkward moments we found ourselves in and shrugged it off. It wasn't until someone else brought up the possibility that our behavior could be perceived as "gay" that I was forced to recognize what "gay-coded" meant and was forced to say things like "no homo," or "gay" as a qualifier. As far as historical revisionism goes - yes, I absolutely do hate when revisionists like Boswell posit the fake narrative that David and Jonathon were gay. Just look at morons like Jeffrey P. Dennis who think Spongebob "present same-sex desire as ordinary and even vital."https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/01956050309603674That's because Boswell and Dennis see everything through a queer lens - how is that different from the majority of what happens in the main shota thread?

(OP) I really like your threads and your new website. I deeply get what you're trying to do here and I respect the ideas you are putting forward. Personally I have a shared appreciation of the boy aesthetic both in the erotic and the platonic sense, and I believe the two have always coexisted to some extent in human civilizations. The particular conditions and contingencies of contemporary western anthropology will mean that people will have a very polarized and neurotic outlook on this subject, to the point of considering it taboo, whereas this was not always the case. In fact I would even say that with this topic you are touching on some of the very most complex areas of human ontology, for the conception of beauty and alterity lie at the very heart of the shared human experience and never has a true consensus emerged to quell the flames of discourse thereof.Thus I understand that your ideas are likely to get misinterpreted which leads many people to lash out, out of ignorance and insecurity. I would argue that most people that react negatively to your ideas do so out of logic semantic misunderstandings, not out of true and deeply rooted ideological divergences. Regardless I think your intentions are noble and you should keep defending your position in spite of the cultural currents and the misconstrued perceptions that people might have on this particular topic. Your own lived experiences influenced you to become who you are and for you to think the way you do, and I think there is inherent value in that, regardless of anything else. Don't let anyone tell you that the essence of your being is wrong when you are defending it with such forward honesty and clarity.

Boys are perfect and easily my favorite thing in the entire world.

Anon11/17/25, 16:50No.3999888

This is interesting. I have noticed that only on /cm/ and /lit/ are people willing to display elevated forms of dialectics just for the love of the game. I'd wager the average IQ on these two boards is at least one standard deviation above the rest of this godforsaken website. The appreciation of the male aesthetic in a philosophical sense seems to be reserved for an intellectual elite these days.

Anon11/18/25, 08:40No.4000080

Honestly I'm an homo that enjoys both erotic and wholesome shotas and this thread is valid. It's grim but people need to realize how unloved and unappreciated boys are, i was just reading about how both fathers and mothers favor their daughters over their sons, fathers especially seem to be afraid to show love to their sons. This shitty world really needs to not be afraid of showing love to boys.

Anon11/18/25, 17:50No.4000142

i honestly don't get how feminism is to blame here, that seems like a thought-terminating cliche to me. not even radfems seem to have any problem with gay men and boys, and feminism definitely did a whole lot more to dismantle constricting gender roles than conservatives and reactionaries did.

Why so much seethe? I'm a homo sho enjoyer but i really don't get what's so wrong about these threads. I mean yeah, the naming could be better since straight shota implies shotas being paired with girls but that's it.

oh this is a based niche idea for a thread (as well as good taste in the thread pic). BL is hot and all but i never thought most of the guys i like are actually gay desu, it's just a fetish thing for me. there should be one for guys who aren't shotas too though.

Rewatching some classic cartoons and anime and found this scene from the 1960's Jonny Quest show (episode 9 "Double Danger" for those curious). I love how casual the show treats this moment between Jonny and his adopted brother Hadji. A commenter on a classic cartoon's forum I visited noted how this was actually pretty normal to show in media before all the hysteria started to take over regarding the body and sexuality.
