Anime women: is it wrong to think of them as attractive and cute?
Anime women are a phenomenon unto themselves: they represent the ideal woman and therefore tend to be more attractive than girls in real life. They offer the best of both worlds – blessed with great looks and an endearing personality. Who wouldn’t find the curvy hourglass figure of an anime girl, her large breasts and a refined feminine personality attractive?
Why would you find them hot and cute?
In a perfect world, all girls would be attractive and cute with endearing personalities, and men of all ages wouldn’t worry about a shortage of beautiful girls, or being a perfect ten years old. Unfortunately, that’s not the case – in the dating world, there are so-called “alpha males” and “bad boys” who date the most beautiful females, leaving the less-than-ideal girls to betas and omegas. Also, men are expected to be the initiators of the relationship. Unfortunately, there are guys who are unlucky when it comes to relationships, especially among the shy and those who are repeatedly rejected.
This is where anime girls come in; they are designed to be perfect. Like most types of animation, anime was designed to immerse its audience in an alternate world. Beauty is subjective, so there is a wide variety of girls to suit one’s interests. Like big breasted girls, or what about the little sister kind of girl? What about tsundere girls, or girls who start out mean and eventually cheer up on you? Do you have a fetish for ponytails? There is a wide variety of anime girls for anyone.
Moe (mo-eh) is a concept found in Japanese anime and refers to a sense of desire among the audience. A female anime character can be considered moe due to her subjective appeal among her audience; this attraction would make one want her: the desire to hang out with her, the desire to be her boyfriend, the desire to marry her, or even the desire to be her father. If she gets emotional, we want to be with her to comfort her, to tell her that it is okay, that we are there for her.
Anime girls allow us to experience a fantasy like no other. Visual novels (VN) are a popular game genre in Japan, usually featuring attractive anime girls and a single male protagonist aiming to win a girl’s heart. These girls don’t judge; They don’t care how you look or how you act, even if you’re extremely shy. A girl doesn’t care if you are an alpha or beta male, or even an omega male. All he would like to do is date you and even become your boyfriend in the end.
Why wouldn’t you find them hot and cute?
One obvious reason you may not find them attractive and cute is that, like cartoons, anime is drawn and it is wrong to be sexually attracted “to the pixels on a screen.” Society pressures you to like real girls and not cartoon girls; otherwise, you are considered a loser. Anime girls are not real and you cannot physically hug, kiss or even have sex with them. Even alpha males who are very successful with real girls can tell you as such to “be a man” and get a real girlfriend.
Feminism has found women shameful to sexualize in various mediums, from something innocent like showing cleavage to full-blown nudity. Due to the nature of anime girls, they can be considered sexist and objective. You have the ubiquitous photo of panties, harem anime, big-breasted girls, and even bikini “wardrobe malfunction”; all of them can be considered sexist and objective.
Refutation
To think that anime girls are attractive and cute is a harmless fantasy – such fantasies provide those who have a hard time achieving the things they want in life. Even if you can’t physically be there for them, the vicarious experience makes it almost seem like it’s real thanks to moe. It is not about objectifying the female sex, because anime girls are complex as if they were real girls with personalities and emotions. Furthermore, sexuality has been with us since the rise of man and has been depicted in many works of art. It shouldn’t be embarrassing to appreciate an artistic medium.
Let your fantasies run wild. Anime girls can be so hot and cute compared to real girls.
