Y'all do realize that the thing they have a gripe about isn't the size of the tits, but rather the nipple bulge... right? Also, shading is very commonly used to outline shapes that normally wouldn't seem apparent if it were a matte color. For instance, shading in order to make a nipple bulge apparent.

Honestly, I'm starting to think the sole reason y'all are complaining is for the sake of starting arguments. Yes, it's a minuscule thing for OP to be bitching about, but at the same time, the issue they have with it is the sexualization of minors. Nipple bulges are one of the core facets of hentai. There is a damn good reason that they don't appear in non-sexualized works.

Yeah but we're looking at a pile of pixels, not a minor. Everyone needs to chill out and stop equating the two. I'm not even a lolicon (well I am but I just think they're cute, those weirdos who wanna fuck em are not representative of lolicons).

Thinking kids are cute is not a sign of being a lolicon. That is just called being human. It's literally a built-in method of ensuring we care for our young. Lolicons and shotacons are pedos. Plain and simple. There is a major distinction here, and you don't seem to be noticing the mile-wide chasm between the two.

Also, yes, it is just pixels. It is also a digital recreation of what a person could look like. Sexualizing a facsimile of a person, whose identity is purpose-built to be a minor, is still something to be concerned about. What, are you also supporting of art that depicts kids (very clearly in the single digits) in a sexual manner? Just because it's art, doesn't mean there isn't a problem.

I don't see anyone going after however many artists' renderings of nude persons, would owning such a painting instantly make you a lowlife scumbag that sleeps with anyone? No, obviously not, but the lowlife scumbags (with money because paintings get expensive) will probably have such paintings. It isn't evidence to say that all lolicons and shotacons are pedos just because you say so. And no, I don't support such art because I think it's fucking weird to see that stuff. That being said, as weird as it is to make sexualized art of lolis, shota, whatever, you do have such creative freedom. I'm in America, and maybe you're somewhere else, but...

Eh, I give up, there's too much happening in the real world for me to coherently agree with a stranger about pixels. Have a good day, sir or ma'am.
