"loli" is a 4chanism for a sexual target who is underage
- konart 9y agoIt has nothing to do with 4chan though
- kw71 9y agoMy fault, 15+ years or so ago some kids who were interested in /b/ explained it to me, and this was a while before it was widely understood.
- Theizestooke 9y agonot 4chan but japanese manga & anime culture.
- konart 9y agoThe origin is russian though.
- chii 9y agoThe term is indeed from a russian book named lolita, but the term 'loli' has evolved via anime to mean something a bit different than the original.
- lmm 9y agoNot really; Nabokov was born in Russia but left at 19, and wrote Lolita in English while in the US.
- konart 9y agoWell... yeah, always forgetting about this.
- kronos29296 9y agoJust otaku stuff. not just 4chan
- westmeal 9y agoNot quite. It's actually used to refer to anime characters that have the physical characteristics of young girls. You know, weeaboo territory stuff. The theme has become increasingly prevalent in anime as of late.
