I think "I can single handedly kill all the bad guys with poor aim" is more easily recognized as fiction than "I get to fuck all the girls because that's what studs like me do".
Not sure what else to say other than: Huh?
That doesn't remotely make sense to me. We are talking about kids, not about mental retards in the medical sense, are we?
As a culture, we generally criticize real life violence. The message is fairly clear (ok in fiction, not ok in reality). However, sex is celebrated in real life, meaning it's a lot less black and white deciding what's ok.
Again: Huh?
When reading such arguments I can only wonder what kind of kids the author is around, and whether he has lost all memory of his own youth (sorry, not meant as personal attack).
Obviously a minor below a certain age should not be exposed to either. However, by the teen years, when boys commonly gain access to both and consume large quantities of both, most seem to handle it really well.
Making an artificial distinction there just doesn't make sense to me.
If a kid develops behavioral patterns based on "because that's what studs like me do" (either in a sexual or a violent way) then that kid has deeper problems entirely unrelated to the kind of content that he prefers.
- tedunangst 15y agoIt's really hard to explain without just restating the same thing. From my soapbox, it appears as if fictional sex is more likely to be portrayed as representative.
