Should half naked pictures of anime characters be marked NSFW on Lemmy? (lemmy.world)

I’m talking about this sort of thing. Like clearly I wouldn’t want someone to see that on my phone in the office or when I’m sat on a bus.

However there seems be a lot of these that aren’t filtered out by nsfw settings, when a similar picture of a woman would be, so it seems this is a deliberate feature I might not be understanding.

Discuss.

Why do these anime girls always look like they're in their teens? Extremely creepy.

[–] Urist@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

The most optimistic explanation I have been able to arrive at is that they are less intimidating for fragile male egos. However, I concur wholeheartedly: Extremely creepy.

[–] lath@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Because the target audience is usually teens.

Yes. All academic points aside, it's not socially-acceptable to view stuff like this in public.

Probably yes. As long as it's something that would reasonably not be ok to watch in public/family/work environment, it's always better to be on the cautious side.

There's a setting to just not blur NSFW tagged content, for people that are not concerned.
