https://www.researchgate.net/publication/360206602_I_am_not_alone_-_we_are_all_alone_Using_masturbation_as_an_ethnographic_method_in_research_on_shota_subculture_in_Japan

It was retracted, weirdly enough

[–] Eatspancakes84@lemmy.world 23 points 10 months ago

That doesn’t make any sense. Was he faking it? This opens so many questions!

[–] KoalaUnknown@lemmy.world 21 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

It seems it was taken down due to “public outrage”.

An article about its takedown

[–] BodyBySisyphus@hexbear.net 18 points 10 months ago (3 children)

There was, to put it mildly, a big brouhaha when this paper was published.

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 12 points 10 months ago

I wonder if he ended up on the Sex Offenders Register. The UK can be quite aggressive in putting people on it: one guy ended up on it for engaging in a sex act with his bicycle in a hotel room when a cleaner walked in on him.

i wonder what might have caused him to become single?

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

What, scientific institutions play moralist? Not like he hurts anyone.

[–] Comment105@lemm.ee 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

These are literally comics for pedophiles.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Stigmatising pedophiles again.

[–] lowleveldata@programming.dev 6 points 10 months ago

TBH this is a lost to humanity as a whole

[–] TankieTanuki@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago

Microbiology

Huh?

[–] jabathekek@sopuli.xyz 67 points 10 months ago

anon gets into academia

[–] m_f@midwest.social 48 points 10 months ago

Some good !academiagonewild@lemmy.world material there

[–] lvxferre@mander.xyz 46 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Some write papers full of mental masturbation.

This guy simply skipped the "mental" part.

[–] MBM@lemmings.world 12 points 10 months ago

He's mental enough as is

Someone got told their topic wasn't original enough and took that as a challenge.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 6 points 10 months ago

"Okay, do you have any suggestions for a new topic?"

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 23 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I've read enough journal articles to know this might not be fake

[–] sunoc@sh.itjust.works 22 points 10 months ago

That Boku no Pico joke is going way too far.

[–] Saoirse@hexbear.net 21 points 10 months ago

Would you believe he got kicked out of school and had to leave the country to avoid being investigated after this? begone

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 14 points 10 months ago

😳

[–] bunnyBoy@pawb.social 12 points 10 months ago

Apparently he wrote another shota paper in June of this year XD

Impossibly Cute Boys The Healing Power of Shota Comics in Japan

Madlad
