    lol they’re not arguing against because it’s a pointless measure

    you’re confusing picking your fights with being supportive

      If children sex dolls are readily available it risks normalizing the concept of sex with children. Both for potential pedophiles as well as children who browse shein, might get the impression that adults having sex with children is a thing.

      It absolutely has a point, the point being manufacturing and selling sex toys that look like children is absolutely disgusting.

      And picking your battles doesn’t typically mean arguing against the law being passed on the Internet.

            Having sex with a doll also only involves grown adults.

            You justified the ban with it being disgusting so I repeat the question: Why not ban scat fetish then as well?

              Adults doing weird things with other adults is fine with me.

              Adults having sex with something intended to represent a child? Hell no. Selling these things is the thin end of the wedge in my view.

                Adult men having sex with adult women is fine with me.

                Adult men having sex with another man? Hell no. Engaging in that is the thin end of the wedge in my view.

                Why is this not a valid reason to ban homosexuality but it’s good enough to ban sex dolls?

                  I have far better things to do with my time than explain why depicting sex with children is a bad thing to a stranger on the Internet.

                    You seem to have plenty of time for moral grandstanding, but the second someone asks you to make a coherent argument, time’s suddenly up.

                    “Disgusting, you’re probably a pedophile, I don’t care that there’s no victim, it’s obvious so I don’t need to explain it” has been your entire contribution so far. If you don’t care about trying to change anyone’s mind, then I don’t know what you’re even doing here besides just making noise.

        ah, the point is that it’s disgusting, thanks for confirming the emptiness of the argument

        next time I’m before an unflushed toilet I’ll call the authorities
