Hot take. I think the situation with bilibili editing the dragon maid characters breasts to be smaller is blatant misogyny. People editing somebody’s horny art to have smaller breasts is misogyny. I don’t care if the breasts were made to be big for sexual reasons. People are sending a message to women with huge breasts that they are inherently sexual, and thus need to be edited out.
Editing a depiction of a character’s body to make it more “acceptable” to you is body shaming. Full Stop.
It is saying “this body type is not acceptable”.
It is saying “this body type is inherently sexual.”
It is body shaming.
Also I personally believe it is always wrong to edit another artist’s work to make it more “acceptable” to you in general.
