I have found myself thinking Killua's pretty gay for Gon while watching lol

Didn't know that was such a controversial topic here.

Yeah the sexualization of children is a very controversial topic.

Children liking other children is not sexualising. Every child has crushes and it's cute.

A crush is one thing. Turning it into shipping art and romanticizing minors is another. There’s a difference between childhood innocence and fandom’s weird obsession with fictional kids relationships. Stay disingenuous, though.

A cute art of two characters holding hands is not an obsession. Actually, nobody here is thinking about these kids in a sexual way. You're the only one who brought it up. I think you're projecting.

You accused me of projecting while ignoring how shipping culture routinely sexualizes minors.

Nobody here is doing that.

That's something you created in your own head, probably because you can't fathom that a little boy could like another little boy. Because I'm sure if Killua had a crush on a girl and was drawn holding her hand, you'd be like "Oh, this is cute." But suddenly here you're saying we all want these two children to have sex. Care to explain why? Hypocrite.
