Yep.Cultures way back to like...The ottoman empire have had 'femboys'. Hell the ancient greeks had them too. They weirdly keep popping up in history.
Japan just made it popular on a wider basis. Anime does that

Dude, Ranma was not a femboi. Maybe try watching the show. The whole joke was that he continued to act like a boy even when he was turned into a girl.I am pretty sure Japan has had fembois exist for a LONG time before it popularized in thr west.
When did Remna 1/2 come out?
I mean, anime such as Naruto, Black Butler, Full Metal Alchemist, Inuyasha, Getbackers, hell Macross has one...That it does. So does England. I swear, being an island nation messes with people's heads culturally.
While I am not usually a fan of censor ship, I do think that some kinds of anime should be or just not released in the USA. I think that obscenity should not be covered by freedom of speech, at least to some extent. I've seen too much of how the slippery slope is real.
No I know that.Dude, Ranma was not a femboi. Maybe try watching the show. The whole joke was that he continued to act like a boy even when he was turned into a girl.
I mean judging from my experience on 4chan, the actual increase in femboys and whatnot is because a lot of men are so fucking sick and tired that they'd rather pretend being an idealized girl instead of dealing with them. As absurd as that sounds.
No, it's not absurd at all.
When you spend your formative years bombarded by 'women are wonderful' messaging in media, when girls are given favoritism by a lot of authority figures, when you yourself see attractive girls as desireable, and it's in vogue to constantly shit on men in leftist social circles?
No crap a lot of guys who hear 'you too can be a woman!' and go 'gosh, that sounds so much better than what I get!'
It's tragic, but it's an entirely predictable result.

All of these are some of the most popular or oldest anime America has had access to.
Some goong back to 90s.
black butler is the only one on this list i know least about, but the rest are all Shonen or sci fi ones.
it has become a trope in Japan for them to be added.
In some of the animes I talked about, invovled more then corssdressing.For me, it depends somewhat on how it's being portrayed.
In FMA, cross-dressing was done once, was part of a scheme to get around being spied on, was a brief incident and was semi-played for comedy when Mustang realized who he was in fact talking to.
Then you have stuff like the Final Fantasy 7 Part 1 remake (I never played or watched the original game, so I cannot comment on it or how much this was a change). Again, it's done for the sake of sneaking around, but it's much more extended and the treatment by the characters towards it are much different when compared to FMA. And worse, more accepting.
Well, i'm not familar enough with those to make a judgement.In some of the animes I talked about, invovled more then corssdressing.
Characters that based on outward appereance alone, would be identified as female.
Alfonso from Fate for example.
It is common though.Well, i'm not familar enough with those to make a judgement.
Which tends not to be okay in my eyes.
Envy from FMA barely gets a pass from me due to being a horrible individual -thus not the sort of person one wants to emulate- and an inhuman shapeshifter. There might also be other factors i just am not thinking about.
In anime the approach to this sort of gender bending is implicitly awkward, humorous, mocking even, usually to set up funny situations, as opposed to the western leftist one that nears on victimhood based nobilitation, "protected groups" that need to be protected from oppression and isms.
It is common though.
With like I said, Macross having such a trope. The series that has fucking missile spam.
In all the series I mentioned, outside of a few, feminine men are common.
If you want we can even look at masculine series like JJBA.
Giorrno and plenty of characters in it have a effeminate look to it
Adding caveats to freedom of speech just makes it obvious that the only speech you actually believe should be free, is your own; and you can fuck right the hell off with that authoritarian bullshit.That it does. So does England. I swear, being an island nation messes with people's heads culturally.

Stop blaming gays for this shit. Or even the trans. No, this is because degenerate socialists who wanna be gay/trans for clout, or just claim to be allies. And degenerate people (who are created because they are taught degeneracy by the school system) who want a shield behind which they can mistreat kids while feeling virtuous. This miseducation of kids, because that's what it is, has been happening for decades, it's just more obvious now as it's happening faster.Still degenerate though. We can't tolerate this. We already made too much of a mistake with the homosexuals. And we're only starting to push back against the troons.
Neither was hate speech. Try again. If you want to ditch obscenity, you are also going to allow them to call hate speech obscene, and they'll decide to police that instead of porn. Seriously, this isn't hard: government is a monkey's paw. Stop wishing on it.Obscenity was not considered free speech until the 1970's. Everything has gone down hill from there.
"Obscenity" meaning whatever you personally consider obscene; which I've got a feeling I'd vehemently disagree with. Also, if this is you being nowhere near as authoritative or restrictive as you could go, then I don't trust you to keep choosing not to slide down that "slippery slope" once your ideas gain traction; so you'll forgive me for choosing to nip them in the bud now.Obscenity was not considered free speech until the 1970's.

And trust me, this is nowhere near as authoritative or restrictive as I could go. I'm choosing not to.

You are ignorant of history if you think crushing the gays will do anything to stop the other side.Then I will say this. you better hope to God its people like me who win the culture war.
Because there's far, far worse than me and they'll win 5 to 10 years after comparative moderates like me have lost.

During the democrats best, most socialist years, the gays were crushed. More, gays rapidly normalized up until around 2016. The issue was all the socialists that wanted to use this as a wedge issue, and finally turned it into one. Socialists win finding or making holes in the fabric of America, then patching them with rotten socialism that contaminates what's around them. But a hole in America was nearly patched with close enough family values before the socialists freaked out and started sabotaging any attempt at a fix. If you don't properly ID the enemy, you will set up socialists for a long term win.
