the root cause of this is growing up when feminism is dominant, during the height of metoo, and during a time when people are hysteric about groomers and desperate to cancel anyone and everyone over it. it's happened to some of my friends, shit like "he was 19 and flirted with a 17 year old on discord"
these guys are basically ashamed of being straight men who like women, that's why they call any man who isn't ashamed about it a gooner, that's why they constantly have to signal how they like things like older women, virtually all young guys live in fear of getting called a "pdf file", it doesn't help that you'll get called that if you like cartoon women because suddenly fictional age matters too. god forbid you think marin kitagawa (picrel) because she's canonically 15 even though she's literally from an ecchi anime aka a fictional fucking character
