"Obaa-chan, why do you live alone? Has your husband passed away?"
"No... I never had a husband... or the chance for one."
"I'm sorry to hear that... if you don't mind us asking, what do you mean?"
"Well, when I was young and had the beauty of youth, I was short, and a little less well-endowed compared to other young women... maybe it was due to poor nutrition, maybe it was genetic... Strangely, there were hardly any media or games showing women with my body type... since society always showed all these tall and well-endowed women in an amazing and glamorous manner, I felt insecure, and some of them even made fun of me for 'not being enough of a woman...' ...it's not my fault, it's not as if I could have changed any of those things..."
"But surely there were some guys that didn't mind your body type, right?"
"Yes, but they were shamed by society for liking people with my body type, and eventually they couldn't take the pressure and left... I tried reaching out to them myself, but no man would be caught dead being seen beside me in public for fear of being shamed as well... eventually, as I aged, I lost the beauty of youth, and resigned myself to a lonely life...
"How tragic..."
"...yes. Clearly it was my fault for being born with the wrong body type... that made me too stupid to think for myself, unlike those who are tall and well-endowed... I should've roped myself from the beginning..."
Like it or not, weebs are entering Cup Sizes of Consent territory now. On top of the "Height of Consent" and "Face of Consent" rules, this rule seems to be "If you're not at least a C, you can't consent to the D."
Said VN by u/Argent_OU is releasing on an smaller alternate storefront Itch.io (link NSFW) if you'd like to support probably the first and last game they'll make with petite characters, since such actions by Steam's Game Approval Committee will encourage future self-censorship in character designs from passionate game devs that don't wanna starve.
And this dude was plenty passionate - enough to put his money where his passion was, even to the point of exhausting his savings.
Anyway, everyone knows that different body shapes and sizes don't exist in reality, clearl-
Well, even if they do for genetic and environmental reasons, God forbid people in reality with these body types are depicted in games.
...but apparently 5 different "Sex With Hitler (link NSFW)" titles in the Steam store is perfectly fine as long as the girls are ~~doubleplusgood~~ tall and/or busty.

I think it's interesting that this post is being downvoted. I didn't know there were so many bigots on Lemmy
