Tag me to explain it my abuse gets triggered. Ahegao takes its roots from Japanese anime that depicts children getting raped. There are many threads on that already, that's not what I want to explain here. What this thread is for is you to understand *why* that's harmful

The fetishisation and sexualisation of Asian people is deep rooted. I have experienced it my entire life. And I really do mean my whole life. As a child in school uniform I was repeatedly sexualised. I fit that Asian Schoolgirl look that is so popular.

So when we say ahegao is racist, that is harms us and sexualises us we don't say it based on nothing. It based on the fact that these images harm us. The fetishisation of Asian people leads to our abuse. To our rapes. To paedophiles preying on us.

And every time you tag me to explain this to someone I am reminded of this abuse. Every time I see a non Asian person use that face I am reminded of it. And constantly I am reminded that cartoon depictions of Asian people are held in higher importance than us ourselves.

The increase in popularity of anime, manga and hentai only lead to further sexualisation of me as a minor. When I was 15 I began to be groomed by a paedophile. He was white and he was racist. He told me he would never have kids with a non white person to "protect racial lines"

He called me his "yellow princess". He was a big anime fan. He watched hentai, lolicon and child pornography. He discussed making me get a lolicon tattoo when I was old enough. This man groomed me and abused me until he went to prison.

I have no doubt that his obsession with hentai and lolicon played a part in my abuse. I was that fantasy. I was an Asian schoolgirl. Ahegao wasn't popular then, but had it been I know for a fact it is a face he would have made me pull. Because it played into his desires.
