Hypersexualization - Tumblr Posts
the western view of geisha is so funny because it’s completely wrong
like

actual geisha:
real geisha are entertainers and performers, not sex workers. I think the term most people are looking for is oiran, high-ranking japanese courtesans. both are/were (in case of oiran) talented artists and successful businesswomen who deserve respect. but orientalism doesn’t care for cultural accuracy! just hypersexualization of East Asian women!
And sometimes hypersexuality can come with sex repulsion or asexuality. It can fluctuate too - hypersexuality flipping to sex repulsion while still feeling like you're only good for sex.
Fluctuations are a reaction to trauma too.
i wish there was more talk on tumblr about hypersexuality as a response to trauma, tbh. i see a lot of talk about asexuality and sex-repulsion due to trauma, but i rarely see people talk about the opposite. idk, its a difficult subject i suppose
Whether there's any truth to Ecimovic's claims, his livestream continues the trend of sexualizing a girl who until recently was considered under the age of consent in most states. At 13, Brown was put on W magazine's list of "Why TV Is Sexier Than Ever" and grown men online have frequently commented on her looks. A GQ profile from 2016 called her a "very grown-up child" and remarked on the appearance of her legs.
On social media, users lambasted Ecimovic for sexualizing a minor and condemned the public for its complicity in normalizing a culture that infuses young girls with adult sexuality while consequently punishing them for it.
When will it end?
