Shoujo = girls manga.

In order to remain in publication, any given manga series must meet X (where "X" is the minimum revenue for the publisher to continue with the series) amount of sales.

Therefore, if shoujo manga is designed specifically for girls, and all manga must satisfy a certain sales bracket, we can assume that Shoujo manga, rather than attempting to "guide" or "control" the choices made by young females, is, in quite the opposite fashion, directly subject to the (ever-changing) whims of said demographic.

If shoujo manga is a subject of the preference of its demographic, then the contents of shoujo manga that are successfully published are, most probably, effective in catering to the choices and desires of young female readers.

If shoujo manga are indeed obeying the whims of these readers, then it would, in fact, indicate that such arguments as "why is it only maledom" and "they're teaching teenage girls to be sluts" are, in fact the only true attempts in this situation to "control" what this demographic thinks and desires. If you think that this type of material isn't what should turn girls on, then work to convince your children that they should be aroused by something else.

They chastise and feminize men, while "liberating" women and telling them to act smutty.

And Japan's population continues to plummet and they wonder why.

I blame the UN.

The people here "do not want your ugly children or you" and "you are no match for our 2D Goddesses."

"The thought that we want you is outrageous, offensive, and egotistical. I don't know what these hags see in themselves or their phugly children but I don't see it, nor do I want it."

You can work and work to ban loli, fetishes, hentai and succeed. The the real rapists and pedifiles will still be out there.
