"Let it be very clear, then, that when the church preaches social justice, equality, and human dignity; when the church defends those who suffer poverty or violence, this is not subversive nor is it Marxism. This is the authentic magisterium of the church.

If you hide a body point and make it taboo it will become an absolutely massive kink to people.

For example, napes in Japan are taboo to the point of raised hair (ponytails) being banned now in some schools. Rather than make the situation better this makes it much worse at it becomes even more highly sexualised.

The way to desexualise something is actually to normalise it in all settings, to make it as utterly mundane as possible.

Luckily Japan doesn’t have pedophilia problem and schoolgirls won’t suffer from creeps fantasizing about their necks on the subway home
