We are men and women. As children we are our full potential. As the elderly we become ghosts of ourselves. This is reflected in art and fiction.
Art is innately sexual if its theme is girls. This is whether the art is wholesome or not... or whether the artist is male or female. The sexuality is sexy whether erotic or not. It tends to be sexier if tasteful, actually.
Art is only sexual if homosexual if its theme is boys. This is whether the context is about sex or not... or whether the artist is male or female. The sexuality is unnatural, actually, even if true to reality.
Art as fiction is more specific, whether that fiction is prose, shows, movies or video games.
A little boy is the protagonist of a fantasy adventure for only one of two reasons. Either the storyteller imagines himself or his son as the hero... or he is a pederast, active or not.
A little girl is the protagonist of a fantasy adventure for only one of two reasons, both of them sexual. The story is about her maturing either way.

Boys take to adventure more readily, since it is already in their nature. Girls must overcome their fear of such things, but are more emotionally prepared for what may come. It tends to be better when both work together.
ReplyDeleteSo true. By default, the same story is either an adventure story or a horror story based on whether the protagonist is a boy or girl.
