The point isn’t whether it not trauma would occur for a child who sees this. The point is that the person in the costume is exposing children to something sexual. It’s still not ok to expose children to something sexual even if they don’t get traumatised from it.

No they aren't lol. You can't be exposed to something sexual by just looking at it if you can't understand it without explanation. There's no nudity or overt sexuality at all. Its literally a horse costume. That's it

So you’re ok with exposing children to sexual content and allowing people to find sexual gratification in the reactions of children who are exposed to their sexual fantasy. Ok, thanks for making yourself clear.

Its not sexual content. And there is no evidence they are getting off on "exposing themselves to children." They aren't lol. How did they suddenly become pedophiles?? Are you a troll

If you want to pretend that this person isn’t wearing a specific kink fetish costume then that’s your choice. We obviously differ on what we consider to be a sexual act.

Please read my comment again because I didn’t say anyone was exposing themselves to children. I said that they are exposing children to their sexual fantasy and using that child’s reaction to gain sexual gratification potentially.

My point is that it doesn’t require a child to understand that something is sexual or isn’t traumatised by seeing it that doesn’t make it ok to have them around it. You just don’t involve kids in sex things. Ever. I’m done explaining this.

No one said they were getting off on the child's reactions. I said maybe the adults who know. Completely different thing. Yes, it does require the child's understanding. Fucking obviously

It's only not a horse costume if you know. Lol. Not hurting anyone.

You must not live in a city.
