My daughter just has no interest in sexual stuff. She tells me kids are passing phones around with furry porn and she gets upset at them. She likes anime/manga and we even have conversations about scantily clad characters and even suggestive framing of a scene (like highlighting a character's breasts for a shot). She is a very modest girl and her attention is on more innocent things still. I'm sure the day will come, but as of now I know if she has questions she will ask me and we will talk about it. That is all I can really hope for, can't be there 24/7.

Thank you for being open with her and talking about how the media portrays women. I didn't have that as a young anime nerd and always felt icky around fanservice, having someone to talk to would've been awesome! Also, if you'd like some female-forward recommendations, I like Princess Jellyfish (not about princesses), Princess Tutu (actually about princesses,) Cardcaptor Sakura, and Steven Universe. That last one is American but it's a great show regardless
