Honest in recognizing males, especially youths, are very interested in female bodies. And so they shamelessly exploit that interest in anime. Domestic animation expressly for people older than kids doesn't have a very strong mainstream tradition in the West and thus its understandable it can't be used as such a statistically relevant object of comparison to gauge the general opinion of our (animation) entertainment business.

Well, I know I wouldn't want to watch some shows if some older people could be looking over my shoulder at the screen. They would hardly understand the need for needlessly scantily clad females...
