Loli has 3 definitions, arranged according to popularity. (Source at the
bottom)
1. Loli - Young girl/Young-looking girl; age neutral; SFW by default. Its also used to describe a body type, age is ignored.
Its an abbreviation of Japanese colloquial word "Lolita", which has exactly the same meaning defined above. (Don't confuse it with the twisted American
definition of "Lolita".)
2. Loli - Abbreviation of Lolita Fashion. example: goth-loli, wa-loli, hime-loli, etc.
The 'Lolita' in Lolita fashion is also derived from the same 'Lolita' defined in (1). Its a victorian style fashion mixed with Japan's kawaii culture.
3. Loli - Abbreviation of lolicon (Lolita Complex), which is an attraction to loli(1). The attraction can be non-sexual, or sexual. Barely anyone uses 'loli' as 'lolicon', to the point that no one actually knows that this
definition even exist. Only used in a very specific context, or very 'special' kind of people.
Hentai sites doesn't actually use this
definition in their tags, they use the first definition. Ironically, this is used by 'special' people in
twitter,
tiktok, and even
facebook, just to fit their narrative that this word is a 'bad/derogatory' word, and will only spread this definition to others, ignoring the first and second definition.
