At this point it barely means anything because basically any anime girl gets accused of being "loli" by people who hate it. The way that Australia banned small boobs on adult women to prevent child porn.
Generally its just anime girls who look and/or are quite young, which happens alot because the Japs are weird and need all their media centered on the youth they wish they could go back to.
I believe the official ruling was under a certain size girls couldn't appear in porn, because kids only have small boobs and clearly anyone who likes small boobs are pedos you see.
That's how vague and ill defined "loli" has become in most discourse regarding it. To the people like those above whining about it, every anime that has a short girl or an "uwu" cute girl in it is loli shit.
It is absolutely infuriating. Pardon my spergout for a moment, but in Japanese discourse, the term is very much still reserved for pre-pubescent girls. No one will call your average JK a loli unless she is ridiculously small for her age. Meanwhile, western discourse has slowly pushed the perceived meaning in English as being "any anime girl who even remotely looks like she is probably under 18." No. That is not what the word means. Loli is not synonymous with "girl who is a minor."
Can someone explain to me what “loli” refers to? My anime knowledge isn’t as great as others here.
