Is there a community dedicated to anime where sexualization of characters is minimum and strictly no sexualization of minors (or minor looking "adults")? (jlai.lu)

I'm a casual anime fan, my main references being Ghibli, Full Metal Alchemist, Cowboy Bepop etc, in general, I like good art and good scenario. So I want to follow discussions about this type of anime.

However, I am very uncomfortable at the countless anime that sexualize minors (and minor looking supposedly adults) or over sexualized women.

Is there a community for this interest? I am too much of a casual to animate such community myself.

Edit: thank you everyone for the recommendations, I will look them up.

I don’t know the other ones.

Opening 1 and 2 for My Dress Up Darling. Obviously a fanservice show with all the dresses (and sometimes often sexy-dresses) involved. But since its female-gaze centered, its a different feel.

EDIT: Hmm, maybe I'm wrong. Wikipedia is claiming this is Seinen (intended for adult males). Either way, the fanservice here felt different to me compared to most. I'm not so much saying you should watch it, just that there's different "flavors" of fanservice.

Princess Jellyfish is also about people getting into fashion (or really, the main character learning to express herself) and is truly a Josei (Female Adult) oriented.

Like, there's "What Boys find Sexy fanservice" vs "How Girls want to feel Attractive fanservice". They're both fanservice but there's a difference. A lot of anime fanservice is the latter, if you know where to look.

There's also stuff like Sailor Moon, which turn into both. Which makes some people uncomfortable. But I think something like Princess Jellyfish is firmly in the latter and shouldn't get confused with the former.
