I am shocked so many people like Game of Thrones considering all of the mindless rape, constant naked female props, boring dialogue, and racism in the show. I watched a couple episodes a few years back and had to stop when they introduced Khaleesi's character, it was comically offensive imo. Was expecting something like LOTR instead of a white men and such feminist khaleesi power tripping and having sex: the series. Unless I'm missing something, this was my impression of GOT.

I don't know how much of an unpopular opinion this really is, but I saw farmers going bananas over this matter so.. maybe?
Anyway, I like the idea of a black Hermione? I think it's cute and really doesn't change the plot at all. Now, I do think it's stupid that JK was retconing like mad ("I only ever said she had messy hair, never said directly that she was white!"), she could've just said something like "Oh, yeah, a black version of my character is also cool", but anyway I digress. Call me tumblr or whatever but it's cool to see a bit of diversity within the main trio (heck, main group, even, with Luna and Neville and such) and it could be a nice role model for young black girls.
Also, I never liked Emma Watson and tbqf, I think she's kinda ugly. Maybe that's the true unpopular opinion lol

Anime is really creepy and their behaviour is so odd. Jap comedy is boring and generally relies on exaggeration of facial expressions and the character's reaction to a situation rather than an actual joke.
The fanservice in some of them is also just incredibly fucking weird. I checked out No Game No Life because it was popular and they were zooming into the little girl's panties. How is this a popular anime? Not to mention the 1000's of years old lolis. Girls in shounens are just annoying props used to show their "assets". Girl's voices are high pitched and incredibly annoying to me as well. I hate anime cliches more than anything in this entire world, they're so fucking lame.
Not to say that there aren't any good anime, I enjoyed FMA and Death Note when I watched those with my sisters. Just… whats the appeal of the shit anime that ships every season? Please help me understand.
Anonymous 4566
>>4565Most main anime really are fanservice pandering shit because studios have to pay their bills and they need to cater to the lowest denominator, so yeah. Usually anime was better when I was younger because it was "filtered out" until it came to me, but nowadays you have access to all this information and media instantly and the shit is not filtered. I rarely watch anime nowadays unless a friend or reviewers I trust recommends it. There are still good shit out there, but even KyoAni, one of the best studios imho, had to resort to pandering to lolicons with Kobayashi Maid Dragon-whatever-the-name-is because they were not making any money. Really nasty.

I'd never bash someone for being abit overweight though, don't know what they're going through.
Anonymous 4656
>>4652Does it matter to you at all that those are just a few of many complex factors that can effect weight? For example, I never exercise and pay no attention to my diet and eat whatever I want even if that means three servings of ice cream and no vegetables (it often is) and I bet if I got fat I'd just stay fat because of this. However, because of my metabolism I'm relatively skinny. Does my laziness and lack of attention to diet not bother you because of my metabolism?

Very unpopular opinion, I guess… But Korean shows. Boy, everyone at work at their mom is obsessed with this shit to the point they act autistic.

Ugh.
First of all, they all look the same. Yeah, I'm sorry to say this but they look pretty much the same to me. I grew up watching some maymay and a jp movie every now and then, and I can speak a bit of the language, so hearing korean also bothers me.
Also, according to most reviews I read most of these shoes are just cute love dovey shit where the girl has to end with the ~prince~.

>>4566It has nothing to do with them making money or not, it's that they want more. Anime is becoming more saturated with garbage, because that's what sells, and it's so easy to make. Why make a good anime with an interesting plot, fleshed out characters, and a unique setting when you can just throw a bunch of big tittied moe-archetypes/cute boy moe-archetypes into a school and make it a shit harem? One of them is going to sell a lot more merch of the husbando/waifu characters. Sure, the good anime will do well, sell some things and give a decent return, and it will probably have loyal fans, but it won't have gross otaku neckbeards and fujoshits clamouring for the swimsuit clad version of their favorite generic cute characters, throwing $100 at a time for a plastic model they can stare at all day.

I feel like I see a shitload of posts that complain about the elderly and how weird and gross they are and about how their life experiences are totally irrelevant to young people because they may have held racist/homophobic views, etc, but I feel like most elderly individuals I talk to are gentle, willing to give life advice, and aren't as quick to condemn modern values as people stereotype them to.
Maybe I'm biased because the area I'm from is more progressive, I'm not sure. I feel like a lot of elderly people know when to shut their mouth if they disagree with something.
Also, I don't think because of their time period that they should be excused for their toxic ideologies, but I do think that they should be listened to because I think their many life experiences can hold value to young people. Maybe I'm too idealistic.

>>4717I strongly agree with you, Anon. My father is the youngest of 5 children, so my grandparents, great-aunts, and great-uncles on that side were older than usual. They also lived in a rural area, so changes in their spot of America lagged behind the cities. One of my great-uncles was born in 1907 and died in 2005. He told me about what it was like to ride in buggies and care for horses, people's reactions to World War I, and popular music of his youth. Talking to eyewitnesses to history gives things a "human touch" you cannot get from history books. I have also been able to get good life advice from the elderly in general. I volunteer at a nursing home occasionally.
One of the oddest things in my experience is that the elderly men I talk to tend to be more respectful and polite and overall "gentlemanly" with me than many men my own age. When dating, I often feel that I'm viewed as less intelligent than them or that they cannot wait to get to the part where we fuck. Yet The common perception is that old men are all sexist assholes and young men are enlightened and polite.

I get upset when people patronize a woman in an abusive relationship as if that's all she'll ever be; an abused woman.
Newsflash, some people choose to be in an abusive relationship because to not be in the current one they are in would be worse. "Abused" women can get fucking master's degrees, high paying jobs, fine social lives, etc. and I'm sick if it being viewed as a character flaw that one is still in an abusive relationship. I know, extreme projection is going on here, but I hate feeling like something's ethically wrong with me (because of others) since I don't "just leave" a relationship. I don't plan on having children to expose to the person I'm with, I don't see how it is wrong for me to stay since I'm the only one they abuse. I hate being looked at as weak.

How do you grow up to be like that? Why would you want to be in an abusive relationship? Jesus Christ… I know how it feels like to be trapped in one and feel like you can't escape, even though you receive threats and shit. it's horrible and it was very hard for me to get out even though I knew my ex was being a violent and abusive cunt. But willingly ask to be in a relationship with a guy who treats you like a shit stain? Work on your heart and mind, girl.

As someone who's severely allergic to a lot of everyday foodstuff, I don't mind diet fads like gluten-free at all. Money talks, and in the last years the variety of allergy-friendly products has improved significantly thanks to that demand. When I was little, my family had to go on 3 hour road trips to find a whole foods store that carried products I could eat, and they were exorbitantly expensive. Eating out was impossible.
When I express this, usually I hear that people with real allergies and tolerances are being taken less seriously as a result of diet fads and run into risk of being fed the wrong products in spite or to show them "it's all in their head", but if I pay a barista for a non-diary drink or ask for something to be left out, and they do it wrong because they think it doesn't matter, then that's on them and not the fault of the customer, no matter whether the customer is truly allergic or not. You're being paid to render a service and it's not up to you to decide if this customer deserves to have their order made a certain way or not as long as the ingredients ordered are available in your store. It's none of your business why the customer chose not to have an ingredient, as long as you offer it.

Korean pop culture is garbage. The TV shows are garbage, the pop is garbage, the cuisine is overhyped (and largely a copy of aspects of Chinese/Japanese cuisine), it has some good movies but that's about it.
On top of that, the people are insufferable. Ever since Korea gained some international fame, the overseas ones have been shilling the heck out of it (for free) or think their god's gift to women (and men) in the case of Koreans in Korea. They also believe Korea was some great, important historical power, which was extremely wealthy, when in reality it was just some backwater de facto province of China.
Finally, they're racist, hostile, rude and unfriendly. And they have an army of socially maladjusted freaks ready to defend them for doing things they'd crucify white people for.

The ratio of good to bad series is probably the same, but the sheer volume of bad series is more noticeable when there's 40 of them being made every few months. There is still good anime being made, and good manga left to adapt, you just have to do your research before picking things up.

I have the same opinion regarding the sense of humor and fanservice, but I tend to say that I like anime and manga because there are enough of them that don't have much fanservice and other bad/unlikable aspects that I love.
I feel like there are two types of popular anime: the ones that are very clearly aimed at a hardcore otaku audience so the fans are very actively involved in these shows, spend a lot of money on merchandises and BD even though in the end the number of fans is relatively low, and the ones that have stories and/or art styles that appeal to a mainstream audience as well as otakus, so while not everyone isn't going to be hardcore fans, the number of fans in general is going to be huge,, like for FMA and Death Note as you said. I tend to be picky and avoid fans of weird shows that come every season and are just boring harem or fanservice shit, I find it easier to find good shows and not be disappointed in general.

Characters should be written to be diverse, Dumbledore being gay, Hermione being black or Katniss being Native American shouldn't be an afterthought added later to the lore on order to gain a few new fans.
I can appreciate that some people feel the desperate need to project their own features onto book characters in order to relate to them but it doesn't make it canon. Demand more diverse characters in media but don't force that diversity onto existing characters, that's pointless imo.

But you're probably right, they just want to get new fans with fake diversity.

>>4810YES THANK YOU. Also all of the people complaining that giving up allergens is "trendy" are NEVER people who have allergies themselves. They're usually people working in the catering industry or parents who think having an allergy makes Little Jimmy special.
As someone with a bad dairy allergy, veganism was the best thing that happened for us. When I was diagnosed as a baby, all there was available to me was soy milk. Now there's almond milk, cashew milk, coconut milk, rice milk, oat milk, vegan cheese, vegan ice cream, vegan cream…it's Also easier than ever to eat out. Every cafe now stocks soy milk and people are more aware of allergies (lol when I was younger, a barista made me pay for a coffee with skimmed milk because he thought I ordered soy milk because I was trying to lose weight) whereas before I had to pay the same price as everyone else for black coffee/tea.
Allergies exist for a reason. Milk and gluten were only introduced into our diet pretty recently in our history and not everyone has the ability to digest them. If you feel cramps or bloated after eating either of them, why the fuck would you continue consuming them, confirmed allergy or not? There are other benefits of giving up milk and gluten for people who don't have allergies like having more energy and having better skin.
My unpopular opiníon is that people should mind their own damn business when someone orders something and says they've an allergy. You shouldn't need a doctors note to eat out. If someone says they're allergic to tomatoes, whip up something without tomatoes. Your job is to make food, not give people advice on their dietary choices. If being a chef is your passion, you should be able to work with whatever you have and enjoy the challenge. I've actually seen a café in my area ban vegans because they're too lazy to learn how to make something without cheese.

>>5054>>5053Black Hermoine playing in a musical isn't the problem, it's the angry, reaching SJWs who try to say that's her canon appearance is the problem. The way her appearance was written, and the fact that Rowling flat out drew her white TWICE and shaded the parts she wanted to be dark in both the illustrations, and the time period the books were written (and in western europe no less), black people weren't as relevant, important, or popular. It's obvious Rowling made her to be white. All of this was talked about in the lolcow thread.
It's just not canon and it's weird to suddenly drastically change the entire appearance of one character to cater to a small group of people. It's almost like fetishizing blacks, the same way koreaboos and weebs fetishize asians. The entire situation is really gross and creepy how this is accepted. Turn it around, and it's white washing which would raise even more hell and the series would be shunned. I absolutely hate the hypocrisy we're living and think it's repulsive.

Race-swapping as a general thing pisses me off because it's stupid. People should be making their own content to fix under-representation. But no, they always latch onto popular shit that, guess what, got popular without the weird representation swap shit. Make this character a girl, make this one trans, make this one black. And they fly off the handle and threaten you when you insult their "head cannon" or representation of it. It's outrageous and seeing a writer play into it and justify these people is disgusting.

I saw something complaining about Sharia zones in U.K., and they showed this sign to display the ~evils~ of Sharia law. I really think everything listed seems pretty reasonable…and although I don't want to live in a poor refugee neighborhood with crazy guys, I wouldn't mind these laws being enforced in a neighborhood I was otherwise living in.
Likewise, I think the London (Muslim) mayors plan to ban ads depicting scantily dressed women seems like a nice idea.
To take it a bit further on this unpopular opinion about Sharia/Islam, If burqas didn't come with shitty Middle Eastern culture I wouldn't mind if it became a worldwide "trend" to wear out in public. I like fashion, but it'd be nice not having to worry about how I look every morning. Not having to fix my makeup etc. I could do my hair/makeup and get dolled up before having friends over. Otherwise, I could sleep in until the last minute every.single.day…
I also like the idea of men and women being somewhat separated (onsens and women-only cars in Japan for example). I wouldn't mind male/female separated swimming pools, cafes, gyms, movie theaters etc.

It's not a matter of them being raging SJWs, the fact is that when you acknowledge the veracity of their historical framework, they win by default. E.g:
>"I know my ancestors did horrible things, but…"
You've lost before you've even begun. No. Your ancestors didn't do horrible things, they did the exact same things everyone else did but on a different scale because they could project power across huge fucking oceans. Moreover, why am I the only one who has to preface any historical commentary with ancestral mea culpas? No other group is expected to do this. Etc etc.
You have to challenge the kernel of the thing, which is that whites are somehow uniquely morally evil in terms of their behavior, otherwise they'll just trap you into using their own rhetoric and beat you through pattern-matching rhetoric of their own ("See?

Most people don't care if you are listening to music if it isn't causing them or others harm. And even then, there is music for the most hardcore of Muslims (no stringed instruments, just male voices etc)…but if someone is in their home it's not like standing outside or sitting in their car. They have to sell their house or break their lease and find a new place if they want to escape an inconsiderate neighbor who plays music all day.

Oh, and on that note, here's my unpopular opinion: movies like the parent trap, etc are really damaging for twin children to watch. For one, they use the same person to represent two people, which should be obvious as to why that is fucked up. Secondly, it contributes to all the stupid "stereotypes" which imo are completely made up by single born people because they are so threatened when they see two people and seem to barely be able to comprehend their autonomy as two individuals simply because of appearance. A lot of "twin" behavior is made up completely by people who think it's a joke, twins get raised by singleborn parents, they get indoctrinated (i.e they get taught how twins should be), and the cycle continues.

Twin studies are not as accurate as people treat them. For one, like I was stating about how twins are treated in the media, if a twin is exposed to that all their life, it essentially is telling them how to be with their twin. That's like saying that women "scientifically" are more caring than men; it's difficult to actually measure because there is such a large social expectation of that on them from a young age.
Furthermore, twin studies only take into account people who want to take them aka twins who like being similar to each or find that interesting about each other.
Lastly,you completely ignored the existence of epigenetics.
Clearly you don't think about how your kind of thinking affects someone growing up as a twin.

I don't know if the historical illuminati is still active but there are definitely people in power who really like putting the imagery in their media which usually contains Gnostic themes. Anime is mostly free from this for some reason though which is why I prefer it over Western entertainment. Japan has their own problems with their media but at least it seems like they don't have a cult of transhumanist gnostics running the show over there… Or maybe they have the same agenda and are just working a different angle than the Americans are and not being so campy about le pyramids everywhere and le all seeing eye and le freemason checkerboard floors and the red and blue Kabballah color symbolism. Weeb traps are different from western transpeople who really like Marvel and Cartoon Network but they all got brainwashed just the same.

>>5273 You missed the point (or I did not articulate what I meant well at all). Yes, women are more caring on average then men; however, people often use that to assume women are somehow biologically disposed towards that, when I'm saying that is not necessarily why. People immediately assume the same with twins, that it must be genetic, but I doubt it is as dependent on genetics as it is made out to be. Twins are often forced to wear the same clothing and participate in the same activities for a long period of time as a child, and even in cases where they are raised separately as children, they still are often raised by parents with similar backgrounds who may know they are a twin anyway. I don't think it is explored enough in terms of why twins are similar how twins get affected by their depictions in popular culture, the fact their parents already have a preconceived notion of what being a twin is, etc.
You were saying I don't know anything about twin studies. Since I apparently don't, enlighten me as to why the factors I've brought up aren't valid.
Also, I don't see why you being a biology major necessarily trumps what is I'm saying. It's a broad field and if you're only an undergraduate, i have no idea why that would give you so much authority on the specific topic of twin studies unless you've devoted a lot of time to the study of it.

>>5282>enlighten me as to why the factors I've brought up aren't valid. They're valid, but they're controlled for. Family influence, and shared environment in general (schools attended, etc.) is taken into account.
>People immediately assume the same with twins, that it must be genetic, but I doubt it is as dependent on genetics as it is made out to be. Really? You doubt that the blueprint every organism on this planet is built out to is not related to the characteristics of that organism? :(
The assumption is eminently reasonable: identical twins are each others' clones. Literally. They even share the prenatal environment, so they get exposed to the same hormones during development. There is a lot of ground for similarity to occur.
You, on the other hand, are coming up with all sorts of untenable just-so scenarios, pointedly to minimise any influence biology might have. It's kind of ironic really. You're not made of plasticine, to be moulded by your parents first and then "society" to whatever shape they see fit. You're already born as your own individual being with your intrinsic characteristics. And yet, in striving for your individuality, you reject its most solid basis, constantly over-emphasising the influence of others on who you are.
You are unique in your own way, even were you to be extremely similar to your sister. Obviously I can't relate to you since I don't have a twin sister. But maybe you're getting too hung up about it too.

I can emphasise more with you now that I read this though, and I can see why you're so keen to differentiate yourself from your sister. But I think you're blaming the wrong things.
And I really feel like I should say this again: you're not made of plasticine. If you want to assert your individuality, the worst you can do is to constantly involve yourself with what others think of you.

>>5270The anon you are replying too is correct. You may be different from your own twin, but for the most part twins are very, very similar.
As a society we're uncomfortable with the reality that genes are very important even outside of appearance because these ideas have some baggage, but then again the idea that environment determines everything also comes with baggage too, that isn't as widely publicized (Soviet Union and Lysenkoism for example).

No, I'm saying human beings are bipedal mammals who can spot genetic fitness in others. Of course there are outliers who find hideously obese people attractive etc, but this doesn't invalidate the overwhelming general trend that there are basic principles governing what we find attractive for the vast majority of us.
Being able to spot genetic fitness from things like the shape of a face or the consistency and healthyness of ones skin is quite literally a biological imperative.

Japan's monoculturalism, ethnocentrism, nationalism, patriarchy and lack of hate speech and discrimination laws are all good things which the UK should adopt.
Any Japanese prime minister who does not worship at Yasukuni should be branded a cuck and hurled from office.
The British government should repeal the obscene publications act, video nasties act, dangerous cartoons act etc too, and give immediate pardons to all victims.
Gun control in the UK should be rolled back to pre-1980 levels.
Smoking in pubs should be re-allowed and tobacco sponsorship should be allowed to return to motor racing and other sports.
The death penalty should be reinstated, by firing squad. It can give soldiers a taste of real killing when there's no war on.
There should be a major push to revitalise the ancient religions of the European tribes. "Reconstructionism" be damned. Besides, the Anglo-Saxons had slightly re-named Nordic gods and there's a fuckload of Nordic literature left, I'm sure the Anglo-Saxon beliefs were not greatly different. There's your "reconstruction".
The British government should "nationalise" limited heritage production of original Minis, Morris Minors, MG Midgets and MGB's, with no concessions to modernity at all.
National Basic Income should be introduced in the UK, but only for women who stay at home and raise children. It will be increased incrementally for every child, but non-White children will be capped at one, whereas White children will be capped at three, White children with parents who can demonstrate 4 generations of UK residence will be capped at five.
Britain ought to have mini blocks of flats and tiny houses like Japanese cities. What the fuck do you even do with all those rooms? I live in a building of 6 flats which would fit comfortably in the area of my parents' house back home. The housing crisis would be solved at a stroke.

And it wasn't really "Japanese Americans", who are some of the most quiet Asian-Americans. As ever with "Asian American" issues the loudest voices were ethnic Chinese and Koreans. Remember the embarassment about the Boston Museum of Fine Arts holding the Kimono party organized by the Jap consulate and the Koreans and Chinese who gatecrashed it?
>>5423>is a white notionNot really, it's a sort of pan-racial nationalism they've fashioned as a result of living overseas together with people who are drastically different to them even moreso than their immediate neighbors. And obviously there's probably PRC money behind a lot of these "AAPI" organizations that constantly create friction and conflict in America.
>>5422>giving opportunities to asians in hollywoodWhy should we? Asian Americans threw a literal shitfit when a single Chinese big-budget movie (a fantasy movie remember) featured a couple of non-Asian characters (The Great Wall).
Asides from that one film, Chinese media is virtually monoracial and they were fighting to preserve that monoracialism in East Asian media. So why should westerners reciprocate with open-ness to people who are plainly and obviously racial nationalists?
On a broader note, the younger Asian-Americans I've met, particularly the males, are some of the whiniest people I've ever had the misfortune of encountering. They really do believe their hopelessness with white women is some sort of crucially important racial-discrimination/civil-rights issue that needs "redressing". They're arrogant as fuck too, it's like an entire ethnic group with /r9k/ levels of entitlement.
And the women constantly go on these weird Freudian rants about white men fetishizing them while having insane levels of white-fever only surpassed by their men (see: Suey Park and Anna Akana as two examples off the top of my head).
I've got a special contempt for Asian-Americans. I find them dishonest, disloyal and
unbelievably whiny. I have no idea why I ever imagined them to be stoical as a group. They're the furthest thing from it!

>>5506>Yeah well, it's no ones fault but your own you're unattractive. Lots of people were dealt shitty hands in terms of appearance, and appearance has a direct impact on personality. The harsh reality is that less attractive people are mistreated when growing up, and that creates personality defects and/or trains people to be avoidant which will in turn create more personality defects. The diseased cultural zeitgeist (spread via the media) enables this mistreatment by amplifying the importance of physical attractiveness and this has narrowed the spectrum of what is perceived as valuable in another person, especially in the under-35 crowd.
In essence, it is not your fault you are unattractive and by extension, not really your fault you have unattractive elements to your personality. The fault lies in an inability or willful failure to recognize unattractive traits and work to improve them, though this entire process often gets derailed by the depression the state of being unattractive in body and/or in spirit creates. It's easy to self-medicate and seek escapism when you are in a dark pit and can barely see the light of day up above.
Dismissing angry/pessimistic/bitter men and women as losers/failures ignores both the root causes and the very real suffering these people experience and on a more personal level, limits the quality and objectivity of your thought process and spiritual development. One does not ignore data simply because it paints an ugly picture, and the angry incel beta/bitter spinster tropes are far too widespread to be easily dismissable outliers. The fact that these people exist in large numbers and with similar problems and world views indicate a very important and conveniently malignancy in the social fabric that is of an origin exogenous to the people affected by it.

My unpopular opinion is that I don't like the idea of abortions.
Before I start a war: I'd never say anything to discourage anyone from getting one (which already happened before when a relative got one and didn't tell anyone but me), and I know anyone's abortion won't affect me personally, and that in most cases it's done very early so the soon to be baby won't feel pain…
Etc etc etc
But it still makes me sad/depressed to think about it and that the baby, if healthy, won't have a chance to live, and that's unfair to not give someone a chance at living no matter the circumstances.
But I know these are just feelings, not logic, and that every case is different, so I keep it to myself.
Maybe I think like this because my mom was always very against it, she is very religious.

that sadly just fuels idiots heads when they say all bi women are straight girls experimenting, or bored, or sexually repressed. that is dumb and only gives ammo for the REAL biphobics.

Granted, I do not even bring it up in person, because I am polite. But the mentality of these people makes me sick, it's so childish, "it's MY body" etc. They think in terms of social cliches and borrowed ideals and express no capacity nor desire to consider the symbolic meanings of the decisions they make and the moral character that they imbue.

Not that anon, but have you ever seen an aborted fetus at 8 weeks? If not, Google it. It looks like a tiny human baby, and yes, having an abortion at 8 weeks is absolutely legal in most countries where they have abortion laws. Everyone should decide by themselves if they want to have an abortion or not, but saying it's just a clump of cells as if it was some sort of cancer is absolutely disrespectful not only for the pregnant woman, but also for the baby. No matter how you put it, that clump of cells will grow to be a human baby if pregnancy isn't interrupted. If you wanna feel better about abortion, okay. But don't pretend the pregnant woman is gonna shit out a brick instead of human life. You're disgusting.

I don't get to strap people down and steal their blood or organs, even if they're dead, even if I give it to people who would die if they didn't get them. Hell, my parents made the choice to be dirty sluts and have me, and yet the minute I got out of the womb neither of them were under any obligation to, say, give me their liver if mine failed. But women are supposed to be incubators for fetuses, even though they're literally parasites, sure.

>>6324I never said it IS the same as a human baby, but that it will be one, and calling it a clump of cells is fucking disrespectful to many women who endure pregnancies, even for many who decide to get abortions. I'm not a pro-lifer, I just get horrified by people like you who try to dehumanize the entire process of pregnancy. Many people do that though, I shouldn't be surprised. If you want to keep comparing fetuses and embryos to cancer cells feel free to do it though.

Dogs are usually dumb as fuck (no, your dog and the super trained dogs used by the cops are not even comparable). So if you treat a dog nicely, the stupid dog will like you. That's why people like dogs. Meanwhile, you have to be worthy of cats love and affection. Dog people are usually just lazy asses to want dumb pet slaves as company.

>>6423I think it's so lame when people try to dis cat people or dog people, it's like a lazy radio show topic or something. In the US, a third of people own a cat and over a third of people own a dog. And there's a lot of overlap in that too. Any problem you have with people in general, being sloppy, stupid, lazy, WHATEVER, can be labeled to either group and be kinda right just because there's so many damn owners of either animal. There are archetypes like the crazy cat lady where you feel like you can tie them down to one group, but I've met some crazy dog ladies too.
>>6429kind of goes both ways on the lazy thing, you don't have to let a cat out to use the bathroom regularly, you just change it's box however often, and you don't have to walk a cat. And as far as cat owners or dog owners being.. problematic.. I know SO MANY dog owners who don't play with or exercise their dog enough, if at all. They're practically just decorations for their home or little backyard. And they feel so guilty over it that they exaggerate or lie about it too, I can easily picture someone on here doing the same and saying "that's not all of us! I know better!" when they walk their dog once a month. People who act like this really should just own cats because clearly they aren't "dog people", and I don't think most people who own cats are "cat people" either, but cats are independent as heck and can just be background characters and it's okay. I agree with you on the affection thing, dogs just like you, it's just what they do, you have to treat most cats well for it to like you and depending on their personality that may not even get you anywhere. I've had lots of both animals but if I had to label myself I'd say I'm a cat person because I think they're so pretty and their behavior suits me more.
Anonymous 6438
>>6435Oh yes, I totally agree with you on that since dogs require more "attention", in a way; as in going for walks. I should have explained that better. Both owners can be very problematic tho, in their very own ways, as you beautifully explained.
I don't hate dogs, they're very loyal, I guess. But I'm a cat person, I've been one since childhood… I guess I understand the hype of posting your cats pictures everywhere: you don't really take your cat for walks, so the internet is a good place to let the world see your cat, or your friends see them. I'm not on social media so I don't post my cat everywhere, but I do understand the feeling behind it.

Dogs are highly intelligent animals. If you ever had one, you'd know. My dog (without ever teaching him) knew hundreds of words (car, bed, walk, people's names, cat, the name of all the rooms in our house, the names of other dogs….I could go on). I've never seen a cat do that so I definately can't vouch for them having any kind of intelligence. He wasn't my "slave", he was a very independant dog. He told us when he wanted to eat, when he wanted to go for a walk, when he wanted to go outside for a pee, when he wasn't happy with something.
Dogs and humans have been together much longer and they have a really close relationship. The only symbiosis that cats offer is they stick around because they get fed and the humans get the satisfaction of having a live deccoration in the house. Honestly though, I'd encourage cat people to still continue getting cats. Cats are an animal for lazy people (they don't need to be entertained, they don't need to be fed because they can hunt for themselves, they don't need walks, they don't need to be washed…) and a cat person wouldn't be able for the responsibility of having a dog. I'm just sick of cat people constantly spewing about how superior they are to people who have dogs, it makes them look worse in my eyes than if they'd just say "Yeah I love having an animal that requires me to do little to no work and also it hates me and I'm okay with that, I still keep it because it looks cool wandering around the house".

They take more time to understand so maybe you don't have the patience for figuring that out.
I like cats because they're so complicated and it's fun seeing what makes each individual cat respond well. I've had dogs but I just don't enjoy them as pets as much because I felt like I didn't have as much to learn about them. I like them and will gladly watch over them if need be but I'm not crazy about having them as pets. They can be nice pets but not what I'm looking for. I work with cats p much day in and day out now and love it because the learning is nonstop.

Even as a cat person, having anyone's hair in my food is nasty and embarrassing so I'm extremely careful to keep things clean.
I think the main issue is a lot of people aren't very hygienic when they cook anyway, and having cats walking around and shedding hair just exasperates any bad cooking habits.
Notable examples of filthy cooking habits that are made worse by cats:
>>dropping food on the floor and reusing instead of tossing or rewashing with soapy water>>dropping utensils on the floor and reusing them>>not washing food at all before cooking>>not washing hands while cooking>>tasting food from a spoon and putting the spoon back in the food being cooked>>being lazy when washing dishes, and not thoroughly cleaning>>long hair swinging all over the food they are cooking, rather than pulling it backThese same people often have no issue petting their cats and then getting fur all over the food.

SJWs who post almost all the time about how racism, transphobia, sexism, homophobia, etc. is so bad tend to secretly be racist, homophobic, or sexist but in different ways than usual.

Trans people are either mentally unstable or attention whores, I don't understand why they're associated with the LGB part of LGBT group, aside from historical reasons. They're giving everyone else a shitty reputation.
I have no pity for people with illnesses, disorders or injuries that they brought on themselves. Don't smoke (cigarettes or anything else), drink alcohol with no moderation whatsoever or eat until your obese or get diabetes and complain about it. It's your fault.
There should be more places that are only for adults, no just bars and nightclubs. I know it's the case for some conventions, but I don't think that's the case in my country. Or if it is it's not common. I'm sick of going to cons where there are so many kids who hate it, with parents who either ignore them or hate the con as well, and see that so many of them don't know how to behave, especially when some of the con guests can be hentai artists and the booths are covered in NSFW pictures and merchandises. There's a cat cafe in my city that's only for clients above 15 or 1 I think and so many people are salty over this, but it's a great thing imo, because the only time I went there, it was full of kids mistreating the cats and playing with them like they were toys. I don't even dislike children but I guess I'm tired of them these days.
I don't like fanarts that depict racebending because the ones I see are all about "fixing" the character design and those ones are almost all ugly. Just fanarts that change the character design of literally anything to make it less "problematic" is usually shit and made by mediocre artists at best.
Fanfictions with almost any AUs are bound to be shit, depending on the original story. I'm sick of seeing Fire Emblem or Final Fantasy fanfics being college AUs or coffee shop AUs, they're always OOC and cringey. Or when more realistic stories with a modern setting have steampunk AUs or omegaverse AUs or whatever the fuck.

>>6705>Eugenics is misunderstood and underrated. Couldn't agree more.
My own unpopular opinion is that disabled people who are against people aborting disabled fetuses (astigmatism, cerebral palsy, downs syndrome etc) are retarded. Especially when they think parents shouldn't be allowed to have the test.
You're literally disabled. As in, not healthy, there's something developmentally wrong with you. You might be a nice guy but being diseased is not a good thing and the fact that you're
really cool despite your retardation does not and will not change that fact.
That fetus might turn out to be cool too, but chances are it'll become a huge burden on its parents and society.

I saw some post on ig calling out racism against asians and at least 50% of the comments were people saying "wELL but they're racist against black people!!" As if some asians being racist against black people excuses other people being racist against asians like how stupid.
>>6708>My own unpopular opinion is that disabled people who are against people aborting disabled fetuses (astigmatism, cerebral palsy, downs syndrome etc) are retarded.My problem with people aborting fetuses the moment they're told they will be disabled is that otherwise they would have kept that child. Giving birth to a non-disabled baby does not guarantee that they will not become disabled later in life.
I think you should be allowed to abort whenever for whatever reason.
But, if the only reason you would abort is the possibility of disability then I think you should not have children AT ALL, because what are you gonna do if you're healthy-born child becomes disabled? If you can't care for a disabled newborn, do not have children at all imo.

MFTE, so here comes another unpopular opinion: I don't think experimenting and flaunting a new identity are bad things, how are you gonna find out who you are if you don't try it on to see if it fits? Instead of condemning ~phases~, I think we should just let young people find themselves without making a huge deal out of it.
Also agreed that a lot of teens seem to be not very interested in sex outside of a hypothetical scenario or fantasies. I don't see a sex drive in a lot of my friends and think a lot of them go ~queer~ because straight relationships mean sex.
Anonymous 6715
>>6705agreed on all fronts. especially porn. not even just porn for males, but porn is a huge issue that fucks up your brain as far as sex is concerned.
Anonymous 6719
>>6709Same deal, because pornography has issues other than exploitation. Erotic comics and literature are just as bad when it comes to giving people strange fetishes and distancing them from prosocial sexual interests.
Also, saying porn should be illegal only for men only is hypocritical and pathetic.

>>6705>Antipsychotics cause irreversible brain shrinkage and cognitive decline, and definitely should not be prescribed for stuff like anxiety or depression. The depression epidemic is inflated with a bunch of mentally healthy people who crave concern and validation. Yep, I think something similar to this but I have a different take on it.
Doctors are far too eager to hand a bottle of pills to patients who can be effectively treated with things like cognitive behavioral therapy alone. Drugs should be reserved for those who have suffered severe mental trauma that's left something distinctly out of place, for lack of a better way of wording it. It's irresponsible to prescribe antidepressants to people who are mentally and emotionally balanced enough to go without them, especially because they could have worse side-effects.

>>6712Maybe it's because I don't want and don't like children at all that I'm able to think of it this way, but if your child becomes disabled you deal with it because there's nothing else you can do at that point. But an unborn child is still "a project" in a sense, you can do something about it, so why would you keep it going if there's a big enough chance it'll be disabled? Scrape it and try again. Why put yourself, the child, and the world around it through that suffering?

There's nothing wrong with makeup, and I definitely like wearing some myself, but most people just wear TOO MUCH. Then complain they have horrible skin and that they're aging fast at 22. Of course, you pretty much paint your face everyday.
Most girls don't even need foundation tbh. I'm sure YOU reading this rn looks good without it. Trust me.
Anonymous 6746
>>6745i agree but i think a lot of the problem is that a lot of people are wearing the wrong makeup, not just too much. i wear a ton of makeup on a daily basis but it looks good because it works with -me-. makeup is something you need to pick out for you specifically, you can't just buy what everyone else buys or buy an expensive brand and expect it to look good on you. another thing is that people follow tutorials to a T and it looks bad because the tutorial only works good for the person who made it or people exactly like them.
adding to this, i feel that makeup tutorials in general are stupid unless it's strictly technique, because of everything i just said. i think that people can copy a look, but then they have to have good understanding of how to translate something that someone does onto their own faces. think of white girls trying to copy looks from japan but not trying to fit it to their face and just doing the exact same thing as if their face works that way.

>>6753When make-up became a thing again at the turn of the century it was almost unchanged from the 1700's. Flappers used Kohl or a nice mix of Vaseline, fat, and fireplace soot, foundation had lead, rouge had a good chance of being another type of lead or mercury, and then you had things like the Lash Lure incidence. It wasn't until 1938 that make-up came under the rule of the FDA and deaths began to drop.
However, if you think that means the make up industry still doesn't use toxic chemicals you're a fucking moron. They still use lead and mercury and zinc and all those pretty little pigments- just in concentrations low enough that it won't outright kill you and mixed with other chemical agents- one's that'll give you cancer. On top of that in recent years people have had to worry about counterfeit or just cheap make-up from China that has the cancer chemicals AND the old unsafe levels.

Your bare minerals foundation still has titanium dioxide manufactured from the same factory that the KILZ house paint gets their's from. It's still got petroleum byproducts to set it and give it that nice consistence. It's still packed with preservatives or else it wouldn't even be legal to sell. Fucking hell, just pour some fucking mineral oil and curing salt into a quart of odorless semi-gloss and slop it on your face with a roller, it's same fucking shit as your organic vegan mineral powder.
Even if we were somehow to invented an artificial gorp that's physically okay to leave on your skin for hours, the psychological and social damage make up does is so insidious and horrifying it should be done away with anyways. But oh it's okay if little girls grow up thinking women don't have pores, that's totally healthy and man you just gotta smear some overpriced crap on your nasolabial folds or else the world will end. Without make up a penis wielder might not thinking you're the prettiest girl at the ball and then all your puking will have been for nothing :'(

I think single parents should get more financial support from our state if they work but don't get payed much and don't recieve child support. They are under a lot of stress taking care of a child alone and working fulltime. They shouldn't have financial troubles on top of that.

>>6745>>6760Totally agree with you, not sure why you've been met with so much anger. Makeup is full of horrible ingredients and gives men unrealsitic expectations.
I feel comfortable in makeup, ngl. I don't leave the house without foundation, concealer and mascara on. But I hate living like this. I'm so jealous that men can walk outside unashamed with patchy red skin or acne and nobody even says a word. When I don't have makeup on I get comments about how I look sick or too pale or tired and everyone will comment on how my skin has broken out, which makes me feel like shit. I feel naked without makeup and that's NOT a good thing.
I'm also really happy for women who have made careers for themselves with makeup. I love seeing women do well. But they've built their careers by selling things to other women that they don't need. Advertisements for women create this horrible anxiety around aging and it's sick. That same pressure to put on five different creams before bed isn't put on men.
I love makeup but I also hate it. It's dangerous and I don't think it should be sold to us like it is.

In fact you don't really need anything from that list, you don't even really need to use soap, lotions or shampoo to wash yourself, that's all a new thing, humans have been washing with natural stuff for millennia, you just use these products to have a pleasant smell, as other people like to use makeup to improve their lives. So unless you're a hardcore vegan no-poo no-soap no-electronics hippie you're just being a hypocrite.
>"Well I'm not going to limit my car usage because there's so many other sources of pollution!"How does this even relate? people can choose to reduce their personal chemical intake however they want to without affecting others, theres a million ways, why does it have to be YOUR way, so weird. I can assure you a lot of people that wear makeup everyday have less chemical intake than you, either they are vegan, live in a less polluted country, go no-poo… theres just too many variables.

Well if you wear it you're gonna get comments on being fake anyway, good thing normal people don't fucking care and do what they want.
If anything, it must be equally bad being a man with bad skin and having to suck it up and live with it because it's not socially acceptable for straight men to wear makeup yet, as in, they're getting fired if they do. At least i get to choose.

This is an unpopular opinion thread, not a misinformed facts thread. If you say you don't like makeup bc it has all of these fucked up chemicals like everything else, then it's okay, no one is going to argue or try to convince you to wear it bc people understand that we like and dislike different things and that's normal.
But when you go around telling people that makeup is literal poison and it should be banned and if they wear it they're gonna get cancer and die (lol) you just sound like a fucking idiot. I hope you understand the difference.

So far you haven’t, even when I ask for it. Teasing out variables to determine their individual impact is a basic principle of science. On top of that, why would someone reduce their chemical intake in all ways but the most basic and easy way? If someone’s obese and starts running and eating more carrots but doesn’t stop their soda intake, the running and carrots doesn’t magically cancel out the soda and they should still stop drinking it.
>Why do these people talk like someone is forcing them to wear makeup lol what the actual fuckIt’s not surprising that you’re too stupid to understand why businesses work and advertise and influence the media the way they do, or the nuances of what they do to society, but believe me, many people far smarter than you do.

It's the first time I've even said the word "natural" you deranged bitch, and people have used oils and water separately instead of emulsifying agents for millennia, and there's natural emulsifying agents too, agar for example.
The fact that you can't even see that it's statistically obvious that there're millions of people that wear makeup and still have a lower chemical intake than you, talks about how self absorbed in your stupidity you are.
Pretty much anyone who lives in Brazil for example has a lower chemical intake than you, whether they wear makeup or not, because they live in a place where processed foods are not the norm, have easy access to local food suppliers, less polluted air because of the amazon rainforest, and aren't as bombarded with radiation from electronics than someone in a first world country. Pretty much any vegan has a lower chemical intake than you, because it's fucking easy to compare the big amount of food that a human eats in a day to a few drops of product on your face.

I don't believe that there's a "war on free speech" or all that "thought police" bullshit. No one is telling you what to think, but when you think shitty things and say them out loud people are allowed to call you an idiot and an asshole. People are allowed to not want to associate with you if they think your opinions are shitty, and no one is obligated to give you a platform to share your shitty opinions (yes, even if it hurts your precious feefees).
Anonymous 6861
>>6837the "war on free speech" isn't about the minor annoyance of being called an asshole for something you said, it is about the government being able to pursue legal action against you (possibly detaining or jailing you – or even executing you) for something you said. this is already the case in countries like Egypt, Saudi Arabia, China, North Korea, and Turkey.
If somebody is making credible threats to incite violence that should certainly warrant government intervention – but fining, censoring, or detaining somebody for posting an "offensive" meme on social media is definitely traipsing into the realm of thought police and thoughtcrime, and this is something we are increasingly seeing in the US, Canada, UK, etc.

Maybe this isn't too unpopular of an opinion but the alt right is full of self righteous edgelords who don't really understand the big picture and slink their way through arguements using certain loopholes. They cherrypick using the dumbest people on the left as examples too.

unpopular opinion but
good god the louis ck drama that's unfurled of late is making me really annoyed. from what i understand, those women all consented to participate in his exhibitionism fetish with the exception of the phone call iirc. sure, exhibitionism is odd and uncomfortable for some, but does having a weird kink make you a sexual abuser? not really. the one part that i would have a problem with are the allegations that he tried to quash the careers of women who refused him…but tbh, that can't actually be proven. and ffs, Tig, the man helped out your career and asked for nothing in return and your problem with it is your belief that he he only helped you because you're a woman? Would you have preferred no assistance at all? tf.
but of course, I can't say any of this to my friends, because if I do, I'm 'siding with the abuser' for pointing out that those were consensual sex acts. I fucking know what abuse is, and watching a guy whack off in front of you after you've said 'well, okay' to it doesn't fit my definition. also! you can't just bandwagon onto the first side to point fingers without evidence. that is a fucked up way to think, and that is how you get women who make false accusations of rape or abuse in order to enact 'revenge' on their exes or w/e. before you dismiss that as hyperbole, i know of at least three women who have already done this in the past seven years and one more who's planning to make a false accusation and actually discussed her plans to do so in detail with me. it does happen, it's just that these women rarely ever get caught. i always thought it was a myth perpetuated by bitter incels until i saw it happen, and now it's completely colored my view of these types of accusations. there has to be more than just hearsay for me to believe anything these days.

I noticed a lot of the lower end healthy range BMI girls who want to lose a lot of weight are skinny-fat and like to pretend other women are as clunky looking and sedentary as they are. What they need is the gym, not a diet.

I fully understand the irony/hypocrisy of posting this here but I legitimately abhor social media. I plan to completely remove myself from all social media within the next 2 years. I dislike sharing my life with others or making any parts of my life public; I always have to ask myself, "Why do I want to share this? What am I trying to prove? Who even cares about this besides me and the people I'm with?" I realize that social media is not all bad and I will miss the convenient aspects of using it, but I just feel like I need to unplug. I barely post in the first place but I still post, and I still care (even slightly) about getting engagement/attention. I hate the way I reach for my phone without even thinking about it, and I hate how many hours of my life are swallowed up by bullshit on the internet. It truly is an addiction and I just hate it.
I suppose this isn't really an "unpopular" opinion but it is admittedly cringey and I would never say it out loud to anyone.

>>4564i thought Hermione could be black when I started reading philosopher's stone. I think because she was so out of place and on her own. she didn't read the same as the rest until almost the end of the book. to me.
I agree I don't think emma Watson is cute and I think that's the real unpopular opinion. I also think Radcliff did a horrible job as harry and never grew into being an actor. the only real child actor there was Neville and luna. I also think snape overacted. there I said it. he telegraphed too much. also the movies focused on friendships while the books were about class. which made the books better. also the books weren't written very well. like this post. I had to book on tape the rest of the books and lost interest at the end of half blood prince and didn't buy the last 2 tapes. ps. her retcon Dumbledore taught me to pay her no heed. Dumbledore was not gay in the first few books. she waited for feedback and then changed the character tone.
Anonymous 7164
>>7163I agree with everything you said.
I only read up until book 4 before I lost interest, but I've passively followed the fandom because some of my friends are really into it and it seems like JKR has no spine when it comes to her characters and will adapt them based on popular opinion. e.g. Hermione black, Dumbledore gay, Snape's whole storyline…
also just based on the first 4 books I don't understand most of the endgame couples.

There's nothing wrong with "being a weeb" and/or dressing in alt fashion, it doesn't necessarily make you any less attractive. I keep seeing girls in imageboards saying they "finally let go of their silly childish tastes" and how now that they're normie they're getting all this attention and compliments, but I don't think that has anything to do with a change in style, but rather with a change in attitude.
What makes me even more sure of that is the fact that they mention eating right, going to the gym, caring about their appearance, and learning how to speak to others as part of their becoming normie efforts. It sounds so silly to me, because you absolutely can do all those things and keep your interests without having to engage in music, series and other entertainment that you don't care about for the sake of "fitting in".
I don't judge anyone for trying to better themselves, but I find it very sad when they make looking down on things they used to enjoy (and on the people who like these things, which happens very often) a part of this "bettering themselves", just because it came with a negative attitude and lifestyle for them.

she is a plagiarist–too me. she has been sued. some were thrown out but I believe at least one went away quietly. a lot of the elements in her books come from other sources and she does a fantastic job of blending. like the elevator at the ministry, the weasleys house, and Dumbledore himself. there was a time where I could tell you where everything came from. her Wikipedia page has been edited to death to whitewash everything but one of her old jobs was for a newspaper or something. she did a lot of reading. kinda like how Edison worked at the patent office.

Personally, I think the entire idea of gender and gender defined roles needs to be retired as a societal concept and we'll be better off for it.
If you're born with ovaries but want to wear practical clothing like work pants or overalls, wear it. If you're born with a penis and actually want to wear fussy fancy frilly clothes and pantyhose, hey, fuck it, just wear it. You have ovaries and are intelligent, go into a STEM program, whatever, who the fuck cares. You have a penis but want to be a pediatric nurse, same deal, just do it.
That said, the problem is that our society has a mouth-breathing, slack-jawed, erection-in-public obsession with SEX. Even if we dropped the concept of gender-defined behaviours and the limits they put on people, there still would hitches because some males would still be distracted because HOLY FUCK TITS ON THE WORKSITE BOYS!! WHOOOOOOOEEEEEEEEEE!!

I get it that you're joking, but seriously what is the honest problem with people who are non-binary?
Or is it that the non-binary movement attracts people who are more seeking ~*Special Status*~ in general as opposed to irregular gender presentation?
Moving away from societally created restrictive rules like "real girls wear skirts" or "real boys don't cry" can only be a benefit to society as a whole. But it seems like any move forward on any facet, be it political or personal, attracts a small league of people looking less for societal advancement and more for their own personal 15 minutes of fame and followers.

as transgender (or non-binary) itself is problematic because of the things it implies.
>Moving away from societally created restrictive rules like "real girls wear skirts" or "real boys don't cry" can only be a benefit to society as a wholeExactly, but that would mean the person
accepts they are a boy/girl (considering they are cis and are
fine with their biological bodies) and knows that just because they are that sex/gender it doesn't mean they need to follow their roles. That's breaking the rules, and doing what you said in what I greentexted.
But "being nonbinary" is an inherently shit thing to do, and that's why they're all snowflakes. They
need to be delusional and extremely self-centered to believe that not conforming to the sex/gender rules is something that sets them apart from others; if they took one second to look outside themselves they'd see that's how nearly everyone lives. By that logic, either everyone is also non-binary (which is fine and just another name for "breaking the stereotypes") or everyone who isn't is a caricature stereotype. And considering the big deal they make out of their identity, I don't think the first option is the one they believe in.
I just googled it to see if there was any good argument against this and nope, there aren't. They just repeat the same "I'm different, I don't feel like my gender" crap and seem incapable of understanding that placing yourself outside a system is a way to validate said system as a thing that exists and cannot be changed or destroyed, only escaped. How are people this fucking dumbSage because I honestly can't stand this nonsense anymore. It's seeping into my everyday life and the government is passing actual laws to validate it. What the fuck.

Women on government assistance, or recipients of dependent's assistance, should be required to be on birth control. Subsequent pregnancies that aren't aborted mean lifetime loss of any and all assistance, or transfer of control of funds to a non-family court appointed guardian in the case of dependents. I know they're working on a reversible birth control for men, as soon as that's available it should be mandatory as well.
Also birth control should be mandatory with only medical exceptions from puberty to age 18. No one under 18 should ever be having a child.

We eventually broke up because I couldn't get into the role-playing aspects of that kind of situation, but I don't think any less of him for it.
The truth is that we have a number of individuals out there in society who have an 'unhealthy' view of sexuality, if you define healthy as 'totally without kinks, only missionary position, only heterosexual' relations. We can't get rid of them–once someone is conditioned to get off to a certain fetish, it's not like they can erase that from their experience. But are they really hurting anyone? Unless their 'thing' is snuff films, child abuse, or extreme sadomasochism, no. So if it doesn't impact others or society as a whole, why should it be a big deal what someone does in the privacy of their own home?

If I'm in a shoe store trying on heels and a random stranger approaches me to compliment my arches, that's gonna be received in an entirely different way than the former.
tl:dr; Kink-shaming is a shitty thing to do to other people, but only when it's non-consensual, or if they're trying to use the general, non-consenting public as a vehicle to publicize their agenda or enact their weird fetish on.

They're a bit like ornamentation, in which they divert it from the thing in itself. People's tastes are becoming overly-saturated to the point where they can't even imagine how sex can be exciting and fulfilling without these things, and that's exemplified by what you associated with "healthy sex" and 'a lack of kinks."
Not to mention things like BDSM and humiliation sounds like people are internalizing the religious mores of the inherent sinfulness of sex instead of working past it. Beats the fuck out of me why anyway would ever think that associating sex with destructiveness is a totally healthy *~sex posi~* attitude, literally. Meh, I don't really give a fuck if someone likes to suck toes, but the products of this anything goes attitude where anything short of actual pedophilia and bestiality is encouraged - aren't all equally innocuous.

It's no different than anything else in a relationship, and could be a dealbreaker. Public expression of kinks on randos is a huge issue though. I don't want to be at the beach with someone sperging about how much they love feet, side eyeing my sandals, who then gets mad at -me- for expressing discomfort.

Anonymous 7396
>>7378Why do you think that sex is worthy of reverence? it's a reproductive act. It's only because we've been conditioned by society to think of it as an intimate romantic act that we treat it as such. I think what you seem to be criticizing is more the issue of casual sex rather than kinky sex.
When you're talking about 'anything short of pedophilia and bestiality', I assume you're referring to common kinks like sadomasochism? I think that sort of thing can actually be healthy for people, as long as they restrict it to the bedroom and they're not going all Patrick Bateman in the rest of their life and actually physically or emotionally abusing their partner. It's kind of cathartic to have someone else take control of the situation if you have a high-stress life where you're usually the one in charge.
But like you suggested, it comes down to conditioning. With the easy access we all have to porn nowadays, it's natural that people are going to be exposed to unusual kinks, and just saying 'shame, shame!' won't fix that once it's already incorporated into their sexual tastes. But I think sex can still be a 'reverent' act even if it has kinky elements– it's more about the relationship between the partners than the physical act itself.

>>Am I the only one who thinks standard American English sounds nice?My favorite accent is mid-atlantic, although it was just used for old-time movies…would love if it caught on…..Even then, I like my native Californian accent and light Southern accents.
Prefer them to the various British accents even.
Anonymous 7520
>>7518I'm biased b/c I am from America, but I do like the general American accent quite a bit, but particularly the Californian accent where I've lived my whole life. Light Southern accents can sound sweet and warm. I have a somewhat strong Valley girl accent and I like it, I don't mind that someone who is judgmental might think I'm stupid because of it.
This is another unpopular opinion, but I hate English accents. I have no idea why everyone over here think they sound "hot" or "educated". I feel like it sounds dumb for some reason and if a YouTuber has an sEnglish accent, a lot of times I have to switch the video because it annoys me so much. I like the old-fashioned (not sure what it's called) English accent on women, though. It's not harsh, wish I knew the name of it.
And yes, mid-Atlantic all the way, I wish it were a regular accent used today.

Regardless I used to live out in the country for a small while and surprisingly I've never really picked up any accent, though i admit I'm a sucker for a Valley girl accent. Something about it is just really appealing, like there's always a story to be told by someone with that voice.

I wouldn't call this an unpopular opinion, but a polarizing one. Capitalism is a disgusting system which feeds off the worst of the worst, riles us all against each other, and reduces our lives to an illusion of significance and freedom. The future where we all work together, motivated not by greed and money, but by something beautiful and noble, may seem unrealistic for some, but it is one I want to fight for.

>>7749> worst of the worst, riles us all against each other> beautiful and noble, may seem unrealistic for some, but it is one I want to fight forNot really the best choice of words imo. Warm and fuzzy though the ideas of Marx may have been, even he acknowledged that we didn't have the technology to make it happen,
and we still don't.Until all of the raw material processing (lumberjacking, mineral mining etc) is fully automated, and we have fusion to power these devices, and automated mass production and repair of said devices, it's a nice idea but it's not realistic. What beautiful, noble motivation is going to make anyone want to go into a career maintaining sewers and unblocking your toilet?
Personally I prefer to think of it as building a better tomorrow, rather than fighting for a change that we aren't able to make.
Sage'd because it's neither an unpopular nor a polarizing opinion, it's just a wishful ideal, like a caveman thinking "it sure would be nice if I could start a fire with a lighter instead of having to bang rocks together".

Having the two separate threads like I describe eliminates the fuzzy middle ground where the arguments seem to start, and it also allows anyone who wants to have a debate a space to do so, but sanely without bullshit troll-like responses.

However, if you made the debate thread here and said "These are the rules" 90% of us are intelligent enough to obey them without overhanging consequences because we understand that honoring the rules is the polite thing to do, if we want to have a nice community.
The other 10% of posters are the problematic idiots who insist on squatting and taking a shit on everything good, despite consequences.

That's why a debate thread would need both strict rules and guidelines for posting to let potential posters know what is expected of them and their responses. We'd have to design official debate guidelines and have something like a googledoc with all the pertinent "How to make an effective argument" info.
The sheer amount of effort required would act as a deterrent on its own, because a lot of posters just wouldn't be interested in putting in the work.

I have nothing against really fat/thin people and it makes me feel like I'm around immature posters whenever I see that kind of vitriol on online forums like lc. It takes me back to high school where nobody had anything else to hold over others. So as I age, seeing grown people be so nitpicky about looks gives me the impression that they don't have a lot going for themselves.
I mean there's so many more relevant flaws that makes someone a piece of shit! Like being mean-spirited or self-centered. Being a mooch or a malingerer. Being spoiled. Just to name a few. It makes me so mad how a person's behavior and actions are more than enough for discussion, but that takes the backseat so some anons can feel better about themselves by shitposting physical flaws for an evening.
Also, whenever they say shit like "Haha x cow has tiny boobs she must be so insecure!", they're not just saying that about the person in question. They might as well be saying that to any lurking poster that it applies to. And I'm no saint for it either because I know it's easier to lock in on the physical flaws of someone that I dislike, but I'm much more aware of the things I post these days for it.

I previously lived somewhere where Asians were considered the standard of beauty, mostly held office in government and were business owners, and were given preferential hiring because of family connections. I never believed in the idea white privilege because I had never experienced it. However, since moving to the USA I am really shocked by how white people generally act compared to people of other races. They seem more likely to have an "everyone out for themselves" attitude, a sense of entitlement in how they treat customer service people, and their children are often very misbehaved and act immaturely. I don't know if this is what middle-class/wealthy American culture in general is like regardless of race or if this is what people mean by "white privilege" but it's kind of s culture shock to me.

Anonymous 8263
>>8245Race is a social construct and as such "white" is less about skin color or ethnicity and more about social status anyways. Although fewer between, you can find technically non-white people who come from a background of equal privilege and socioeconomic standing, and I think it's not unfair to generally consider those people white, despite their apparent ethnicity, as long as their family lineage was far enough separated from the typical lineage for their "race".
Like, there are some rich mexican republicans who have really racist ideas and literally consider themselves white. So, even if their skin is a bit darker and they're technically not from a place we'd usually consider to be white, they still count.
I probably wouldn't really take that stance publicly against any individuals especially since I'm also white, but I think it's fine to generalize about "white people" in a way that includes some technically non-white people too.
