>>399661Samefag but I don’t mean undies like boxers, I cannot wrap my head around the idea of just wearing what is essentially shorts under your clothes, specifically undies like this are extremely comfy - I can easily get them to be high waist and flattering if I size up and they nicely show off my ass without the entire thing being exposed to the elements
And I thought it was an unpopular opinion since a lot of women now wear gstrings/things 24/7 and I cannot imagine subjecting myself to that kind of discomfort just in case there’s a possibility of me getting fucked; maybe I’m an outlier but I’m going to be naked when getting a good dicking anyway so what’s the point of the discomfort of lingerie unless it’s put on just before and specifically for foreplay

No. 402179

There can be implied sex in movies/tv without showing pornographic scenes. Heck, I would be less mad if there was the occasional small sex scene as long as it wasn’t objectifying the woman and male-gazey (but that’s pretty much impossible in this society)

and torture scenes shown in full with super male-gaze POVs and women naked for nothing else than decoration

>>402174Yes, that is the biggest reason (but not the whole reason) and that’s why GoT is so shitty.

>>402459The show may have become garbage in the last several seasons but that doesn't change the fact that the reasons you and her are angry about it are completely insane.
Let's breakdown just how stupid what you've been saying is. You assert that the ONLY reason men watch got is because of the sex scenes. An episode of Game of Thrones is like an hour long, there are 10 episodes in each season, and maybe like 2 or 3 sex scenes per season. You seriously believe men are sitting through 10 hours of political drama and sword fights every season just to see 30 seconds of topless girls in the occasional sex scene? In an era where actual porn is freely available online? Sorry but you're a moron. If you had said Game of Thrones was bad because the writing is terrible ever since they ran out of books to adapt from I'd happily agree. But you've clearly never even watched it and are just popping a blood vessel because you heard it has sex scenes so in your mind you decided that's what the entire show was.
And again, what about all the women who watch Game of Thrones? Got no answer for why they watch it? What about the gay male sex scenes? I'll bet you never even knew it had those because they didn't fit into the narrative you wanted to be outraged about.

I’ve watched the show and enjoyed it but it’s still a shit show, I won’t be finishing this last season even though that’s not really information you need
You’re also acting like hyperviolence and sex/nudity aren’t exactly what men love to watch so I’m not sure what your point is - it doesn’t get much more male gazey than GoT. This is only my third comment on this whole debate, you’ve been (unsurprisingly) talking to multiple anons.

>>402592Japanese people aren't all Asians and Asians aren't all Japanese people. This doesn't even work because the mongolodic races of non-Japanese people aren't particularly successful, Korea was known as a dirt poor country just a few decades ago and their immigrants didn't have any positive standing in the U.S. Vietnamese, Thais, ect aren't regarded with the same fascination and admiration Japanese people are.
Japan and Korea are exalted by Western society in general because they have been funded and supported by America. If Iran or Iraq were chosen to be the same thing by America Middle Eastern immigrants would be seen with the same exaltation. It's all politics and shit orchestrated mostly by the U.S which surprise surprise, is mostly the influence of racial relations and how things are viewed racially for the past century.

No. 402762
>>402725>>402730Anime characters don't have a set race. The reason they "look white" to westerners is because the whole concept of exaggerated Asiatic features comes from outsider's gaze. To Japanese people, their own faces are what's "normal". They have no reason to believe their eyes are super squinty and their skin is yellow, because their society doesn't think of Caucasian features or skintones as the standard human. They think of themselves that way.
That's how come characters can have blue/green/purple hair, red/yellow/orange/pink eyes, etc and still be seen as Japanese by Japanese audience. It's not a matter of realism, it's just aesthetically pleasing representations of characters. There's no need to exaggerate their features. They'll read as Japanese because the piece of media is made by and for Japanese people, usually in a Japanese setting where the characters will have Japanese names. There's no confusion for them around that sort of thing whatsoever, because it's their own media.
Aside from that, though, even if they did see themselves with all those hyper-exaggerated "Asian" features seen in the west, why would anyone purposely draw racial caricatures of themselves? I feel like only Americans are obsessed with making their cartoons as ugly as possible with gigantic noses or lips or ears or whatever en masse, lmao.

I honestly enjoy when artists create OCs of their preferred race in their favorite anime universe more than racebending, especially when they complain there's too many "white" characters. Nothing is stopping you from presenting new ideas. I see people do this with non anime too, like I saw people try to Kickstart a wizard series and they marketed it as a "Black version of Harry Potter" like okay there's already enough Harry Potter shit in the world, we don't need the same exact story but with racebending. I WANT an original wizard series with Black and brown characters out there, but so many people are focused on redesigning the light skinned characters instead of adding something new. I've noticed a lot of SJW fanartists who do these kinds of racebending designs don't have dark skin either so it makes you think.
Maybe OT but when I was a child, I loved Digimon and there were no Digidestined that looked like me, and I'm sure a lot of people didn't look like Yolei or college age Mimi either or even Tai with his stupid spiky hair. So naturally I made a drawing of a Digimon version of me, dark skinned girl with a Palmon by my side who hung out with the rest of the characters.

Non-white people are certainly not having white people as the "default" in their minds but still are registering these characters as white, why is that?
I don't personally view these characters, for the most part, to have generally West european characteristics, I find them resembling something more between Asian and White characteristics, looking more Eurasian or Happa than either race, but that's just my interpretation. East Asian and Caucasian races aren't similar enough visually to have them be confused for each other, though. Middle Easterners and West Europeans are phenotypically more similar, and no one confuses them together generally.
>>402765Yeah because it's tooootally only due to blonde hair and blue eyes, and again, people on lolcow love making up arguments and putting words in the other anon's mouths despite the actual thing not being said.

You are not immune to propaganda.
>I don't personally view these characters, for the most part, to have generally West european characteristics, I find them resembling something more between Asian and White characteristics, looking more Eurasian or Happa than either race, but that's just my interpretation. There's nothing inherently white about them, they're just cartoons that don't look like anyone. No one looks like pic related, it's literally just a pale-skinned drawing.
You're correct on the interpretation part. Any race you see in them is your own interpretation, and it's not really the animators' or character designers' responsibilities to try and get into foreigner's heads and decipher what they may think of something so subjective.
It's like drawing a smiley face with two dots for eyes and a smile, and someone saying "Umm it looks white, why doesn't it have horizontal slits for eyes or big-ass nostrils or huge lips and dark skin? Sorry it's just white :/". It's a drawing, lmao.

Black people in the US have their own music, media, that mostly influences them, East Asian and South Asians have their own music and media from their home countries they tune into, Hispanics and Mexicans have the same thing, ect. You are seriously underestimating how people can grow to see their own as the default in Western countries, it's not just third world countries that are like that.
>The other partNot even all anime is stylized like that, though, and some anime has more realistic features than the rest.. you are doing yourself a disfavor with this argument. There's plenty of anime styles where the bridge of the nose is apparent, where the shape of the face is more than just a shapeless blob and there's an apparent lip and eye shape.
>>402775I agree while so many anime styles are so removed from reality like it's not even made by people who are around people and it clearly shows (and it's also reflected in its writing and plots but thats OT lmao) it's not like it's the only anime styles being used.

Who do you think is in charge of the lion's share of its pop culture, and who will that pop culture pander the hardest to, if not the majority?
Anyway, that's not even the topic at hand. The issue is that you're interpreting drawn symbols (in this case, large eyes and bright colors) to have a specific race, and projecting that interpretation on the artists by force. It's not sensible.
Most anime, especially the most popular series, are detached from realism and have the significant markers in that image. There's a swathe of content criticizing/mocking anime for chronic sameface.
If we're going to go "not all anime" and discuss stylization, we're going to end up having to break down
which artists on which shows and their respective styles you're even talking about, and then it will become a discussion on what image that particular artist must have of different races. So, who and what do you mean? You said "anime" as a whole, not certain shows with realistic styles.

The United States is not like it's the EU. It has a completely different cultural landscape and it's more than a "white western" land as you're trying to push it as.
It's not sensible? It's human nature to try to find identification in something, there are people who find identification in anthromorphic animals cartoons lmao.

You can sneer and call people retards all you want since you're getting personally annoyed about anime shit, but it's not going to change how most people think like. Even if it's not technically true, and yeah I agree anime people actually don't look like any humans, it's still symbol and an icon and how most people regard it. What we know for a fact is the anime humans don't look black, or mestizo, or middle easterner, or most groups in the world tbh. Most people know that, so they draw conclusion they are closer to white west european features based on their physical proximity.

>>402788Your whole post kind of just veers from the original point. I don't really care about America, I just think it's weird that you assume something with a heavily stylized appearance is automatically white, and you hold fast to this assumption like it has some literal grip in reality. The true reason behind this mindset is known only to you and others that share it, but plenty of other people around the world don't have that kind of conviction, including the Japanese (aka the original artists) themselves.
You're free to interpret drawn images however you personally like, but expect people to call you silly if you project your own interpretations when they have no factual basis. If a character is drawn as [x], but
you think it looks like [y], is it really your place to insist whoever drew [x] is the problem for not drawing things as
you see them?
It's like you're racebending, but in your head, then getting upset about that racebent image that you made up and making weird comments about the artist having internalized racism for not conforming to your opinions or something.
>most people>you my friend are the abnormalityDo you have any source to back up this claim that your opinion represents that of "most people"? Because so far, at least two people are saying you're wrong. I didn't call you retarded, I just think you seem weird and obsessive over cartoons.
>What we know for a fact is the anime humans don't look black, or mestizo, or middle easterner, or most groups in the world tbh. To you, because clearly, anything that's not exaggeratedly, obviously [x] can only be [y]. That's your own issue.
>Most people know that, so they draw conclusion they are closer to white west european features based on their physical proximity.There is no "physical proximity" on a general basis, since you said yourself that not all anime is stylized the same.

>>402799I didn't say it was only Americans, you're still making up things in your head (like how you claimed I called you a "retard") and getting defensive about them. Funny how you claimed I'm "just making up shit", but that's basically all you've been doing.
>Why are you assuming I'm "upset about it?"Because you're getting aggressive and sound very emotional.
>Weren't you the one going on about "Westernfags" and whatnot? Who the fuck else is the opinion supposed to come from, the sky?How does that equate to "most people" by any stretch of the imagination? My point was that the majority of the people making these claims are from the west, not that everyone thinks that way. And do you really think most people are from the US or Europe (aka the west)? Your world must be very small, if so.
>..Because I'm discussing something in a discussion forum?Because of the way you act, and the fact that you were buttblasted enough to call Japan a "proxy American Eastern country".
>I don't even watch anime and I barely watch cartoons.And it kind of shows because of the odd, incorrect blanket racial statements you make about it. You can't even pinpoint which anime you're talking about, and when examples are posted, you say "Not all anime!" (without ever specifying which anime you mean).
>I noticed people like you like to project others as being obsessive and weird just for having an opinion and that's strange as fuck to me in general."People like me"? And it's not projection, considering you've pretty much exemplified that I was right. You're acting obsessive and weird, especially for someone who "doesn't even watch anime".
> I couldn't care less about this but the topic brought up and I'm discussing it. Then why are you still arguing, and went so far that you accused me of insulting you somehow?
>People like you act like you have to think about something 24/7 to seem remotely "engaged" into something on here like you people are far removed from any reality or common sense.This is actual projection, you're really sitting here and trying to insist that cartoons are inherently white. That's actually being removed from reality and common sense.
>So they look like nothing?Re-read this entire conversation. It's been explained multiple times by several people, you just don't want to accept that a random drawing with two eyes and a mouth does not automatically look white.
I don't think you're entirely rational, and I'm bored of this, so enjoy your last (You).
In conclusion: Anime characters have no race. It's up to you how you see them, but there's a reason a Japanese artist looks at an anime girl and doesn't think "white woman", but "Japanese woman". Kind of odd to think you know better than he does about his own art, but do you.

>>400075this straight up isn't true aside from certain brands. look at the ingredients. whatever is listed first is the densest. so if you see "chicken" as the very first listed, you've got a healthy enough brand (though i'd recommend wet food as the primary food source just because it's got less fillers and helps the cat get moisture.)
some brands begin with "corn gluten meal" (which is not as bad as it sounds; it's the most nutritious and digestible part of corn) which you don't want as the very first, densest ingredient.
overall, caring about ingredients beyond this starts going into GMO panic territory. unless your cat has a food allergy, you can relax about the kibble. but again, try to provide wet as the main source with kibble supplementing it through either the day or night (never free feed.)

There's no reason why artists who make beautiful people have to keep making the same faces over and over again, the face of the girl made isn't actually considered a particularly ideally beautiful face by current contemporary standards anyways, yet artists are still stuck on pale skinned fairy type extreme baby faced types of beauties like it's the only ones that exist.

And it can't be fixed! My worst fucking nightmare. Something like 60% of women get vaginal tears and 10% get anal tears.
It's messed up that the moment you tie yourself to a man for 18+ years by having his kid, your body is likely to suffer all these issues and you can't escape his judgement and pressure from him to have sex, lose weight etc. I could handle weight gain and stretchmarks and even problems down there etc if I was single, but I'd have a mental breakdown with a man breathing down my neck expecting me to be ready and willing post partum.

They all think they are prime marriage material and women should be salivating all over their dicks despite their looks, and the worst part is women encourage them by caring about their opinions and getting upset about the statements they make.
I've seen fat divorced guys pushing 50 thinking they have a chance with a fit, successful girl in her early 30s and not at any point thinking whether or not they deserve to be with someone like that, whereas Lena Dunham is told she doesn't deserve to have an attractive man play her fictional boyfriend because she's fat and ugly.

No. 403397
>>403385I'll never understand it. It's like men don't see themselves. They're so comfortable bashing women's looks. The only explanations I can think of are that they're either really deluded enough to think they're at least 6/10s (and the whole "the wall" cope they have fits in with that - they'll RP that decrepit, balding, fat 50 year olds are handsome, while 30 year old women with lines under their eyes are hags), or believe women's only real value is their appearance, and that they themselves have something else to offer in spite of their own ugliness.
The funny thing about the second thing is that even if you follow that reductive, shitty, line of thought, usually, these men have nothing to offer at all. No intellect, no kindness, no empathy, no huge life accomplishments, not even money. They start screeching "Gold digger! Shallow! Normie! Roastie wants a Chad!!!

Ugly men and even just guys with one major physical flaw are almost always unhinged and immediately want to whine about how insecure and unwanted they are which is exactly why they're in that spot.

There are probably other white characters who are far more minor. Point is, there are plenty of white Death Note characters. If they wanted a white-centric adaption so bad, they could've told the story primarily from one of their viewpoints, or even just from L's, then veered into the main one with Light as it went on. That would've been an interesting way of storytelling, even.
Instead, they just made an adaption that was bad on all fronts. They can't even say the haters are "racist", because they themselves refused to cast anyone Japanese (or even Asian) as the main characters.

Black people don't look like anime. Sometimes an extremely pretty young girl (of any race) with a perfectly childlike face can look like anime. Generally characters look like idealized blobs with just enough features to suggest the presence of a human face because tiny features with big eyes are as childish and therefore cute as possible.
Something like pic related is obviously not meant to be Japanese but let's be real, you can change their hair and eye and skin to be more Asian and you would never guess they were meant to be another race based on their face alone. Because 'pretty young girl' is universal in Japanese beauty standards.

My unpopular opinion is that The Avenger movies aren't that good. I like some of the individual super hero stories like Captain America, Captain Marvel and Black Panther, and Thor ragnarok, but the Big BOOM Blockbuster Avenger films are boring and I don't care.

>>403557>the way Japanese people tend to draw Chinese and Korean characters with slits for eyes and themselves with big round eyes is… interesting.IMO, it goes back to the whole thing with stereotypical Asian (or any racial) features coming purely from outsider's gaze.
There are "regular" features (normal, ambiguous features that some westerners assume is automatically white, because white is their idea of regular), and then there are "irregular" features. To separate other races from the assumed default for that given society (in anime's case, that default is Japanese), "irregulars" will often be given more exaggerated features, which is up to the artist. Western cartoonists do the same thing, too.
Sometimes, it's exaggerated shit like
>>403553. Other times, they don't necessarily want to separate their characters by race (as opposed to culture/behavior/clothing), so they don't really give a fuck about drawing racial exaggerations and will just draw the characters to look the same as the rest. One example of this is Shampoo from Ranma. She's Chinese, but she doesn't look like Roy, she looks largely as "anime" as the rest of the cast.
The whole race/anime argument is very subjective and dependent on what specific art styles or shows are being discussed, and that's why I think it always goes in circles. You can't speak generally on this any more than you can speak on how, I dunno, all French films are in black and white or something. It's obviously not true, just a stereotype based on a few examples by uneducated people.
No. 403572
>>403570>featurelessI disagree, typical "pure white"/"Aryan" features are pretty distinct. If this wasn't the case, there'd be absolutely no way to differentiate white people from other races, especially if they just wore a little bit of makeup or got a tan.
All races are pretty distinctive IMO. The difference is that you won't notice the features that make them stand out as often, or consider them "distinctive", if that's what's normalized and "regular-degular" to you.
Funnily enough, I've seen people say the same thing about both black and Asian people having "featureless" faces because their faces sometimes aren't as pointy or chiseled. It really is a subjective thing.

Section 8 housing should have stipulation regarding general attitude/behavior in it. If you are literally given a house for free [or very inexpensively] you should be fucking grateful, and treat the neighborhood you live in nicely. If you can't [keeping your neighbors up with fighting and screeching constantly, letting your big-ass scary autistic nearly-adult son roam the neighborhood and scream and break shit, etc.] then you lose that unit and must be moved to one that can provide the services needed. People who live in condominiums, especially, should have a collective say over whether or not a unit may be rented out as section 8. We are not a fucking state hospital/psych ward, sorry. We paid for these units, specifically to live in peace, and if you can't do that [especially after being given every opportunity to communicate and receive help from your neighbors] then you can get the fuck out.

I actually feel like people on both sides (extreme liberals and /pol/) exaggerate interracial relationships. Most people, especially white people, are more attracted to their own kind and would prefer the ease of dating someone of their own kind. Liberals exaggerate it to seem progressive, /pol/ exaggerate it to make it seem like a bigger deal than it actually is and recruit more people to their "cause".
And I think being on the internet exposes you to the weird-extremes of anything.

And jfl about Asians. Real reason is that Asians, coming from a different culture, are hyper-aware of the mainstream. They also understand that embracing the mainstream, which is anti-white leftist shit, is the way to succeed in the US at this time. High rates of university attendance compound this problem.
You can see this with Sarah Jeong, who exclusively fucks white men, but is vocal about the anti-white stuff. And look at the position she was rewarded with for doing so.

Kpop is super damaging to everyone that consumes it, especially asians. A lot of kpop fans normalize plastic surgery and body dismorphia and all of the youtube influences get ps in korea because they are either inspired by korean pop culture or want to be a part of it. Kpop fans seem to worry about their looks the most compared to other fandoms, they (the ones i've come across and seen on yt) drop all of their money on kpop merch, k fashion, kmakeup,k skincare and sometimes plastic surgery. I grew up and live in a very asian city, 14 years ago no one worried about having white paper skin and a perfect face, now almost every asian in my city is trying to look like a kpop star and getting all these plastic surgeries done. Kpop does more damage on asians because it brain washes them into thinking these unattainable standards of beauty are normal and is the only attractive standard, at least here in the west we are opening up to different ideas of beauty.

And there's always a store within walking distance or at least a farmers market of some kind that isn't a big walmart type building or a mall.
And in the US services like Blablacar don't exist (or at least didn't back then) because of the whole "stranger danger" mentality. I would definitely want a car if I lived in that environment.

There are some edgy bands, but they also sing about cannibalism and satanism.
The vast majority of metal bands are alright in that regards and do not objectify women, unlike the most top chart songs. Women regardless if they're the singer or just part of the show, are portrayed as a piece of meat. I'm not even going to talk about the quality of songs, but hip hop, rap, k-pop, pop are imo one of the most misogynist genres of music there are in the music industry. They try to mask the nudity and the curse words as empowering but they're anything but. The twerking trend which still hasn't fucking died is absolutely disgusting and dehumanizing.

Currently rewatching Mulan, and honestly Disney catches way too much slack. I feel like they draw different ethnicities quite well - they have visible racial markers that aren’t ugly or offensive and they’re able to still create all their non-white characters with their distinct style. I also don’t understand all the screeching over the women being waifish, it’s really not that big a deal imo. I think movies like Pocahontas, Big Hero 6, Frog Prince and Moana are all good examples of how tastefully they create characters of other races/ethnicities

It's not racist to criticize certain cultural practices, unless you also attack the people born into that culture. Many cultures continue backward traditions, and it should be acknowledged as bad. It doesn't make someone racist to point that out.
And to be honest, you'll literally know the difference when you see it. I don't know why some people play dumb about this. You can say that the continued practice of child marriage in some countries is fucked up without having to call anyone "uncivilized", "savages", "subhuman", etc or make jabs at their skin color. Actual racists literally cannot help themselves. Even when they try their hardest not to say such things, it's still obvious in subtext and passive-aggressive. You can absolutely see the shit leaking through their pores.
Meanwhile, people who just have a moral code pretty much never bring race into things, and it doesn't even feel "off" when they say it. I'm sick of people conflating the two types, it just shuts down social progress on an international scale.

>parties, drugs and the ability to run away from home still existPeople don't dance in parties anymore like they used to do in the 70's and 80's since most young people decide staying against a wall or huddled in a group of their friends texting own their phone is more fun than dancing. If they do decide to "dance" it will be a few minutes twerking. There's no actual dance genre or subcultures of people like there was in the 1970's either. You have to pretty much go to specialized parties to get dancing and these can be few and far in between depending on where you live.
The average street price for many drugs has gone up while the presence of impurities in more drugs is than ever now, many of those said impurities being extremely harmful and causing 10x more fatal effects than the original drug would on its own.
No contest on the rest.
>can also talk to millions of people around the world, buy fun things from other countries without having to go to them, discover all sorts of music, read almost any books, watch anything I want without censorship or waiting for localization, learn new languages for free, take nice quality photos, try all sorts of foodNot to get into a debate between virtual communication vs "irl" communication I prefer the latter by far. Higher technological quality and more freedom is definitely the cornerstone of the 2010s by far though.
>if you get beaten up, raped, harassed or killed by any man or racist person, you at least have a semblance of a chance for justiceEhh, this still can happen, but the way you're sounding it it's like you're acting like the post-Civil Rights/Feminism movements didn't exist during the 70s. They were a very heavy part of subculture in the 1970s and were beginning to affect everything.
>can enjoy all the aesthetics of the past, as well as the new thingsYeah but imo doesn't beat the feeling of coming up and young with new aesthetics surging from that time period in the moment instead of just passively taking it in by browsing it on the internet while your current decade has no definition to it at all.
>can put your art, music and writing into the world without any barriers (the only gain from using the typical process being increased exposure)No contest.
>slimy CEOs and other powerful people who exploit the weak are getting exposed more easily day by dayNo contest.
All the points you bring up is about life being more comfortable now, but you have to realize us being more plugged into the internet and being detached from the real world has its very real, bad, consequences too. The biggest upside to the 1970s and 1980s is that you could feel actually part of a real life community back then and everything was submerging from that time period just from the sheer innovation and creativity than come from that time. The 2010's has that in little.

Black people have barely progressed since the 70's, we still have no generational wealth, many of our men are incarcerated and our culture has actually gotten worse in every way for the past 40 years. There's actually a new movement called #AADOS because of, in part, how shitty our people fell off from the strides we were making in the 60s and 70s, lmao. Ofc that has to do with a lot of the government policies & stuff that affected many urban communities in the 1980's, but yeah.
I have grandparents and parents that grew up or were adults in the 1970s in a majority- black city so I don't need articles to tell me how bad it was. I think saying it was only good for white men is seriously undervaluing the communities of blacks, women, and gays back then..

Because a lot of people assume every black person they see with a non-African accent must be American black people fail to understand that many blacks who get Affirmative Action/ are in high level programs/ get scholarships and such are not the actual descendants of slaves. They are those who's parents came to America in the 60s onward.
Thus they never dealt with generational poverty, housing discrimination, lost dignity, disrespect on the scale that AADOS have.
AADOS movement is to bring awareness to the issue of Black Americans who have legitimate ties to the country being disenfranchised and ignored while never being re-compensated. Every other ethnic group was, African Americans never were. While people, usually naive liberals, will put who they see as black (who aren't actually AADOS) on a pedestal to say "look how far we've progressed in race relations", when nothing has actually changed for those affected.

I don't know what you consider a 'sexually repressed' household to be, but to me that's shaming a child for their body or puberty matters or their (future) sex life. A lack of dialogue about sex aside from safety isn't repression, it's just a parenting style that allows their children some privacy and doesn't confront them with something most would not be comfortable discussing with family. It's not wrong to be more open but it's not dangerous or bad if they aren't.

>>405782>it's just that it would be traumatically embarrassing if my parents ever gave me a fucking vibrator and I'd rather struggle the rest of my damn life with a hairbrushFair, but to add some context to my post: My opinion was in reply to a fake story shitpost someone made about a dad discovering his preteen looking at sex toys on the internet. The story goes that he slams the girl's laptop in her face thinking that she's trying to buy sex toys, grounds her, and then gets pissed off when the mom un-grounds her and even suggests they buy the daughter a sex toy like a vibe after talking to the daughter.
Anyway, the post is set up to make the mother look like a sex-posi wench and to give good boy points to the father for being a prick.
Sexual repression to me is fearing negative consequences for wanting to discuss sexual topics or confessing sexual actions.
In my house, there was no such thing as dialogue besides what I learned in health class and being told "NO" which did me no favours later on.
When my mom caught me with a household object once, she shouted "DON'T STICK THINGS IN YOUR VAGINA!" as rather it shouldn't have been concerning that I had nothing vaginally appropriate as an alternative and doing something risky.
The privacy argument is fair to a point but I don't think avoiding the discussions altogether is very good parenting. I think it can even be neglectful.
Another example: If I found out my teenager was having sex, I don't give a fuck if she'd be embarrassed about the subject but I would be pushing condoms and whatever birth control she'd be willing to take. Parents who choose to ignore their preteen and teenager's sexual activities tend to wind up with pregnant daughters.

It's a fine line to walk imo. Ideally you could have a frank talk about anything to do with sex and masturbation with kids if your concern was their health and happiness, but realistically most wouldn't be open to it. Things to do with safety and health and self esteem should be discussed whether the kid likes it or not, but some sex topics like masturbation and what feels good or kinks or whatever cross a line where it's just too embarrassing for them to be receptive to a conversation about it. Most just have to learn those things on their own, it's not like they lack resources with the internet these days.

I do agree with the other anon that parents should be open to talking about sex and personal issues with their children because ignorance does more harm than embarrassment.
My sister is a teenager and she does want to talk to me about sex and puberty sometimes. I don't mind doing this for her. It wasn't that long ago that it was happening to me, so I understand how she feels and I think it's better for her to able to talk about it with someone that she trusts. I draw a very clear line about what is and isn't acceptable to discuss. I do my best to give her good advice and truthful information but I do not ever talk to her about my own personal sexual experiences.

I mean it would be weird to just randomly gift her one, but if she were open about it with me it would only have to stay between us. I'm not an uber sex-posi kinksterfag, but it's just masturbation and most people start doing it in their teens. I'd rather she use a vibe than have unprotected sex or make stupid, hormonal decisions in relationships and get taken advantage of.
>Not every girl nor woman gets off on fingers. Yeah tbh I rubbed my clit and used a hairbrush when I first started. Fingering felt too weird and not really enjoyable.

>>405895ive got a young daughter. sex talk is coming up and im nervous, but i know that i have to set a good foundation in hopes that she wont become ashamed of herself and whats going on and the feelings she will have because of just being a human.
my family was super christian, never had a sex talk and was of course ashamed when i would masturbate or think of sex because i was going to burn in hell forever. but fuck that if i want my kid to feel the same way. the best thing i could do for, i think, is to let her know that she will have these kinds of thoughts and feelings and thats human. id much rather my daughter ask about birth control and a safer way to masturbate than grabbing something that could damage her.

>>406019I mean you can get desensitized, but it's reversible if you stop masturbating this way for a little bit.
It's kinda fucked up that you'd worry about a girl "damaging" her clit by masturbating, that's all. I know I spent my teen and early adulthood unable to masturbate to complexion because I didn't have access to a vibrator, so it can go both way.

>>406030samefag but on the subject of buying sex toys for your teenager ;
I definitely think it's not okay for parents to randomly buy a dildo for their daughter, if she really wants to buy herself a dildo she can do so online with the money she made working a summer job or smth, if you're not a weird intrusive parent who open their child's mail she should be able to get whatever sex toy she wants to.

Maybe for you it was mental, just like with pornsick men not being able to get off is mental.
No. 406089
>>406084So maybe you just get off in a specific way and there's nothing wrong with that.
There's a lot of women who can't get off with penetration alone and need the aid of toys. It's really not weird or unusual, contrary to what men would have you think because they want you to believe only a penis should be adequate.
No. 406093
>>406091nothing wrong with wanting to come from piv sex since more orgasms = added pleasure. having the ability to have both vaginal and clitoral orgasms must be great, instead of one or the other.

>>406091I at no point said that only PIV should get me off, you guys are putting words in my mouth.
For years absolutely nothing but blasting my cunt with water could get me off, no matter what I tried nothing came even remotely close - it took years of abstaining from it before sexuality bounced back and I’m finally able to enjoy other sexual acts as well
And for the last time I’m talking about more than just PHYSICAL desensitisation, the mental aspect is also extremely important. And regardless it is so inappropriate to buy your kids sex toys. Educate them about sex and masturbation there’s absolutely no reason to provide them with sex aids.
Inb4 using the word cunt apparently makes me a scrot.

>some cheapasses that want you to work 10 hours per day for 500€/month and will fire you at the drop of a hat.Was that for internships? Companies either love or hate interns because they expect them to work exactly as much as normal employees for way less than the minimum wage with no proper training even though the point is to train interns in the first place) or they're so cheap they only want to "hire" them for free. I had to look for an internship months ago to graduate and I had many companies refusing to hire me or even refusing an interview because they wanted an intern for only 1 month or a bit less than 2 months. If they hire an intern for 2 months or more in my country companies are legally required to pay them and it seems like 500€ a month for someone working full-time and getting no benefits like holidays and healthcare is way too much asked. In that sense I've noticed big companies are the least worst though.

Obviously Semenya has a different intersex condition, likely alpha-5-reductase deficiency, unlike the woman in video who has complete androgen insensitivity syndrome. People with alpha-5-reductase deficiency are closer to male than female even though they are intially raised as girls due to their external genitalia looking female.
>>407210See video attached, some people with XY chromosomes appear entirely female externally and do not have any virilization due to a complete insensitivy to androgens.

I don't care as much when I find out a woman has murder fantasies or gross fetishes, because unlike men, there's a pretty good chance she knows it's bad and won't mentally twist herself into a pretzel trying to find reasons that it should be seen as acceptable or normal. Meanwhile, scrotes all over the world are obsessed with trying to force the world to accept their disgusting proclivities, whether it's through violent pornography becoming mainstream, fetishization of mentally ill women (eg BPD obsession and "daddy issues = great sex xdd"), victim-blaming, "MAP activism", etc.
Like…even all the dd/lg chicks who won't shut up about their "daddies" are largely just male-aligned, mentally damaged women who were either groomed IRL or online (or both) being egged on by attention from the same type of men I mentioned before.

probability and he's probably more likely to go with me because he's ugly af compared to the others etc. Deluded thinking that then boosts up these ugly cunts egos and they actually mistake attention for being attractive and celebrated on looks.
It can happen to girls too that hang out with the social rejects and start getting attention for being in constant close proximity from orbiters and not realising convenience and her availability plays into people pursuing her.
Essentially two attention seeking cunts seek attention off each other for validation while still craving more and more which is why the naked mole rat has been soliciting nudes from minors.

>>408936What you're suggesting is functionally worthless because it doesn't actually erase any of the issues relating to sex and gender.
It's basically you saying "Let's just censor a degree of descriptive language except in special cases and call it a day". All it can do is result in confusion in daily life.
The only way she/her or he/him pronouns cause problems in themselves is basically when someone who's objectively not a woman, but a man (or vice-versa), but wants to be called one for emotional reasons, is pissy because other people aren't calling him/her what they want to be called. The "IT'S MA'AM" video is a pretty good example.
Otherwise, pronouns have basically been the least of anyone's concerns. To be honest, the moment you divorce pronouns from objective sexual reality and make them into some "My gender identity is…" thing is when all sense flies out the window.

I absolutely agree about people thinking it's "quirky and silly" when they're constantly late and wasting my precious time when I have to add an extra 15 minutes to my schedule just standing around doing nothing. Fuck these people. I take the time and effort to plan out my day so I can be there when I'm supposed to, why the fuck isn't the other party required to do the same? Is it some sort of a power trip to them to know that everyone's waiting just for them?

>>409436That's the thing. Cosplay IS weird.
Outside of the internet and nerd culture it's not normal. Most adults don't find it normal. In fact, most adults even find discomfort in other adults dressing up for Halloween in a serious way. People might throw on a themed t-shirt and headband but most adults DO NOT get completely decked out.
It is an odd hobby just like model training or any other non-productive thing.
What's even stranger to me is that people will literally put themselves into debt for it. Back when I was in college I worked part-time at a factory and there was a girl there who literally lived paycheck-to-paycheck but would go to all these conventions and show us photos of her shitty China-made costumes she was constantly buying.
Every person I've met IRL who's been into cosplay has been absolutely weird and socially maladjusted. Look at the famous cosplayers… they're all weird too. If that's the "pinnacle" of success in the hobby, then yeah, it's fucking weird.

thought it would be easier because it is more low stakes, as you said it's just typing, even if I embarrass myself I can just leave and everyone will forget about it, but I just can't, have written and deleted many a message.
tbf I have similar issues irl, I'm ok with 1 on 1 convos but as soon as it's a group, even of people I'm kinda familiar with, I get stressed and quiet and unsure of how to contribute. does not apply to family and like friends from way back when obvi.

I can interrupt a existing circlejerk with a random topic.
half the time circlejerks happen cuz people are bored, want something to talk about, but unsure of what to talk about.
one thing I do, is just link an article and ask a question. most of the time baits people into a convo I care about lol.

>>410829Yeah, shit sucks. My mum is vegan and bless her, she tries so hard to cook food that is both yummy and healthy, but it's always bland as a natural result of removing everything that makes food taste good (both animal products + unhealthy ingredients). I think long time vegans just straight up forget what good food tastes like and get used to mediocre substitutes.
There are a few exceptions though, pic related are a good substitute for sausage rolls. Probably because sausage rolls aren't great to begin with.

Anons need to consider that vegans don't go vegan because they hate the taste of meat and cheese. I don't know where you guys are finding vegans that subsist mainly on mockmeats, granted I believe you, but I don't see ones like that very often. Anyway, mockmeats are a pretty easy way to get in high quality protein. When vegan restaurants primarily serve vegan versions of foods traditionally made with animal products, it's worth noting that it is usually a treat and something that isn't easy to make at home. Most defaultly vegan dishes are very easy to make at home.

>>410829That's because vegan/vegetarian food in restaurants is absolutely fucking awful. A block of raw tofu with some puree next to it and some asparagus artistically placed on the top probably looks great for the chef's instagram page but nobody would actually eat that. I've had plenty of shit doughnuts recently because they're trendy atm and a shop has sprung up on every street corner, doesn't mean I hate doughnuts now. Flavour doesn't come from a steak or a block of tofu, it comes from herbs, spices, sauces and veggies. A chef that can't season something isn't a chef, it's just someone heating something up for you.

It's just so hard when they've insulted me first, or even twist my words for the sake of the argument.

My unpopular opinion is that I don't want to have children.
Though I feel like whenever I come across people who share this opinion, they have it for reasons different from me.
For me, it's all about the pregnancy. The more I hear about what it's actually like (especially from women who actually WANTED kids, so I doubt they're trash-talking it just ~because~) the more it terrifies me.
It's straight up body-horror to me. The prospect of having my midsection deform, having my thinking altered, possibly having my vagina ruptrue - it seems like straight out of a horror movie. The thought of having my body expand basically by itself with no possibility of stopping it makes me want to die. Everything about it sounds like what you'd imagine having a worm or alien or something inside your body would be like.

I feel like game/anime/comic, or any un-respected art mediums, fandom have this horrible inferiority complex that makes them over analyze everything and/or encourage series that are just '2deep4you'.
Like comics tried to get themselves taken seriously by doing the whole 'edgy re-boot' thing, but it just made comics sillier. Many gamers will over analyze or obsess over children's games saying 'this isn't realistic'. Many gamers also confuse deep lore with good writing. Anime/manga fans just go straight into the 'The writer must have gotten there ideas from this obscure philosopher' (I've seen a theory that MHA got inspiration from Freud). It just stops being fun theories and more adults trying to justify why liking stupid shit isn't stupid.It just reaks of insecurity.

Western comics in themselves are absolutely niche in comparison and could only dream of selling so well, even if the franchises are huge. Viz alone has a bigger market share than DC and Marvel (
https://www.google.com/amp/s/goboiano.com/viz-manga-sales-are-destroying-dc-marvel-in-comic-market/amp/), and Viz is for english translated manga in the west. In Japan, it's obviously much bigger.

When any teen girl said "not like other girls" when I was a teenager she usually meant that the media's portrayal of women is that of empty, vapid bimbos obsessed with makeup, fashion and boys and that she was not like that because she had deeper interests. Which yes, most women do, but if you get the same message on TV and in magazines a thousand times, you're bound to start believing it. It was cringy, but sixteen year olds tend to be dumb and cringy. Many of my highschool friends were like that and we obviously were all girls so it's not like they literally meant they are unique and special and not like any other girl on the planet, or that they hate women like some users here interpret it.
I'm tired of pop feminism in general being shoved down my throat as a sneaky marketing tactic and yet another way to shut me up. Like the whole backhanded "girls should support other girls y r wamen so mean to each other uwu" bullshit snakes use when they fuck up and people are calling them out on their shit behaviour. It's become a default to use feminism to shield yourself from any criticism for trashy behaviour and even earn yourself some asspats for being a strong, emancipated woman who don't need no man (except for one to give you money or buy you shoes and trinkets off your amazon wishlist for showing him your titties on cam, you feminist sex worker, you!)

>>411316I never know where to start either. When the MCU barely became a thing I got curious and wen to TV Tropes to see where to start and it confused me even more. At the time for Marvel comics I've seen a lot of people recommending reading the Ultimate Marvel comics as it was a sort of retelling of the main stories but then even more people where outraged that some things were different, that the writers and artists changed in the middle of some of the stories, which made some of the characters OOC and everything became edgier all of a sudden. And I'm not even talking about the fans disagreeing about everything related to Peter Parker and Miles Morales. Basically it was the same confusing mess as the main timeline so I never bothered with it.
I also remember reading the first issues or arc (?) of the Runaways at the library thinking it was a standalone story and all of a sudden you had a bunch of obscure characters from whatever the fuck series (maybe the X-men) that were never properly introduced because the Runaways was actually taking place in the main timeline or and I guess I was supposed to already know them or some shit.

And even if I go there as a tourist and I wouldn't be able to fit in if I were to live there, all the locals consider my siblings and I as part of the population despite acknowledging the differences between locals and people from the diaspora like us. Not gonna say which countries I'm talking about because it's not important here.
For all we know the girl you're talking about has a lot of relatives in Ukraine and is in contact with them, maybe she go visit them on a regular basis, I wouldn't be surprised if her parents raised her to know about her heritage, etc. I don't know if it's possible for people with the American nationality to have another nationality at the same time but if that's the case maybe she has or had the Ukraine nationality as well.

>>411414>wtf is Australian culture My lived experience is different from non bilingual/ dual nationality Australians. The traditions we practice, the media we consume, learning our parents mother tongue before English, being surrounded by other people from the immigrant community, the list goes on - there’s a huge amount that would create a sense of otherness, even having a non-English name has a significant impact on how you fit in.
And just because you yourself don’t really identify with your parents culture doesn’t mean that other immigrants and their children don’t, they’re not trying to be ~different~, it’s fact that their upbringing ostracises them from both cultures. I wouldn’t say this is the case for those later than first gen immigrant children because the lines become much more blurred and not as much is passed on.
You’re getting weirdly angry about a non-issue anon, at the end of the day what does it matter to you if the Ukrainian woman feels a large connection to that part of her upbringing

>>411477It's not even a white girl, it's the same obsessive, inceloid scrote who keeps coming here to racebait. Last time, he sperged out about people not liking PewDiePie, got mocked, then pretended it wasn't him while whining about getting BTFO by multiple people.
He's always so transparent. I'm surprised he learned how to sage.

>>411097>>411091>>411079I find the old Sonic designs cute/appealing and adored the Chao in SA/SA2. For me, the cheesiness when they actually try to personalize him and his bros is entertaining and fun. Normies do seem to put Sonic in that TMNT sort of 90s kid nostalgia throwback…we are all just cursed and irrevocably scarred by the dA furry autists.
The franchise has been in a long, painful process of destruction. Sega seemed to be slipping already in the 90s with all of the spinoffs. And I'm saying that as someone who enjoyed SA. The voice acting was atrocious and the game was funny because the characters acted like complete retards, which figures since they're furry children, I guess. Don't get me started on the fucking animation in the cutscenes.
The gameplay used to be great in Sonic games, and honestly the world was kind of interesting in the environment vs tech interplay.
I am an autist though, to be fair. I just also think other autists with their fucking Sonic OCs made this all worse because furries gravitate toward Sonic since it's accessible entry to furshit. The diehards who won't admit it's cheesy or that there's a ton of bad shit are annoying, too. There are decent/good ideas in Sonic, especially the earlier ones, but the whole series is pretty fucking goofy.

I like how dark circles look.
Maybe it's a leftover from the Edgy Teen Years, but it was odd to read that anons on /g/ were getting surgery and all to get rid of them.
Facial acne scars are also kind of cute to me. Oddly enough with this one I usually hate them on myself, but see them as a trait of interest on others.

>>411515Same anon!
I think birth marks and large scars are neat too. My bf has a giant one down his chest from surgery. I’m so fascinated by it, I love looking at it and touching it.

Houseki no Kuni's animation is overrated. The show looks amazing in the fight scenes, but when it comes to anything else the animation quality halves. The fight scenes also come off as stiff and uncanny to me. I love the show, but people are treating the animation like it's the new studio mad. This praise seems to be coming from 2 groups also.
>Group 1 people who've become so accustomed to the crappy anime coming out now they consider any competent anime 'mind blowing'.
>Group 2 are people who just love shinny stuff.

>>411564My unpopular opinion is that Steel Ball Run is the worst part and JoJo has never recovered. Pls no bully.
My other JoJo hot take is that I miss the muscular character designs of the early parts.

My unpopular opinion is that Jojo is terrible and i don´t get why anyone likes it.
I tried reading the manga and watching the anime, is the worst, the artstyle is always so wonky, everything so ugly looking and gay, the dialogs make no sense. The fandom is like an ironic joke people took to seriously, like reading Sonichu unironically, wtf.

>>411654is not even cute gay, just that burly macho bdsm drag queen kind of trashy gayness. Nothing wrong to be gay but it looks incredibly unapealing for me.
Everyone pretending is a great manga and anime is like everyone pretending the village people is great music, i don´t even have the sense of humour to enjoy it ironically, is not that funny, just lolrandom.

>>411656Ironically it's about as straight as battle shounen gets, considering so many of the main characters get married and/or procreate.
Anyway I get what you're saying in general and it's definitely not for everyone but the weird nonsensical wonkiness is half the appeal. Jojo is for crazy entertaining shit and memes, you can't take it too seriously.

>>411669They can get married and stuff, all the characters they still look like they came out of pink flamingos.
Is too campy for me, if it was only a few lolramdom things here and there, or that the plot goes to weird places organically, but no, is just lolrandom stuff from beginning to end. If its bad on purpose or bad bad, it doesn´t matter, is the same result

>>411653I really don’t understand why it’s so popular. The writing is mediocre (ex. characters randomly being revived, really cliche deaths, lots of generic tropes) and the characters don’t really have much depth and aren’t that interesting. I’m not sure if it was written satirically or if it’s supposed to be taken seriously, since sometimes it gets so ridiculous that it’s humorous. I don’t understand.
No. 411706
>>411701lmao that pic
I think Jojo is meant to be humorous to some extent. It's hard to tell where it starts and stops being funny because it has such a serious veneer, but some of it just cannot be taken seriously and I have to assume it's not meant to be. It's not my favourite but I'd say it's popular because the fights/abilities are creative, the characters tend to be charismatic and memorable in both design and dialogue, and it has miraculously stayed fresh after many decades of publication.

neither men nor women are a monolith were all just individuals that get hurt and and we should be able to help each other

The new Batwoman looks bad but my biggest problem with Batwoman is really the actress they got to play her
Batwoman is supposed have the build of a peak female athlete and is constantly drawn to be taller then other female characters and ruby rose is well kinda of a human toothpick who looks like she would pass out running half a mile
I thought she would at least bulk up a little for the role but nope she's still scrawny
I would have loved for a taller and muscular lady to take the role

>>411817At least with lolita there's a chance someone can recoup their money by selling the stuff.
Nobody wants used cosplay shit unless the craftsmanship is good but even then poorfags will whine about sellers not selling their wares for like $10.
Cosplay was kinda cool to me back before people took it as serious business and made thotting in it profitable.

Eh, most lolitas I know actually do wear most of their clothes out more than once. Another thing is that you don't HAVE to be in a community to enjoy it, most people just stay in their friend groups anyway.

Butterfly is too generic. I've actually heard it being played in a Japanese supermarket and it didn't phase me it was the Digimon theme until the chorus hit.
Also the English Yu-Gi-Oh! opening is the best thing of all time.
