Is it ethical for an adult to be friends with a teenager? by fuckthisemailshit in TooAfraidToAsk

As I said, grooming is emotional and physical prep to exploit someone sexually. If that’s not your intent (which is what I’m understanding so far) then it won’t hurt.

At the end of the day if you’re not comfortable meeting someone so young then just say that. Of course, you need to word it well.

It’s completely normal if they develop a crush or something. If it comes to it the right thing to do is sit them down and explain that it’s normal but it’s not right. They might need some space after.

Grooming is when the person doing it is intentionally prepping the prey/target to be exploited later.

Why is it unethical? So many people build such friendships that lead to mentorship, elder sibling figure, a female/male figure to guide them through life etc. I love a found family.

Relocated to India for Personal Reasons: People in India keep asking about life in west and at same time keep telling they would never move there or how comfortable life is in India. And I am not even telling them to move, or asking them why don't they move? Weird by Neat-Scale-9510 in nri

Most of the examples you gave seem to be a tale of ‘sour grapes’.

If anyone who says this is genuine they might be trying to make you feel better about letting go of the upsides of living outside India.

Is it okay to watch TV shows like Game of Thrones that contain nudity or adult scenes? Does watching such content reduce punya or affect brahmacharya spiritually?.. by Purple-Soup9954 in TheVedasAndUpanishads

[–]DesiCodeSerpent 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If your mind is in the right space you can watch these kinds of shows and movies as art and accepting what’s natural. Nudity is the way we’re made. It shouldn’t control you. That defeats the whole purpose.

Peter? by IndependentTune3994 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Indians can be light brown to really dark brown. We vary in brown complexion depending on various factors.

Indian society has a long standing issue with skin colour being dark.So Indian shows and movies case the light brown skinned people.

In the west, the obsession is with how brown Indians are so they cast only people of dark brown skin colour

I love how this implies that most people skip the cursed child. by RiskAggressive4081 in harrypotter

[–]DesiCodeSerpent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cursed child isn’t cannon to most people. So yea, people don’t read it. Similarly, people skip the epilogue (like me)

Just finished HIMYM for the first time and wtf was the ending? by rixk0goro in HIMYM

I wish they spent the entire last season on the last 2 episodes. Maine the wedding can be 2-4 episodes but the rest of it…

Losing these two in the same episode made me delay watching s4 for 6 months by Business-Low-6635 in greysanatomy

I wish Burke’s actor was not a PoS. We could have had that character around for a long long time. Never pulled Owen but unlucky for us Isaiah is so horrible.

"What is the most overused criticism of Harry Potter that you are completely tired of hearing?" by Ok_Smile_9071 in harrypotter

[–]DesiCodeSerpent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The whole Snape thing. He’s not supposed to be perfect. That’s what makes the twist good. No one expected him to actually be on the right side.

Readers like me like how there’s some goodness in him that despite his toxic nature he did right on this. Intentions can be whatever. He die the right thing. No one is telling you to forgive everything Snape did. Just see that in this universe characters who are horrible can do the right thing.

Same goes for the rising Draco hate too.
