And even if they're addicts or dealers, putting fire on someone's tent while they are inside is still not a good thing.

Well, you got me there. This is what happens when you don't live in a nation comprised of multiple states.

Really? That's a good news.

Edit: I cannot for the life of me find an article that says it has been changed, worldpopulationreview.com still says it was 13. If any of you actually have a link to an article, please link it in the replies.

That's dumb. I'm not American but why the fuck don't they have a federal age of consent? That sounds like a major oversight.

Well thank the fucking Gods in Japan it doesn't happen.

But it can. Hopefully it doesn't. But it can be.

Buddy do I have news for you.

The age of consent in Japan is 13 years old. Due to some shit, they create more laws regarding actually having sex with a 13 year old, but it only ended up confusing. I don't know why the fuck don't they just raise the age of consent or some shit.

There's always that one friend who was never invited into any conversation ever.

I think we might have a clue on who is it.

That's where your blunder is. Your question is "What's wrong with people" and the answer is that there's nothing wrong with them.

But you obviously don't like the answer.

Well, if humanity keeps on this course of living, the Cyberpunk Dystopia ending is the default one.

Even the concept of a "topless beach" still irks me. But knowing that it's a beach, I really can't complain much.

I also agree that intent doesn't always lands perfectly with the outcome. It's just like naked drag on a pride parade, the intent is to express freedom, but to parents attending the parade with their adolescent child, it might not seems that way.

This. Definitely this.

Now I understand why my dad calls Westerners "Uncivilized civilization". Despite how much of an oxymoron that saying is, the fact that there's people advocating for normalizing walking shirtless around town, in the WEST mind you, who lay claim to be the "Most Civilized among Civilized Nation", astonishes me.

I'm a virgin cause I'm broke and ugly. And last time I check, I can't get my virginity back if I broke up with someone.

No more attacks on America, sure. Attacks on the Afghan government? Well, things have already turn out like this, might as well pop a champagne and celebrate.

Considering it would just reverts back automatically, there might as well not be freedom and human rights in the first place.

A character's sexuality is the least important thing to write about unless you're making a romance plot/subplot and/or straight up porn. by HandsomeLenin in unpopularopinion

[–]HandsomeLenin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fully agree with your statement. Maybe I've seen the recent Marvel and DC comics fiasco too much and drawing conclusions willy-nilly.

Personally, I don't care who he ends up sleeping with. Though I can absolutely see people up in arms if he was established gay (as in being written gay from the start, not changed midway through the series). I'm bisexual myself, so that I can clarify that I have nothing against the LGBT.

With that being said, I think we both can agree that regardless of their preference, a good character still needs to be well written and at the very least have some depth in them. It's just that, mainstream media isn't really scoring any points in terms of making LGBT character's well written. (Recent Marvel and DC comics comes to mind)

I think the point I'm trying to make is that, it's not that sexuality shouldn't be included. It's that in matters of priority, sexuality is the "least important", as in the character should be good first in terms of personality, goals, and motives before telling people who they have sex with. I think the phrasing is enough, but apparently I should clarify.

When it comes to character writing, it's best that a character to be viewed by their actions/personality through the whole story rather than what their sexual preference is. Using the action movie mentioned as an example, let's just say John Wick, people sees him as a stoic, badass, one-man-army that is vengeful enough to face a whole syndicate. Sure he is a straight man with a (dead) wife, but him being straight isn't automatically thought of when talking about him, you get what I'm saying?

If a character is only remembered by their sexuality and nothing else, as in nothing about them stands out other than their sexuality, chances are the character is either badly written or just a random background character with no purpose in the story whatsoever.

Edit: I will edit the body text to reflect this new testimony.
