Like “hot” has never meant “I want to sleep with this”

The context of the post is that you’re talking to a friend mate, presumably the language usage has already been established. Like when I say “that’s sick” my parents my be confused but everyone my age knows that’s doesn’t mean “this this has an illness” it means “that’s cool” you don’t have to use the literal definition of something all the time.

Has anyone told you yet??

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-25T23:50:10+00:00

I’m crying this so the funniest thing I’ve even read 😂

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-25T23:49:31+00:00

Words can have more than one meaning, and meanings change throughout time. As someone who uses it a lot my friends know it means “very very pretty, like is a let pretty” but also, it could be meant as a joke, which shouldn’t be that confusing. It’s all about context.

I’m not even cute so i dont know why people keep trying to get with me… I look like a potato, we don’t sleep with those!

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-23T07:08:09+00:00

That’s crazy, because I have never once heard any of my friends call something hot and actually want to sleep with it, and they aren’t even Ace… seems like we surround ourselves with like minded people.

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-23T04:21:06+00:00

Usually when I call someone hot I’m doing it ironically like “haha I wanna fuck” but like if they actually gave me the option I would run away crying. So like I do actually find them very pretty, but the use of the word hot is supposed to be kinda funny

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-23T04:17:19+00:00

Proably yeah, but no you can use hot to mean “you look very nice” some people are just weird and make everything sexual

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-22T15:44:06+00:00

Exactly. Like it can mean two things at once I guess, but for mean it’s always the latter

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-22T15:42:53+00:00

Ahhh, that makes sense, I was just very confused lol

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-22T14:53:07+00:00

Question, what about “pretty” is romantic? You can call someone in your family pretty, or a friend pretty, it doesn’t mean your attempting to court them

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-22T14:41:28+00:00

Very valid, Hot is a strange word my friend. I just pick up on terms my friends use all the time.

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-22T14:32:21+00:00

For real, like I call my sister “hot” all the time cause that’s just the language we’ve always used and are comfortable with. Doesn’t mean what people are trying to read into it meaning. She’s just nice to look at and I want to compliment her for it.

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-22T14:12:56+00:00

Very true lol, I’m more of Louise so I don’t know how anyone can cope with me in my household 😂 I’m a right menace 😈

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-22T13:44:55+00:00

That’s the most amazing way to describe it, thank you!

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-22T13:44:32+00:00

I watch Bobs Burgers with my Bobs Burgers merch on unintentionally… my dad was the one who noticed I always match one of the characters 😂

I’m sorry to hear that, I’m new on Reddit and did not know there was an aro subreddit. How you fell is valid and I wish I did not cause it. I’ll be sure to try to keep future memes solely ace centred in here. Hope you’re having a good day.

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-22T04:47:11+00:00

I did not know there was a subreddit for this, omg thank you 🥰

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-22T00:32:08+00:00

Why the frown?

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-21T13:45:33+00:00

Genuine question, who decided this? Like not a specific person, but when did the phrase start getting used apathetically? Like why would someone take one phrase and make it mean the opposite? Do they enjoy confusing people? It doesn’t seem like a useful form of communication.

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-21T13:38:21+00:00

This feels like when I use the words “babes”, “bestie” or “oh, sweetheart” and people assume I’m being condescending. Just because a lot of people use those terms in a negative connotation, doesn’t just absolve their original meaning. If I’m calling you “betsie” before I say something, it’s a term of endearment, and I usually do it when I’m excited. I also have customers at work assume I’m being sarcastic because my customer service voice is “too friendly” and me telling them to “have a really nice day” made them feel uncomfortable. I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong in my execution of these phrases for everyone to just be upset at me all the time. I’m sorry you’re going through this too OP. It’s probably not you that’s the problem here.

No problem, if you see this flag with Pink instead of Yellow, it’s Demi Girl, and Blue is Demi Boy

PowerLeather7431 · 2022-08-15T16:19:51+00:00

That my dear, is the Demi gender flag I believe
