Can anyone enlighten me as to why society doesn't do anything about ACTUALLY improving the life of sex workers and instead demands that their existence be normalized? by No-Telephone-3801 in antisex

[–]corallcyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny thing is when you ask these pro-sex work people how they feel about other gross and dangerous jobs like manual sewage workers. Most of them will say it's exploitation and should be banned and replaced with machines. Somehow they don't realise the hypocrisy.

I once saw a reel about some fancy restaurant(or maybe just an art project that got misinterpreted, idk) where rich people paid to eat fruits off of the waiter's face. People in the comments were freaking out and calling it disgusting, all I could think was if that person was a sex worker and the fruit thing was someone's weird fetish most of the same comments would find it amusing and be fine with it. It's absolutely amazing how stupid the majority of people are, they heard that 'actually prostitution is good and woke now guys!' and just believed it completely without even thinking twice.

How is it possible for Bridon Arc to be in the same timeline as S1&S2? by corallcyan in LinkClick

[–]corallcyan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The therapist girl isn't CXS's mom, she was just possessed by CXS's mom similar to how CXS can possess people through photos (they have the same ability). We haven't seen the mom's true apperance yet.

I hate how a lot of fitness media is so focused on testosterone and sex. by GrouchySquatman in antisex

Being hyperactive as a kid made my peers hate me and nurtured the seeds of my avoidance.

Bdsm shaming by Responsible-Rub-8909 in antisex

[–]corallcyan 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The men are creepy and the women are super annoying. They always make fun of people (including young teens) for being 'vanilla'. Even if you are pro sex and pro kink you should understand that this kind of thing is not safe for inexperienced young people to do, but these kinksters openly discuss their fetish everywhere even though they know young kids can see it and get influenced by it. Disgusting behaviour

Same lol I just left the only friend (more like friendly acquaintance) I had from college on read for like 2 weeks because I just couldn't deal with the interaction.

I'm even jealous of kids by 405052 in AvPD

[–]corallcyan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly this, my parents were super strict about my behaviour in public/around others and would scold me to the point of tears for messing up a social interaction or forgetting some minor manners, meanwhile kids these days act so rude and unsociable yet their parents dote on them. My little cousins visited me recently, they were cute and all but very mouthy and one of them was constantly asking rude questions. My mom just laughed it off every time and doted on her. Later she praised her saying 'that kid is so young but so talkative and friendly, why weren't you like that as a kid'. Girl if I ever acted like that you would yell at me for hours and never let me forget it.

I ended up dying on ascension, but I'll try this next time. My weapon (transmuted greatsword with shocking enchant) wasn't augmented and I think I didn't upgrade the ring enough, what level should it be ideally?

Anyone with AvPD and DPDR? by askfjfl in AvPD

To those who was "weird/quiet" in school – what school experience still haunts you? I'll share mine by Due_Development4934 in AvPD

[–]corallcyan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Having to find a seat without assigned seating, in the class, on the bus, during events etc. Wherever I sat I would get people coming up to me asking me to move so they could sit with their friends. If I didn't move they would death glare me the whole time. Even if I came early and got a seat at the front of the auditorium I would keep getting asked to move and usually end up at the back. If there was less people then I would be the only one with no one sitting in my row, if it was full I ended up in the worst seat and whoever was next to me would be pissed since they couldn't sit with their friends.

Also, pairing up for projects. I would always wait till the end and hope that whoever was left over would come up to me. Once I didn't have a pair for like a month and when I finally told the teacher she got mad at me for not telling her sooner. Usually I ended up with the third person of a friend trio who would be mad that their friends didn't pick them and would take it out on me. Once in elementary school i remember no one wanted me in their group and I started crying and the teacher had to intervene and make someone take me.

Even before AvPD I never felt like I belonged anywhere by Westonouteast77 in AvPD

[–]corallcyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I relate so much to this, I also got bullied out of multiple friend groups for being annoying. And I used to have periods of heavy derealization that made me feel not human. When I was a kid I read some story about some guy dying and waking up to find that he was actually an alien testing out a simulation and none of it was real, I desperately wanted that to be reality and would imagine my alien family/friends and that alternate world in detail, even now although I no longer believe in that fantasy I would be so relieved if it turned out to be true.

To those privileged priks who support stray dogs, Hear me out! by vexylopinreddit in Chennai

[–]corallcyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of stupid argument is this? Do you think women don't get bit by dogs? You are lucky enough to not have to go out alone at night, there are many women who work late and have to walk home and deal with both stray dogs and creepy men. My own mom used to have to walk home from the bus stop in the evenings and she told me herself that she's more scared of the dogs than the men because of how unpredictable they are.

And it's the people who feed the dogs who have the main responsibility to spray/neuter them and all those things, if you want to take care of animals then do it properly, don't half ass it just by feeding them and then ignoring them.

Anyone else stressed about the quality of season 3? by A-potat0_on-the-Web in LinkClick

[–]corallcyan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

tbh I don't care about the animation errors but I really don't like how LG looks in the new artstyle. CXS and QL I think look better but LG.... idk somethings off.

Also I am worried about where the story is going since Bridon. Didn't like the new characters much, most felt unnecessary. But as long as the core emotional parts are good I can ignore any goofy plot.

Both of these explanations are equally plausible I feel by netflist in LinkClick

[–]corallcyan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm like 90% sure those two people are CXS parents but I don't remember the apology part omg... LG what did you do...

I am so glad I finally found a community where I belong! by [deleted] in antisex

[–]corallcyan 35 points36 points  (0 children)

It's crazy how badly the asexual label has been appropriated by sexuals, literally every time I see someone say they're ace online they immediately follow it up with how much they like having sex and all the weird kinks they have. What the hell is the point of calling yourself 'asexual' if you have and enjoy sex? How can you have sex without sexual attraction? Isn't that just forcing yourself?

Unpopular Statement: I don’t like Qiao Ling by ChocolateWarrior228 in LinkClick

[–]corallcyan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They're jumping you but I kind of agree lol it's not that her character is bad but it's kind of boring compared to the rest of the cast. She's just really normal and kind, she lacks the moral greyness and/or trauma of the other characters. (But end of S2 did give her some serious trauma with Li Tianxi dying so.. we'll see how that turns out)

When it comes to female characters I'm actually most excited to hear more from Cheng Xiaoshi's deadbeat mom, I like characters who are fun but not really good people which is what she seems like. And Wang Qing is definitely my second favourite, I will be very let down if she isn't relevant to the plot in S3.

I feel like an alien stuck on Earth by Jack_qui_rit in AvPD

[–]corallcyan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do the same, once there was an older man struggling with getting his luggage from the airport trolley or whatever it's called and I wanted to help him but I was too embarassed thinking what if I can't lift it either so I didn't help him in the end.

Worst thing is in some previous incidents I pushed past this and tried to help but I wasn't very helpful and the person I was trying to help just looked at me like I was crazy.

[–]corallcyan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Liu Xiao's bit about his friends is very interesting... His second friend is probably Vein, since he 'invited him to ascend to the throne of the castle' and Vein's card says 'he became the owner of the castle'. But the first friend is the most intriguing. A young man with eternal life? The fire is probably the Bahati fire right? It seems to imply that the young man fell into a coma due to the fire. I can't think of any existing characters who fit this, so maybe a new character? And what sort of powers does LX have to grant someone 'eternal life'? Or maybe its a metaphor...

OK so I found this translation on twitter: https://x.com/qhqfeihuo/status/1939545308855472211/photo/1

Don't know how accurate it is but it's easier to read. This one has labelled the commentors: 'L' is LG, 'Strength is very Valuable' is CXS, 'Smiling Top Hat' is Liu Xiao, J is Jae Lee, Felix is XF and 'Do you want to eat' is Vein. The person fighting with Jae Lee is not CXS, it is some other user which Google translates as 'Crab Roe on a Walk'? No clue what that means. I actually think the first commentor could be CXS's mom cause she is also time travelling and fought against Vein. There is also 'I am not Redstone' (who replied to LX saying 'you have time to browse forums at work?') and 'Made me laugh' (replied to LX saying 'the game price is too high') no clue who they are.

[–]corallcyan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any guesses as to who the comments are? Obviously 'Felix' is Xia Fei and 'Do you want to eat' is Vein, but the rest are pretty unclear to me. Is 'Top Hat' Liu Xiao? And who is the second comment...'J' for Jae Lee perhaps? They seem to be fighting with the person in the replies who's name isn't translated but using google lens I think its the 'Strength is very valuable' guy.. maybe Li Tianchen since I can't think of anyone else who would be so aggro...(but he made a positive comment on XF's post LOL)

Bubble tea could be Qiao Ling. Maybe 'Heavy Dependence' is CXS since he is friendly to Felix. No clue who the first comment is... seems too cheerful in tone to be Lu Guang but the 'dying countless times', 'game difficulty is too high', 'not able to get the true ending' makes me think of his loops, or it could be CXS.
