warning this content may be upsetting or disturbing to some audiences stop being overly sensitive and leave entertainment alone if you don't like it don't watch it 13 unpopular opinions of Reddit that will make you say hmm choosing not to shave your armpits and legs doesn't make you a strong powerful woman I mean seriously has the bar been set that low it's 2020 do whatever you want with your body but for the love of God don't make it seem like you crushed patriarchy with your hairy legs choosing not to shave parts of your body doesn't make you a strong and powerful woman by default it means you're sane enough to understand the concept of your body your choice yeah some people will find it odd some will find it ugly some will think body hair equals bad hygiene but literally no one outside of internet strangers will come up to you and comment on how brave were stupid depending on their opinion you are for having armpit hair women started shaving between 40 to 100 years ago depending on the country and it was always optional so please focus on things and laws that actually matter in terms of body autonomy and women's rights and for those who are saying I do what I do just to please men here's a copy of my comment that sums it up so women who wear makeup feminine clothing dye their hair get their nails done shave stay fit etc do all of that to please men because this social construct has done what brainwashed them get the hell out of here I do all of those things and I'm an intersectional feminist and activist I refuse to victimize my physical appearance by saying I don't want to look the way I do but I have to because men dictate the way I look that's top tier BS my body my choice goes both ways and I choose to take care of my body the way I see fit doesn't make me powerful or special but it doesn't make me a victim of societal pressure either bad people usually win there is no cosmic fairness no one controls their future the cheaters liars and manipulators of the world are the people in power you get ahead in life by stepping on weaker people wars are waged for profit medals are harvested by slaves genocides compete with Kardashians for airtime on the nightly news there is no cosmic fairness people are often subjected to terrible suffering due to pure randomness good deeds are punished and bad deeds are rewarded some people are born with painful and curable illnesses if you're born mentally challenged in a poor country you're screwed no one controls their future you can do everything the right way and still be screwed you can walk down the street minding your own business and suddenly be doomed to a life of paralysis and chronic pain by a drunk driver you can live a normal life for decades and then be caught in a fire that leaves you disfigured for life you can be kinda noticed with everyone you know and lose all your friends because a psychopath decided to turn your friends against you I could go on but I think you get the idea if you need religion to not be a horrible person and to stop you from doing horrible things then you are a terrible person I've been thinking about this opinion for a while now ever since I've hit my teenage years this is because my mom always tells me if it weren't for God I would have insert messed up action so when I got older I realize just how messed up that actually is the reason as to why it is messed up is because you should be a good person based on your own moral code not religion what if that religion never existed what would you do if you all of a sudden didn't like religion anymore what would you do then would you go and kill people with rob banks would you do all the horrible things you wanted to do previously those who think this way usually don't even know or care for the reason why they shouldn't do horrible things they only seem to not do awful things only because they think that something bad will happen to them based upon their religious belief now to clarify this isn't to say that I hate people who believe in religion or think all people who use religion in their life think this way although I do personally despise religion as it has caused a lot of trouble in my life this is to say that I think if you religion is your entire reason for not doing awful stuff then you aren't a good person in my eyes note some of the things my mother has said were really bad she even said that she would have killed me in my siblings by now if it weren't for God yeah really shaking my head I'm talking about a sizable amount of religious people who refrain from evil deeds simply because they fear harsh consequences based on their own religion I repeat not all people think this way but a sizable amount of people do don't disregard what I say simply because of my age if you think this way you're being closed-minded this is a nuanced topic so there is a lot of room to debate here I'm okay with that people who think we live in a third-world country with iPhones referring to the USA need to get out of their bubbles it is extremely frustrating to hear people talk about how bad the United States are first half to be clear I absolutely do not think that the u.s. is perfect or even close but to say something like it's a third-world country with iPhones is incredibly ignorant to me it's obvious that anyone who participates in that school of thought has never set foot outside the United States I haven't been everywhere but I have been to most of the states and many countries in both Eastern and Western Europe South and Central America and Asia people the standard of living in the u.s. is just straight-up higher than the vast majority of other countries even other countries that are also considered first world poverty levels are not even close to similar and someone who would be considered at the poverty line in America would line up with the average standard of living in most of the world it's not even just economics socially while I won't even argue for it being the best in the world the states are certainly up there racism and discrimination to exist but it's not even close to the degree of racism or discrimination that can be seen in West Africa or Central America there's so much more depth that can be dealt but I am posting this as basically a rant and not as a research paper I am NOT trying to say that the United States are better than any other country just that the standard of living is generally higher men should know how to cook and clean women should know how to fix tires and maintenance their cars the amount of hate I get for even saying this is surreal if you as an adult human being can't look after yourself what are you even doing then adult skills aren't and shouldn't be categorized in sexes I literally know men who don't even know how to do their own laundry or make a simple soup I also know women who have zero skills and replacing wiper blades and cry over not knowing how to work with a lawnmower stop looking for a partner who can do the things you never learn to do and do it yourself it takes you maybe to Google clicks you're an adult get your poop together this post is meant to be for people in a balanced relationship or marriage it was mostly meant for singles who live alone the more skills you learn as a single the less pressure you have in your next relationship I would also recommend people in relationships to still learn many skills because it comes in handy sometimes you should at least try before you can say that you don't know how to do it we need to stop romanticizing and fantasizing about revolution it's not exciting to be living through a revolution it's devastating for some odd reason I see all these posts over Instagram and Tumblr about how great a revolution is going to be how Jonesy is not afraid and will overthrow the government and just people fantasizing what it would be like to be a part of a revolution let me be clear I really think we need a revolution and I stand with whatever is happening right now but this is not the time to self insert into your favorite young adult dystopian novel you're not Katniss Everdeen revolution comes with a price and people pay with blood sweat and tears if history has taught us anything it's that with every revolution comes sacrifice and suffering romanticizing this is not only distorting the severity of the situation but is also disrespect to all the people who have suffered and will suffer in the future removing shows because of offensive content is going to drive up piracy piracy has been around forever and it still exists but piracy ran supreme from about 2005 to 2015 it took a decade for corporations to realize that to beat piracy they needed to adjust their business models incomes Netflix iTunes Spotify and many other streaming platforms giving very easy access to media content instead of buying a DVD for 12 euros you could now pay Netflix 10 euros to watch a whole host of films and TV shows for an entire month Spotify change the music industry allowing for free the streaming of all of your favourite music all of these changes drastically decrease the number of people actively downloading pirated content on a regular basis however in our current climate we have safe spaces BLM the LGBTQ movement and other forms of content policing these groups have the power to define what should and should not be classed as entertainment and have it cancelled in the last week alone we have seen the fall of shows like Little Britain and Chris Lilley from Netflix The Inbetweeners from YouTube and as of today an episode of Fawlty Towers a show which stopped airing in 1979 has been pulled and banned from use on UK ITV if this continues it is going to force a lot of us to go back to our old ways cancelling our subscription services which have removed our favorite shows and pirating them instead it's a lose-lose situation for all involved stop being overly sensitive and leave entertainment alone if you don't like it don't watch it I'm sorry but I don't want to see a pregnant woman's bare stomach on social media lately I've been noticing more and more pregnant women post bikini pictures with their stomach out I get that it's a part of life in the I have to carry this thing around for nine months argument but it's very off-putting all the comments are always from their girlfriends saying stuff like oh my god gorgeous mama but it's just gross to me maybe I'm the only one what's even the point to show people you're capable of carrying a child to show how good you look if guys got pregnant I would never post an Instagram of my huge stomach there's just some things people don't need to see and that's one of them I actually really like those ask credit YouTube channels that have a robot voice reading responses to questions so I mainly see these channels getting hate on reddit itself I Drive a lot for work and just never have the time to read the responses some of them are really funny wholesome more disturbing it's a very unique form of entertainment because people from all walks of life have an opportunity to tell their stories when I'm driving I listen to them if not for those channels I wouldn't get to experience it people on reddit seem to hate them but hey some of those accounts have a lot of subscribers and probably make a little money from it more power to them in my opinion most parents are toxic and should not have children this is going to sound popular and maybe even after reading this it will still be but hear me out I see all the time about how much parents just hate their children for example back-to-school day will come and the parents will be super happy about how their kids will be gone most parents treat their kids like a burden like their unwanted like they aren't deserving of love and affection the visceral hatred for children once they outgrow their acute-phase is astounding it's as if nobody truly loves their children the only love their children if it'll give them something to gain like feel good hormones when they see their cute kitty in a Superman costume for their second birthday I see it all the time on how parents treat teens are not cute children like there's some scum of society like they're a parasite when it's in fact the opposite so to all the parents like this fu plain and simple no child should ever have to be born into a world where they feel unloved and uncared for simply because of another person's actions no child should ever have to believe it's always their fault for being born I don't care about your excuses or how your life is so hard having a child isn't meant just to make you happy it's meant for you to care for someone and make them live a life full of happiness and joy life is meant to be a gift but you are robbing the gift aspect from them it's pathetic how I see so many people sharing stories of how they're scared of their parents or how they hate them but it's just tossed away and labeled as teenage rebellion why the hell do you think teens are rebelling there can be just teens who want to cause problems but that would quickly turn into an invalid argument when you realize just how common it is if you think I'm just uneducated and don't understand parenting you're in denial plain and simple yes parenting is heart it absolutely is but there's a difference between truly wanting the best for your child and hating them making them feel alone for the first years of their life plus not all parents are bad I've seen many parents here on reddit and elsewhere on how no matter things get they will always strive to give their child the best possible outcome for that if you are one of those people you are how a parent should be and I applaud you it isn't Parenthood itself I don't support and hate it's how most parents with the gift to create a child end up abusing it and turning it into a selfish hobby making another unconsenting life suffer at the hands of your desires your beliefs and not theirs which if you think about it sounds very very black mirror esque going cashless is a terrible idea the fact that there has been a gradual push to get us away from using cash for years and the reasons why it's a bad idea seem obvious I'm confused why more people don't object never mind the fact the government wants a cut of every transaction possible and can track every dollar but how easy it can disappear with a push of a button who will help you then I'm doubting the government will be your hero that's just a few reasons but more than good enough to never allow it almost all religious people pick and choose what they like from the Bible and ignore the parts they don't like or don't believe is relevant this completely defeats the purpose of a holy book that is meant to be the Word of God if I genuinely believed in Christianity I would be sweating bullets over how different everyone's actions are from the written word many people like to talk about true Christians but even as an atheist I cannot comprehend how confident many believers are that they pick the right rules to stick to and which ones to dismiss like wearing two different thread types or eating certain animals from the ocean tick tock is destroying families in society in general I know right now is not a good time to go to any large gatherings but every time I go visit my close family for a birthday or something all they talk about the whole time is dick talk when they put some music on it is only tick tock music is that really all that matters now I'm not trying to hate on my family but it is really annoying if you want to use tick tock that is fine but quit forcing people to do annoying dances or listen to you did I mention they can't sit still and are constantly doing tick tock dances subconsciously thanks for listening to radio TTS hit the subscribe button and activate the notification Bell to receive free armpit hair click the right
