Content in Fiction: Sex vs Violence, Death
Why is violence and death more tolerated than sex and lewdness? Sex is generally considered a part of life but is less tolerated in fiction, explicitly speaking. Violence is generally frowned upon in life but things like Saw, Hellraiser, and John Wick not only exist but are celebrated. (Don't get me wrong, I am fond of the last two at least) Why is explicit depictions of violence tolerated but explicit depictions of sex not?

I don't see a problem with explicit depiction of sex and lewdity. As long as it is appropriately age rated. I attribute squimishness towards sex to negative influence of religions. It's typical for religions to seek to control reproduction, so they come up with all sorts of rediculous myth about it. All Abrahamic religions are guilty of it. I am not sure about Hindu, as I see dancing replacing lewdity in Indian media. Well they can replace anything with dancing really... Regarding PRC, their political system has all the trappings of religion, so it makes sense that the party tries to control sex and reproduction.

Muslim men asking Muslim women if they were virgin
Have you ever experienced this, ladies? In general, any man asking a woman about her sexual past, seems immoral to me. However, when it comes to Muslim ppl, I find it highly offensive to ask a Muslim woman if she was a virgin. As first, if she truly had a past and repented to Allah, and would... (edited) read more

Romance and love aren't real concepts
For a long period of time in history, women used to choose their suiters based on financial safety. The security of a well managed lifestyle that allows her to settle and build a family. The new concept of "love" and "romance", made her change her perspective and fall into the trap of a fleeting... (edited) read more

Valentines is only as big as it’s maked it out to be
If it’s prioritized too much (and doesn’t apply to the person itself), it’ll create unnecessary anxiety and pressure. Think about it as normal day. It’ll go by fast. It can be also converted into another day. I’m currently doing friendlentines with my friends, out for dinner we go. (edited)

I'm not into what you look like or what you have. It's about the warmth of your heart and the strength of your character. I could care less about anything else. That's what is important to me and my opinion on how people should judge another person's image.
