This is a social experiment.
WHEN WILL PEOPLE FUCKING REALIZE THAT
MEN
ALSO
ARE
GIVEN
UNREALISTIC
EXPECTATIONS
DO YOU HAVE ANY FUCKING IDEA
HOW IMPOSSIBLE IT IS
TO LOOK LIKE THIS???
IT’S 100% FUCKING ILLOGICAL TO EXPECT MEN TO HAVE THIS RIPPED SIX-PACK ABS AND BE SKINNY AND HAVE PERFECT SKIN AND FACIAL COMPLEXION! MEN ALSO EXPERIENCE BEING UNCOMFORTABLE WITH OUR BODIES ALL. THE. FUCKING. TIME.
Watching the trailer for Happy of the end: "It's...it feels very Ogeretsu Tanaka like"
Yep. Turns out it is adapted from the eponymous manga written by Ogerestu Tanaka, one of the many Ogeretsu Tanaka works that I read in the past. I just love how they almost always write beautiful fucked up love stories and doesn't shy away from depicting and condemning obsessive and destructive behaviours in relationships. They are like "Nope, nothing romantic in an abusive relationship, get your shit together" and I love them for that.
(Also, very unpopular opinion, but Yaribu is forever underrated.)
I've been thinking about it a lot since the beginning of the release of Theory of Love, but there are scenes (at least in the first two episodes) in which I feel like I'm not looking at Khai and Third, but Off and Gun. Like the most domestic ones.
Or just when they look at each other.
Has anyone felt this too?
Like... During that amazing scene of "sharing bodies" (Those who saw it know what I'm refering to), when they looked at each other, I actually got goosebump and thought "wow, am I looking at Khai and Third or Off and Gun? They look... so much in love with each other..."
I'm very confused.
I call this...

K-pop artists wearing braids and cornrows is NOT culture appropriation.
Note: I’m black.
If I had a dollar for the amount of times people have told me that I should be offended when K-pop artists “Steal” my harritage I’d be a billionaire. And, if I had a dollar for everyone THEY then get offended when I say I couldn’t care less...I’d be richer than Amazon.
Truth of the matter is that, I could give two fucks, for two reasons.
1. Just because someone is wearing a Certain style, hair, cloths, shoes, etc. doesn’t mean that they are disrespecting it.
2. Why would I get offended that they wear “my hairstyle” when I wear theirs? (I straighten my hair, dye it black, etc)
This
Is not appropriating African American culture. They are simply wearing a style. They aren’t saying hateful things about black culture or people while wearing the style and they aren’t making fun of the style. Again, they are simply wearing it. I don’t find anything wrong with that.
Now, if they were wearing these types of hairstyles and embodying stereo typical African-American manners, THEN I wouldn’t be okay with it. Call out appropriation when it clearly shows, but understand that when it isn’t a big deal. I actually feel honored when other cultures wear braids andor African-American oriented hairstyles. It’s a form of flattery and we need to start understanding that.
On my second note, African-Americans don’t have straight hair. This
Does not come naturally to African-Americans. Our hair comes in different stages of curls. I have yet to meet an African-American who has naturally straight hair, if you have good for you however that is not the majority of African Americans. This kind of hair requires a wig or a weave. If other culture wearing “our styles” is disrespectful then what do you call this?
“It’s not about them wearing the style is about them not knowing the culture behind it and what it means to African-Americans” You may argue, to which I argue back: before you go and buy/use a shirt, pants, shoes, hair etc, of a certain style, do you look up where it originated from? EVERYTHING we have acquired here in the United States we have acquired from other countries and their cultures. So technically, we have been appropriating since the beginning.
Again, I don’t have a problem with K-pop, or any other cultures for that matter, wearing African-American oriented hairstyles. Do you agree? 
I was wondering who put cocaine in the Big Dragon ost for it to be that good and it turns out it was fucking Jeff Satur, can I have a break sir, I’ve reached my simping level for the month
Why am I still here? Just to suffer?? I reblog stuff and get DMs from sexy scammers. What a wonderful life.
