I wouldn’t say that these are hot takes cause some probably arent so lets just categorize this into oPiNiOns I’m not intentionally trying to offend anyone with these, but if it came off as that way, please let me know so I can reword it! These are just my beliefs, and we are all subject to our own. Different opinions will have different trigger warnings so ygs know what to avoid just in case. ---------- #1 (TW: child neglect) || The “middle child” stereotype is just wrong. Like, wdym ygs are romanticizing child neglect? It really shouldn’t be categorized as some sort of “aesthetic” or trend. This goes for all stereotypes, but (at least from what I know) most people don’t mention this one as often (I don’t have access to a lot of social media, so forgive me if that’s wrong <//3) #2 (TW: child abuse/neglect) || Kinda like the last one, the normalization of child abuse in Asian households needs to stop. Like “oh if my Asian mom sees me getting an A- they won’t give me dinner but ig I’m just Asian lol!” Like no bro that’s child abuse. Its different if you actually went through that, but if your just saying it to be funny, gain attention, etc isn’t okay. #3 || bruh pickles are delicious idk what ygs are on #4 || Okay so this is mainly personalized from my experiences, but I HATE being introduced as the “trans friend”. Like— some people I know will be like “this is [name] haha he’s super cool he’s trans btw”. I get that most people don’t mean it in a hurtful way, but it feels as if my entire existence is being framed down to “being trans” or “being queer” etc etc and not anything that actually defines who I am. And also, it’s considered outing. Like— what if I don’t want them to know that I’m trans. Again, it’s not always done with hurtful intentions, but it can get to a point. #5 || Bruh I hate it when my parents are like “I don’t care abt ur grades as long as you try your best” but when I try my best and still get a bad grade, its always “why are you so lazy” or “I bet you didn’t even pay attention in class” like mom ilysm but MATH IS NOT MY STRONG SUIT….. || You are not a fake fan if you like their most popular song. Its popular for a reason TT (TW: depression, mental illnesses) || Depression is not a joke. It’s not an “aesthetic” and it’s not funny. It’s a mental illness. Some people need to understand that. I’ll be living my short little life at school, and I’ll hear “oh im not depressed, I just love the aesthetic!” And then I’ll hear people actually agreeing with them, saying “oh yeah that’s so real” and “clock it”. Coming from someone who was clinically diagnosed with depression, it’s not funny. It’s not cool. It should not be treated as an aesthetic. || I’m personally alright if enhypen is 6. Yes, I’ll miss Heeseung. Yes, he was awesome. But we arent obligated to know EVERY SINGLE DETAIL of their personal lives. If he actually wants to pursue a solo career, that’s PERFECTLY okay. If the conspiracy theories are true and he was kicked out, that’s not our problem. We arent obligated to know every detail about everything. Just let the poor man live his life. || Hand in hand with the last one, some eyekons need to understand that breaks and hiatuses are allowed. Being an idol/singer is STRESSFUL. If Manon wants to take a break, that should not be a problem. It’s her life, it’s her choice. Some eyekons are acting as if it’s the end of the world. Let the girl take a break. And if she decides that she doesn’t want to stay in the group, that should also be alright. WE ARENT OBLIGATED TO EVERY DETAIL OF THEIR PERSONAL LIVES. (TW: Racism) || Saying racial slurs, jokes, and stereotypes should NOT become the norm. It’s not funny. It’s seriously offensive. Our generation is absolutely screwed. || Pineapple does in fact belong on pizza || A “pick-me” is someone who slanders and belittles certain groups in hopes to be more liked by another person/group. Just putting that out there, cause some of ygs don’t know the actual definition. || don’t vent on someones vent post. Common sense || Dating people for “fun” or for “the experience” is actually really hurtful. It’s like going up to someone and saying “hey so I actually don’t like you I just want have the experience of being in a relationship you in”. || This might just be me, but don’t ask someone out by starting/revolving it around the persons looks. Like yeah, I like it when people call me pretty, it can seem as if you’re only asking them out cause of their looks, and you don’t actually see them for who they are. ---------- Okay I’ll probably make more later but im lwk kinda tired rn so gbye :> now everyone read tgcf tyty
