My nieces. I don’t understand it. Maybe it’s something like with Pokémon or Yu-Gi-Oh cards back then. It’s popular for some reason, children get on board with it and want to be a part of it and then we get this trend.

My keys feel suddenly very drawn to these cars.

Yeah sure, if someone does not fit in with the team and it’s a rather social job, fair enough.

But using something arbitrary like favouring some sports team, even though this served as an example, this doesn’t seem to be either a significant nor sufficient decision basis.

It might have been bizarre, but it was fucking original and mind-blowingly clever. Not the ruminated original stories, but something really new and exciting.

I need to finish reading the series. I got about half way through.

Imagine this, very good grades, strong portfolio and work experience, just to be at the mercy of some random person who rejects you for highly arbitrary reasons like favouring another sports team.
Then you get a default rejection mail, saying they have very carefully considered your application and wish you good luck in your future endeavours.

Fuck this system.

They are not totally wrong. But not totally right either.

What we perceive as sexual and how we react to it has strong cultural and social influences, of course there is also the baseline biology.

There was a time when women’s legs were “tobooed”, since being considered as highly sexual and delibaretly hidden.
Nowadays it’s no issue at all if women wear clothes that reveal their legs accross all occasions.

So there is some form of habit to it. If we are used to seeing naked body parts in non-sexual contexts, then we will see similar normalization in this regard as with legs or other body parts and areas.

We might benefit from normalizing this. Among other effects, this could help to counter many legal and social issues people have with revealed body parts between genders.

That’s a complicated way of saying that Microsoft recommends switching to Linux. /j
