If You Were a French Girl, You Wouldn’t Be So Ugly

The growing fetish for French girls is toxic and uncomfortable… — Do you know what’s more perfect than a fresh, warm croissant? A French girl eating that fresh, warm croissant. Ah~, oui, mon chéri! No one can compare to the French girl. She is an aspirational ideal and we all want to look and dress like her. The French girl is…

For Most of History, Fat was Beautiful. What Happened?

Is beauty in eyes of the beholder? Or the times? — Once upon a time — long, long ago (but not that long ago) the ideal beauty of the female form was one of plumpness. The bulky look of a healthy, round belly was what made a woman a Goddess. In this painting of Venus, the Greek counterpart to Aphrodite, is…

France Finally Set an Age of Consent After a High Profile Pedophile Case

Why did it take so long for France to realize that 11-year-olds can’t consent to sex? — When I first learned that France had finally decided on the age of consent, my first exploding thought was— “Christ, what did they have before?” Before the age of consent, if a minor is raped or sexually assaulted, they must prove that the sexual act was forced. This is practically…

Minimalism is an Aesthetic For The Rich

I grew up poor but no one would ever say we were living the minimalist lifestyle… — When I first began to do research into the minimalist lifestyle, I found the mantra, “less is more,” very appealing.

Lolita Made Everyone Afraid of Pedophiles

The book’s purpose was to raise awareness of sexual predators until the movie ruined it… — Before Lolita, nobody ever talked about pedophilia. In fact, very few knew of its existence. In a time when communism was the biggest threat, the thought of sexual predators walking amongst us was unthinkable. Just like Jaws made everyone afraid of shark, Lolita did the same for pedophiles. America had…

To Prevent School Shootings, Teachers Should be Soldiers

Their solution is more guns and militarized schools… anything but gun reform — In response to the Uvalde school shooting, shell-shocked teachers were told that they could prevent the next massacre by carrying firearms. As the country reels from this devastating shooting, legislators backed by the National Rifle Association, are drafting bills to ‘harden schools.’ “We can’t stop bad people from doing bad…

House of the Dragon Will Put Game of Thrones Season 8 to Shame

The Targaryen Kings rolled in their graves when Bran the Broken became King — House of the Dragon has dropped another trailer and it’s bloody epic. My heart stopped in my chest, goosebumps adorned my arms, and I felt shivers down my spine. It was a feeling of spectacular joy and a new sense of hope after the disastrous ending of the promising Game…

Turning Your Passion into A Career is Destructive

It is an artist’s dream of turning one’s passion into a source of income. It is a dream that often unfolds into a nightmare. — Once your passion becomes your job, your fantasies of turning your favourite hobby into a money-making venture slowly dissipate when you’re met with a cruel reality. Just like your previous car-washing job, the hobby that once gave you immense joy becomes another tedious, laborious job.
