Okay, listen I get being constructive and critiquing anime. I'm not one of the people who think it's perfect it has issues but I swear whenever I talk about anything it's met with
"You know the CREEPS LIKE THAT"
In regards to the fact I like maid outfits, moe, chibi characters or god forbid a child character exists and isn't even sexualized.
Creeps or degens like ANYTHING so what I can't like anything!?
Like Idk what to do anymore I'M SICK OF IT!!!! and idk if I'm being sensitive or stupid about it cause I'm already terrible at emotional regulation (I think that's what that's called) and this seems to happen to me all the time, I respect everyone else but as soon as I say I love something I can't get that.
Like I'm not a creep!!!!! But I have to hear about what they like cause god forbid I'm a woman who likes looking at other women in cute outfits or sexy ones but also they'll watch stuff that's just as problematic but I HAVE to respect that.
What if I said well creeps like muscular women, well creeps like what you do!!!?????
Then I'd be seen as a bad guy
I guess tldr idk what to do when this happens because I want to be petty and type what I said above or just shut down altogether but also my stupid brain wants to be social and I hate being lonely so I have to deal with that yeah that's where we are. And it sucks, cause it feels like I have to be reminded of what EVERYONE else is doing in a conversation and NOT ME!!!!
