Pretty much what the title asks!

Have you ever come across a person/character that you may feel deep connection, or respect, or deep admiration towards - and then, at some point, all of the sudden, they are somehow about to come in light in a sexual perspective, and then you suddenly find a strong feeling in yourself that seeing them as a sexual creature all of the sudden feels terribly weird, wrong, crazy, scary, horrible etc?

Why do we not want to see or consider some people or characters as sexual people at all? (I'm not looking at people you'd find normally unappealing to start with).
Even if we would get somehow interested at this new point of view, at least to a point, we just cannot seem to be able to cross that strange border?

Is it some kind of "ruining your childhood" effect?

Thoughts about it?
Could it be a good thing? Could it be dangerous? Should it be explored or banned?
What about ethics? Android rights? Freedom? Android feelings?

Watching the movie at the moment.

It woke up a question.
Do we have successful heists like what we can see in the movie in real life?

Got the idea of posting this when I watched this YouTube video that talks about reasons men love playing as girls.

Why do you do it?
Are there more than one reason?
What do you enjoy about it the most?

Care to share it with us?

I have my water ready before I even enter the place.

Greetings.
I'm in quite of a pickle here, and just thinking about it will get me nowhere.

.

I attend a group hobby weekly.
Quite often we go for a follow-up hang-out in the local bar. I recall everyone else buying a drink and coming to sit down to have a chat.
I don't buy anything. I wait for the first of us ordering and then I follow them to the table.

One of our attendees has commented on my behavior twice so far.
First she said that I'm a bum. That I use the bar's staff and the place for my own benefit. There's a chance that she said that in front of someone else.
Last night she commented that I'm still doing this (we two sat alone for a while). She's afraid that they'll throw us out because of my behavior.

I explained that I rarely buy stuff from bars.
On the second comment I said that I'll probably continue this behavior to the end of times and they won't throw us out because everyone else spends money. And that my friend said that she or her friends do the same thing quite commonly.
I could have felt her loathing upon me.

I don't have the money to buy pricy consumables.
I have my own water bottle and sometimes snacks from a market to keep my belly full enough. Or then I don't eat anything and eat later.
I'm there because of the company.

The employees haven't commented anything about my behavior. I don't know, would they even care.

.

Thoughts?
Am I unfair or is she?

I'm thinking about asking her next time that should I just leave if I'm such a bother to her.
I'm also thinking about suggesting us to talk about this as a group.

.

EDIT: I don't think this is about alcohol. I believe most of them order something else cos it's late Monday and most people go to work the next day.
EDIT2: We don't have the tipping culture here.
EDIT3: Thanks for all the comments! You give my mind and feels some peace ๐Ÿ’—

Taking some time to calm down during a fight if getting angry/sad/whatever.
The other party might think that you are running away.

Make sure they know that you continue once calmed down.

I recall someone asking "Then why did you break up if you are good buds?".
Sometimes it's easier being friends rather.

Exes belong to life and memories as much as anyone in any other role. No need to forget them any more or less than anyone else (painful feelings and memories are another story).

Sometimes you can take a pause after a breakup to kill feels and later come back to friendly terms.

Well...if earth is 4.54 billion years old, then my guess would be...

[-] Damaskox@kbin.social 25 points 7 months ago

How is that guy so calm about it?

Has he gotten used to it?

[-] Damaskox@kbin.social 40 points 7 months ago

Hope this works/eases stuff up.

Scheduling problems are real, and a big headache!

[-] Damaskox@kbin.social 86 points 7 months ago

To be fair - it could have been about something else as well.

[-] Damaskox@kbin.social 40 points 7 months ago

I like the idea that characters from books, movies, games and other things can be good role models can bring inspiration, making people's lives generally better โค

Why couldn't we just make conditions decent enough for them to tolerate their stay and launch education and schooling career choices to encourage them getting back into the society once they have done their time and then having a chance to start earning money in lawful ways...
Instead of torturing them all and leaving them in their filth when they are not tortured...

I appreciate discussions that differ from the basic, casual topics! It's a nice, different breeze!

[-] Damaskox@kbin.social 22 points 7 months ago

They look so awesome!
I bet they are super vulnerable to everything though!

I remember someone once writing "I could be rich if I invented a way to stab someone in the face through the Internet!" or something along those words.
