miscellaneous Tropes that became problematic

The Persistent Suitor: A guy who is after the girl and just wont take no for an answer. Nowadays we just call stalking and harassment, but it used to be romantic. Example: The Notebook (2004), Noah asks Allie out while she's on a date with another man. She refuses, but he threatens to let go and fall unless she agrees to go out with him.

Comedic Woman On Man Violence: Mostly seen in anime, recently it has decreased a lot but years back every show had a woman hitting a guy and showed it as funny. Example: Toradora!, where the quintessential tsundere, Taiga, beats up the MC regularly.

Kid Bags Adult Baddie: I remember a few of these, sometimes it was to show how cool and awesome a kid was because an adult woman fell for him, now it's just seen as problematic shit. Example: Blank Check, the woman likes the kid and kisses him telling him to look for her in 10 years.

Nah, see the thing is, his body kinda dictates alot, like he remarks he didn't get arroused when he breastfed even though his new mom is a bombshell.

That he, who you insists is continously the same person, wasn't turned on by his not-mom?

Why the fuck would he have that thought at all?

And holy shit no kidding a baby doesn’t get physically sexually aroused.

Doesn’t stop him from thinking about keeping a girl around to shape into a “perfect wife”

Just stop dude. What a bad look

So you acknowledge his body has an effect on his mind. Proving my point lmao

u/Totally-Human-Red Sep 06 '26

Other fucking way around, weirdo.

His body affecting his mind would mean he wouldn't get aroused as a fucking baby, and YET.

u/Nice-River-5322 Sep 06 '26

So by your logic, he should be getting aroused from his mom? Which he doesn't

u/Totally-Human-Red Sep 06 '26

"By that logic, something you didn't say and only psychos would do?"

His body affecting his mind would mean he wouldn't have a pervert libido as a fucking baby, and YET the image above.

So, again, if it's his mind influencing that, he should be able to be attracted to his mom.

u/Totally-Human-Red Sep 06 '26

You keep insisting that him being attracted to his mother as if it's a lynchpin.... Why?

He's literally wearing his nursemaids panties on his face, grinning lewdly at her, above.

I get it, you have an Oedipus complex, goddamn.

I mean, in the grand scale of it, whither or not his mind influences his body or his body influences his mind, it's kinda a critical point. I think that's kinda why you are having a bit of a melt down and avoiding addressing it, but I mean, nobody really expects better from you I guess? Also given Lilia didn't have a kid yet, she wouldn't be his nursemaid? Like do you even know how that works my guy?

"Nursemaids are only mothers"

FUCKING CHRIST, Oedipus. RELAX.

"I mean, in the grand scale of it, whither or not his mind influences his body or his body influences his mind, it's kinda a critical point."
Nah, man. You're a freaking pervert who made it about his mother.

This is my last reply, cause I LITERALLY showed you a picture of him wearing panties on his face as a baby.

A lewd act, from a baby, that you can see with your own eyes.

Edit: "I'll claim Nursemaids are only the breast milk part of childrearing despite being shown otherwise" what a fucking pervert. I hate that I interacted with such a freak even slightly.

u/Nice-River-5322 Sep 06 '26

Well you can only nurse if you know, you had a kid or are about to, that's how you make milk?
