Re: I love...

You can bet your sweet ass that if a large percentage of people with blue eyes also had the potential to give you genital warts, and this was a common and well-known function of blue eyes, people wouldn't think that blue eyes were very hot either.

Unless, in this universe, people found genital warts to be an attractive feature. Maybe having genital warts meant you were of a higher social standing.

You can't just make up some weird ass example that has no basis in reality to "prove" your point.

Bacteria grows on your underarms whether or not hair is present. People with and without hair can and do keep their natural odors in "check" with soap and deodorant.

I realize that. But the other anon made a comparison that had absolutely no relevance to the reasons people think stuff is gross, so I made up a dumb example in order to illustrate the associative context at work. It wasn't supposed to have a basis in reality.

I also realize a lot of the associations around underarm hair aren't true, but that doesn't stop people from believing them.

tbh, I like hair. I just don't think someone who doesn't is automatically shaming other people for having that preference.

Re: I love...

Some may not be automatically shaming people with their usage of the word gross, but when you are using that word in addition to unhygienic and in a discussion about body hair, it's more likely than not that there's some shaming going on. Body hair is just one of those subjects.

People think less of you are a women who doesn't shave herself smooth. People think less of you if you're a man with back hair who doesn't shave. (Men have a little more leeway, but back hair tends to be universally thought of gross.)

Re: I love...

Maybe, but in this case I didn't really see anything that immediately jumped out at me generalizing to a population rather than just about the presence or absence of the hair itself.

I see how you could object to the use of the word gross as a label, but it didn't seem to me as if it was being used that way here.

In my universe the only attractive feature is being a green skull girl.

I'd like your universe if it weren't so fucked up.
