    You know, what I’ve always felt is really weird is how, in the US, it seems to be more socially accepted to wear a gun around than to be nude publicly.

    Kinda like, a device to kill someone, is more accepted, than your own body.

    So stupid.

    Anyway, it’s the same for posts like this. “oh you’re an adult and are into disney/childish things” is more harshly shamed than “oh you’re a CEO of a big company and earn lots of money while exploiting your subordinates and the environment”.

    Please, don’t kink shame. If everybody had kinks like these, the world would be a less hurtful place.

      I think using the word “kink” implies sexual connotations, which it doesn’t have to be at all. 100% agreed with your sentiment, though. I hope that person had a blast!

      Are we calling being a disney adult a kink? Or are we calling shoving kids over a kink?

          Ah, ok I understand. I honestly just found it amusing, mainly because kink really isn’t a bad choice to describe their behavior.

          I have always found Didney adults to be creepy, but their behavior is more or less understandable. The reason I avoid interaction is because they blindly support Didney like some kind of religious zealots.

          I would like for Didney to go away. People like this will ensure Didney lives forever, they not only creep me out but make me question their ethical capacity.

            I completely understand. I am from Europe, and I love cartoons and animations. Unfortunately, in the western world there is only Disney.

            Disney has a lot of morally questionable attitudes.

            That’s why I mostly watch anime. Currently watching Onyx Equinox. So cool.

    Disney adults are a bit lame, yeah, but I swear they have nothing on the demographic that truly deserves the crown for lamest and most cringe but somehow flies under the radar:

    Harry Potter adults

    And for the record, people are allowed to be lame. It doesn’t make them bad, it just makes them lame. I’ll defend their right to be lame forever, but it’s also okay to tease them lightly about it, so long as it stays good-natured. Don’t take life so serious.
