10 Shocking Reddit Unpopular Opinions
Pants are not sexist
‘I’m sick of hearing about how women’s pants don’t have pockets. They don’t have pockets because women care more about looks than pockets. If they didn’t, they’d just wear men’s pants.’
If you cast a dark spell against someone, then you should be punished
‘I believe in magic – and in this particular case, spell magic – and I feel like casting dark magic against someone else should warrant a punishment as you can cause a negative effect on their life, being, and spirit.’
The legal age of consent should start at the beginning of puberty
‘After that, none are considered minors separate from adults. That denoter only applies to pre-pubescent people – i.e. children.
These laws need to be revised to take into account nature and the natural order that has been in place for hundreds of thousands of years.’
Elon musk sucks
‘He’s like all the other Rich billionaires, but he tells “jokes” on Twitter so everyone doesn’t care?’
Poverty is a much bigger problem than racism and sexism
‘Breaking news: your chances of success in life depend much more on your parents’ wealth than on their skin colour.
This study measured the wealth of people compared to their socioeconomic class and race when they were kids. And guess what? Just like everywhere else in the world, poor people stay poor and rich people stay rich. It has nothing to do with race.’
American Healthcare is expensive for a valid reason
‘Many Redditors love to hate American Healthcare because it is not tax-paid and expensive, and Europeans love to masturbate while bashing America online, but that is another issue.
It is an interesting discussion to have on the issue if American healthcare should tax paid or private, but the main issue is still the high prices of drugs. Sometimes Americans have to pay 10x the price of drugs compared to everywhere else.
But why are drugs so expensive?
The issue is that America produces almost 60% of new drugs, which means it owns most patents and that is included in the price of the drug.
Other countries often copy the chemical formulation and produce it without paying patents or paying far less than Americans. American drug producers also sell them cheaper because otherwise, they would produce it by themselves anyway.’
Don’t bring your GF/BF along to a friend gathering
‘Nobody wants your partner to join!
We purposely invited only the people we are friends with from a select pool of people we want to hang out with that night. Bringing your partner just tells me that you’d rather hang out with them than with us, so why even join? Makes me feel like me inviting them, or even my presence, is an inconvenience in their day that they would rather spend alone together.
If people are in long-distance relationships and rarely see each other, I totally get it, but if they live together, it just makes me feel like I’m not worth their full attention.’
Body shaming is good and should be done more often
‘Think about it: It pressures people to become more attractive (thinner). It would lead to more people looking more sexually desirable, such as for cunnilingus and anal. Plus, since we’re all about cancel culture these days, why not just cancel fat people? Not to mention the cost saved treating obesity & diabetes, and that money can go towards sex toys.’
If you support Trump, you support his ideals
‘Trump supporters can plead not racist and say their activists. Time and time again, trump makes racist tweets and rapey comments verging on predatory. For example, retweeting white power tweets and saying he’d date his own daughter if she was not his. You may not be racist yourself, but supporting racism is racist and supporting rape culture is the same ideology.’
Masks are a scam anyway. Unless it’s an N95, you’re wasting your time.
‘Fauci and co said these were useless. Then the CDC said stop wearing them. Now these are the greatest life saving things in the world. Then we are told to double or even triple mask.
This is a complete waste of time and we are being lied to. At some point, we need to question what we are being told.’
