Alcohol use disorder is the third leading preventable cause of death in the world.
Daycares if you grew up in the 90s
Mormonism?
Don’t forget music and the entire fantasy genre
Don't forget: Science fiction
Fast food (and while it's bad for you, I'm not gonna die from having it once dude)
Video games (especially Pokemon)
All of these things were seen as bad around the people I grew up with. But, even my mom realised it was mostly bullshit and let me play Pokemon.
I'm in fear of that hairy underwear.
My mother is pretty liberal by my country's standards, but she is nonetheless religious and I knew deep down all her restrictions "just because" was due to religion. She think I "might get ideas". It occurred to me that religious people are prurient, or ironically dirty minded. Most kids and people don't give dirty meanings to things unless you taught them specifically.
Well alcohol fucks with your brain, so it isn't all bad.
Nobody wearing those granny panties is talking about sex
I mean I'm kind of afraid of the world. This planet has earthquakes and volcanoes and pandemics and tsunamis and prions and cancer and war and landmines and maybe a big asteroid every billion years.
No reason not to enjoy everything we've got, of course. It's still the best home.
I can see things like LGTBQ+, your own body/sexuality, and alcohol depending on who you ask, but why yoga, the world, or coffee? Yes these things can be scary to some people, but certainly aren't things to be taught to be feared unless you are trying to create something similar to brainwashed slaves.
