Think thats a matter of opinion, rather then fact.
If that's so, then neither sanctity nor the concept of "good" exist, because everything is sacred, and everything is good. Everything is effectively the same in quality because there is no standard by which something can be distinguished as good or bad. The idea that beauty is purely subjective was massively popularized in recent years because of the effeminacy of today's First World: everyone has to be included, no one can be left out; everyone has to feel like a winner, no one can be made to feel inferior--everyone gets a participation prize.
But, like I said, such subjective evaluation only applies to
some things--and that's by design.
Im nearly 50 now and had the dubious honor of dating many women. During these relationships I've had a fair few conversations relating to how my partners viewed their bodies and what their preferences would be if they could change them.
Some wanted to lessen their burden, while others desired more. But the majority where happy with what they had. Opinions may differ from person to person, but I can say without a doubt I'm my mind I enjoyed each and every one.
That's not to say there isn't a twisted perception and double standard in our society when it comes to someone else's body. But the same is true for many aspects of our lives.
You may ascribe to these harmful expectations, but me personally, I've always chosen to praise and enjoy what's before me, rather then whine about what if's and could be's.
Your experiences are as they are, but they don't change reality. If you would avoid focusing on negativity by conjuring something good from a heap of bad (or even just mediocrities), that's one way to deal with a bad hand--I understand that. In this context, however, you're still just accepting bad things because you've relinquished your choice to do otherwise.
A spade will always be a spade, even if you wanted a heart instead and told yourself that your spade's just as good in the end.
You'll have to forgive my repurposing of the saying.
You are free to have preference, but insulting another person's features opens you up to the same scrutiny.
Scrutiny, yes--but an attack is a different story. It does, when you think about it: any expression opens you up to an attack, the way it should be--as opposed to how things would be in a padded-wall world filled with blunted corners and rounded edges (which is what the First World has become). Doesn't change the fact that an attack does nothing to disprove the other person--and it's a tactic regularly employed to impose a chilling effect on those with "problematic" perspectives, one regularly used by exactly the kind who have a problem with busty women in entertainment but
not the "medium 'premium'" or pedobait.
That said, the person you quoted didn't insult anyone, nor was his comment directed at anyone (aside from his indirect references to the characters in the story). It is absurd to get upset on someone else's behalf--even worse when the person is not upset, and
much worse if the "person" is imagined...or did you take what he said personally?
