I didn’t say kids didn’t do these things. I said Hollywood shouldn’t romanticise it or glorify it.

Do you think it’s okay for minors to do drugs, drink and have sex with adults? Do you think? Parents are “villains” for justifiably saying “your a minor this isn’t ok”?

If you didn’t do these things in high school, that’s a skill issue

“young adults or adults” seems to imply young adults are not adults, which they are

I know I’m saying younger adults or maybe slightly older adults, like the youngest being 21 and the oldest being 25 or something. If you want the characters to be in close proximity with each other and still have this school dynamic, then college is perfect; there are people in their late 20s or early 30s getting their PhDs in these teen dramas. The writers never actually show the awkwardness of high school; they only want to show them talking, acting and doing adult things but never really show the consequences or have teens realise maybe they are too young for this. If you want a show where the characters look, act, and do things 21-year-olds do with little to no consequences and no adults even asking the slightest of questions, then just make them 21 and in college.

Kids in my school were absolutely clubbing drinking, hooking up, doing drugs, getting pregnant etc. at 15 or 16.

I never said that they didn’t, but TV will glamorize it and make it look “cool” and “edgy” and romanticize it when it’s really not. There are teens who dated their high school teachers and got married, but just because this happens doesn’t mean we should romanticize this relationship on the screen.

How about just be decent for the fuck of it? Why should we need reasons to be good people?

There is a difference between being a good person and going out of your way to get revenge for someone.

My point is that only a romantic partner can truly be the sole motivator to become a hero or to seek revenge. I don’t necessarily disagree that fridging is misogynistic, but honestly, a platonic loved one dying is not a strong enough reason to want revenge or to become a hero.

So if you lived in a superhero universe and you got powers and your best friend was killed, you would honestly use your powers to find the killer and be a hero to avenge them? Seriously?

You don’t expect people to be motivated by loss of any loved one other than a romantic partner? Really? No other kind of love is strong enough for you?

Honestly, no, I’m not saying friends or family members aren’t important, but they aren’t important enough to decide to get revenge, avenge or put on a costume to fight crime for. Or to just change your life around and be a good person

In my opinion only romantic love should do that.

My problem with Spider-Man is that Uncle Ben is the central motivation for Peter, and in my opinion, it’s dumb. I honestly don’t think Peter should have even gone to confront the killer. An uncle or any family member isn’t worth that.
