i have developed a rather strong opinions about neutrality of interests. pretty much a "to each their own" mentality. this can be partially attributed to diapers, and this can be partially attributed to other interests i happen to have.

years ago, i got into pokemon. this is not something that is really embarrassing, but something my younger, insecure self figured it was to be embarrassed about. i would hide my interests as best i could, and i would make long stories about why i liked what i liked, to defend my interest when others noticed. i did this for a long time until i saw the leagues of others that had more embarrassing interests (like twilight, for instance) that got teased. my empathy for those people grew because i knew what being embarrassed for an interest was like, (as dumb as my embarrassment was) so i defended them.

during this time that i defended people for having interests that people thought were weird, i managed to become at peace with my interests, and at peace with other people's interests. i had started to develop a partially neutral mindset towards interests in general. only partial because i was never really at peace with some of the stuff i would find on the internet that i had these weird urges to look for. among these, were diapers, and spanking. i had no clue why i liked these, but my sexual interest for it bugged me immensely. after doing a considerable amount of research, i discovered rule 34. this shock meme is something that i had not expected to turn me into a paragon of neutrality, but it did, here is how.

rule 34, if it exists, there IS porn of it. why does this exist? the shock value and the lols that it can bring seem reason enough for it to exist, but it is weird that it is so extensive. why was it so extensive? the truth is, rule 34 encompasses anything because it is human nature to sexualize, and there is no limit to what people can sexualize. most of rule 34 is drawn by people who are genuinely passionate and interested about what they are drawing. and while that may seem weird, there is probably someone else that this content genuinely interests. if an artist can convey their passion in a way that can touch someone else, then the work of the artist is complete. rule 34 isn't really a shock meme, but a reminder for those with weird fetishes that they are not alone, that there is someone else who has the same interest as them, and that it is ok for them to like what they like. rule 34 will take the teasing for you, it is in the public eye, not small fetish groups that people try to pick on. (it is a much bigger target)

this realization is what finally made me at peace with my fetishes, and made me completely neutral about other people's interests, fetish or not.
