The next stage of infantalisation. I never thought it would get this bad!
My favourite quote:
"To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." - C. S. Lewis
either way, I'm saddened that you are downvoted. If you look through the past fifty years of culture, there is a distinct shift from ultra-masculinity and characteristics of maturity being favored to emotions, childlike playing, and feminine attire becming the characteristics that the youth favor in their sexual partners. Do we not want to acknowledge this is happening, or was it merely the "tone" we're supposedly downvoting once again?
One little nitpick, you forgot to say why this is "bad." You said it is happening, but considering your tone towards the OP (and the remarks about downvotes) I'm guessing you agree that this is a "bad thing" so, why exactly?
Also are you playing the whole "masculinity good," "femininity bad" card? Seems like a rather dated attitude.
Unfortunately, this means your entire post is a Strawman Fallacy.
But more importantly, are you saying our culture is not shifting towards the directions I mentioned?
Fallacies apply to arguments. The parent poster made none.
Huh?
I regularly take baths. They are very relaxing and help me de-stress. They are also good for relieving some types of pain.
Restroom is one of those writing-only words, in my experience.
Hearing parents using terms like "willie" or "pee pee" with toddlers in place of "penis" strikes me as really odd and awkward.
The words they use after they break this nigh-impenetrable barrier are usually codified in the most non-offensive ways possible. Someone having a conversation about "shit", for instance, will have a far more uncomfortable audience in North America than someone passively mentioning the existence of "poo" to a group of people. Often, the very subject's focus in a conversation will make listeners question the mental health of the speaker (seriously).
TL;DR - The culture around bodily functions is way crazier than what we call them.
Unless it's a group of women talking about menstruation, that can go on for hours.
Fortunately with travel sites like Tripadvisor often include photos from your average tourists who didn't get the memo about "never take a photo of the bathrooms ever!" and thus you get to see what you're in for with the accommodation. There's no alternative with home shopping, other than physically visiting the place.
