That doesn't sound like my problem. I'm raw dogging her sister. Charlie can brood all she wants.Go after her sister, and you explicitly violated her instructions, betrayed her trust and possibly endangered her daughter by allowing yourself the distraction.
Irrational huh? You think so?I mostly agree with everything Pristis.Microdon said, but respectfully disagree on one point: I do still think Charlotte's a misandrist. All the explanations laid out explain WHY she's a misandrist, but don't change the premise that she is one. She has an irrational blanket fear/hatred of men. It's almost the textbook definition of misandry.
I am getting some Luna DeLuca vibes here...[...]
She will trust us and tell us what really happened to her, how she experienced it. It will be a very intimate conversation (I mean not in a sexual / erotic sense), she did not tell anyone about it, maybe she didn't tell even to her sister. It is very difficult to talk about this, people do not even want to admit to themselves – because it’s psychological protection.

I would argue that fear is not necessarily irrational, but phobia is. There is a difference. People conflate the two but a phobia is an irrational fear (in your DNA, experienced/learned, or from social situations) which causes paralysis of the mind/body when the situation occurs. Fear in general could be unresolved trauma based on passed experience which you are in a heightened awareness of your situations, but the fear does not prevent you from going into those situations (which we have with Charlotte, going into public and men). I mean if she had a pure phobia, she never would have left the house and gone to the event with the dude that beat her, she just overcame her fear (which was not irrational, earlier bathroom scene), and prepared to ensure it did not happen again by bringing the MC.Irrational huh? You think so?
While one can argue that all fears are irrational, I really don't think her distrust of men is irrational at all...really...to her, given her past.
I would argue one and the same.I would argue that fear is not necessarily irrational, but phobia is.
No need to be sorry for incorrectly trying to correct me.Sorry - just pointing out a different view. I love psychology so different views are fun. I have a phobia of being buried alive. It is absolutely irrational, never have happened, never experienced, etc. But I don't cave explore, don't go underground often because of it, don't go into tight places. Again - that is irrational. I also have a fear of screwing up my knee again (ruptured 3 ligaments in my knee - i.e. catastrophic blowout of my knee). So I take precautions when I exercise/weight lift and wear a knee brace.
If you were scared of fire...would that be a phobia or a fear? Can you overcome a fear of being burned alive by preperation? Fear is not always a learned thing. My step-father was paranoid and scared (feared) of many things that were unlikely to ever happen and he never experienced a single one of them. My mother has a fear of dying in her sleep....or would you say that was a phobia? Is a fear of making a mistake, disappointing your peers, the unknown....actually fears or phobia's? Are they all equally irrational?Basically what I am saying is fear is mostly a learned thing, and can be overcome with preparation. Phobia is irrational, paralyzing, and can be only overcome with lots of training/work.
I would say (about my knee) that it is not irrational, but it is a fear, thus I ensure i dont mess it up again by taking preparations.I would argue one and the same.

You don't have a phobia of being buried alive, you have a fear of it and as you say, it's irrational especially given you've never experienced it. As for you knee, you say a fear but providing you don't do anything to intentionally mess it up again, is that also not an irrational fear?

You are right though, fun to dscuss and pyschology is fun, however, a phobia actually is a fear and the two are extremely interchangeable depending on the context.
you might have something out thereI would say (about my knee) that it is not irrational, but it is a fear, thus I ensure i dont mess it up again by taking preparations.
The biggest thing I see as a difference between a phobia and fear is what it does do the person who has it. A fear is not paralyzing like a phobia is. You are indicating that they are the same, I am more saying they are on a scale. A fear is something that you recognize but a phobia is something you cannot overcome without lots of help.
You mention fire, which most people are afraid of, and because it is in our DNA or whatever. However most people can overcome their fear. Some people cannot, and when they see fire run away, sit in a corner and piss themselves. That is the difference between a fear and a phobia.
There have been no sex scenes at all.Has there been a sex scene with Charlotte?
She had three nightmare experiences with men. Four if you count her baby daddy abandoning her but I don't think that should be in the same league as the other three experiences.Irrational huh? You think so?
While one can argue that all fears are irrational, I really don't think her distrust of men is irrational at all...really...to her, given her past.
That's because this is NOT pornographic VN. It is an Adult Visual Novel. It is the difference between watching a move that has sex and watching porn. In the latter, sex is the main (potentially only) core of of the story, in the previous one it is just one possible element of many others. In fact, Adults VNs do not even need to have sex.Again...i sympathize with why Charlotte thinks and feels the way she does. But it is irrational. It is unfair. And it's a great character flaw that makes for a story that has kept us all coming back to an Pornographic VN that has been real skimpy on the porno.
Well I hope that is untrue for this game. I really wanna put my dingaling in Lucy's pretty pink thingIn fact, Adults VNs do not even need to have sex.
Hahaha we all do. I, however, being a man of culture with a clear heart and a focused mind, have a single objective:Well I hope that is untrue for this game. I really wanna put my dingaling in Lucy's pretty pink thing
Never stick your dick in crazyI really wanna put my dingaling in Lucy's pretty pink thing
