#QOTD
What's a social norm you think should be questioned or redefined, and why?
The guy always having to ask the girl out
please keep your answers appropriate
Slow walkers will be discarded from my society
what are these responses
Girls being able to hit guys but not the other way around
Why isn’t my school allowing locker decorations
Real
Saying “bless you” after someone sneezes like blud i aint blessing yo ah after you projectile sneeze on me
Equal Rights Equal Fights
wtf
Equal rights, Equal lefts
not a hot take just homophobia
That too.
not really a social norm but people still do it anyway
students making fun of teachers/harassing teachers either for fun or just to do it. It's not funny
I'm agreeing with you 🤡🤡
Or an opinion.
@fading nimbus
thank you
Mb didn't get it
read the pins please
Asking "Why"
a lot of neurodivergent people will ask this and people will often assume they're being sassy or "questioning authority" but in most cases they legitimately WANT TO KNOW WHY SOMETHING IS DONE THE WAY IT IS OR WHY ITS SET UP THAT WAY
🥹
some of these answers are crazy
We don't allow homophobia in the server.
Brodys done
The fact that a convicted felon in or out of prison can become president 🙃
weird outfit combos wdym I can't wear jeans with a dress
a lack of knowledge about disabilities/ nd
Crazy??
realest thing ive seen all week 🙏
School teachers telling u whether or not u can use the restroom
so real
Stop going on about deleted messages
"I don't know, CAN you?"
Well, a lot of them are being questioned by my generation already. I’d say it’s having laws about what you can or can’t do with your body or against same-sex marriage. We’re the land of the free. Pursuit of Happiness is part of the Bill of Rights. Do whatever makes you happy as long as it doesn’t trample on the rights of others
Also the idea that if a person is a public figure that we have the right to demand what we want from them or be all up in their faces and lives
A famous person ahs the right to say no to giving an autograph, they do not owe you anything and they ESPECIALLY Don't if you show up to their house or show up to their flight randomly to meet them or just stalk them in general. They're still PEOPLE
Oh boy, have you seen some parts of Germany and France?
Omg I love that
Fr! Since when do kids and teens not get the same rights as adults?
The person who did the homophobic act, their messages have been deleted
Your messages are going to be deleted stop talking about it
No animals allowed in restaurants should be changed to "unless service animal", it's disgusting how many restaurants turn away those with a disability or mental issue who have a service animal specifically to help and assist them
Not sure it could've been said better than that my guy 👍
fr
It's illegal to turn away a service dog I think
thats cause people started abusing the rule by saying little mittens is a "Emotional support pet"
I know some of you have passionate answers, but please remember to follow the rules. We don't allow discussions about politics, sensitive topics, or any form of discrimination
im thinking of an answer but i genuinely dont have one
Please js stop going on about it yourmessages are being deleted by mods
Samee
I get what ur saying but it's done
I don't think anyone in the server wants it to continue
Everyone already said what I was going too😭
how can i achieve explosion role
😭
oh where
Click on id:customize
A lot of restaurants still do it, it's really horrible
They do?
in fact I got an Ad on youtube the other day about a service saying they would give your pet a certificate for "emotional support" for the sole purpose of being able to take an untrained pet into stores and restaurants.
That's crazy
For real
The guy always having to ask the girl out
I’m more just saying that LGBTQ+ stuff should not be a significant political issue. It’s nobody else’s business but the individual’s
Yeah sometimes its the other way round
Bro genuinely stop
It's done
I get your opinion
And that's ok
its illegal for them to ask for paperwork for proof for the service animal so they end up having to say no to everyone
@calm basin Please stop talking about it and bringing it up
But the individual who's done it, they've been dealt with
Move on from the topic
Yeah but it's easy to spot real support animals compared to fake
fax
Okay chill the hell out I just thought it was another part of the message that got it deleted
I'm chill
I tried telling you 3 times before
Now a mod has told you
Which you didn't need to do because we have Mods watching
it would be better if you just left it for the mods to address
you're just going to aggravate the user further
My bad
only once you see them inside your restaurant unfortunately a new hostess on sight may not be able to tell if someone just ordered a fake vest off amazon or if they have a trained service dog
I agree they should let service dogs in but I think we should be targeting the people who think they're entitled to lie about having a service animal
That's so true
My own first message was a social issue. But I’ll stop
So many people have lied
That's more of the issue
So MANY fr
If only there was like a certification ppl with service animals could show ppl to prove its a real service animal
Yes
I think it'd be cute if service dogs had little licenses like people do that the owner can carry around and such
We need that
its illegal to ask
Fr
Damn
Oof
adults without children sitting in childrens playgrounds , i think its weird and creepy
People need to start doing things to ensure that an owner has a service dog. Service dogs are not things that are "Games and Fun"
They are animals that help people
People who struggle
It should be taken seriously
precisely
If its mostly a playground, yeah I can see it. But sometimes it’s a bigger park
and people tend to try and get away with their little "but its an emotional support pet" certificate they got or $50 online somewhere but their pet isn't trained whatsoever
Frr
Service dogs are not toys
They're real animals with a real purpose
iam talking about the type of adults who sit in the playground close to the play equipment, watching the children
its crazy honestly I hate it so much
FRR
Yeah that’s creepy
lol theres alotta controverisal shit being said, maybe not the best question to ask? XD
What's the question
the qotd
read
Ohh
I remember seeing this guy whose blind get turned away 3 times by 3 different restaurants because he had a seeing eye dog, like, it's terrible
Furries
Idk my mouth works faster than my brain sometimes
I rest my case
I meant the QOTD
nw its okay
it do be like that sometimes
yep
Another social norm I think should be questioned is everything being online these days. We talk about loneliness epidemics and how social media is a big problem for our mental health, but how do we get people to interact more in real life?
i skippin this one tbh
Damn
easy! money! (half joking)
So true
Dude I went to a bar the other day, was ordering food, and he literally said card only
if I had the money to go out and hang with people I would be OUT of the house a lot actually
yk what heres my social norm that should be questioned, why is it a big whoop if someone likes pineapple on their pizza? just let ppl enjoy things
Everything is digital, and then it's gonna take over and were all gonna be AI slaves 💔
That we can't dress up as outlaws or cowboys from 1899
I am out of th ehouse a lot
In fact I need to go to cadets now
But like
I'm a Social Anxiety kinda person
Mood
But when I meet someone I get comfortable with them
I have social anxiety so it's hard for me to talk to ppl irl
No fr
Samee
I wish I could tho icl
Sometimes it's hard for me to go up to a librarian-
another social norm
having dyed hair be considered "unprofessional"
I'm sorry Karen why can't I have my pretty purple hair?
🤡👈
Yeah
And tattoos too
Yeah no fr
School dress codes and cat calling.
School dress codes are annoying but vital
like why does that distract yall so much? after you see it once, you know its there so it shouldn't be considered distracting after that
FR
I gtg to Cadets chat
Talk to y'all laterx
Also 40 HOUR WORK WEEKS
It's just dumb imo. Like who cares if they have tattoos? As long as they can work, then who cares 
👍
full time hours should be 6 hours a day
30 hours a week should be full time and pay enough to live comfortably
piercings, tats and dyed hair should be work place acceptable
Are they still not??
I swear I see everyone with them showing now
some jobs and schools still dont allow them as i know !!
Bummer
Unfair judgement of different people. That’s another one. It’s easy to do when you don’t meet them face-to-face and understand their stories or viewpoints. It’s part of how we’re kept divided. I think social tensions could ease if people of different viewpoints could interact less on social media and more face-to-face
We talked a bit in psychology about how wearing a mask can bring out someone’s worst self. Some of the cruelest tribal chieftains wore masks. Social media is a mask that anyone can wear
yeah thats why i said that
Students getting jobs as an "expectation" students can get jobs if they want but it shouldn't be expected of them let teenagers exist and have fun
participation medals
while its sometimes more accepted, the older generation is more likely to find some arbitrary reason to not hire you if you have any of those things
I wanna say this in good faith, but with a rule like no politics, it probably wasn’t a good idea to ask about social norms being questioned, especially when in some places like America, those two things tend to be very closely intertwined these days
I don’t know how to react on discord but 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
uh idrk i feel like girls should be able to ask a guy to marry them and not js a guy
like I wanna propose to a guy
idk bout yall 💔
That’s fair. It really shouldn’t matter
You can it's just that alot of people say it's "the man's job" to do it
As a Lesbian myself if it's "the man's job" who the hell proposes 😭
Ain't no men in my relationship
The most annoying societal norm for me personally is teenagers having to go to school at the hours they do
omg thats so real
They simply aren’t built for that. School should start at 8:30 at the earliest
i have school at 7:10 on mondays 🤦
My current school is a life skills school and it had a different time table and everything and most students there are more prepared for the real world AND smarter than the average student at the other campus
The time table you ask? 10 am to 2 pm Mondays to Thursday's
A social norm that should be questioned is licking ice cream in public
When you lick ice cream, every single tiny food particle that is on your tongue gets transferred to the ice cream and its disgusting, i also dont want to see your tongue please keep that in your mouth
Ice cream biters unite
????😭😭😭😭
Some subjects are combined into 1 like maths, science and English and history are all kinda combined but it's manageable
Every school should adopt this kinda curriculum imo
what if my teeth are too sensitive to do that

At my old school I would have no clue how to make a resume but with the kinda school I go to I have a STACKED resume and I havnt even had a part time job yet (no where in towns highering minors 😔)
Mine are sensitive too…. We must suck it up to create a better society
Facts tho
Same answer
you are so brave...
I eat ice cream faster than anyone I know, partially because I chew it
🔥🔥🔥🔥
idk if this counts but smoking away from public areas !! i was walking to class today and while yes it was outside a guy was smoking and i walked right into it and got so much second hand smoke 
Fr
Wait this is real too
Please smoke in designated smoking areas
this is so real
Got my RSA, food handler's, lisence, first aid training, white card and almosty forklift lisence in the span of 2 weeks
Change the school curriculum to the one my school does 🗣️🔥
Couldn't get my forklift lisence cause Im not old enough 😔😔😔
My ass is NOT forklift certified
2 more years
REAL
My lungs are weak as hell
I can't handle being in public if there's a smoker around
I second this.
Real
Especially paparazzi they just take celebrities privacy and safety and throw it out the window
I saw a vid of some paparazzi just straight up pushing tom hanks wife out of the way to get a photo
REAL ‼️‼️‼️ im looking at you sasaengs 🫵
like the fact people were saying Chappel Roan was WRONG to be upset someone got up in her face while she was walking to demand a picture confuses me
I could not be a celebrity
I get really self defensive if someone's up in my face
Let alone a mob of people with bright lights and cameras
Real Ive seen so many girls just straight up punch a dude in the nuts and go "haha you can't hit a girl back"
Followed by them getting punched directly in the nose and the boy getting suspended
It should not be a crime to defend yourself
Schools:
I genuinely despise public schools, this being a big reason
I despise schools in general
My new school dosnt have the silly 'boys can't hit girls" rule
How tf is knowing the dawes plan gonna help me get money to go in my bank account
The rule is if you punch someone the person you punched can and is encouraged to punch back twice as hard
It may seem contradictory to my issue with people not forming real connections these days, but public schools are genuine cesspools. “If you’re being bullied, speak up” but they don’t care when you do. Then you get in trouble for finally standing up for yourself
Why tf does austrian painters view on stresemann's economic strategies matter for getting jobs n shit
Schools should teach actual stuff we use outside of school
Its not so much a school rule but rather just older social norms that women are more fragile and a way to train/teach boys not to hit women at an early age.
Schools should just adopt the vcal curriculum (idk if that's what it's called but it's the type of school I go to)
They teach you a bit more then the basics of maths, science english ECT but it's more focused on life skills and getting permits for your resume to get a job
That and kids vaping, stealing, and even having kids of their own before they graduate. It’s what happened to a couple of seniors at my high school
it wasn't so much a problem of "ah but girls can hit guys and it would be okay" until modern day
From the kitchen to the tables to the basket basket ball court
Most of it is built by the students (and the teachers ofc)
There are a lot of things I can say shouldn't be normalized in society, but for the sake of not starting shit, I'm gonna say that women's clothing not having pockets should not be the case.
women are physically at a disadvantage and weaker than men but yeah nobody should be hitting nobody
Fr
Ppl should just keep their hands to themselves
Also teachers that don't follow 504 plans should be fired on the spot or atleast be forced to take time off without pay until they learnt they're lesson
school nurses that know absolutely 0 medical knowledge
School is supposed to help prepare you for life, but why not teach the bullies a lesson about being douchebags, that if you start shit, you’re gonna get hit. The teachers and principal won’t be there to save you later in life
I have hypoglycemia so I always carry a little baggy of snacks on me and a big water bottle cause it's super bad
I got yelled at and got my snacks taken away while my blood sugar levels was 2.4
Because not teaching them lessons like that is how people like the Paul Brothers exist
The low end of "healthy" is 4
i’d slap it out of their hands fr that’s so wrong
And the teacher didn't get any punishment until my mum threatened legal action
Cause I was quite litterally in the back of an ambulance 20 minutes later because I passed out and slammed my face into concrete
Fr saying "haha you can't hit a girl!!!" Is so damn childish
school nurses are sometimes so unqualified like one sent me back to class cause "period cramps are normal and you need to suck it up"
well I had to be taken out of the school via wheelchair ma'am
Same. I don’t care what the teacher will post on Reddit about kids being so mean these days. If you think they’re acting like they do in 1984, maybe don’t run schools like it’s 1984
Don’t run it like a fuckin’ Reddit moderator
Just teach them not to hit ANYONE 💀
THIS teachers in Australia need atleast a level 2 first aid training thing (I think it might be level 1 actually I forgot) and most school nurses Ive had just straight up given 5 year old me to much medication
Nothing pisses me off quite like people in a position of authority who aren’t qualified to have that authority
I was so high in the early year of primary school cause the school nurse gave me twice the dose of my medication for 6 months straight
My school doesn't even have a nurse-
deadass ,schools need to accustom rules and overall atmosphere to times NOW, shit is different than it was 20 years ago, even 5 years ago? new things are being discovered any minute and you should use all your knowledge as an administrator to your advantage to make sure that the kids are getting the best treatment they can have
My current school dosnt have a nurse but that's cause every teacher is as medically certified as a med school graduate
Whenever my school holds the first aid training lisence program which is every year in June the teachers are forced to do it aswell plus an extra medical thing every few years
Plus the school is right next to an ambulance station
i feel like every school should have 1 certified nurse who’s actually gone through medical school and all the steps necessary in the building
Also an issue with school nurses is they aren't legally allowed to do much
In Australia they legally can't give you Panadol (over the counter painkillers that aren't even that strong(
yep
Only reason the school nurse was even allowed to give me my medication (and fail) was because I couldn't administer it myself because I was 5
you're not wrong I'm just saying how it STARTED. Two boys fighting was seen as typically normal and okay until someone got really hurt but if a girl was involved it was like GASP.
Clutching my non existent pearls or whatever
I agree with this statement... I'm a shy guy... I need this 
School nurses should have the ability to do basic first aid if needed and have the first aid training of someone in med school
probably because men and women still aren’t seen as equal, and in reality never will sadly
My friend SHATTERED his leg way back in 2013 and the nurse was only allowed to get a bunch of ice packs and paper towels
No bandage wraps to keep it in place or anything
Just slap an ice pack on it and that's it
that’s screwed up, they should’ve sent him to the hospital?
They did but it took a while for the ambulance to get there
i mean calling an ambulance should’ve been the first thing they’d done
He was in a wheelchair for like 3/4 months and had to use a walker for 2 months cause of how bad the break was
hope hes doing alright now
My school didn't allow you to carry painkillers, you HAD to go to the nurse to get them and you needed a signed statement from your parents like every 3 months saying you were allowed to receive pain killer which was dumb
From what I heard he broke almost every bone in his leg besides his toes
same
😰
Yeah thats the law in Australia now I think I should probably double check it
And that's just stupid
another thing i think is that in the US, atleast a FEW cops or a FEW military soilders should stand guard at school buildings due to all the shootings and threats
He fell off the tallest part of the playground and slammed his knee into the edge of some play ground equipment on the way down
aww
And he didn't get any pain killers until 2 hours later when the ambulance got there
He was like 6
2 HOURS?
Idk bout y'all but 6 year olds tend to feel pain a lot harder
They called the ambulance immediately but the school was in the middle of no where
I think it should be mandatory to do a paternity and maternity test on all babies right before they leave the hospital with their families cause the amount of times hospitals have whoops swapped a baby is uh TOO MANY actually
oh 100% they’re smaller so more of their body is affected
this shouldn't be a thing in modern day and yet it is
yeah, usually they put bracelets on babies and that seems to calm down the issue alot better than it did when this issue was in its prime, but i get what u mean
also doctors should have to take a mandated test every 10 years to keep their license to practice medicine. Also if you say you don't believe in mental health or vaccines you should NOT be in the medical field
Also you should not be able to get someone in legal trouble for saving your life
I think it was America but someone sued a dude for saving her life because he broke one of her ribs during cpr
If you break a rib during cpr you're doing it good (unless it's a baby)
yea some states already have laws for that
breaking the ribs is good it means that ur getting to the heart?
also gay marriage should be legal everywhere i forgot to say this
its literally so stupid that people like me cant get married in most places just because of my parents gender
My first aid instructor said if you break a rib or two it's better than letting the person die
think that case was ultimately dismissed tho if that helps
Oh that's good
fr, like if u don’t like it then u don’t like it but ur opinion about something that does 0 harm should not be put into law
the issue is they have to prove gross negligence happened and since its mostly expected to have a rib broken a judge will just go "i dunno did you wanna die?"
I ultimately don't get why it was banned in the first place
this ^^^^
If penguins can get gay married I should be able to get gay married aswell
braindead politicians id say
Careful, there’s the no politics rule
probably bc it was “out of the social norm”
the fact that a big percentage of animals of any species is homosexual is even funniet
Even though it should be a social issue, but it’s become political, much to our dismay
A societal norm that should be added is everyone gets to meet a penguin irl and Pat it
I love penguins
Agreed
I have
Went to hospital 😎
I am very accident prone
me with every animal i love animals so much 
lemme rephrase this
have you every pet a jellyfish at an aquarium where they have the non stinging variety available to pet?
Then again, what’s to stop people from just living together anyway
they are so squishyyyy
I've helped nurse a fairy penguin back to health before 🥺 it was so cute
Yes they are
I love fairy penguins
another thing is rent shouldn’t be as high as it is rn ATLEAST for the us some of the prices for the bare minimum are ridiculous
Best part about having an uncle that runs an animal rescue centre is when I lived with him Is I got to help with the easy stuff like weighing and feeding animals
and there needs to be more help for poor people
Everyone (besides those allergic) should be required to help in an animal shelter and help out animals are so cute
Have you ever had a Koala climb on your arm before
They're so softt
And sugar gliders to
A woman bearing the responsibility when a child goes astray
like wtf
its ur kid too yk
I think formalities should be skipped, why say “hello” when i can start by saying “do you think soda is spicy juice”
but you blame the mother saying its her child
But when he does well it suddenly becomes ur child
Hello chrjz
lol


Societal norm that should be abolished is sparkling water
Same, I wish a girl asked me out 
What's worse is it actually happened once but then she dumped me like I was nothing 

But another girl is interested in me and I'm getting less shy so I'm happy now 
good for you then
A norm rhat i hate is always having to stand up when the teacher enters our classroom like ok i get it we need to respect them but i HATEEE always havjng to push back my chair because i can never push it enough and i just look stupid
I hope you get someone soon bro 
A norm that is actually like harmful is being told to go to school even when you're sick
nah
i can just stay at home when i wanna
I had a certain thing when I was a little child (tw just in case) ||I had a brain tumour|| and was still expected to go to school between medical appointments
Like damn I'm 6 let me stay home and watch tv I ain't need to learn how to count yet 😭
And not being able to wear beanies was the death of me ;-;
Yeah... I've never had that happened before I've actually been single my whole life lol...
Like it isn't even disrespectful 😭
Why'd they ban wearing hats or beanies inside
It gets cold in Australian Winter lemme wear a beanie
Or hoodies

Hoodies are awesome
ikr
But if you wear a hat or hoodie, you may be a drug dealer or worse
It could also distract other students apparently
Bro, if a hoodie or hat is enough to distract people, maybe don’t make your lessons so fucking boring
This
They need to make lessons more interesting
Like not every maths class has to be a movie
But like
Make it interesting
I hope you can get someone soon 
If I ever become a teacher I'd make my lessons memorable
Teach history with puppets
Like instead of just pointing at a board I'd give real world examples of how you'd use it
Omg my year 3 teacher did that
She was AWESOME
Thanks... it would be nice.. I've never even had my first like hand hold...
But I'm glad someone else is interested in you hope that goes well!
Also boys bathrooms at school should NOT look like that
There was quite litterally a mushroom growing in the one of the toilets at my old school
Boys rest rooms made me trans
Rather be a girl than deal with those hell holes
tysm! Gl for you! 

A norm I think should be abolished is shaming an overweight person for going to the gym
Amount of times Ive seen it is upsetting
It's like going into a hospital and laughing at people for being sick
fr like that’s kinda what the gym is for, evb starts somewhere ur not born a bodybuilder lolol
That hiding emotions = strength. Eye contact, shaking hands, and women's clothing that lacks pockets
Its too serios now, you are right
What does this mean? Sorry
that is not what im saying
homophobia is bad
I Like to Help people who were in the past No Problem but today are treatet Like Monsters, Most of this people are really really smart and nice
I Hope we can be more Like the old Days 
Thank you
Np
For what??
Fr
Im Calling that "Selbstverteidigung" in German
Not the best of questions 😭
pointing out/judging people’s insecurities
That pretty/handsome looking people or mean and so called "ugly" looking ppl are nice and that ppl r ugly....EVERYONE'S PRETTY AND HANDSOME It's the society making u insecure! I wish things change.
not treating others with respect and then expecting to get treated kindly
Do we need to keep reminding individuals to keep answers appropriate? Please stop sharing any misogynistic takes here; No one should be hitting each other and that is a harmful rhetoric to believe in.
You're the ones choosing how to respond to this, the rules still apply here
ikr like I wanna propoese to a guy and ask him to marry me wrd
whye tho smh
real
well thats true cuz u gotta be to school at 8:50 or ur late for my high school
this
yep that's true because I've been made fun of more than I can count
Ok let me re word my answer
Self defense should be allowed regardless of the identity or standing of the assailant
some schools not doing a thing about bullies because parents
Dang that's bad. Withholding punishment/retribution bc their parents got money or smth is wrong and mad corrupt
it’s not money it’s because SOME parents refuse to believe their kid could do anything wrong and get mad at the school for pointing it out
Capitalism
Vaping in the school bathrooms should not be normal to the point teachers don’t care… I just want to do my business bro, not see a whole drug deal
Oof. So withholding justice because Karen. Also bad.
Men in dresses/skirts/heels. That stuff was made for men originally, and makeup was all genders too. I know its becoming a normal thing again, but still a LOT of ppl are against it
Girls can wear pants but boys can't wear dresses?
children being taught to be “kind to everyone” children should be taught WHO to be kind to and about boundaries
asking to touch someone's pregnant stomach why is this a thing
Dating with older people and making a child already Saw some on my fyp for no reason ngl.
the real answer for this is when people say ‘we are trying for a baby’ girl I don’t want to know what you be doing behind the scenes get out 😭😭
When they say"Respect your elders" for anything. I did not decide to be born these decades gramps 😭🙏🏾 And when they say "Your elders know better", MOST. Not all bro, they have experience but that doesn't mean they're automatically correct.
Also I want to add on spreading Bible verses in random comment sections, I respect the hustle and the attempt but this is a monster school video
teaching ur daughter to protect herself and not ur son to respect women
i mean girls should be taught to protect themselves but people should also teach their sons to respect women
not teaching women to respect EACH OTHER if u wanna be a trad wife that's fine but don't judge ur friend for wanting to have a 9 to 5 while the husband stays home like omg!!
Teaching women to respect men too, and mutual respect in general. I think it's not just men not respecting women and vice versa, but also people not respecting other human beings as a whole. No one respects each other anymore.
