ironically an idiot.

This is a take…

And no, no rational person just “gets over” someone drunk driving. Drunk driving is a very serious issue. It’s like expecting them to “get over” him attacking people with a knife.

He didn’t kill anyone while, yeah, drinking and driving is bad. Like I said, in this scenario, it happened fucking 6 months or two years ago; it’s in the past. There is no need to bring it back up, and no, attacking an innocent person with a knife is obviously worse than drunk driving.

I find it very concerning that you think they should be more concerned with who a grown adult dates than with him committing a serious crime. You said yourself, they don’t have a right to forbid a 21 year old from making his own decisions, that includes who he dates.

I don’t think any parent has the right to control their 21-year-old kid. It’s ridiculous that Gemini portrays Clark and Lois as overreacting to Jon being a superhero and lying about it—especially since Clark hid his own identity for 14 years. Then it says they’d “forbid” Jon from being a hero, but they’re fine with him dating women 10–20 years older. So basically, “You can date whoever you want, but you can’t save lives”? That makes zero sense.

They also shouldn’t be okay with him drunk driving

In the story it literally happened either 6 months ago or two years ago any rational person would get over it.

What about Tyler Perry or any other millionaire or billionaire who didn’t come from rich families? Do they not still hang out with family or childhood friends?

Should they in some way prevent him from dating a 31 year old?

No, I don’t, but if you are writing Clark and Lois, whether it be for a comic, TV show, fanfic, or whatever, their characters need to be consistent. If you are okay with your 21-year-old dating a 31-year-old, then you should be fine with them being a superhero. If you aren’t okay with them being a superhero, then you shouldn’t want them dating someone 10 years older than them.

But in the scenario I gave, the drunk driving accident either happened two years ago or 6 months ago, so you would think he would get over it. Also, what does that have to do with Jon being a superhero or not?

No, if Clark and Lois were disrespectful first, then Jon should tell them, “Fuck you and go fuck yourselves.” It also doesn’t make sense because in season 3 Lois got breast cancer, and in the last episode she decided not to go to chemo three times. Sam Lane said to Clark, “You let Lois miss chemo for an investigation?!” And Clark said, “I didn’t let her do anything,” so why wouldn’t the same be applied to a 21-year-old Jonathan Kent?

No, I’m not, but it’s contradictory; you can’t be ok with your 21-year-old son dating a 31-year-old woman but then not be ok with them being a superhero or vigilante.

And even if you had a problem with it, there isn’t shit you can do about it.

It doesn’t matter if Jon was drunk driving; he is 21 years old. Clark and Loid don’t have a fucking “right” to “forbid” anything; they can’t “let” a 21-year-old do anything.

If Clark and Lois try to tell Jon, who’s 21 years old, “You aren’t allowed to do this,” Jon should say one of these things.

“Mind your own business.”

“fuck off”

“Go fuck yourself.”

“Go suck a dick.”

“Fuck you”

Any other combination for “fuck you” and “go fuck yourself”.

Did Superman and Lois take issue with the drunk driving part?

It doesn’t matter if Jon was drunk driving; he is 21 years old. Clark and Loid don’t have a fucking “right” to “forbid” anything; they can’t “let” a 21-year-old do anything.

If Clark and Lois try to tell Jon, who’s 21 years old, “You aren’t allowed to do this,” Jon should say one of these things.

“Mind your own business.”

“fuck off”

“Go fuck yourself.”

“Go suck a dick.”

“Fuck you”

Any other combination for “fuck you” and “go fuck yourself”.

But you shouldn’t need any prior knowledge of the show.

If you make Logan Roy, Fire Lord Ozai, Darth Vader, Peter Griffin and Stan Smith look like better parents than Clark and Lois, then you have failed somewhere.

You shouldn’t need prior knowledge of the show; it should still know the characterisations if it’s researching it.

Can’t think of any DC characters

Hal Jordan/Green Lantern was a pilot.

John Stewart/Green Lantern was in the military.

Clark Kent/Superman is a reporter.

Barry Allen/The Flash is a CSI (he’s basically like Dexter and Masuka).

Black Lightning (Jefferson Pierce) – High school principal

Back in the 90’s anime had men and women doing awesome shit. There was sex and violence. There were characters I could relate to.

Can you suggest some 90s anime with sex and violence?

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”?

“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.
