But see, every human social interaction these days is viewed through the lense of "must have sexual undertones."

That's why it's hard to go in public/make eye contact with strangers without someone glaring at you and accusing you of something nasty...

Don't have time for too much complex thought right now but just wanted to say THANK YOU.

I feel like pop culture has really fed into this nonsense, where every scene between anybody is written/filmed as "ship-bait".

This idea people can't be friends without underlying sexual tension feels a lot like "you can't just enjoy something without putting it online and side-hustling it." And it sucks.

It feels like another extension of how everyone sees every single human interaction as transactional anymore.

it is normal, I just think its funny to suggest a romantic plot between the women to setup their husbands with each other

Normalize men catching all kinds of feelings for one another.
