Anything I say on here that’s too conservative =D or sometimes, I AM the unpopular opinion. I’ll say something perfectly correct and valid, and get downvoted. Someone says the same thing a little further below on a different thing on a list, just slightly worded differently but with the same meaning, and they get like 10-40 upvotes. Or I’ll say something and get 5-6 upvotes, and someone later will say the same thing (minus whatever ranting I put into my comment. I tend to expand on ideas) and they’ll have hundreds of upvotes. It’s odd.

Also, I notice sometimes the heavily worded posts get downvoted or missed entirely because not everyone will read the whole post before voting.
Another opinion I have: It's okay to cosplay a character of another race. what I've noticed is that people think that a black person cosplaying a white character is awesome, but the opposite is bad. As long as you're not, like, darkening your skin, it's fine.
Pitbulls aren't automatically aggressive you scoundrels. they're sweet if you give them a chanc
The problem is, if you get bit by a chihuahua, you need a band-aid. If you get attacked by a pit, you die
The problem is not in the bite itself. It's the motivation behind the bite. Maybe you attacked it. Maybe it was hungry, it is a carnivore after all. Maybe it was dumped on the side of the road after it was no longer useful in dog fights. In order for a dog, or anybody really, to survive you need to eat and you need to hunt. It's not the dogs fault, it's always the humans fault for not properly training their dog, it's the humans fault for not giving a s**t about the dog. And I've been around many pits growing up. I used to live with about 3 pits and never have they attacked me or anyone else. Now I have been aggressively bitten by a golden doodle, pug, basset hound, Chihuahua, and my dogs have been attacked by a husky. All of these instances have been either my fault or in the case of the husky it was the owners fault for not training and exercising the poor thing. This goes to show that any dog is capable of attacking based on how you treat it or how it was already treated previously. Easy peasy.

My father raised pit bulls, mostly for guarding the premises and taking care of the rats. (We also raised poultry, which were fed grain. Where there's grain, there will be rodents.) I saw firsthand one of our pitties take out a rat in 11 seconds. I also had a sweet pittie end up trapped in my front yard with no clue how to get out (By the, I had moved elsewhere). It all has to do with how they are raised, and overbreeding. Overbreeding results in a smaller brain case housing the same size brain. The ones who raise pitbulls for dog fighting only exacerbate the problem. Unless and until the penalties are increased, pitties will always have a bad reputation.
I've worked for a Veterinarian, and been bitten by a terrier and a doberman, never a pit bull. That said I respect others fear of an animal, and any animals fear of people. It's usually the result of prior trauma.
Between 2010 and 2020, pit bulls were responsible for 285 human deaths. The next 9 breeds COMBINED, were responsible for 155
285 people? That's not enough. How many people have killed people within that time? I guarantee it's at least ten times that much. Humans are way way way worse than pits in everyway possible. Those pitbulls were trying to survive just like any animal would. Humans, however, do that for fun. Just cause they want to. And those other 9 breeds aren't perfect for dog fights, that's why less of them are on the street. If they were all equally used, they would all be killing people and animals to eat.
Load More Replies...I can like things without thinking they are good, and I can think things are good despite not liking them. For example, I don't have to like the art people make, however, if someone felt confident and proud enough to share it, the joy that they get from that art means it is a good thing, and my dislike is meaningless. And on the other hand, circus peanuts. I like them, but they are awful. I do not enjoy them because they taste like orange (and I must specify I mean the color orange, not the fruit) flavored foam. These are bad traits, and yet I still enjoy the artificial sugar-dense taste, perhaps in spite of how terrible they are. People do not have to justify the things they like, because what matters is that it brings them joy, and doesn't hurt anyone.
Yes!!! Very well put! Just because it's not to your taste & aesthetic doesn't make it bad. And I totally get the thing about some food ☺️☺️
Cowbells are a valid percussion insturment, and should be used more often in music.
if we're talking about the sickness then that aint good man, someone cure the dude, and if thats an instrument i dont know of as i know nearly none then ooh whats it look like
Load More Replies...Tbh…I don’t like babies. Or young children. They really get on my nerves and add to my anxiety. I’ll probably be downvoted for this though.
You’re fine. Not everyone has to like tiny humans. The only time people who don’t like children get on my nerves in when they loudly say “I despise/hate children,” as the sound of children laughing or scuttling along can be heard. It’s really obnoxious. That’s not to say you aren’t allowed to express your opinion- it’s just, when they’re laughing and singing? You choose to say you hate them then? They’ve no idea how despicable they sound lol
Same. I was a quiet sensible kid when I was little so I'm intolerant of normal little kids
Yeah, me either. and i have a five year sister. and she yells a lot. which is the worst part about small children, since loud noise makes me really anxious
Same. Panic attacks are the worst. 🙁
Load More Replies...I don't either. My parents tell me it's super rude to not like them. Like, how is that even rude??? What's rude is if I just go up to a parent or a kid and be like ' I hate you cuz you're a kid' or 'I hate your kid(s)' Wich I don't ever do
I just don't get this "OMG cute little babies"-feeling. I don't hatte them! It's just I don't care about them. It took me many years to accept this and not feeling kind of guilty anymore for It.
God help you if you said this about dogs though, unimportant dog!
Your honest opinion shouldn't be down voted. There are so many of us that agree with you. I only like other people's well behaved children, from a distance ☺️.
This should not be an unpopular opinion, but unfortunately it is. Pineapple on pizza is the best invention of humankind, especially with goat cheese and honey
Politics suck and we should all just work together
That is the point of politics - to achieve collaboration. However, divisiveness comes up with people wanting power for power's sake, rather than to achieve collaboration. Case of the former: Codesa in South Africa. Far right and Far left (nazis and communists) managed to get together and discuss a peaceful transition from a fascist state to a democratic socialism. Case of the latter case - divisiveness - well... Trump, obviously.
Honesty is better than politeness. A polite person will tell you what society's rules say they should tell you, but an honest person will just tell you the truth. There's so much value in that, and it's so much better to be around an honest person than one who's just polite. Now, both is nice. But if it's one or the other, I believe that people should always choose to be honest.
Yeah. I gave up trying to be anything more than civil when I kept failing on politeness. But I can be honest, and I have a reputation for it.
Load More Replies...Whilst I like Keannu Reeves and Ryan Reynolds, whilst their films are usually pretty good, whilst they are good at what they do, I do not believe they are good actors, they are fine staying within certain roles, but they are not acting greats.
Nathaniel, we can understand Reynolds, but uh... don't p**s of the Keanu Reeves fans
I think that both of them would say they're no Sir Laurence Olivier or Robert DeNiro. As you stated, we still enjoy their films. I have a long list of actors whose talents are, in MY OPINION, totally over-hyped, Tom Cruise being number one on that list.
No, I think this is probably right. Ryan Reynolds is always a sarcastic guy in his movies, and Keanu is always deadpan serious / robotic. I totally would say yes to either of them, but that's a separate issue.
Bicycles are just acoustic motorcycles
Here's some of mine: -most self-diagnosing is invalid. there are very few things you can safely diagnose yourself with. -adding on to this one, most people who believe they have D.I.D. probably don't. It's caused by EXTREME, EXTREME trauma before the age of 10. It is not caused by watching/reading/playing a popular thing and suddenly having a "fictive/introject" (these things do exist but not in "endogenic systems") of the most popular character/s. -no, you do not want to live in the 70s/80s/90s just because you like the music. -no you are not special for liking or hating certain things. -cringe culture is dead, i killed it
Personally, I do not agree that self-diagnosing is invalid, I think it really depends on HOW the self-diagnosis is reached. If somebody just says “I have…” that is invalid, however if somebody thinks about something for a long time, researches everything they possibly can and speaks to other people (even if those people aren’t medical professionals), then they may have a valid reason for self-diagnosis. It also depends on factors other, getting a professional diagnosis is expensive and some people can’t afford it. I do believe that if somebody has just ‘decided’ that they have a condition that is invalid, self-diagnosis should not be announced to the world until it has been confirmed especially if the idea is based off of stereotypes. The only time it is acceptable to self-diagnose is if there are factors that mean somebody can’t get a professional opinion.
There are also other factors that could prevent somebody from going to a professional place other than money that can include things such as parents not believing (if that person is a minor) or if they live in an area with insufficient health care.
Load More Replies...To a degree, I disagree on the self-diagnosing point. To a degree. Yes, the scenario you describe is harmful (same with Army's), but that's caused by ignorance and a lack of respect that stems from said ignorance. It also mostly happens when someone's looking for attention. But I believe self-diagnosing, or at least, saying "I think this is what's going on" can be beneficial with the proper research and understanding. Also when there is actually something going on. Key words there are "proper research and understanding". Without that...just no. I say this from personal experience. I will never claim to know as much as or more than an expert, but I can claim to (tentatively) understand my own problems enough to make corrections to my life. If I ever need a professional opinion, when I can actually get one that is, then that's what I'll get. But for now, adjustments to my life are plenty for me.
This site kinda sucks
The allure isn't the site, it's the community. I mostly stay on so I can talk to a few friends and help people who need help
I may be downvoted for this : That your sexuality is not a personality trait and shouldn't be the first thing you tell anyone when they try to get to know you.
An opinion being unpopular would depend on the audience. Many perspectives that would be deemed unpopular on BP, would be very normal and popular in the real world
Lol. The downvote brigade is out in full force. “Nathaniel’s Angels”
Nathaniel’s Angels sounds like the name of an alt rock band lmao
Load More Replies...My unpopular opinion is that sociocultural differences are minimal and we must get over it and stop prioritising that as our marks of difference. Most of our problems arise from fear of people who are different. If we rather socialise with different people we'll discover they're 99% the same, and the fear was unwarranted.
I'm sorry if I make anyone mad, but stop self diagnosing! Get diagnosis from a professional! Google is a bit overdramatic with the diagnosing, and a test on a website isn't much either. Get a diagnosis from a professional, pleaseee.❤️ They know what they're talking about, they've been to school for this kind of stuff. 😌
i only google s**t for when i have weird pains, or need to know the side effects of a med I'm taking, cuz I lost the form

Frozen II is better than both Frozen and Tangled.
My unpopular opinión, or let's say question: Why should any adult person watch Disney movies??? They are made to entertain kids. Most of them are really bad and the music is absolutely terrible.
1: bananas are disgusting 2: oatmeal raisin cookies are better than chocolate chip 3: mustard goes on everything
My opinion is if you're loud & obnoxious on the phone in public (not if you're hard of hearing, or talking to someone with hearing issues , but the super loud, just because , kind of person) , then it's a-ok to join in the conversation & voice your opinions.
How would we tell if they’re hard of hearing or if they’re talking to someone who is hard of hearing?
Usually their volume is turned to the max and they say Huh? A lot. And a lot of the time they seem to have a certain tone of voice and seem to speak a bit slowed & enunciate their words a bit more. It's kinda hard to explain

Cheese is better in it's square, floppy form than when it's melted.
I am afraid to inform you that that is not in fact cheese. You are thinking of kraft singles, which are an edible plastic. Real cheese is found mostly outside USA, and maybe in Wisconsin. If it is not cheddar, brie, camembert, roquefort, gouda, etc.... it's not cheese. It's plastic.
No, we have real cheese in the US. I can get all of the cheeses you mentioned in my local grocery store.

-It is my opinion that the gas chamber and the electric chair should be brought back. The term "cruel and inhumane" should apply to the type of death endured by the victims, not the method of capital punishment for the criminals. -The condition of "time off for good behavior" should not apply to inmates incarcerated for crimes of sexual assault, especially involving children. Think about it: how many opportunities does a sex offender have to be exposed to a potential victim--behind bars? Stop giving a free pass to rapists, pornographers, and pedophiles. Put them in jail, and KEEP them in jail. -Stop allowing criminals to clog up the penal system: on capital cases, place a five-year limit on appeals. If, by the time the extension ends, that the defense has failed to make their case, the execution proceeds as ordered. -A death caused by drunk driving should be charged as 2nd-degree murder, not manslaughter. The intoxicated driver knew what the laws were before taking their first drink and getting behind the wheel. They shouldn't get 200 hours of community service and two years' probation, when the surviving family will be forced to grieve a loved one forever. -Potential foster homes and parents need to be screened more intensely than they have been in the past. Too many children in foster care are at the mercy of people who see them as nothing more than unpaid domestics, cash cows, and even as amusement for a pedophile. It needs to stop. NOW.
Yes! Even though I'm gay, I'm rather conservative and I think democracy is overrated. As you see, I'm not good at making friends. 🤣
Im right of center and have gay friends. People who don’t like you usually don’t like themselves and have to hiss venom on everyone else for whatever reason.
my unpopular opinion: the later green day albums (post-2009) are great, and shouldn't be shitted on
