>>56948986>did i fuck up?well, yea, you got normalfag probed. Shoulda said something basic that everyone knew like Harley Quinn or idk Android 18. You appreciate something outside of their consensus filter and now they don't know how to process the new info.
normies take offence to anything that isn't a household name. They think you're being weird and arrogant and aloof or something for having a taste that wasn't served to them as "safe horny" and acceptable.
in your defense OP, I think Candice is a super great pick and if I was there I'd have congratulated you on your patrician taste. Her design says "older teen babysitter/ older sister's friend", almost cheerleader-y. The appeal is universal to men young and old. I also appreciate the exotic eroticism of the Ainu people of Hokkaido that I feel she is racially-coded as but that might just be a headcanon.
I also think she could be reasonably interpreted as being a young adult. You're fine in my book but be more careful around normies.
I find these waifu conversations in public to be a total minefield, people WANT to get mad at you and judge you. Male sexuality and heterosexual attraction is so demonized with the youth of today that its actually scary. beta/overly-feminized men and especially women will get visibly enraged if you give a "wrong" heterosexual answer. As if which anime character you feel a connection to is anyone's damn business. Which is really fucked up considering how much lip-service people nowadays pay towards "tolerance" but they clearly crave puritanical rules surrounding attraction so they've adapted weird new woke ideas about how young healthy egg-bearing women are actually OFF LIMITS and problematic. They'd literally rather you just be a fag, it'd be less scary to most modern people.
hetero men need a nu-sexual revolution soon. Candice is hot OP. HOT.
