>>37139092Imagine if Gym Leader Whitney, "the incredibly pretty girl" was kidnapped along with all the young trainers that admire her. Imagine that the kidnapper tied all of them up and forced Whitney to use them as human toilets for an entire month.
Do you really think their relationship would ever be the same after that? No. They wouldn't admire Whitney any longer. All admiration comes from a place of idealization. After being forced to swallow Whitney's shit for a month, which smells just like any other human's shit, they'd be sick of her. They wouldn't be able to forget the trauma. Every time they looked at Whitney, they would remember that terrible situation, the smell of her ass and the taste of her shit.
She is still the same cute gym leader that everyone admires and wants to date, but for those young trainers, she is a smelly human being and the idealization is gone. She is just as human as they are. Just as pathetic and smelly.
Even though both Whitney and her young fans KNEW, logically, that she was human and had an asshole from the very beginning, everything changed after that event. Even though they don't really know anything they didn't know before.
That is the humiliation of being exposed as a human being when you are such a cute girl that you don't even seem human to your admirers.
