Toronto-area school bus driver seen in vehicle with ‘Lolita’s Line’ sign in window removed from route

If this is the judgmental and ignorant hill you want to die on, go for it.
It's only "creepy" cause you would rather make assumptions instead of just doing 5 minutes of googling and reading about how the fashion trend came to share the terms.
It is literally just a coincidence.
The Japanese Lolita scene is probably more pedophilic than the book itself. You literally used a bunch of creeps to defend your pedo kink

Fuck shitty concepts of "professionalism" and "optics". I don't give a shit about pointless things. Those are just excuses for people to be judgmental of others for inconsequential differences. Anyone who uses them as a defense loses all respect from me
He was doing the job, anything else is irrelevant. The way he dresses doesn't have anything to do with how he drives.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]No task exists in a vacuum; optics are part of the job. Nobody can be forced to employ him in the position that he prefers. If he feels strongly about it, he can establish his own transportation company called Lolita's Bus Line and attempt to win the school district's contract on his own merit.
P.S. Moderating your own self-expression to accommodate the comfort level of a diverse audience is a healthy, mature part of human social interaction. You aren't obligated to do so, but you must expect friction and obstacles when you don't. There are times and places to let your true colors fly. It's wise to recognize that and seek out those settings.

Love how you assume I'm a fan of it just because I'm defending someone's right to their own personal expression. Classic leap of logic. Still just as baseless and made in ignorance to still try and claim the fashion trend has anything to do with sexualization of children. Sorry you're incapable of differentiating it. You should work on that.
And the Lolita fashion scene isn't the same thing as the otaku lolicons. Again that's only a tangential relationship from how the term was popularized. But can't really expect people who make wild leaps of logic to care about something as small as nuance.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Yea. Just entirely fuck the logic that this argument is premised on. People should be allowed to express themselves freely and others should learn to cope with others being different. Fuck anyone who says otherwise.
Optics aren't part of the job. That's utter bullshit. The only thing that is part of that job is driving the bus. Anything else is irrelevant.
People shouldn't have to moderate their self-expression based on the arbitrary sensibilities of others. That isn't "healthy and mature" that's restricting and oppressive.
What's healthy and mature is learning to cope with the fact others are different and not judging others based on those arbitrary differences or forcing them to conform to your expectations of them.
If you expect others to conform to make you more comfortable even if they aren't doing anything other than existing (which is what this driver was doing) in a way that is different from you, you can go get fucked. If you're uncomfortable, the only person whose problem it is to deal with it is you. You don't get to force others to change for you.

hey dude, i know you meant well but i think some cranks here are ruining the discussion
I'll proudly ruin the discussion of people trying to be judgmental twats. Thanks.

Oh, absolutely that's true, and I hope I didn't imply otherwise. It goes both ways. What's healthy and mature is learning how to meet people where they're at and avoid conflict. Sometimes that means overlooking things that make you uncomfortable, and sometimes that means being mindful of how your own appearance and behavior can make others uncomfortable.

And they would be in the wrong for making judgment based on their assumptions instead of the actions.
So yes, can't believe parents are so uptight and judgmental.
Yeah sure, but the average person is real dumb. Theres a reason paint cans say do not drink.

On one hand, the driver should have known the context of "lolita" stuff being super creepy.
On the other hand, if he was wearing any other fun costume, and not cross dressing, this would not have been a problem at all. There's nothing inherently wrong with drag. There are well respected Toronto comedians that wear drag for characters and they are great.

Just a modern day freedom absolutist /narcissist, who thinks that it's unfair they have to live in a world with other people that have their own opinions on things and that actions can have reactions from the fact that we are all existing together in this world.
Honestly same kind of logic as crypto heads and war mongerers who find it annoying others complain about them, burning down the world, because it makes them happier and wealthier.
The idea that world needs to get out of their way to let them do what they want us kinda the whole problem cause you have to empathize with others and so many have decided that's lame. -

The book is anti-pedophile. The people that don't understand it's about the lies predators tell themselves are dropping huge self reports for narcissism at best.
