Just to confirm I read it right. You found that you couldn't comfortably watch Seinfeld with your girlfriend? Was that because she was uncomfortable watching it which made you uncomfortable too or you assumed that she would be offended and that's why it was uncomfortable to you?
- 63 5y agoShe was ostensibly fine with it, but it made me feel weird. It felt like I was endorsing the kinds of thought patterns represented. I knew she wouldn't be offended per se, but I didn't want her to get the wrong impression of me, and I also don't want to be a person who acts like that's normal for my own sake. There are 100% appropriate contexts to watch that and know that it's antiquated and that nobody present is endorsing it, but I had put it on intentionally because I wanted something light, and at that point it started getting too stressful.
