Why does the King of the Ocean have to be demonized anyway. First of all, where did this term even come from. I always thought it was just the name of that dude in Aquaman, Jason Momoa, the guy from the movie where Amber Heard got kicked out after losing her lawsuit with Johnny Depp and then the second movie got blocked, but apparently now it’s not even about that, King of the Ocean now seems to mean a guy who dates a bunch of people and makes everyone feel like they’re the only one even though they all kind of know they’re not, which makes me wonder, does that mean every American guy I know is a King of the Ocean. Honestly I don’t have any problem with Kings of the Ocean, at most I’d just be like wow, impressive, impressive, impressive, but if you’re gonna act like you’re not doing it while clearly doing it, then bro you’re just embarrassing, exposed. Besides the real Kings of the Ocean, the rest are probably just those who wish they could be but actually suck at time management, can’t provide any emotional value, and are just plain lazy. And look at Japan, they already industrialized this whole King of the Ocean thing into the host club industry, obviously it’s a legit skill, otherwise would those male hosts be making millions a year, that’s still money, still value, people see value that’s why they pay, so why demonize an effective skill.
And also, why is it always the ocean. I remember when I was back in China during college breaks, I started hearing about "fishery management" and I was like what the hell is a fishery, does that mean I can only have one fish, like if I want to go out for dinner I can only text you and can’t text others, wait to see who replies first, otherwise what, I just sit there waiting, if no one replies in ten minutes I’ll just go eat by myself okay, I get hungry fast, or you know what, you could just make a group chat and I’ll throw my message in there, how does that make me a fishery manager, why discriminate against people who value efficiency, and now we’ve upgraded to the whole ocean, is that supposed to be a compliment, I doubt it’s for people like me but honestly I don’t feel like I did anything wrong.
Later when I started working, I was gossiping with a production manager and she told me about some girl she called a residual girl and I asked why and she gave me a whole list and I just nodded oh but didn’t know how to respond and then she asked if I was a residual girl myself and I said probably not but then I got curious, what does that even mean, literally residual means residue, waste, right, though residue can be useful like I personally love zaopo hotpot it’s delicious especially in Hainan, but usually people use those words to mean things nobody wants, leftovers, so by that logic the term leftover woman is also discriminatory since it implies unwanted, left behind because it has no value, but residual men, seems like everyone still wants them, so what about residual women, are they wanted or unwanted, I honestly can’t figure out the definition and had no idea how to respond.
Then I heard there’s also a term Queen of the Ocean and I kinda reject that, why does King not have to be married but Queen has to have a partner, why not just call it Sea God like Poseidon holding his trident and he’s hot but is Apollo hotter, I gotta think about that, still Apollo I guess, he’s the Sun God after all, I like the sea but I am the sun, the sun is hotter okay because the sun carries the whole galaxy forward which means you lying in bed reading this are traveling a hundred thousand miles through the universe every day without even moving and the only reason you’re not burned alive by all that speed is because we have an atmosphere and the Earth has a magnetic field, isn’t that amazing, such good design.
But the sea, it’s just the liquid on the surface of one of the planets orbiting the sun, it even gets pulled by the moon causing tides and is affected by the magnetic field, so unstable, what do I need it for, sure no sea no life but without the sun there’s nothing, not even the sea, wasn’t the Big Bang all about heat, not water right, so in conclusion I probably have nothing to do with the Sea God, I’m the Sun God.
