       I searched up the dictionary definition of "wholesome", because I was bothered by how it simultaneously means "positive and sweet" and "sexless", and it turns out the entire word just sucks.Not only it equates not having sexual components with being positive, it also ties being in good health to it.Why is this word so popular with people in progressive spaces?

       @comrade_lecter This might be another Americanism leaking through. Since wholesomeness is tied so firmly with definition 1 here in America, that it is hard to conceive of something being both healthy and not wholesome. It is probably a function of how puritanical America was and still is.

       @comrade_lecter I think there's elements of puritanism, healthism, and saneism all fusing together with the use of this word.
