Misperceiving towards plastic surgery

Problem Statement:
Majority of fanatics fans or followers become solidly believe that any type of plastic surgeries will be a success as long as they have money which is due to some of Korean idols that perfectly transform their appearances after going through it. This is resorting them to neglect in seeing the whole picture or the possibilities that the plastic surgery may turn to a failure.

Problem statement :
1. Dark and silent settings in horror movies leave psychological impacts that trigger society's mindset of fear and danger.

2. Hopeless romantics tend to have unrealistic expectations in their love life as portrayed in romance movies.

3. In keeping up with modern audiences, swearing and cursing which are often used in movies socio-linguistically affect the society. 

4. The concept of 'fear over respect' in movies that involves superior people leave a moral influence in the society's perception of a leader. 

5. The "Mary-sue and Gary-stu" 's term for characters psychologically impacts the society's definition of beauty and perfection for both genders.

Simply put, fanservice refers to material in a work of fiction or in a fictional series which is intentionally added to please the audience, usually carrying a sexual undertone. 

Fanservice include but not limited to suggestive situations, hidden innuendos and even blatant erotic scenes strategically covered up to escape censorship.

Problem Statement.

1) LOLI/ SHOTA SUBCULTURE: Subculture that sexualizes characters that are young children or depicted to look like young children.

In modern Anime and Manga, fanservice has evolved from being a special treat for niche viewers into a necessity in order to keep viewers from watching, especially for a new upcoming anime. This is now a huge problem when there are animes that feature characters depicted as young children are also roped into this unwritten, unspoken, unchallenged rule. This caused the birth of the Loli/Shota and unsurprisingly, cases of Pedophilia.

2) FUJOSHI/FUDANSHI SUBCULTURE: People that are overly interested and attached to Homosexual relationships in anime and manga

The main issue rooted deep into this subculture is the sexualization of homosexual relationships, which degrades real homosexual relationships to eye-candy purely for the entertainment of a niche group. In this case, Fujoshis and Fudanshis who view homosexual relationships through rose tinted glasses instead of seeing them as two very real people facing very real social issues depending from where they are from.

3) WAIFU SUBCULTURE: Males that have heavy delusions about a female character in a manga or anime. 

Children and homosexual relationships are not the only things being sexualized, a large group of male fans also heavily tend to fetish 2-D characters in itself. Their view about women are warped into seeing them based on illogical tropes rather than seeing them as a complex being with a personality. This will cause obsessive tendencies and also even lead to a disinterest in real women.]]> 2017-02-05 16:02:43 UTC https://padlet.com/asyrafsyahir/717topicdiscussion/wish/151666595 SPORTS https://padlet.com/asyrafsyahir/717topicdiscussion/wish/151735124 Topic Statement: Dark truth in sports

Problem Statement: 
1. The risk of getting injured that may lead to permanent injury or even worse. 
2. Require a large investment of time and can disturb the time with family and study.
3. Give the player pressure to perform well and win in any competition and can cause an emotional disturbance.
4. Need to invest a lot of money to buy the sports equipment for the beginners.
5. Those who only focus on sports may neglect their study if they addicted to the particular sport and make them lose interest. 
They also need to consider to skip classes because of training or tournament.]]> 2017-02-06 08:00:01 UTC https://padlet.com/asyrafsyahir/717topicdiscussion/wish/151735124 TRAVELLING muiznasr https://padlet.com/asyrafsyahir/717topicdiscussion/wish/151740225 Topic Statement:   Travelling, Misinterpreted.

Problem Statement:

In the current society, lots of people misinterpreted the journey of the travellers by thinking that travelling are:
  1. Easy.
  2. Expensive and only wealthy people can go.
  3. Fun
  4. Relaxing

In fact, there are lots of sacrifies and conflict that would like to happen along the trip. Besides, problems such as hunger, lost in an unknown place, lost something important and illness always occured during the journey. There are also many places to travel with low fare cost in this world.

Allah stated about travel in Surah Ankabut, [29:20]
Say, [O Muhammad], "Travel through the land and observe how He began creation."

Problem Statement: 

1.       Excessive consumerism of caffeine due to media advertising that portrays how caffeine can help you stay awake, when in such cases; it doesn’t. 
2.       Caffeine or coffee in general becomes a trend when in fact it’s only just a cultural practice. Like in America for instance, they consume a high level of coffee intake, in which it gives off a sociological impact, that almost everyone takes coffee; some even too much on a daily basis.

 

The effects of caffeine on one’s self depend solely on the consumer. Sometimes coffee isn’t just meant for everyone, you know?

Problem statement:
Not a day passed by without any encounter with someone who wears make up whether its a smear of lipstick or a full face covered with all the essentials a make up junkie would need. For some reasons, it has been a trend for people to make shame of those who actually enjoy wearing make up for the sake of expressing themselves. People who wear make up are often judged to be:

1. Insecure of their own beauty and the use of make up is always said as a tool to cover up their flaws instead make up is actually a tool of strength.
2. Meant to impress men
3.  Expensive]]> 2017-02-13 09:47:02 UTC https://padlet.com/asyrafsyahir/717topicdiscussion/wish/153372595
