Does Enter think kids would give a shit about those topics? And this message would only appeal to the Anti-SJW crowd who wouldn’t like his shitty show either.
Don't you think four year olds keep up with random flame-wars on the Internet?

Now, wait a minute... didn't Enter say in his video "Satire: You're Doing It Wrong" that you shouldn't satirise people? Man, this guy's a fucking hypocrite.


Also, if this is supposed to be a world where the less mature rule, then shouldn't that make boys the dominant gender, since they mature more slowly? Man, the world of Growing Around isn't even consistent with itself.

How does he not understand that, on average, most girls are never bigger and more intimidating than most boys. Their bodies mature fast, but that’s so they can get pregnant.
It also gives more to the creepiness, since he has to be aware that most kids hit adolescence around 12, where sexuality and potential pregnancy become a real threat. Surely these kids, with no adults to stop them and educate them, would be fucking like rabbits, right?
 
I apologize if this has been brought up before, but do you guys think that Growing Around is a sign of a more insidious nature for Enter.

I'm not saying that Enter's a pedophile. Despite being a bit too in to kids show, I feel like he's relatively harmless. Growing Around however, seems like a really mean spirited IP, with some of the content bordering on "torture porn", which Enter notoriously hates. I dunno, maybe intentionally maybe subconsciously, I feel that Enter resents adults. It's been pointed out before, but society Growing Around is a legitimately dystopian for adults.

I feel like it's one of those things Mr. Enter expects no one to ask about. Ordinarily I would agree, but I feel like you can't get away with that when you build an entire world around
age reversal (which many have pointed out makes no sense). It's also Mr. Enter, a guy that's built a fanbase off of harshly criticizing children's cartoons.

I'm sure the idea has been posited before, but it is one that ought to be considered. Enter definitely seems to have a vindictive streak in him, and he's all but stated that the adults in his youth were ignorant at best and abusive at worst.

So Enter wants a world where kids rule yet kids treat the more mature humans as second class citizens?
In a weird way the concept could be cool if Enter let go of the notion that Growing Around should be a kids show. Have some robot overlords running the government from the shadows, change the backstory, and switch the focus to an underground network of adult freedom fighters like a reverse KND. I know it goes against what Enter wants, but I think he unintentionally created a world with potential.

I've said this before, but who's to say the kids aren't learning about reproduction from, say, human body books? Those are a thing in real life too, so what's stopping kids from reading them and learning where babies come from? Or do the parents/school just tear out the pages on the reproductive system, and that's why sex ed is a thing? (I've heard the pages taste just like that Bambi tape.) Not to mention, we also have Google, in case kids are curious to know anyway.

As for the part about girls maturing, I can kind of see where Enter's coming from - when I was in middle school, the girls in my year level were generally taller than the boys. However, as we see from elephants and giraffes, taller doesn't necessarily mean more massive, and I think that's where the fallacy comes in. (Not sure which fallacy, though - false dichotomy, perhaps?) How is Enter such an idiot when it comes to writing scripts?
 
What is with the exceptional newbies this thread attracts?

It’s not “mean spirited.” That’s a bullshit mentality that enter uses. It’s obvious he writes characters as straw men of those who have wronged him, very similar to Randy Stair’s Ember Ghost Squad, but I doubt it’s insidious. Obviously Fetishized though.

The concept could never and will never be cool. It was bad when Disney did it, and worse when he did it. There is no saving it.

You’re applying real world technology to a world that has no real world tech. Obviously his Orwellian world is hyper censored. It has re-education camps and police that are essentially the nazis. Not the mention the “home for the childless.”

And nothing in this has to do with script writing. He’s incompetent, but this is one of his world building blog posts, not a script.
Also, stop defending his logic. You’re making it obvious that you’re still a fan of his to some degree, which might explain your desire to one up him

I mean, it's debatably mean spirited. I think comparing Mr. Enter to Randy Stair is a bit ridiculous though. It's been a minute since I've looked in to Randy and his Ghost Squad but I don't think Enter was, or will ever be, like Randy Stair. One's delusional, the other was psychotic. Enter's much more like Chris Chan.

As for the fetish stuff, he certainly feels some kind of way about cross dressing.

I think at this point GA is just Enter's escapist fantasies and he's just LARPing that it's an actual series cause the way he scripts is not how you script for a TV show or movie, and no network will buy his ideas nor any animator would support him.

Pretty much. Realistically, besides the people trying to poke holes in his world building, does any one really care about Growing Around?
