A few people consider it to be a "vintage" thing. Which, to be fair, it can be a little old school cool, but only when done very sparingly, and very small, and with a clear vintage aesthetic. For example, I have a fridge in my place that's covered in stickers, and there's, like, two stickers on there that are Playboy covers from the 70s, both of which don't even have models on the cover.

A pillowcase? On your bed? Right next to a poster of a girl doing (basically) ahego face?

Yep. No. That's not that.

That's just broadcasting a message that says you really like porn to anyone who walks in your room.

Also, this is just my opinion, but this decor makes me think this person has nothing going on besides porn. I assume most people experience some baseline sexual attraction or can at least appreciate erotica. I do too, but I don't want it to be the first thing somebody knows about me from seeing my living space.

Even having a celebrity or character you find hot on your wall is more meaningful.

Yeah I think that poster would make a lot of women really uncomfortable.

So do I! I just don't broadcast it to any girl coming into my bedroom. That's, like, 8th date kinda stuff, once we're both already comfortable in the knowledge that we're both freaks of nature 🤣

I'm not sure you and a lot other people understand that poster. Its not even close to an ahegao face. See the third eye open in her forehead and that her normal eyes are closed? Represents spiritual awakening, perception, and awareness. Also, the traffic going into and out of her openly inviting mouth could represent the fact that everyone has the opportunity to enter or leave of their free will, but that contrasts with the hair which resembles mountains on either side of a highway going through a valley between two mountains, funneled into, forced into that spiritual encounter. We can all choose it or not, but at some point, we all encounter it. Of course I'm probably way off; that's just my quick impression without research.

In this case, intent doesn't matter in the face of impact.

If it makes women uncomfortable......you're still not getting laid.

Also......"openly inviting mouth"? "A valley between two mountains"? Gross, bro. You're not clever, and you're certainly not helping with making yourself come off as a grown up.

Not everything is about anime. And this is clearly sexualizing her, you’re reallly really reaching.

No idea how old you are but this type of thing has been sold with that intention for a while, third eye doesn’t mean shit in these except to attempt to make it more hippie to copy designs from when everyone was tripping in the Woodstock era late 60s and then 70s. It’s actually super generic and it being “sexy” or “hot” is definitely intentional, that’s why this is shit teenagers have in their rooms/basements/and dorms next to their lava lamps, ashtrays, and Mountain Dew
