I find it so weird and creepy that strangers are obsessed with the sexual activity of other strangers. Or just anything that literally has zero impact on them, but is suddenly an issue once they know it exists.

Makes me think of a Marcus Aurelius quote...

Take away your opinion, and then there is taken away the complaint: "I have been harmed." Take away the complaint that "I have been harmed" and the harm is taken away.

It's no one's problem but your own and no one can fix your problems but you.
