Free Talk:
When asked what kind of father he would be Teen Top’s Leader CAP replied with the following nonsense

The title is sensationalist, but that is basically what he said. After his remark incited controversy he replied with a standard non-apology. The fans responded with their expected juvenile stupidity “It was a joke”, “Oppa didn’t mean it”, “Even if you don’t find it funny don’t get in the way of him making a joke” (all paraphrased and repeated by multiple users), not even realizing the dangers of excusing this way of thinking. Yes CAP is only 19 (21 in Korean Age), but he is not a child, and that does not excuse him and we chat a bit about parental discipline, sexism, and unfairness.
Disclaimer: Neither of us are parents.
