On This Instagram Page, People Share Unpopular Opinions And Here Are 50 Of The Most Polarizing Ones (New Posts)
Everyone is entitled to having their own beliefs. Some people keep them to themselves. Some like to blare them out every chance they get. And others have views so unconventional, they completely go against the status quo.
When not every opinion is greeted with open arms, we’re lucky to have the internet where we can spark a discussion with complete strangers. There’s an Instagram account dedicated to sharing some of the best posts from the popular subreddit called Unpopular opinion. From electric vehicles to stuffed animals, members of this community have something to say about virtually any aspect of life.
So get ready to dive into some of the best posts this account had to offer. Upvote the ones you agree with, and, if you want to stir some emotions, share your own disputable views in the comments below. Psst! After you’re done, be sure to check out Part 1 of this post right here.
This post may include affiliate links.
Sometimes, we're discouraged from expressing our unpopular opinions because of the adverse reactions we might get from the people around us. Whether we’re talking about politics, religion, or popular culture, sharing our deepest beliefs can make someone feel pretty irritated.
However, while some end up scratching their heads from confusion, others see a like-minded person and gladly show their support in heated discussions. After all, a controversial point of view does not instantly mean that it’s uncommon. When you push your fears of being the odd one to the side, it’s much likely you'll encounter others sharing the same thoughts as you.
Brandwatch, a digital consumer intelligence company, was on a mission to investigate the most popular unpopular opinions on social media. They looked at consumers’ mentions from January 1 to June 30, 2020, excluding news, retweets, and shares. Results showed that 1.6M people shared their controversial beliefs in this period. Also, there were 34% more mentions during the lockdown compared to the four months prior.
When it comes to the topics people touch on, the top ones were about characters in pop culture, TV shows, dislike of fandoms, and books. People shared their complaints about some of the bestsellers of the century and aired their grievances about how some shows have become outdated. For example, 34K mentions called out Friends "for being hugely popular, despite some aspects not being acceptable today."
The researchers also looked into Reddit, where 958K users shared their gripes. "It seems like lockdown got to Reddit users, too. Posts to r/UnpopularOpinions increased 105%." They found that many of these mentions touched on things that happened on the platform itself. Most of them were focused on sports players, subreddits, and seeing change as not being good.

VASECTOMIES FOR THE WIN! What's that? You say it's your body, and no one can tell you what to do with it? GOSH, as a woman, I just can't relate at all to that! LOL Just remember, folks, no pregnancy can happen without the presence of sperm. GET SNIPPED.

Totally agree - birth control has failed for me twice, resulting in my youngest two children - two different kinds of birth control at that - I'm now sterilised as I can't afford physically to have another child - but I'm so fed up of the responsibility always being mine - I was a tad upset that my husband wouldn't get the snip - I probably would've ended up getting sterilised anyway for peace of mind but I've had 4 children, I've carried them, birthed them, breastfed them for years of my life and taken tablets, had contraptions inserted into my cervix, had injections with horrid side effects I just had to ride out for months - my body has been through enough and at that point I really didn't want to go through anymore, but I did, and it floored me for months - I also have fibromyalgia and as such the recovery just took forever as the trauma of it caused my whole body to go into meltdown. My husbands contribution to our children was sex. Doesn't seem fair

Vasectomy. Like... No one of my friends can say Oh yes of course, we dont want another child so my husband will go to vasectomy. No. Every fu**ing man Is very offended when his woman starts with this topic. If She even starts - a lot of them just dont feel like that. Because woman Is responsible for birth control, she can be pregnant and - i know we are proud on it but still - destroy her body, she can give a birth and than breastfeed a baby for months up to years and than She should be responsible for birth control again And také hormons oř ovarysectomy or whatever. The man can't. Too big sacrifice. Selfish as f**k. Oh im so angry when im thinking about it

I never would have married someone like that. I had the conversation with my husband before we were married, and he agreed that an eventual vasectomy was our long-term birth control solution.

I don't understand how it's always the woman's fault if she gets pregnant unintentionally. Plus, vasectomies are reversible and much less expensive than a woman having a hysterectomy!
Leodavinci 2 years ago
No, they aren't reversible. They don't do a simple "snip" anymore like they did in the early days. The tube would often heal back together and the only sign was an unplanned pregnancy. Happened to a co-worker. Now they remove a part of the tube so that can't happen... which makes "reversal" more difficult and less likely to work.

There was a version of male birth control but they stopped selling it because the men taking it complained that “it gave them mood swings and headaches” and it was then considered inhuman even though female birth control does the exact same thing

Actually they stopped selling it because it was shown to cause PERMANENT sterility and impotence. But yeah, blame the whole 'mood swings and headache' angle.

If a woman wants to see a pregnancy through....and a man wants no part of being a parent....that man will be forced into 18 years of child support payments There is actually precedent of a woman, raping a man.....and that man still being forced to pay child support. If a woman wants to have an abortion, and a man desperately wants that pregnancy to be carried to term...well he's s**t out of luck. Now, i agree that men would absolutely jump at the chance to never have to worry about knocking up some random regretful encounter..... But...the ongoing declarations of "I HAVE ALL THE POWER" followed by "ooo responsibility tho, well i can't always remember to take a pill...everyday....at the same time...and ya know it's not really fair" Have grown a little stale

Why does a certain group always try to reinvent the wheel when it comes to this topic? Condoms have existed for centuries, using them is way easier and less intrusive than taking some king of a pill on a regular basis or having a vasectomy. Men have had full control over this matter for ages, and those who don't use the current solution wouldn't use any "new" solutions either. Besides, condoms also protects from many diseases, which other types of contraception don't.

I had a vasectomy when I was younger because I knew we didn’t want anymore children. I could always have it reversed if we changed our minds. Birth control shouldn’t always have to fall on the woman. They have enough in their lives to worry over!

if he has 150 partners, most are happy with one, what the f**k is this b******t. Oh you are confusing boys with men, yeah a boy will f**k anything that lets him, he also will do almost anything even snip his balls to get laid, issue is docs do have requirments for snipping they won't snip young people with no kids with out a legit reason for them not wanting to breed for liabilty and ethical reasons. Like I almost had it done in my 20s at time no doctor would do it for my age group unless I had at least one child first.

Men would find a way to make it emasculating. I know many men who haven’t had vasectomies just because they think it would make them less of a man. And one has two “accidental” children.

Those boys child, most guys would do it in a heart beat but because all s**t most docs won't do them till your certain age or got x kids already. Last time I looked into it the places offering said they wouldn't do it for some one in their 20s unless you already had at least one kid, for ethical reasons. And my cousin has damn thing done twice still has two babbies when he suppose to be fixed lol. He is f*****g pissed as hell had it redone when first didn't take, used a new more expensive dock with higher success raiting ended up with another kid. Third time having his balls snipped seems to be the charm no kids so far but he is in fear that s**t will reverse itself again lol I mean I know 3 guys say its nothing one can't get his reversed he is permantly steral, other 2 both had it come undone on its own. It just seems like comdoms are f*****g better then that s**t more I look into it. And yet I want kids one day so that like 1/4 chance it can't be reversed scares s**t out of me. Or else I would have it right now.

Aren't vasectomies easily reversible? Better than a lifetime of taking drugs (in my opinion).
Birma Gustafsson 2 years ago
Men should really think of a vasectomy as a birth control for themselves. It's much easier and simple than tying a woman's tubes, and it's also reversible! It's very difficult, if not impossible to reverse the tying of tubes. And while on the subject - if a woman decides she wants to tie her tubes, do NOT tell her she's too young, or that it's up to her and her future "husband" to decide if they want kids! A woman knows her mind and can make life long decisions for herself just as well as a man can!!

We could make a birth control pill for men, but they don't want the side effects that birth control gives women.
Christopher Kopperman 2 years ago
Why do you think there is so much research into male birth control? That isn't an unpopular opinion. Practically everyone wants that. But keeping an egg from dropping or getting fertilized is much easier then temporarily making you shoot blanks. Killing sperm is easy, putting them to sleep until you want to use them is much harder.
Brent Hollett 2 years ago
From what I've read on this, birth control for men hasn't been solved in a way that doesn't risk actual sterilization, like the pill does for women. Men don't have a menstrual cycle to manipulate. Their balls are always in the "ON" position.

Men CAN take birth control. They just won't, for exactly the same reason my husband wouldn't have a vasectomy, even though we both agreed very early on that we didn't want children. I couldn't take the pill, as I had reactions to them all, he "doesn't like" using condoms, so I had to use the withdrawal method. Had I become pregnant, I would have to have had an abortion, and deal with all that physical and emotional trauma — all because he wouldn't have a small operation. Selfish d**k.

Yeah soon as you find a way to do it with out permant damage risk have at it. Freaking the pill has risks but its less so then odds of vesectomie either failing to work, or failing to reverse.

There was a male pill. Unfortunately the side effects were too severe. What were they you ask? The same as some of the side effects of the female pill, but much milder. Yeah..... As someone who suffered a pulmonary embolism from birth control pills and could have died, that really hits hard.
Peter Korsten 2 years ago
The problem is that male birth control is a lot more difficult. Instead of dealing with one egg, you need to deal with millions of spermatozoa. Also: men don't get pregnant. If you take birth control pills as a woman, you have the situation in your own hands.

I'm guessing this person has never heard of Stealthing? Male birth control might work in a relationship, but not for a one-night stand, or a casual sexual relationship. As a woman, and the person saddled with all the consequences, I would never trust a man I was not in a committed relationship with to be responsible for the birth control and subsequently my future.

Read a study ince that women having sole access to birth control gave them a unique power in relationships. It was basically the stimulus for gender equality. Be careful what you ask for.

Lots of men do use birth control. It's called a condom. That's about the only method of birth control that is available for men with current medical science. There is no "men's birth control pill". You can't fault a man for not using something that doesn't exist. That said, there is one form of birth control that either person can practice that is guaranteed 100% effective: Don't have sex if you don't want a baby.
Rissie 2 years ago
Vasectomies, condoms? Birth control, aka taking hormones to manipulate hormones should not be used because it messes with some of our most basic physical systems. Not for men, not for women. Also, it only works because women have hormonal cycles to mess up to begin with. Men don't. And messing up sperm production seems even worse.

They developed male birth control but shut down the study saying the risk was too great. Men on the study reported depression, mood swings, weight gain, and lower sex drive. Same side effects women experience with birth control, and they justified it by saying it was more harmful to men and a higher risk because men weren't use to that and women are.

Whichever one has the lesser side effects should be the one we use. Women's birth control has pretty bad potential side effects, including a risk of blood clots. If they invent a men's birth control that has less severe side effects, they should take it.

USA = paradise No one forces anyone to use birth control, why women seem to use it more frequently would be that the woman is the likely to get pregnant(i know its obvious but thats the level we have devolved to) meaning they wantto make sure they are protected.

is this person unaware of the fact that condoms and vasectomy already exist?
So while it can be fun to share your controversial views online, they also let others say opposing views, have heated discussions, and see things from different perspectives. Anna Akbari, P.hD., is a sociologist, writer, and speaker who shared her thoughts on why unpopularity isn’t necessarily a bad thing in a piece on The Psychology Today.
She explained that if we want to be happy, successful, and feel of service, we don’t actually need to appeal to the masses. "See, we’re complicated beings, each with our own unique experiences, full of biases and contradictions and, hopefully, a point of view," she wrote. "Having a point of view is a good thing, even when that view isn’t universally embraced."
While we can wholeheartedly stand by one issue, we can also not see eye to eye on another. "Agreeing to disagree on most things in life is fine—assuming it doesn’t restrict the liberty or human rights of others. It’s when we start to think that we need to agree on everything all the time to merely function together that we get into trouble," Akbari mentioned.
Needless to say, popularity isn’t essentially bad. Lots of things that are commonly and generally accepted by our society are considered as "safe". Akbari explained that we don’t have to immediately or categorically reject the popular stuff but rather "selectively embrace it, or at least occasionally challenge it."
However, if your views are not clinging to the mainstream popular or if they tend to stir some unexpected or even rude reactions, "don't despair. You don’t need to bend toward conformity, and you may even be able to cash in—financially and socially—on stepping outside the conventional bounds."
She mentioned two rules that people who tend to lean into unpopularity should remember. The first one is that you should actually believe what you’re saying or doing. "Disagreeing for the sport of it is annoying and, rightfully, no one likes or respects you if you do that. So stop it," the sociologist advised.
"The second rule is to embrace your unpopular opinions with the knowledge and grace that not everyone shares your point of view," she continued. This rule can be quite tough since we humans have a general tendency to want others to agree with us. After all, it makes us feel heard and valued.
However, following this guideline "starts with a promise to both give up convincing other people to buy into your less popular opinions and to stop shaming them for their own thoughts and actions."
After that, it’s all about trusting yourself. If you believe that some things are just not right, don’t be shy and share your views with others because, chances are, there are people out there just like you. According to Akbari, there is value in dissent. "There’s often truth at the fringes and insight in unpopular perspectives. Greatness comes neither from blindly following nor from knee-jerk rejecting."
"Many of our greatest historical figures held really, really unpopular opinions. They did stuff that made people cringe or even retaliate against them. Going against the grain takes guts. And that courage is admirable, even if we disagree with what they’re saying or doing—but only when executed with integrity from a place of personal honesty," she wrote.

But I don’t, so I wont ever get that many likes and nobody will ever like me!” And the same for young boys, for that matter.

Calling out a brand, business or company on something they are doing that is fraud, like for example, randomly adding extra data and thus money onto your internet bill, gets people called as Karens all the time.

They don't cancel or change your plan back to what it was unless you call them five times.

But I don’t, so I wont ever get that many likes and nobody will ever like me!” And the same for young boys, for that matter. Both the “girls should look like that or nothing will do!” or “I don’t have a six-pack like him, so no woman will ever like me!”

Calling out a brand, business or company on something they are doing that is fraud, like for example, randomly adding extra data and thus money onto your internet bill, gets people called as Karens all the time. And these scammers get off scot free. They don't cancel your plan, when they were the ones calling you every week when you weren't a subscriber. They don't cancel or change your plan back to what it was unless you call them five times.

People commend Poland for taking in so many Ukranian refugees - yet African, Indian and literally any non-white students in Ukraine were restrained at the border, some were even beaten and abused. Poland doesn't need to be glorified for doing what is expected of them as human decency.

So this time BP copied an instagram account that copied reddit instead of copying reddit directly

I’m smiling and shaking my head at the fact that the hockey puck post was upvoted the most (of all topics discussed). Does this means that’s it’s the least polarizing of all the polarizing posts? Maybe the one thing we can all stand united on is that if we witness someone catch a ball or hockey puck at a game, we celebrate their win and let them keep it, guilt-free? 😁

Unpopulair opinion: Bubble tea is a waste of space and only popular because people say it's popular.

This s**t is nothing new. The hard reality is that people have been highlighting and pointing out and attempting to make better some of these issues for decades but the younger generation is just into calling them “boomers” and thinking that their revelations are new if unique snd the world needs to bend to their will. I get why customers are pissed office, some have good reason to be pissed off. Hell, how difficult is it to do your job with integrity?? BP is loaded with threads on what doesn’t work, what’s wrong and how things “should be”. It’s a hard lesson to learn that the world works for the ultra wealthy, not the little guy, yes it’s been getting worse, thank the GOP (the party of fear, gaslighting and greed). You want to make a difference, then invest in the work its going to take instead of being a huge part of the problem. Whining and bitching without learning what it takes to change things, just dismissing a whole generation IS A HUGE PART OFTHE PROBLEM!!!

No it isn't. Most of us appreciate other cultures. They aren't the same thing.
