Give her a break! She’s 14 years old, and as we all know…teenagers are IDIOTS!
I mean, so are most people, but even the smart adults were once idiot teenagers.
In the movie she’s 16, so it’s maybe slightly better.
…yeah, speaking as someone who has been both 14 and 16… no
Second image won’t load for me :(
You think it will, but it won’t.
To be fair, though, human sex is way better than mermaid sex.
Watching some guy fertilize your eggs after you lay them … it just isn’t the same, you know?
I was thinking it would be more like dolphin sex.
Nah, mermaid be half-fish, not half-dolphin. Dolphins don’t have scales.
Though if it were half-dolphin mermaid… Then, yeah. I’d agree. By all accounts, dolphin sex is fantastic.
(And, yes, I’m also ignoring that not all fish do the ‘lay eggs and then fertilize them externally’ thing. Some fish actually do have actual intercourse for internal fertilization, using all the bits you’re familiar with to do it. Except that the males have two of them, for double the fun.)
Oh, it’s all fun and games until the next oil spill, or off shore drilling accident, or they start dumping garbage on you.
Little mermaid girl is going to end up gagging on industrial pollution and toxic algae blooms. That’s assuming she doesn’t starve because of depleted fisheries.
Meanwhile the one on land is eating Cheetos and drinking Mountain Dew.
Come to think of it, those are a lot like gagging on toxic waste. So I guess it all evens out.
So, the Little Trashmaid (well, a slightly less-dark version than your story)

Betcha on land they understand Bet they don’t reprimand their daughters
Mermaids are famously delusional about the lives of humans.
A forest would be so magical to them though.
Nah, blackflies.
I mean…whys it gotta be about the fly’s race?
