I'm sorry to post this here but I wanted to try and start a (sane!) discussion about this topic as it's currently burning down the AoS fandom and creeping into the MCU fandom as a whole.
What do you think of these two as a couple? Does the fact that Chloe is dating LP change the way that you view her?
I don't know LP or CB. I only know what they have both done and said *publically* so I can't know if they should be together, but I can say that I don't understand why they *are* together. Also, my opinion of CB as a person hasn't changed because of what she has done and said in matters/situations/interviews unrelated to LP.
This all said, I *am* interested in hearing what her castmates think about them being a couple, but only if those castmates *want* their opinion made public.

I don't understand why they are together either, but I guess there must be something about him she likes or she wouldn't be dating him. What that is, *I* have no idea, but in the words of the kids these days, "Do you, boo!"  It doesn't really change my opinion of CB either and it doesn't affect me directly, so... Now if LP somehow ends up on AoS, then yes, I will be disappointed. I didn't know who he was before the Japan incident and I don't really follow him now. |

Honestly, I think LP plays to his fanbase in his videos and does/says whatever he needs to to get YT clicks. |

I had to look up Logan Paul on Wikipedia to know who he was. He sounds very immature and perhaps a bit misogynistic, but the page described just his public persona. He may be a very different person in private. As to why she is dating him, the Wikipedia page cites an Entertainment Weekly article that quotes her as saying that she dates him: [Note: I had to replace a "u" with an asterisk in the above quote or it would look like she was comparing Paul to an Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. character] Wikipedia also said that Paul makes over $1 million a month, which a lot of people would find attractive. As a general rule, I do not seek out information on celebrities' private lives. In fact, for the bulk of the cast of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., I do not even know whether they prefer men or women, much less who they are dating. Unless Paul is abusing Bennet or pushing her to be a drug addict or something like that, I would prefer not to judge. |

I wish I knew what it's like to not have to know *everything* about a thing you like. |

Just to clarify, if I had simply copied and pasted Bennet's comment without editing, it would have shown as:
This would have given the amusing but false suggestion that Chloe Bennet's taste in men resembles that of Jemma Simmons more than that of, say, Daisy Johnson. As amusing as that is, it would be an incorrect answer to the question of what Bennet sees in Paul.

I'll be spending next weekend with some family I like and trying to avoid any remotely controversial conversations with others that I spend the rest of the year avoiding
