Opposition Paradox

"(The) Opposition Paradox" is a term credited to the philosopher C.M. Nutter for describing when people are unwilling to try new things that others recommend without a logical reason other than to simply provide opposition to the idea of trying something new.
Donna recommended her and Steve go to Chinese food for dinner. Steve opposed the idea even though he never tried Chinese food. Donna pushed and eventually Steve conceded and they had Chinese food for dinner. After trying the food Steve fell in love with Chinese food wonder why he opposed it and was never willing to try before. Therefore being a victim of the Opposition Paradox.

When a women is going to high school and is fit much because she has PE and is active, she is watching a netflix at night but active during the day. When she is turning 18 and is finally old enough to consume alcohol she starts consuming more alcohol and calories, but it is no problem, beacuse of the her being active at daytime, but when they graduate from high school they dont have this active lifestyle at daytime, and they usually ends up at more parties, and watching even more netflix. This results in gaining weight.
