What We Think

Hormones offers a fairly balanced, if modern, look at youth culture. It touches on progressive topics but doesn't aggressively push ideology or denigrate tradition, keeping its 'woke' level refreshingly moderate compared to much of contemporary entertainment.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

"Hormones" is primarily a coming-of-age story focusing on relatable teen experiences. While it deals with issues like sexuality and social pressure, characters are well-rounded, and their identities don't supersede authentic personality and growth. Forced representation and overt narrative sacrifice for ideology are not central here.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The show addresses topics like premarital sex, sexuality, and youth rebellion, which might challenge traditional Thai cultural norms. However, it does so with nuance, generally depicting family and tradition with some degree of respect. It isn't aggressively anti-cultural, but certainly modernizes the portrayal.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

There are a variety of perspectives among characters and their families, including some more traditional voices. The series doesn't entirely dismiss conventional values but noticeably focuses on progressive themes without deeply villainizing alternatives.
