Honest Content refers to the way Chris believes that, in order to be "honest," you must tactlessly give away far too much private and/or personal information about yourself.
While honesty may be the best policy, Chris has a poor grasp of what honesty is or when it's inappropriate to be "honest." Worse still, he seems to think the only way to attract a woman is to be unfailingly honest.
However, Chris will usually not be honest about things that actually warrant it, like he honestly didn't really go on a date with a girl named Chloe or that he was honestly fooled by trolls or how he honestly never went to Redmond. Likewise, according to Bob[1] Chris never tells him anything, suggesting that he's not honest with his own father.
Origin
The term "Honest Content" is derived from Chris's DVD which has a parental advisory for "Very Honest Content."
Likewise, it appears as a content descriptor in the ESRB rating for Christian Weston Chandler's Adult Chronicles. The game's Honest Content is apparently enough to earn it an M rating (for users 17 and older).
Honesty
Upon meeting you, Chris will be "honest" about his:
- Virginity
- Pink eye
- Fecal incontinence
- Love quest
- Autism
- Invented phobias
- Recycling
- Donald Duck impersonation
- Genealogy
- Masturbation
- Need to wear a bra
His honesty, however, isn't limited to the horrible, but also the inane. When mentioning his name-change, he always credits both God and The Bear. Similarly, when talking about Sonic being his childhood hero he always clarifies that his hero was originally The American Rabbit. Whether or not he thinks he'll hurt the Rabbit's feelings if he doesn't make that distinction is unknown, though judging by the... illuminating conversations Chris had with Alec it's entirely possible, since Chris believes that all fiction characters are "real" to some degree.
Psychology
We can assume, for the most part, that his use of the word "Honesty" (and how it differs from the correct use of the word) is due to his autism. Being the man child that he is, he must take everything literally, going so far as to not edit his own videos when he makes mistakes (in one of his most important videos, he stumbles on the words within 3 seconds, but instead of restarting the video, he continues), as this is all "honest".
