ok then your fueling bigotry torwards the Japanese
sexism might not "disappear" overnight but it does improve, i never said that sexism doesn't exist in Japan, I said ppl need to stop have biased, bigoted (and possibly racist) views on the Japanese
I was "fueling" debate and convorsation, I'm not a boogie man out to destroy the Japanese culture..
This is why I'm glad I'm white and in the US, because I can talk about all the atrocities that Whites have perpetrated, that we're the moral majority but the numbered minority within the world just because we backstabbed our way to the top, and not have a thousand people call me a racist or a bigot..
Most cultures are screwed up in a multitude of ways, I was just pointing out that Japan is behind in the western world when it comes to sexism. I'm not saying the rest of the western world isn't sexist either.. Until women make the same as men for the same job, it's an obvious problem. And no, Japan isn't a high risk offender when it comes to women's issues, I'd say Africa and the Middle East are the big risks there..
Bottom line is though, culturism, patriotism and nationalism are some of my most hated sociological mechanics. Just because a person is born of a race, in a specific country doesn't mean they should agree with everything within that country in lockstep, or even defend it. I despise a lot about America right now, even though I was born and raised here and told to be a "good little American" and agree with my government and authority figures. Flag waving does nothing but create more divides and blinds people to the problems that really exist.
On Topic, I don't really care what people spend their 60 dollars on. If it's a wide eyed/sexualised plastic femshep statue, eh, whatever I guess..
Though I will say the dark phoenix by Kotobukiya is kinda cool..
