Has anyone else taken a look at this anime? I want to know your thoughts. I stumbled across it on accident the other day, I am 3 episodes in and quite like how it's going but I am still on the fence about it.
I am a woman and do not associate with the tenets of feminism. A lot of my female friends consider that "blasphemous and harmful to the cause" but I'll elaborate on specifically why I feel the way I feel.
First and foremost, rape is not something that solely occurs between a man to a woman. For true equality I'd really like to see more acknowledgement on men who are also the victims of rape. I absolutely loathe men and women who claim that men "cannot" be raped, that's entirely untrue. I have a huge issue with seeing news reporters essentially laughing and mocking the very idea of female pedophiles like it's some mythical creature. Female pedophiles DO exist that rape both male and female children. It's not anything to be laughed or mocked about.
If feminism really wanted to push for true gender equality they'd acknowledge the severe inequality that exists towards both sexes. One such example : breast cancer awareness versus testicular cancer awareness. Both are severe and deadly yet one gets an overwhelming support base whilst the other gets pushed into the shadows. Even laughed about. Testicular cancer is not now, nor will ever be, "funny".
Men essentially being labeled as "pedophiles" for showing any form of friendliness towards children. I see it all the time where fathers will take their children to the park and get dirty looks shot at him from all the women assuming he's there simply to "oggle" at the children. That is inherently wrong just as it's also inherently wrong to label a woman a "slut" simply for wearing shorts and a tank top on a hot day, or assuming she's "asking for it". No one, both male or female, is ever "asking" to be raped or assaulted. That's just absurd.
Men being classified as "whimps" or "pussies" for holding a profession that in society's eyes is more of a "woman's" job. I see it all the time where professions like "male nurse" is flat-out ridiculed. Can someone explain to me why that's funny? I have encountered many wonderful and helpful male nurses, I do not consider them less manly or in any way amusing.
I could go on forever, at the core of this subject I do not associate with the tenets of feminism because to claim that one gender is persecuted and then to turn around and persecute the other gender, is hypocritical and wrong.
I am for overall equality and fair-treatment of EVERYONE, man, woman, trans-gender, gay, straight, anything.

Polish street performer Mariusz Goli. As a fellow Polski and guitar player this guy blows me away with how good he is. The street performance that put him on the map was done in Katowice, Poland and was largely improvised.
Street performer skill level : Polish

The guy with the bicycle cart of Mexican Food with a squeaky horn attached sat outside my window and honked his squeaky horn in tune with my guitar playing and then rode off when I was laughing too hard to continue playing.
Well played sir.

Had coffee... puked coffee... sat on the bathroom floor sobbing and crying due to the pain of puking coffee.
That my friend is like a living Randy Marsh. He came up to me today and is all "I think I have cancer... but at least I can get legal weed in all the states!" and then he started singing Buffalo Soldier.
At least he doesn't use his balls like a hoppity hop... yet...

"But but but... we have to rescue him!"
"What you call cat rescue I call cat kidnapping"
"But he is so small and all alone and would fit in the palm of my hand"
"Exactly. The easier to kidnap!"
"That's not... just... why... *sigh* you win hahaha"

That apparently fish antibiotics are the same as people antibiotics, and they work the same way... and they're way less expensive. And you can just buy them from the pet store...
I suppose the downside is they're not necessarily FDA regulated and you need to do some medical research in regards to which antibiotics work well for what condition, and in what dosage.
Good for zombie apocalypse though.

Was unable to repair a customer's guitar bridge, it's pulling apart where the pegs go in instead of being a glue issue. The entire bridge needs replacement.
Also couldn't figure the date on a Stradivarius copy violin. It has the most unusual metal tuning pegs instead of standard wood, I was puzzling over it all day looking up information but found nothing useful.

More compliments in regards to my music from skilled professionals, also more encouragement in regards to playing professionally.
Working 12 to 8, then coming home with barely enough time to make onigiri and other foods for dinner for the man and I. Haven't decided which other foods yet, will come to me slowly as I starve to death for 8 hours at work.
I personally say no. Though I am not opposed to stuff like Suicide Girls, except the man is opposed to sharing. But if I was single... then maybe.
