The weird ithing is introducing the concept of gayness through a cartoon childrens watch. I'm not talking about other Japanese anime, I'm talking about THIS one.
Children watch this and the Japanese writers wouldnt introduce that. Gayness is more open in the USA than in Japan. It's a conservitive state and it shows on that through the views the people hold it there. And if the Middle East is more on the conservative side, hooray for them.
Comparing buneary to a cross-dresser is plain ridiculous

If people think of Harley has a homo fine. The writers wouldnt intend that as his personality. So what moms sheild their kids from homo's? It's what THEY feel is right for their kids, just like most parents shield them from guns, or beer, or smoking. Your asking people be open to that idea saying their oversensative? In the same sense, your being insensative to people who feel/view/religious or whatever the case may be about the idea of gayness.
I grew in Japan, so I know that there are closeminded persons, in facts theres tons, possibily millions of them all in the neighborhood, but its their system of belief of shielding that from their children.
Going back: No, they're not. We ALL prejudice. We can't stop it. People were prejudice after the terrisits attack for anyone who were Muslims or wore those clothes. People are prejudice when they see a black man alone with them on an elevator. In all these sense, we overeact because we assume overselves to one way. And if some people are more on the conservative side, WAY to go for them. Their not oversensentive. They are simply trying to protect their children from a world that may confuse them according to their views, values, or religious minds.
On topic: Magmortar, Paul would only get it if he trained or unless he already had it. No way would he level up a Magby/Magmar. The writers HAVE been pullig some suprises so Paul winning is an unexpected one
Oh no what have I done?
..........
I am wondering what Ash's 6th pokemon will be, you know I wonder how Ash will get his 6th pokemon. We need a new way for Ash to capture a pokemon *thinks* Has Ash ever had an accidental capture before, and no I don't think cyndaquil counts. Yeah Ash should be looking through his bag, and a Riolu walks up to him and Ash walks a way and Riolu sees a Pokeball and starts to play with it. Ash turns around and sees Riolu playing with, tries to stop it, but Riolu presses something and gets captured, I think it would be awesome if that happened in the first few minutes, and the rest of the episode is Ash deciding to keep it.
Make it a two parter.
Like I said, I was talking about THIS show. Clearing looking at the short skirt flying chicks, its pretty easy to see where THAT show stands.
Pokemon, it wont have it. The fact a POKEMON or a person in this cartoon show is that persona is just ridiculous. "Oh, yeah, honey, you know your cute bunny friend there? She cant marry your male Pikachu cause she prefears her own cute bunnies?" There should be somethings we need to shelter from our kids. Whether it be guns, smoking or something as the sexuality of a person.
A foreign exchange student is ONE view, on one idea. Thats not defy every other person there. Sure, like you said there are SOME liberal. But the MAJORITY of Japanese people are conservative. Like you said, their prejudice against foreigners. Am I calling them retarted for feeling that way no? Why do they feel that way? It's not somethign their used to. Just like people here or wherever feel towards homosexuality. And what excatly show I call them? Special people?
Homosexuals and lesbians is more polite. And excuse me? Just about every magical girl show has girls in short skirts. That does NOT mean they are all sluts and crap. And FYI, Sailor Moon was all about love, friendship, and compassion.It's obvious as to why it's one of thebiggest animes ever.And for someone to be Conservative, they basically have to be Christian. Less than 1% of Japanese are Christian. And I'm not saying all Japanese are all like "HURR LETS LEGALIZE GAY MARRIAGE! GAY RIGHTS!!!!" I'm saying their isn't a stigmatazion on homosexuality in Japan like there is in America. That really can't be argued.
I don't know if you are for gay rights or not, but it doesn't matter who is for what. It's simply the Japanese are MORE liberal with the issue. But it's not like they're having parades on a daily basis.
Dont most people just say Homo/Lez? People arent no more polite when it comes to saying things. Its a slang form and more people use it. I write it because its less time consuming to write. Its not being offensive.
Being conservative and Christian has no correlation. You can be any other religon and be conservative. People are Buddist, Jews, or many others and you can be conservative. Personally, I view homo/uality is more open here than in Japan. People here are more forward than in Japan. And Japan is LESS conservative on the idea of gayness. It's not that open as it is here.

This is about future captures, not the sexual orientation of Pokémon or their trainers. Stick to the topic, please. |

Well, most people I come across just say "gays." And I agree that a person being more gay is open in the US. (well, depending in which part you live in.) The Japanese are more of a reserved society, and rather not argue on issues, but just come up with a peaceful solution that makes both sides happy. |
