Mysonginy and Misandry and social implications.

People used to say that there was a time when "men were men". This meant that men were tough, macho and weren't feminine. But i don't think that's true. I think men in all of time have always been under similar pressure as women. But this sort of social pressure is not as bad as it is for women. I think for women, they have it much more rougher as they have to be much more prepared and "made up" than men. For us men, it's not really make up, but how we look, what clothes we wear and how we smell. there is also the vital and important pressure of our place in society. As a young man growing up, there is one thing I learnt that every man has to achieve; that is his place in society. I, as a man, have to find where I belong and where I should be. But for women, I think the pressure lies on who they're going to be with in a few years. Personally, I think a man should help out a woman, protect her and share with her his place in society so that she doesn't have to experience all the trouble herself. But this doesn't mean that women can;t be independant. I think they should be, and they should also understand how men see the world.
I think that men and women, atleast in this generation are very similar, and that the divisions that were up a few years ago (being fashionable, being trendy, expressing emotion) have almost disappeared. Now today, if a man wanted to do an occupation that was formally seen as only for women, he too can now do it. It's also the same with women. They too can do work that was "only" for men. This breaking down of divisions I think has brought the sexes closer to each other.
Now what am I calling for exactly? an end to misandry/misoginy. I think these two views are primitive and, excuse my language, fuckin' retarded. Hating one another is not the sign of cultural advancement but social backwardness. The problem is not the amount of hate generated, but where the hate is directed. Just because one has bad experiences with women/men, it doesn't mean all women/men are bad. Personally. i've met some stupid fucking bitches in my life, but I don't hate women. I don't think there's a need for the sexes to be divided in two camps. We're all living in this crazy place, why can't we survive long enough to not kill each other?

why laziness kinda sucks

I find myself hanging out more and more with my friends, and I've realised that I've been feeling myself grow as a person. I think for one to fully develop and mature, they have to have kind people pushing them (atleast for me anyways). when I was a kid, I actually didn;t have many friends, and the one I did make, I kind of pushed him away (Micheal, where ever you are, Mabuhay ka kababyan!) But now, as a young man, who's growing, changing, evolving, pushing himself, I find myself more and more driven. Driven by things like not failing and becoming a better man. This is why I hate lazy people, or people who don't try hard. I know the path to life is hard, but that should be an invitation, not a cause for defeat. A true man (or woMAN) should see this and go "failure is only a step back". Sure we all fuck up and fail, but life goes on, and I guess if the failure is small enough, we can continue and aim for what we want. I also bought this bitchin' belt and jacket. shit was so cash.

Fuck you Showa Riders, suck my dick.

Kamen rider decade has done the inevitable, it has literally turned the old school riders into nothing but drones for the new school riders. Now, I can excuse the new gen riders for sucking balls, but they cannot do this to the old school kamen riders. That's like a student of da vinci taking the david and re-sculpting it into a giant penis. It's just wrong and shouldn't be done. man, fuck you Toei, I hope your company goes fucking bankrupt.

This is where the news appeared.

Tetsuwan Girl (Atom Girl) or "How I learnt to love first base"

No, it's not about urain, although she is adorable. No, it's a manga about post WWII japan. Before I go on, when I was in my last year of high school, I tried to make a mad max cowboy thing with my classmates. But my teacher, being a dick, or being a wise man (I;m pretty sure he was being a wise man, or a wise dick) nshot us down. He then told us "if you wanna see something after an apocalypse, go look at pictures of Nagasaki and Hiroshima. That's an apocalypse. So, in the end, the project bombed due to technical difficulties and the fact that Ryan Mason is the laziest fucker in the world. All he card about was making planets in photoshop and halo, FUCKING HALO.Oh, and don;t get me started on his friends, god what a bunch of faggots. God, i fucking hated high school.

But I digress, this isn't about those shitty 4 years I spent in that sorry excuse for a school. This is actually about a manga called Atom girl. Now this manga is about a hostess club that becomes a baseball team. This might sound like some kind of feel good movie. You may think that but no, it's not. It's possibly the most manliest and pump-you up shit ever. you know why i like it so much? because it reminds me of the Kenka Kyokushin Karate trilogy. It's set in WWII japan, and it involves a manly sport (baseball in this case, and in manga, baseball is always manly). The other reason I like this manga is there's something that draws me to post WWII japan. I don;t know what it is, but I think there's this intermingling of cultures.

There's this interesting friction in that time and place, where the GI's would be feared by the people. Bussines men making money whatever way they can. Then there's also the injection of american culture into japan. Without the american soldiers ever coming into japan, I think japan would be a different place. I think this time was also a time when the world truly got to see japan as a growing power. They would take american ideas and adapt them to their own, they would nativize american concepts and things.

But enough about that, this manga is good, and if you like a story about people rising up and becoming something greater, then read this manga. The main character is also some hot bad ass chick that doesn;t take shit from people. It's fucking good, and it'll rock your socks. I know it rocked mine.

P.S. DJD will hate this manga cause it has women being awesome. I think he hates that.

Godannar: "the shittiest giant robot show ever"

Godannar “the shittiest robot show on earth”

Everyone knows godannar, if you don’t , then you are a lucky man (woman, robot alien, whatever). It’s the tale of how some thirty yr old dude or something married some 16 yr old chick, and how they end up piloting some kick ass robot together. Now, this is a giant robot show right? Allright, then what was wrong with the sentence? If you said

“thirty yr old dude or something married some 16 yr old chick” then you are correct. If you said “ end up piloting some kick ass robot together” then get the fuck out of this blog before I turbosmash your face in.
Now, the concept is actually pretty awesome, well kinda. Boob-tastic giant robots, awesome right? But it seems that only Go Nagai was the only one who successfully worked with this formula (HEIL NAGAI!) and when Godannar did it, it sucked balls.
Godannar sucks balls, like sweaty dirty fat man balls.

It is crappily animated, badly written and over all, forgets it’s a giant robot show. I mean for god’s sake, it’s called Go-fucking-dannar, which is the name of a giant robot. But now, it has to act like it’s some sort of soap opera about shit like love and all the crappy crap. It forgets that is needs giant robots punching each other and not gratuitous cleavage and ass shots to be an awesome robot show.

It forgets that that it shouldn’t be some crappy soap, nor should it tell us the stories of crappy pilots no one cares about and cheesy romance plots. See, the only thing godannar has going for it is the fact that it’s got awesome music, and our favourite character KEN! (with his sexy sword wielding skills!).

That’s seriously the only good thing about it. Thanks to the awesome-tacular trio of Ichiro Mizuki, Akira Kushida and Mitsuko Horie, the show is on the scale of crap. See, if they didn’t sing the theme song, then the show would be negative on the scale of crap. This show would be so bad, it would owe me money. See the only reason anyone would watch this is if you were a masochist (like me) or you’re some sort of perverted creep. So please, ignore this show and watch mazinkaiser instead (it is much superior in terms of boobage and action).


P.S Djd, I know what show I have to watch next. It's a little feature called Dancouga Nova
