It is easier to hate yourself than it is to hate all men. But it is just as easy to say you hate all men, than it is to say you hate yourself.
We are not a generation of hating men and women, but a generation that pretends to so we don't accept that we hate ourselves.
In fact, when you think about it, for all her screen time, Korra is deceptively a background character of her own show, which is more focused on building the lore post Aang, than it is about her.
Lots of busywork but very rarely does she actually seem needed in the plot.
Korra's biggest issue was that she was shafted by her writers into great problems she couldn't reasonably resolve as a character. Because of this, the story has to bend over backwards to offer solutions she hadn't had access to prior.
This wouldn't change if she was a man.
This is why it's easy to feel sorry for her and feel she was flawed. She directly faced 4 villains and four philosophies she had no answers to so the writers could tackle them.
And because the story knew she had no arsenal against it, solutions outside of her were provided.
@TheLaurenChen They never realize how American they are until they get to an African country. Not learning from mistakes second hand grants you first class humility.
@DeanAbbott Adding to the conversation rather than disagreement. My argument would be that in our knowledge of our broken selves, we are more prepared to deal with those we don't fully understand, but know they are human just as we are.
@SWENGDAD Looks are absolutely a number one priority for anyone, not just women. This is someone you'll be attracted to physically as well. Personality can form bonds, strong ones, but will never be a substitute for phy. attraction.
What counts as phy. pleasing is what varies in people.
@sadgirlyboss Submission is not a reward for leadership, nor should it be compelled. Just like leadership, submission is a personal, consistent sacrifice.
It's true that it shouldn't be asked for, much the same way leadership shouldn't be asked for. Both should be given organically.
Hero of the Kingdom: Tales 1 was an amazing mobile game. Short campaign, fair challenge, and a simple but functional story. There's hope for the mobile platform after all.
Blue Lock Season 2 had insane hype until the end. Mob Psycho got an anime that made reading the manga irrelevant. We have isekai about vending machines. Shikanokonokonoko Koshitantan's trailer alone had attention.
The Big 3 will be fine.
@TheeDreadGod Honestly, they'd be even more iconic with the current animation budgets. If the Chuunin Exams, Soul Society, and Marine ford were animated today, they'd be their own 3 part films.
A union of diverse opinions is an invitation to conflict, and conflict isn't always solved by "same think."
Conflict then is resolved by picking priorities and then understanding you will take months, if not years to resolve everything else.
"Maybe if we're super kind and wholesome, xy group will join us!" Maybe they don't want that. And that's okay. Not everyone goes through the same journey of development.
Consider that the reason they don't want to leave is also because they want you to join them.
I feel like division these days is caused less by political extremes, and more by people who don't understand why they are different from each other.
So we believe merely offering value fixes the problem of division. It might not. Sometimes, letting people go can solve things.
@McKennaMK @EdwinLallo The statement also implies that 50% of men are going to be picked. How do we know if that many men deserve to hold those seats? What if the number of competent women is 65%?
Do we bump those numbers back to 50 to afford more men?
@NjeriWaMigwi You'd assume that having women in the cabinet immediately solves those problems from the statement. But it doesn't. The issue is that incompetence knows no gender.
For every man or woman that is currently wasting our country, there's a man or woman better for the job.
@Nyamisa_Chela What if, in your example, there were 32 competent women for the roles of CS? Would you be on the frontline to say 7 of them should go home so 25 men could sit on those chairs for the sake of gender equality?
