Haha, well I see you have an incorrigible disposition. You are free to believe whatever you want. I merely suggest studying some basic sociology.

x_XJules

To end this, mankind has lived for millions of years, and masculinity has always been the norm among males. We've had pockets of metrosexuality here and there, but fortunately masculinity has stayed the path and will forever dictate sexuality and the models and roles that nature intended. --- groin...

@Ender's Girl: Haha, no I agree. Sometimes I get all fired up when gender roles come into conversation. I'm a sociology major and I hardly get moments to indulge in such topics outside school. LoL, but it's been super enjoyable

Thanks for conversing~!

x_XJules

^ Yeah, I see your point. :-) Misogyny is an age-old social ill, indeed. But isn't it interesting to note that society is learning to be more accepting of gay men in general than of gay women? There are more gay man who have come out of the closet than there are gay women. And more gay men have gon...

Well, I think that for MOST of history, it was the other way around. Up to the 19th century, women were censured for wearing their hair short, or for wearing pants, etc. Women only started to adopt mannish hairstyles and clothing in the 1920s or thereabouts. Society and history in general have not ...

x_XJules

I believe men and women are equal human beings and that men should not be sanctioned for doing something feminine. Being feminine is not something bad. It seems silly that women are less sanctioned for acting masculine. Why do we value masculinity over femininity? Anyways, long hair or not. It is ou...

Ooooo I super like the new window that pops up and says Happy Birthday. LoL, that was an awesome surprise.

@Joossy:
1.) My Boss My Hero
2.) Nobuta wo Produce
3.) Akihabara@DEEP
4.) Kekkon Dekinai Otoko
5.) Kisarazu Cat's Eye
and I know it's supposed to be 5 but also: IWGP (Ikebukuro West Gate Park)

LoL, also those are in no particular order.

x_XJules

How are you guys liking the shows this season? What are you watching? Anything you might suggest?

I've been watching mr. brain and konkatsu. Konkatsu is super cheesy but it's actually starting to grow on me, LoL. And Mr. Brain I don't have a real opinion on yet.

x_XJules

oooohh maaaaan~ When I first started watching doramas, I went crazy. I could watch an entire series in one sitting without a problem. Not even a slight discomfort. Now-a-days though I really only watch an episode or two a day (and that's only if I have something to watch LoL).

x_XJules

Aiyaa~! I totally know how you feel. I think my burned out phase is more due to lack of good shows lately. I was a fangirl for awhile but I've grown out of that (not to be offensive to fangirls. LoL, I still love a good looking man :D ) But unfortunately shows directed toward fangirls don't interest...

x_XJules

OMG.. What is with all the "specials" lately? Ugh.... I just want regular ai nori >.O

I just watched #424. Such a cute episode!! Omg.. sooooooo cute!

Yamaji is starting to grow on me a little. At least I can laugh at her now. Such a weirdo... I wonder how much longer momo will be on the show...

x_XJules

This is a tough question. I think Hollywood could remake any of the ones I have seen. I don't think it matters about Japanese or American cultures. Afterall isn't it just about entertainment? How about Long Love Letter. That might be interesting...... That's a good idea!! If they did though, I'd ki...

x_XJules

hahahahaha Saban Moon totally just made my day. Thank you!!

Hmm... I'd really like to see Kekkon Dekinai Otoko. The main character is just so awkward and socially unaware it's hilarious.

Yamaji is C-R-A-Z-Y. Shrek is a really sweet guy. He deserves someone better than Yamaji.

#409 - You guys are quick, LoL OMIGAWD Miya kun! When Miya first joined Ai Nori, I seriously thought he wouldn't confess to someone and he'd be the person that just retires. Man, he's really opened up. He's almost a different person. Still adorable Miya kun though. LoL, i loved when he climbed the t...

Okay.. So I just watched the first episode. I really didn't have very high expectations going into to it... and.. well.. i wasn't impressed in the slightest. The story seems interesting but the way it's carried out and the acting is pretty awful. LoL. I mean it's possible it could pick up. But I thi...

Oh, jholic! Please cosplay! That'd be amazing

x_XJules

eek~! yea, cliques are no good ^^;; 387- omg, who can believe it? Ryou and Carb are friends!! LoL, how did that happen? You know, if this were a dorama and not a reality-type show, I would have totally been able to predict that they would end up being friends... but whoa.. who knew that stuff happen...

386~! awww carbonara... I think he's doing the right thing. I agree that Remi is within his league.. but he'd be sooo much better with momo <3 and we finally witnessed danny and kuro talking about dancing!! well, kind of.. they were talking about the circles. LoL, i wish we had circles at my college...

Just finished 385~ seems like not a lot happened in this episode. which is fine. the side stories were cute. I'm happy for outlaw and goki (was that her name?). i wonder how long ago they were on the show.. how long has this show been running? The berlin wall part was interesting. i always love when...

KoalaKachou i might not have agreed with you until you used the example IWGP.

I should have known the cross-dressing thing was going to take over this discussion. :lol ne~~ was it just me or did ep 8 really suck.. a lot.. i think one of the factors that really drags the show down a lot is the acting by the adults. i know they are trying to be funny by over-acting a bit.. but ...
