OK, I guess this post's a long time coming..... 9_9
But where do I even start?
I want to basically talk about the current atmosphere of our fandom that I feel might be a bit stifling to some of us in terms of critiquing GACKT or anything related to GACKT. I feel like there's a trend in the fandom where people can't criticize anything he says or does

Haha, I think that most of the people who are offended by the recent tweets, including me, are the ones who have never been all that happy about G's "Women should do this, and men should do this" type of tweets or his pervy tweets in the first place. If I just speak for myself, I usually roll my eyes on his dumb, sexual tweets all the time, but I usually overlook them, thinking it's just G. But THESE tweets just...pushed me over the edge, so to speak. And that's probably what happened to most of the others, too. So, it's not like we are all of a sudden going, "OMG, what happened to him???" XD
Yeah, I'm sure he meant them as some kind of joke, but the jokes were very dumb, rude, and crude the way they were expressed. And that's why I said the 'tweets' were disgusting, not G himself.
And yes, he really, really needs to enroll in KiA's Funny Joke 101. Srsly.
I'm sure the fans will keep tweeting him silly sexual things, because everybody knows he is the perv king and he keeps responding to them. It'll never stop unless he stops. But since he obviously enjoys it, it most likely won't stop, until he decides to leave Twitter, like he's threatened to do many times already. X'D
BTW, I tried to go back on your Twitter TL to see what discussions you had with whom, but I wasn't too successful, so I'm still not sure what was said by who, exactly.
I just hope that you don't need to feel like you need to defend him constantly because that'll get you really worn down in the end. If it doesn't, it will take away some of your enjoyment of being a GACKT fan. What's important is what YOU (no, not that You =w=) think about him, right? Who cares what others think? If someone is hypocritical, etc., it really is their own problem to suffer, not yours. I'm not saying you shouldn't point it out if you think something's not just. I guess somebody ought to. But hopefully without making it too personal, you know? Their problem is really theirs. You can just go on being the fabulous KiA who is crazy about GACKT, who can share her love, not judgement, with others in the funny and sweet (and crazy and pervy :D) way only she can.
Because, you know, I think you are fabulous.
I hope I've made sense? >w<;;;;
"Thank you, Val. I always feel comfortable talking to you, no matter what the subject is ♥"
Hey, that's how I feel about you! ;w; *huggles*

The discussion I had on twitter was actually very calm. I was just speaking with others & putting out our thoughts, & I quickly went back to making jokes really damn fast xD After a while, it felt more relieving because I guess we were poking some fun at Gackt for being an idiot xD I just had to write my thoughts out on it because it was still a little frustrating. You know when something just keeps coming up over & over again? It's why I wrote out my own post. If I didn't, I don't think I would have felt better & been able to discuss it so calmly with others. I'm happy I have really respectful friends that can agree & disagree pretty calmly.
Nah, I don't constantly feel like I need to defend him. I only ever really do when he's getting bashed for idiotic reasons (like no liking him because his face looks to plastic, stupid shit like that). When people bash him for the wrong reasons, I do get kind offended because he is my inspiration & does have a kind heart when, you know, he doesn't do or say assholish things xD I'm not blind to that, but I would never bash on someone because his face looks to fake or his voice isn't to my liking or something. With this, I didn't need to defend him (because I didn't on my first part of my own post xD), I just wanted to put out my own opinion too. That's all :) I just hope that I don't offend my friends with disagreeing. After all, I have lost quite a few friends because they didn't like I thought differently. But I have plenty of friends too, like you, who are very respectful to differences.
& you made perfect sense! :) You know I adore you haha ♥ /my sappy moment
