Well, that's good. At least you're out of it.

It probably won't be a huge deal, to be honest. I kind of like the idea of them being somewhat-friends--though that's mostly because Xellos would throw a fit if Filia ever invited her over for dinner.

Filia *would* be horrified. Xellos can deny all he wants, but I've got the pictures to prove it: HE HAS NO RESPECT.

I don't think I'm of that minor a percentage. I mean, everything seems irrational and unreasonable when you're not looking at it from the person's perspective. Women are all very different. ...But PMS does indeed suck. And I do understand that most women are supposed to have higher threshholds of pain than men do--makes sense when you consider childbirth and all.

Deary me. Plenty of men love shopping more than women. My dad, for instance, owns more clothes than the rest of the family combined. My mother's never been a shopping fan either. I don't mind it, but it's not something I spend my spare time doing. I've got a purpose whenever I shop and I try to get it done as quickly as possible. I know there are plenty of girls who feel the same. Don't believe the stereotype!

HMM. Call me a hopeless, optimistic fool, but I think what Carlin's talking about with 'the male disease' is actually loosening its grip. Don't get me wrong, it's still there in a lot of people and all, but I think the increase in acceptance toward the LGBT community is having a postive impact on gay and straight alike. So much of what's he's talking about is from the fear of being labeled 'gay' or of being accused of not performing gender correctly.

I really hate arbitrary gendering of traits. The idea that sensitivity is feminine or that courage is masculine and that kind of thing. It's bullshit. Maybe if we all stop relying on self-perpetuating stereotypes then people won't feel the need to act so much in the lines of what they feel their gender requires of them and just in general BE THEMSELVES. I'm not denying biology plays a trait, but most of gender is SO socially created in my book.
