I have no idea, but I think it should be at least brushed over. If we so heatedly debate religon in socials class then I think we should also at least discuss Feminism - I mean, it was the great movement of our time, and at least it's still relevant.

I think we're at least fortunate enough to be in a country where there is some degree of female liberation. But at the same time, you see places like Japan where there isn't a form of feminism, and yet there is still a feeling of harmony between the sexes.

I've recently re-learned how to feel emotion so now that I can feel outraged, I am. If that even sounds right. It's a strange phenomina - my mom is kind of against it, though. I pointed out how there are TV shows directed to women that are cooking and cleaning, and that TV shows dedicated to men tend to be mechanics or vehicals, and she told me I shouldn't worry about it. I'm not worried, I'm just... disturbed.

I'LL TRY~~ Usually at lunch I'll be in the film room, though, because I'd like to do some independant projects and Mr. Coupe seems pretty alright with it. But yes, I'm excited!
