Hate to say it, but because of this, I think I've officially lost all respect for Gackt. And I say this as someone who used to consider him my favorite musician (before hide, X Japan, and Sugizo walked into my life XD ( Read more... )

He's inherently japanese. Japan isn't all shiney, they're pretty xenophobic. idg why you're upset now.

AS for guys only gigs, japanese artists do it all the time. TMR did it ages ago. There are women only events, sooo...what's the difference?

"Gackt says the move is his attempt to reverse the recent trend among Japanese guys to shun traditional male stereotypes"

It's not that he is doing a male-only live, it's that he's baaaaawwwwing about men not being "OMG REAL MEN."

How is that any different from any of his gackblogs where he talks about how he wants to be a ~manly man~ as well?

This is weird, I don't even like Gackt and I'm defending him, wtf.. But I'm not surprised about this and I don't think it's something to rage about. Get annoyed at, maybe, but no need to hoist the banners high.

I used to kinda be into Gackt, but for a while now I had stopped X_X. This kind of thing..for me..I think it's stupid. Not all people like stereotypical gender types. I mean, the guy I like looks pretty girly but he's still pretty strong and such.

There were a few other things (including a remark he made in some interview along the lines of "OH NOES LETTING FOREIGNERS HAVE JOBS HERE IN JAPAN IS BAD BECAUSE THEN WE'LL BE LESS JAPANESE!!1!1!"),

I'm interested in reading that, if you remember where you read it. Not trying to be all OH YEAH? PROVE IT!! on you, Im genuinely interested.
