I know many of you are completely tired of this issue by now, so do please skip this post if you want to.
And I have already talked about it in the past, but I've been seeing so much real hurt among my friends in the past few days, and I just feel like I should throw in my two cents (or three or one hundred and fifty three...... orz) on the matter

If only I could like this sentence 1000 times.
IF ONLY.
Because I wholeheartedly agree with this line, and I only wish other people could understand this.
I'm not gonna throw in my two cents or anything, only because I'm really tired of this sexism debate. The fandom goes through it every single year (and ironically, I've noticed, around this time, too LOL).
but I wanted to read what you had to say so I came over and commented anyway whoops

My answer to that, in short, was "No." I actually wanted to say "HELL NO" but didn't. :p
He is a grown man who can think for himself. Why is that our job, or even our right, to tell him how to think and what to say....))))
I LOVE THAT WORDS.... I also respect him for having his own views.I love his own thoughts.I don't want him to lie...
(strong men that they can rely on and that let them feel like women, safe and protected.) i also like that thought of GACKT.I like that kind of GACKT, his originally..
I accept your words.. you can write so well.
I understand that GACKT's sexiest means not the same like as some fandoms thoughts...
That was mean more than that kind of thoughts.,, it may contain cultures between man and woman,.. loves, and existences of man for woman for Today japan..
I thought like that...

And what GACKT says was never wrong like you said. He's just super traditional (like he has said so many times before), and trying to help Japan stay like how it was.
Wow really I can't thank you enough for posting this. It even helped me set some things straight in my mind as well. Not to mention that this stated more fact than opinion! Hopefully no more arguments in the fandom now XD Kinda wondering if all of this started because people are still venting from all of the recent YFC news.
Thanks for sharing once again!! :)

Well, let me clearly say here, though, that I do think it IS wrong for him to be promoting stereotypes in his career like he has been with YFCz. It IS wrong and will be more harmful than helpful to the Japanese society, but he does mean 'well' and firmly believes in the cause.

That's what it seemed like to me, too. LOL
A lot of fans have had their emotions stirred up lately. :'3

It's so funny you say that because I think GACKT is such a strange mixture of a liberal and a conservative. I think he's mostly only conservative in terms of gender roles, but yeah, he's such a conundrum. lol
