LOL 草食系ちゃ~ん is golden!! That's a SURE way to piss off a guy and make everyone else laugh hahaha

I usually hear it when listening to complaints, very often from parents wondering what's up with their kids are that way, or why their girl is interested in that kind of guy ><

Anyway I should have known better not to get involved in discussion with ppl like yourself, who make a living out of looking for a hole in a whole. You are a type of a person who would actually ride a subway to count how many metro kids are fixing their hair, than post it in here and wank to your own post. Telling you once again, I ve been here long enough to be entitled to have a view and don't give a monkey toss if you disagree
lol. Opinion CAN be proven wrong.

What kind of stupid idiot sees a couple of Japanese guys who take care of their hair and then decides that Japanese men are effeminate?

How on Earth could anyone possibly speak for all Western men?

Speak for the hick town in Canada you come from. Don't speak for all of the West.

what the hell part of generally don't you understand?

most, by popular vote, majority, more than not, etc

even if I hadn't put generally in there anyone with the slightest bit of common sense would assume it meant the significant portion and not all,

and it's not like I just started being explicit, I've been so careful with words since the lot of you flame-raped the shit out of me for making a generalization a few months back lol

I also happen to come from every single big city in Canada, which thankfully is a country so multicultural that people can grow up with, be friends with, love and criticize people from all nations respectfully

Why would you want to encourage them to call people gay? Seriously. WTF?

It's そうしょくけい 
草食系 - General - Tangorin Japanese Dictionary
Actually, the definition of 草食系 sounds like what every mature woman dreams of...

Young men who are not competitive as in tradition male stereotypes, including in the avid pursuit of money and sex, and who may also be kind, co-operative and family-oriented

I'm saying you are no where NEAR qualified to say that.

Seriously.

I even say something along similar lines earlier in the thread where I talk of the stereotype that is out there about Asian men being effeminate.

Is that stereotype out there? Of course it is. Is it that the MAJORITY of Western men that think that? Don't have a clue and if my experience is anything to go by with my interactions with other "Western" men (and considering I'm a Westerner myself)... no.

It's not even a matter of whether you're right or I'm right... you just aren't QUALIFIED to make that generalisation.

That's what I'm saying. Yet you're trying to sell your perception of things as the way things are.

And I love how you're "sticking up for Canada".

Hate to break it to you.. but Canada is just "America-lite".

It's kinda like how New Zealand is Australia-lite.

As for the "flame rape" that you received for your racist thread that you created before. You deserved every bit of it.
