Re: 23
And yes, males have sterotypes to. However, as a general rule, males get more attention, as they're usually bigger characters, and they also have more categories of character types to fall into. So they both have a more varied start of what type they are, and get more fleshed out so they aren't JUST the stereotype. Japan is a male dominated society, and it shows in their pop culture. It's not something limited to anime (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_female_stock_characters), it just something that happens in fiction, but I think, in general, from the way fandom reacts, the stock females Japanese people like (Moe, Yamato Nadeshiko) are NOT the same stock females American girl will relate to. There's a huge cultural gap there. Anime is a genre that has a higher ratio of what would be considered weak characters by most western stereotypes. Just like romance novels have a higher standard of mary sues and flat males.
Now part of the problem here is you are trying to combine two of my points that are not in actuality combined.
Point a) A female character who acts like a male characters is not alike.
b) Flat characters are not good.
I did not say I'd like or dislike the pansy ass male, nor did I say I'd like or dislike the pansy ass female. I just said they'd be different characters with different motivations. I quiet like both Hinata and Obito from Naruto, and they're both "weak" people, but handled well. If the male was a BAD pansy ass character, I would dislike him just as much as I disliked the bad pansy ass female. Being a pansy ass=/=being a bad character. In fact I listed a bad male example, and said "If she's "too anything", yeah, it's bad. That's true for all characters."
So um...learn to read? Since you seem to have fail reading skills, let me sum up: Flat characters are bad.
And on a TOTALLY DIFFERENT POINT boys=/=girls.
And if I simply judged females harder then males, why is anime the only thing I'm into where the females fail to measure up? Oh, sure, here and there a female fails in all my other fictional interest but in general I'm more female oriented then male. So um...yeah. Logic does not compute. I call defensive assumption making BS.
