105 I don't think that makes you sexist... some people just prefer het, what's the problem with that?

110 He was certainly the best character. And the most honest, but I guess that was the point.

127 Yeah, I thought he was too handsome to be Rorschach, personally. (It doesn't help that I have a thing for red hair)

136 My roommate has this awesome poster of the White Queen framed in his room. :D

139 AAAUGH why do people feel compelled to ask others if their personal tastes make them bad feminists? What the hell! Seriously, I'm tired of these kinds of secrets.

156 Wait aminute -- "cultural appropriation"? The Japanese appropriated that style in the first place!

[identity profile] nekusagi.livejournal.com 2009-03-08 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
This.

Yep, stuff inspired by European Rococo and Victorian fashion. Real Japanese.

(thinks cultural appropriation's not really that big a deal anyway, but found that secret odd.)

156 OP

I can understand why you found it odd- I'm probably just worrying too much. But for some reason, I don't think that "but it came from the Europeans first!" would seem like a reasonable explanation to a lot of the people who think cultural appropriation IS a big deal.

It's not that I think it's so bad to borrow from other cultures as long as you're respectful and you don't think that makes you an expert about them or one of them, but... a lot of people do. And I've been hearing that point of view a lot more lately, and (while it's not my own point of view) I do have a certain amount of respect, if frustration, for it. That, and I'm scared to be the bad guy.

I just don't see why it matters if you borrow a fashion that was borrowed from another culture in the first place, that's all.

Fucking agreed. I thought he was pretty ok from the start, but as soon as the mask was off, I was like "HE'S A GINGER. NEW FAVORITE CHARACTER." I am shallow. :D
