regardless of the fact that she didn't vocalise their uselessness, the mere fact that she had to be called in would've been a punch in the balls to the members of the force that were already there
they will hate the fact that a teenager has been called in to do their job for them, so whether she was a male or a female, they're gonna resent the fact that a teenager is seen to do a better job than them
it's basic human psychology
besides, i just said in my previous comment that i understand the motivation behind creating her, and that i think it's a legitimate one
like i said, i feel like the idea was not expressed as well as it could've been, and should've been done with an adult social link instead of a children's one, because it would lend more weight to the issue her character represents

(Anonymous) 2012-12-28 02:31 am (UTC)(link)So essentially you're saying they're resenting her for a decision that was made by others so it's okay.
Also, no. It wouldn't have been more powerful as an adult social link or better. Because Naoto would have settled into the sexism and accepted it, not been made nearly as uncomfortable by it. Basic human psychology, since you try to be so good at that. It would lend zero weight as an adult besides to undermine that Japanese youth especially struggle with these old, outdated views thrust upon them.
Also, fuck you. She would have faced twice as much resentment had it been outed she was a girl earlier. She was perfectly aware they already resented her for her youth, and that's why she wanted to be taken seriously and why she masqueraded as a boy, you fucking dumbass. She says it right in the fucking game. Her being a girl would only be yet another reason for them to dismiss her, and she was already getting enough of that.
and yes, you're taking a very American view of this situation. You are everything that pisses me off about this fandom at times. Sorry she wasn't an adult woman crying adult tears to undermine the message about Japanese youth especially experiencing shit self esteem because of outdated views in a culture.
no subject
she's a fictional character yo, there's no need for this level of pressage
probs gonna be the last reply bc i'm convinced you're acting like a dumbfuck inbred on purpose
+ i don't want to repeat my points bc doubtless they'll go waltzing past your head in cavalier nonchalance while you make no attempt to grasp them and instead spew invectives at me as if they're some kind of substitute for logic
