Is Oushi Paranoid, Safety Conscious Or Abl3ist Here?

[fonduegirl]

ok but like i have a terrible habit of entering online discussions of my favourite animes lol. i was totally shocked to witness fans calling the second male lead of yubisaki to renren / a sign of affection anime, oushi, a total misogynistic ableist guy for telling the main character to not go out at night, or overly trust her love interest, this older handsome guy. and im like, hold on?

1. She's a teenage girl. 2. She's mute. 3. It's Japan we're talking about! There's a myriad of tweets on weird behaviour of Japanese men... Of course as a friend he's gonna worry? He's gonna scold her? He likes her too, although he's not particularly nice about it. How is risky behaviour empowering for mute women?

Able! st

Paranoid

Safety Conscious

He's definitely weird

You like Oushi huh?

I'm going to be honest I think all women should take self-defense classes, carry a tazzer or something and avoid going out after dark alone. You don't have to like it but the fact is the world is different for woman. They are far more likely to be raped or robbed because they're easy targets. I'm not saying woman should be paranoid I'm saying they should be prepared and the fact she was going home alone at night is not a responsible decision especially as a teenager. He was right to scold her for it that's dangerous in the right context. A lot can go wrong in just a few blocks and a dark corner. Also I don't know the full context but it sounds like the older guy she likes is manipulative and creepy based on how you talk about it so yea in his shoes I'd do the same thing. It's not ableist or misogynistic to be concerned about the safety of someone you have feelings for. It's normal.

The older guy is kind of weird but fans like him because he's handsome Lmao

I agree with you 100%

I'm a feminist and I won't go out at night just to prove I can. I wish I could but I won't

It's not even that you shouldn't go out at night it's that you shouldn't go out at night alone and unprepared. If you and two of your friend's are out on the town the odds of something bad happening are low even if you're all woman because it only takes one person getting away to call the cops for help so most of those kind of sick mother fuckers won't make a move in that context. Still the fact is the world is full of sick people, and everyone should be careful but on a factual level woman are physically weaker than men and therefor more vulnerable and rape is probably the worst thing that can happen to a human being in my opinion it's as evil as evil gets basically. If I ever started dating one of the first things I'd buy my girlfriend if we got serious is a tazzer and pepper spray. I believe the best way to protect someone is to teach them to protect themselves. No man is ever going to be there 100% of the time and most woman wouldn't want them to be because sometimes they want girls night or private time but I am a worrier like my mother and I fuss over people I care about so If I was dating to me their safety is paramount.

Well I by mistake put the other option but he’s just concerned about her safety I don’t think that’s bad advice.
Not being overtly trusting in many or most situations isn’t a bad advice.

You can never be too conscious as a woman!

I am sorry I am not familiar with this.
