    Talking To be honest...

    I think it's cool to have a stronger girlfriend, or girl friend that make more money then myself.
    I think it will even be better to have such a wife.

    I will dominate Wulin.
    First the toppling of Shaolin, afterwards taking over Wudang. Destroying the heretic sects and proclaim myself the hegemone of Wulin. Submitting the orthodox schools to my will.
    That actually sounds like Zhaomin before she fell in love with ZWJ.

    I don't see a guy who can't stand having a stronger girl as being selfish. In some ways I think they're better than those who will gladly just sit back and enjoy the fruits of the girl's hardwork. I like guys with ambition.

    And I agree with Arisa. If the guy brings the money home, I'll be happily obedient. Why should I complain? But of course he must be reasonable and respectful.

    Let us assume that you are a invincible martial artist.
    What kind of man will you look for?
    (With the assumation that you're truely invincible, and it's impossible for any man to be your match in contests of skills and strength)
    So?
    What will a girl look for a man when she's an invincible martial artist?
    Of course they guy has to love me and treat me nice and can communicate well with me. But the most important expect of the guy will be that he is confident enough with himself to not feel inferior when he is with an invincible girlfriend and go into depression or develope self-esteem problem. That will not be good for the relationship. But it will not be easy to find such a guy given the current believe system on gender roles (what a guy or a girl should be like). Intelligent and knowledgeable people also impresses me. So, an intelligent and knowledgeable guy (like a doctor or a scholar) will be good.

    Sorry I had to ask: Son of Light - Why do you care so much about heroines being main character?
    Beauty is not in the face;
    beauty is a light in the heart.

    -It's beauty that captures your attention; personality which captures your heart.

    Default To tell you the true...

    That I'm not sure...
    I just feel that it's should be like that...
    Or maybe I'm sick of reading about WuXia stories will male leads.
    Or maybe, because stories about girls are more interesting?
    Maybe I like storeis that are more on relationships and emotions, less on plp seeking revenges and killing each other...
    Or maybe, I want to see some other form of friendship other then drinking wine together...
    Maybe I just feels that girls should be stronger then guys...
    Who knows?
    There could be so many reasons...

    Btw, what kind of guy would you want if you were a invincible martial artist?

    Yeah, that's the point.

    Read the manga. Please read the manga. The Sailor Moon anime destroyed all that was decent about that storyline.

    There's a surprise, anime butchering the manga. (City Hunter/Cat's Eye comes to mind)

    I believe that "decent" and "Sailor Moon" should not be in the same sentence, unless there's a "not" somewhere I thought nobody watched or read that crap ?


    Son of Light, when will you become a girl ? It seems that you're offended by everything related to males, even in some fantasy books.
