However, no one could say anything. We have to remember that though he pretended to want Hotohori out of jealousy, Hotohori wasn't the wiser either. In a way, Nuriko was always in the androgynous closet to society, but completely open for himself. I doubt he was ashamed to share it, but held it as a personal issue that he clearly wanted under-wraps. Thanks for your compliment about my points. To be honest, I don't believe it's arbitrary, but a biological standard that a community tends to be programmed to. I believe the arbitrary aspect can only exist in those who must combat that biological standard within whatever community they are placed within, thus the issue. But yes, another time ^^; P.S. Thank you for deeming this blog worthy enough to link, even though we've just started! Much appreciated.

I also liked his motivation for being who he is, and why he's comfortable with it, though some can complain about how he did what he did out of trauma rather than because he felt like that was him. Interesting points about what's traditional too. I'm wondering how what becomes tradtional for the individual becomes that for a community or even the whole of society. It's very arbitrary if you think about it. But that's something for another time. :P I did forget about Nuriko from FY.
