My Opinion of the Little Ladies Day Event

[Sesera]

Most people irrespective of their gender irl play female characters

Sorry but how playing a female over a male or a male over a female makes you irrespective of your gender?

adjective: irrespective

not taking (something) into account; regardless of.

As in, it doesn't matter what people actually are, most of them play female characters. This has nothing to do with "respecting" people.

Can you explain to me why 'Boy's Day' specifically is problematic?

Personally? NO reason. Society wise we seem to have a problem with it. Ask the people who decided my elementary/middle/high school wouldn't have boys days anymore why. I have theories but I'm not the one making decisions. If I had sons I'd be flying the carp flags and gifting them little samurai dolls and giving them treats... just like if I had daughters they'd get little kimono dolls and goodies on Girls day. It's cute and makes for a fun day for little ones.

Thanks for the clarification.

no need to feel dumb, I apologize if that felt harsh. I just wanted you to know it wasn't about discriminating or withholding respect.

No, I felt dumb for thinking she was saying something "mean" when I had just a bad understanding of the word. I'm really grateful for your comment and your explanation.
