			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><!--StartFragment--><span>I’m convinced that there’s a giant reason for why 50% to 70% of men cheat on their wives and why nearly 60% of first-time marriages end in divorce. This reason, however, seems to be overlooked by so-called specialists and studies. (Although, in their defense, the results were probably manipulated by liberal feminists angry with men for not seeing the beauty in their un-made up faces and Birkenstocks.)</span><!--EndFragment--> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><!--StartFragment--><span>My conclusion is drawn from simple observation of married couples around the country. I believe that it’s almost solely the women’s fault for most normal marriages ending in ruins. (I’d like to take a moment to stress my use of the word normal. I’m not going to blame the woman who’s subject to abuse, or the family torn apart by alcoholism.) Why this harsh point of fingers? I feel that women in this country once they become married, no longer feel the need to take care of themselves.</span><!--EndFragment--> </p>
<p> </p>
<p><!--StartFragment--><span>I’d like to know where the days of women making themselves look presentable to their husbands when they come home from working all day went.<span>  </span>Of course, if both the husband and the wife work all day, there’s a perfectly good reason to not look immaculate, but housewives have no excuse. Their husbands have worked a long, stressful day and instead of coming home to a spotless house and their beautiful wife, they end up getting a war-torn home and a haggard spouse. </span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span> <!--StartFragment--><span>There’s no reason for it. Childcare has become so much easier in modern times, and taking an hour out of their day to exercise, shower, and apply some make-up is not difficult at all. When the kids are napping, instead of taking a nap yourself, grab the baby monitor and hit the exercise machine at home. Sure, napping reduces headaches and makes you feel relaxed and rejuvenated but exercise does the same thing. It helps move your circulatory system by opening veins and arteries allowing more blood to flow through. This can reduce stress levels and blockades that may be the source of a headache. Exercise, as we all know via Legally Blonde, releases endorphins, which gives the feeling of elation and excitement. </span></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span><span> <!--StartFragment--><span>Humans are a very visually oriented race, so it only seems natural for a woman (and even men) to wear the right clothes and apply make-up to enhance their natural features and give the appearance of flawlessness. Women who don’t want to, or don’t feel they have to make themselves beautiful all the time are seriously mistaken. If you’ve somehow convinced yourself that your husband will still love you if you were to dress in old, ratty tees and baggy jeans all the time, then a mental check-up might be in order. Aesthetics enhance a relationship. Dressing well every single day, keeps the spark and flare in your marriage going. He’ll be delighted to guess what outfit you’ve chosen for the day</span><!--EndFragment--> </span></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span><span> <!--StartFragment--><span>I don’t have to impress anybody, but I still look good every single day. It gives me more confidence and should I ever get married someday, I can guarantee you that I’ll try my very hardest to look beautiful just for them. Maybe my views are misogynistic, but to be honest, I don’t really give a damn. This epidemic of married women letting themselves go needs to be stopped somehow if we ever want America to return to the moralistic country it was of the past. </span></span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Out of my insane love for the GazettE&#8217;s new single DISTRESS AND COMA, I decided to check YouTube to see if I could pilfer any videos that might be of a higher quality than mine, when I stumbled upon a comment discussion that highly disturbed me. It started with this comment:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>&#8220;XxgothicvoodoodollxX (1 day ago)</p>
<p>the song is stuck in my head now&#8230;.wow it&#8217;s really good&#8230;</p>
<p>i&#8217;m just a bit bothered though&#8230;ruki got a plain gold ring on his ring finger the past months&#8230;i heard rumors he is married&#8230;and now he is singing about brides&#8230;.could it be??&#8221;</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This was immediately followed by a flurry of comments along the lines of &#8220;he can&#8217;t get married because I&#8217;m getting married to him lolololol.&#8221;  And of course the ever popular, &#8220;I won&#8217;t like Ruki anymore if he gets married.&#8221; </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Just off the bat, I&#8217;d like to point out how incredibly frightening that concept is. Because of an artists marital status, you&#8217;re going to refuse to listen to them? I thought it was about the music. Not about an artists appearance or personal-life. Aoi could be a gay, transsexual, baby-eating alien, and I still wouldn&#8217;t care. (Assuming that he&#8217;s not eating my  babies, of course. If he is, well, then it&#8217;s personal).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Besides, Atsushi Sakurai of BUCK-TICK is married for the second time. Neither marriage prohibited him from his work, and to this day his band continues to produce quality music that appeals to a wide audience. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I&#8217;m thrilled by XxgothicvodoodollxX&#8217;s extensive research as she cites the appearance of a gold band on his finger &#8220;in the past months.&#8221;  In Japan, wearing a wedding ring has become an acceptable custom since the 1960&#8242;s but it is still not a completely wide-spread practice. Many women choose to not wear wedding rings, and men just flat out don&#8217;t wear them. On top of that, some stars wear rings and pretend they&#8217;re married to avoid un-wanted attention. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>What still baffles me is the outright objection to their favorite J-Rock star getting married. It&#8217;s like they still haven&#8217;t grasped the concept of straight men, or relationships. The idea that Ruki&#8217;s going to be gay with Reita until he meets the love of his life, which is of course you, a 15-pound overweight teenager wearing ill-fitting clothing and reveling in your lack of make-up. He&#8217;s not gay. In fact, I picture him as one of the least questionable men on that wretched machine, PSC. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Besides, I don&#8217;t want to imagine them having buttsex. I&#8217;ve seen buttsex before, and it is NOT a pretty sight. All the &#8220;members&#8221; and &#8220;tight caverns&#8221; read about in perverse FanFictions have somehow created this romantic image of the deed. In reality, it is pretty disgusting and not all &#8220;aww-worthy&#8221;. &#8216;</p>
<p> </p>
<p>In short, XxgothicvodoodollxX and other like-idiots represent exactly why I avoid any discussion, post, thread, or mention of the GazettE. I&#8217;ve grown, changed, evolved into a better fan, it&#8217;s about time they grew up too.</p>
