Yet you misconstrue his sexist traits entirely.

It's not that she's a girl inherently; it's that she seems to be using femininity (ie. small, young and cute) to fill in the gaps where she is lacking in leadership qualities. I of course mean totally [i]genderless[/i] leadership qualities like charisma, articulation both in writing and in speech, economy of resources, keeping a cool head in stressful situations, and so on, some of which she indisputably lacks. These traits profit leaders of any sex, build, or philosophy. If she possessed all of these in abundance—though even according to your own lore and IC posts, some of her lacks are totally incontrovertible—then she could be a haggard old pus-bleeding Orc for all Gutta cares, and he would respect her rather than "just obeying" her with a grudge attached.

As for "gratuitous" use of a Japanese phrase, I've scanned a few posts in the IC tab and through even rudimentary knowledge of linguistics, I located loan-words from Old Norse ("garth"), French ("acquiesce"), Ancient Greek ("chaos"), [i]several[/i] dialects of ancient Latin, and a smattering of Italian. None of these have received the same semantic bombardment as "yare, yare."

Why is Japanese where the line is drawn between overlooked and "gratuitous"?
