Thank you for sharing your opinion!
Our representative, Kida, will reluctantly answer.
Your question is:
“Why don’t you ban them?”
Is that correct?
No, we won’t.
If someone who was about to be permanently banned after causing trouble on a date contacted me and said,
“I’m ○○, a columnist. Can’t you do something?”
I would reply:
“I’m sorry, but no.”
From my perspective, the situation is this:
Someone anonymously sends a comment to the question box saying something like, “I’m absolutely shocked! Get rid of him!”—which isn’t really a question—and demands an answer,
while the respondent has given an honest answer to an anonymous question.
You’re a woman, correct?
I don’t believe that being a woman, or being in a weaker position, means you can say whatever you want.
If you’re an adult who understands the purpose of the question box, I think there are better ways to address the person answering.
And just to be clear, Mr. Mac, I’m not trying to defend someone as insignificant as myself. I’m simply trying to express my own thoughts honestly.
That said, it would be sad if you stopped answering questions in the future.
Both I and other respondents have been criticized in all sorts of ways in the past.
If someone told me, “Maezawa, please stop answering,” I probably couldn’t recover—but he continues answering energetically regardless.
Please don’t worry about something this minor. I’d be happy if you kept answering in the future, even while picking your nose.
Interactions with women are always serious business.
Compared with that, this kind of exchange in writing is really nothing.
It’s Mac again.
I’d like to add to momo’s comment that you should also remember condoms don’t make the chance of pregnancy zero. Try searching for “condoms and pregnancy risk.” If you ever see a gynecologist, you could ask them about it as well.
The main purpose of condoms is preventing STIs, not contraception. Of course, there’s still a risk if you have unprotected oral sex, though…
I have a friend who’s a gynecologist, so I know quite a bit about this.
Since the pill is the most reliable option, I think the person who asked the question at https://universe-club.jp/help/questions/view/2436 is actually being the most gentlemanly. Please read the question again.
This is Mack. This isn’t an answer, but I’d like to use this space for a quick announcement.
I don’t want things to get heated and cause anyone trouble, so I’ll refrain from answering for a while. Now that my column has come to an end, I’ll return over there.
Apparently, I’m rather unusual for a male member, so I’d held back because I didn’t think I was suited to being an answerer. I guess I was right. Sorry for causing a stir. *汗*
This is Mac. Just a small addition:
By DV, you mean domestic violence, right? Since it’s called “domestic,” it refers to “violence inflicted by a spouse, partner, or someone with whom the victim is—or was—in an intimate relationship.”
I thought the term seemed a little out of place here. Just for your reference.
