How should I respond when I'm told, “Doing things like this makes you such a naughty girl”? The one making me do this is you, 00-san, right? I know saying “It’s not like I want to do this” would kill the mood, but I’m frustrated that I have to suppress my own feelings and say what he wants to hear.

Maezawa from the CEO’s Office here. Thank you for your question. “You’re the one making me do things like this, you know.” I think it would be fine to say it just like that. He knows that he’s the one encouraging you to do these things, so this line is perfectly fine as it is. The key is not to say it angrily, but more in the sense of: “You’re the one turning me into your kind of woman.” As for “It’s not like I want to do this,” you should also clearly express the unspoken meaning: “I didn’t want to do it, but I’m doing it for you.” Don’t leave that part out. > Do you think he wants to feel a sense of contrast, or does he enjoy making me do things I dislike? I think he wants to feel that contrast. Since you usually dress in a boyish way, making you the complete opposite seems to be the point. He takes it to an extreme, but I also get the feeling that part of him is thinking, “You could be a little more feminine, too.” Perhaps he has come to like the femininity hidden beneath your boyish appearance.

I’m Kazu, a male member. There’s no real reason behind someone’s preferences. You can come up with an explanation, but that’s all it would be. So I don’t think that man was expecting any particular response—he just wanted to say, “You’re being naughty wearing something like that.” He probably has her wear cute, childlike outfits simply because he likes that style. I don’t think he’s thinking about any kind of contrast or anything.
