Author Rants v1.2 Welcome to more pointless rambling. I hope you took that tylonal that I suggested. Well, did you? Fine then, don't complain to me when I give you a headache. On with the rant. YES THEY ARE LESBIANS Ahem, well, I'm sure my standing on the Haruka/Michiru relationship is clear now. For those of you who DON'T know me - this is one of the things that drives me up the wall - people that just can't seem to accept the fact that these two Senshi are in love. And no Haruka is NOT a guy who transforms into a girl. She's not another Starlight! There are enough of them! Heh, now my point of view on the Starlight's has been made clear too. But anyway... where was I? Oh right. Haruka loves Michiru. Michiru loves Haruka. They have a wonderful, loving relationship. They are lesbians. Wow, how simple was that? I'm sorry all you homophobic people out there. I hope the use of the word lesbian didn't offend you. Let's say it again. Lesbian. No, it's not 'Lesbo' or some other shortend form meant to be offensive. It's lesbian. Just to make sure I've made myself perfectly clear, let's go over it again. Haruka - girl. Michiru - girl. Haruka and Michiru love each other. Do you still not comprehend? Or do you not want to accept it? Well, if you don't want to accept it, and feel strongly enough about your belief, then there is nothing I can do to stop you from turning Haruka into a guy, or saying that Haruka has a twin brother, or that it's Haruka who loves Michiru, but Michiru feels nothing for her. Or you can believe that crappy dub shit and call them cousins. (sorry, language...) There's nothing I can do. You have to accept it on your own. But I can think you are a bigoted pig for denying true love. (well, if that wasn't 2nd grade name calling, I don't know what is ^-^) Do you want further proof that these two are lesbians and in love with each other and that I'm not just another lesbian out there trying to support gay rights or some shit like that? (language, again!) Okie dokie then. You got it. Takeuchi Naoko - the creator of Sailor Moon - clearly stated that Haruka and Michiru are in love. You can read the full interview here - http://www.crosswinds.net/~sailoreagle/realm/naoko.htm So, before I get started on how I hate close minded people, I will now wrap this up with a final: THEY'RE LESBIAN'S DAMMIT! *smiles and nods* There you have it. Two girls in love, and my support for them. -e.b.
