A rather particular idea has taken social networks in Japan by surprise. Arising in a popular blog where anyone can write their ideas from anonymity, The message suggests that, if women in Japan They had permission to carry swords, gender problems would be solved instantly.

In a message that went viral in the blink of an eye, it was stated: «Harassment? Single blow! Photo theft? Single blow! Work harassment? Single blow!». They definitely paint it as the definitive solution for all evils. The idea is that, by giving only women the possibility of defending themselves with swords, men would stop treating them with contemptsince they would not dare to do anything knowing that they are in danger of being hurt.
«If you take control of men, the problems are over»They said. But of course, not everything is so simple. Although women can carry swords, they could not compete physically with a man in an extended fight. The idea, although interesting, would be very difficult to apply. Laws in Japan classify swords and other white weapons as prohibited, so they can only be used by the armed forces or those people with a special permission for certain purposes.
In addition, proper handling of a sword requires practice and training. If both of them, the women themselves would risk their own safety and that of others for simple act of wielding it. But what did the Japanese think about such an interesting idea? Well let's review:
- «If they take it away, it's over».
- «Better karate».
- «Swords are quite heavy, can one really behave?».
- «Don't you need a lot of training to be able to cut with a single blow?».
- «I think even if you have a sword, you would lose against someone with a clean fist».
- «Men always walk with swords, right?».
- «I also want a gun, we live in a world where you can't say what you think without a weapon pointing».
- «They easily remove it and they only cut you».
- «Equity with a sword? Tightening tight pants!».
- «Now I understand that it is impossible for women to manage a rule of law».
- «He says that men are physically stronger, so they accept it. Don't you understand?».
- «If you hurt someone, they arrest you for injuries or murder».
- «But even if he is a criminal, you would not endure the burden of killing someone».
- «Men should also carry swords. The reason for the collection of swords in the past was because the leaders feared. Imagine that all those who are protesting in the Ministry of Finance carry swords, that would generate pressure on their own».
- «As soon as they try to unsheathe the sword, I would punch them and strangle them. If you're going to try to kill someone, get ready for that».
- «If a woman wears a sword, the others who do not wear her are going to make fun of her».
- «This idea, although strange, actually touches something central. Discrimination against women is mainly based on the idea that they are small and weak. If both are dealing with the respect they deserve, knowing that one could kill the other, society could be more efficient».
- «In the US, where it is allowed to possess weapons, one in five women is raped at least once in their life».
- «The true enemy of women is another woman. They end up cutting each other».
