Isn\'t the caption below the main image a little bit, for a lack of a better word, sexist? When you say \"Yet.\" like that, it\'s implying that all girls will grow up to be girly, even though that\'s not always the case. I mean, I know it\'s healthier for a woman\'s psyche to be girly, but not all girls are comfortable with it or even want to get into makeup or have families. There are some who get along with guys better or prefer activities that are considered masculine. And when the main image shows an 8-year old tomboyish girl, it\'s like saying that only girls are tomboys when they\'re kids.

I find it ironic that the Yamato Nadeshiko trope allows examples and no signs of \"Yet.\" or images of kids, even though that trope is based on Japan\'s thoughts on what makes a woman flawless in their eyes. I\'m well aware that all of this sounds really petty, but that\'s my 2 cents.

Feel free to explain why this page can\'t be edited and why my thoughts are flawed, I don\'t mind.
