So is Japanese. Just look at Wakamoto sama.

Then again, half of the most over the top things are said in English...

No Japanese isn't manly.

If you don't like a single Frank Ocean song, you have no soul.

German is pretty manly, although Russian is good too.

You need to watch more samurai films.

The language has nothing to do with samurai films.

The stereotypical samurai talk sounds pretty manly to me, and it's all in Japanese.

Let's say classical japanese, as opposed to business men in business suits. Nothing more unmanly than a salaryman.

No, a drag queen is. And since when is providing for your family not manly?

I don't know man, I've seen some downright manly drag queens.

And I mean the drunk with his tie over his head and a package wrapped up in string salaryman. WHO'S CROME DOMING!

German is indeed quite manly; even the sweetest thing sound downright terrifying when yelled in German.

Not all, hta's a stereotype. It's actually quite a sensual sounding language, like Russian.

True, it does have a pleasing sound to it, which is why I like it.

It's also fun to say.

Saying something like Squirrel (Eichhörnchen) in German sounds like your naming some horrible monster from the bottomless pit.

Either that or the Squirrels in Germany are fucking monstrous human devouring monsters.

I really think Kino so should stop the Gay Bravado thing with someone who is openly bisexual. I might have to ask Shipping Zombie (see Sockpuppet Theater) to write fanfic about Kino x The One Who Tropes.

Holy shit have you read the originals? German fairytales are almost disturbingly dark. The Original Red Riding Hood comes to mind.

I swear original Grim dark.
