[index] Tue Sep 12 22:59:49 CEST 2006 Little Hisahito -- Its really not his fault. With a single event, the women's movement in Japan has lost another symbolic victory. After all, he's just a tiny baby, completely ignorant of the complexities of Japanese politics. I really dont like the whole idea behind the institution of Constitutional Monarchy anyway, but it would have been damn cool to have a female Head of State in Japan sometime in the future. Now that little Hisahito is cooing and pooing in the arms of his parents, Im getting the feeling that we won't be seeing equal primogeiture for some time yet. --
