When the captain of your school's kendo team consistently sexually harasses you and encourages others to do so (because that is definitely what Kuno has been doing with his whole Defeat Akane In Combat To Date Her policy, no matter what he or the school itself thinks) you end up getting kind of fucked up about things. Really fucked up about things.
"I mean, that's how boys are," Akane says, uncomfortably. "Until they get older and most of them stop. And we're the age where boys are the worst about that, so." She looks away.
"How can it be normal?" she blurts out in frustration. "I mean, it's bad enough that boys can't control themselves around girls--but other boys? That can't be right. Are you sure they don't just-- think those other men are women? I. No. No, it's not-- I mean. I mean, I know there's. I know there are perverted guys who do things with other guys--I'm not completely naive, and Furinkan might be at the very edge of Nerima and Nerima might be at the very edge of Tokyo, but it's not like I'm from the boonies--but that's not. That's just.
"That's just-- perversion. Isn't it? And-- and boys are the worst, but just because they're awful doesn't mean we should let them be perverts at each other. Isn't that as bad as when they're perverts at girls? I know Ranma hated it whenever it happened to him and they were mostly doing it because they thought he was a girl!
"And-- and of course you want to be close to your female friends, because they're safe and they're nice, but that's just-- Eventually you grow up. And when the boys stop being horrible, awful perverts, you get married. That's just how things are, Connie. I don't. I don't understand this at all."
She punches a telephone pole in her frustration. There's a shallow dent in the wood and splinters in her knuckles. "Ow!" she hisses under her breath.
