the sexism in naruto is actually so crazy and all encompassing. every female character is defined by her relationship to men. the majority are boy-crazy. and it’s constantly remarked upon how weak they are when compared to their male teammates.

not only that but the main male characters actively dislike the women they’ve been paired off with. shikamaru is into temari but his infinite dream is not having to marry her. sai ends up with ino despite finding her ugly. naruto thinks hinata is weird and boring. sasuke’s dislike of sakura is infamous.

adult men’s interest in women is seen as comical and alien. (reactions to the sexy jutsu, jiraiya harassing women). almost all of the adult men are perpetual bachelors or sex perverts (and those who aren’t are stand ins for “mom and dad”).

when boys actually do like girls, it’s to show goofy immaturity and innocence (naruto’s crush on sakura that he grows out of as he reaches maturity, lee’s crush which is dropped entirely, obitos crush on rin which lasts into adulthood just to show he isn’t entirely separate from the boy he once was)

the whole ninja society likes to imagine it is a mostly gender blind world where women can thrive but this is SO obviously untrue. women are almost always healers and support. women make up less than 1/3 of the ninjas even at genin level. girls are almost all desperate to become wives and earn the attention of boys who don’t even like them!

mikoto uchiha was a jonin and presumably directly descended from the uchiha line (based on characters commenting that she/sasuke look just like izuna uchiha), but we only ever see her retired and raising her sons while her husband gets to be clan leader. (why?? if he married into the main family and she is an extremely capable ninja??)

similarly kushina uzumaki is borderline royalty and a jinchuriki, but her husband is hokage. once again the mother carries on the burden of power (for her sons to inherit) but the father has the title and status.

even the backstory of ninja enforces this. kaguya literally ate the forbidden fruit, giving the gift of chakra to all of humanity but also dooming them to fight for eternity. literally womens original sin …

anyway it’s not that all this sexist shit is in the story. it’s that kishimoto seemingly has no idea it’s there and believes the women he writes have epic girl power. how do you even do this by accident. why does every boy hate their wife. why did kaguya commit the original sin ! the girl characters want so badly to be with a boy but they don’t even care that the boy doesn’t like them back!! sakura and hinata are in loveless marriages of obligation and THEY DONT EVEN CARE??? they’re into it??? does kishimoto think men are universally forced to marry women they don’t like? does he blame women for this?WHY IS THE ORIGINAL SIN DRIVING THE BUS ALL THE SUDDEN?

Most of us are fortunate enough to live in places that, when we need to drink some water, wash the dishes, or shower, it isn't even something we need to think about. It's just the flick of a tap or the push of a button. That ease is a faint memory for so many in Gaza, especially the little kids who have to walk far & queue for hours, just to get a gallon or two of water for their families to last the day.

1 gallon = ~3L -> most people in the global north rely on anywhere from 80 to 350L a day. you should be drinking ~3L a day, forget everything else

(obvious point but) dehydration sucks -> that feeling of your throat and tongue sticking every time you swallow, your heart pounding so hard and fast you can feel each beat in your extremities, the blood rushing in your ears as you pant, feeling dizzy and the pressure building up into a headache, being relentlessly tired all the time & struggling to focus. and that's just if you're mildly dehydrated. severe dehydration can lead to death (kids under 2 & the elderly are particularly vulnerable to this). chronic dehydration can lead to long-term (& easily avoidable) illness (e.g., anything from kidney stones to kidney damage)

lack of clean water = lack of basic hygiene = spread of disease (e.g., hepatitis A -> 40,000 recorded cases of HepA in Gaza from Oct. 2023 to Oct. 2024. In the previous year, it was 85).

Water insecurity is a daily, terrifying reality for people in Gaza. But there's a way for us to help! Faten & her family are hoping to raise the funds to buy 2 large water tanks (~1000L each) to act as an immediate water point for themselves and around 30 other households. The aim is about $7,500 USD to get this set up (2 tanks + cost of filling them + cost of gas required to move them).

So please, donate what you can! (vetted here, #289).
