HARD GAY: IT IS INTERESTING!

Razor Ramon is a shock comedian/pro wrestler from Japan whose parents named him Masaki Sumitami. His popular persona, Hard Gay, is a leather vest and chaps-wearing fellow who goes around on TV performing acts of charity for people, whether they want it or not, while thrusting his pelvis and screaming "It is interesting!" and "Haado Gei!" He has assisted crying children, and piggybacked the elderly across busy intersections. Truly this is a disturbing new hero for a new millennium.

Now, Itoyama Eitaro, a former Parliament member has written a shocked and offended article that makes him look entirely like a chump, entitled: "Do Japanese Parents Not Have Media Literacy? Why Does Yoshimoto Theatrical Market Razor Ramon HG?" The Anime News Service has the following quote from his horrified screed: "There is a vulgar TV program proving that Japan has reached a low level. Children are pleased with the appearance in which Razor Ramon HG uses a queer voice and shakes his waist saying "It is interesting". Goods sell well too and parents are buying the child leather vests and leather pants. It is the start of a certain utterly scandalous Japanese national decline."

Child-sized leather vests and pants? Is Japan turning into Paris?
