I’m familiar with non-Western ideals, and I’m saying it’s not reasonable even for Korea. One of the other sides to the common “it’s all relative” argument is that many Westerners seemingly assume Asian countries are either inherently unknowable or inherently less progressive. That’s simply not the case.

Recently a young Korean woman was slaughtered like an animal by a guy because he felt women weren’t giving him the respect he was due as a man. He didn’t know her. She was just the woman he decided was going to pay for his ego. Korean men who could easily pass for the average geekbro commenter here on Kotaku protested

I guess I should be glad I don't work in an Orwellian nightmare of a job where having opinions gets you fired.

I’m confused... So South Korea is against women’s rights? Or am I misunderstanding things here?
