Re: that 'tough girl' bit, yeah, I hate that too (not surprisingly perhaps?). Seems like there's a variant of that "either you're a virgin or a whore" thing here, i.e. either you're a fragile blossom who needs support all the time or you're a 'tough guy' who never needs support.
Hmm, come to think of it, last Chimera I noticed another similar polarization: guys thinking either you love them and are oh-so-interested in them, or else you hate them and can't stand the smallest thing about them. It's like, maybe you're okay but I'm just not thrilled with you guy, had you considered that? :P
But that's a tangential rant. Point being, I'm not convinced guys (or people in general, for that matter) who can only see people in these polar-opposite terms, instead of seeing them as, say, individual people (crazy idea! :P) are worth bothering with. I know saying things like that doesn't generally make anything all that much better, but I just thought I'd throw the thought out there anyway. :)
