Is this Hotaru no Hikari that you're talking about? (It's the only manga I found in connection to this term.) I don't see why they are being so critical.. the idea is someone who after work goes home and takes her suit off and turns on the air conditioner and drinks a beer? Isn't that everybody? Males and females included? If people are worried about women not getting married maybe they should do something about the insane work hours in Japan. So people will actually have the energy left to socialize.
It's a better term than 'parasite women' though, at least.
...Er, let's hope it is not the same kind of 'critical examination' that Kodomo no Jikan is... >_< (I hate the concept of that manga so much... I was relieved they canceled the US release.)
Ahmadinejad frightens me for more reasons than that (reason a: he threatened to wipe Israel off the map and reason b: he's collecting nukes) but if people will criticize him for his suppression of individual liberties and freedom of the press (the Iranian secret service murdered a Canadian reporter who was investingating human rights abuses) I'm all for it. This is a very scary man.
