So there.  ^_^

TWELVE KIDS?!?!?!

Wot the hell was all that about gender stereotypes?

What does having a large family have anything to do with gender
stereotypes?  In this story, Akane is a Congressperson, runs the
business end of the family dojo, has published several well-received
political essays, and still has time to make sure all of her children
grow up to be perfect.  With Ranma's help, of course.
 
Yeesh!  Zen thinks that Lawson-san should read his own propaganda!

C'mon, Zen, you're being unfair.  I fully believe one can have a large
family and still be a feminist.

And I'm slightly offended that you think my pro-feminist views are
propoganda.

Twelve kids!

Again, why does having a large family mean that Akane is doing nothing
besides raising the family.  In fact, since Ranma is home all day anyway
running the dojo, it would make more sense that *he* is the one spending
more time raising the kids than Akane.
