Ryouga should've been allowed to kick Ranmas butt 
more often it would serve him right causing as much
trouble and then trying to blame it on someone else,

	Actually Ryouga's just as bad since he blames everything that goes wrong 
in his life on Ranma.

such as:
Genma

	Genma IS the cause of the trouble 80% of the time.  Of course Ranma 
often makes his father's blunders worse, however while Ranma causes trouble 
through pride and his temper, he has a strong sense of honor unlike Genma who 
talks about honor then forgets it whenever it gets in the way of anything he 
wants.

Akane

	Ranma orten acts like a jerk to Akane, however she's short tempered and 
tends to look at everything that happens to him through jelousy tinted shades.

Akane's cooking.....(maybe this is his only one valid >excuse)

	Akane's cooking is truly horible, however Ranma IS willing to put up 
with it for Akane's sake.  (Consider the cookie storyline.)

I must learn that techique

	OK, that's a genuine failing of Ranma.  However it almost never happens.

I'm not a girl!!!

	He's not.

A 2 thousand old prune beatme up???

	Well, his inability to deal with failure is a problem with Ranma, 
however that's because his martial arts is the single thing he's been trained to 
excell in.  When he fails at Martial arts it's like his entire life has become a 
waste of time.
