Don't make the mistake of assuming that Genma is a total doofus and

that's

all there is to him.  He's more complicated than that.

     Perhaps, but he *IS* a fat, lazy moron, martial arts skill
notwithstanding.

...Genma could in no way be mistaken for being fat.  Go read the breast
growth
arc where Ranma tries to peep on Akane and gets his father, instead.

Which arc? Hmm... don't remember that one, although it *HAS* been a while
since I've read the later volumes of the manga... As for fat, don't forget
that *THIS* Genma's been at home all this time...

Maybe.  There are a few things that are a problem.

When does Genma say women/girls are weak?

The one time he made a comment about Ranma sounding like a girl, was during
Ranma's complaining about the curse.  You know the sterotype: women always
complain.

Genma has Happosai as a master and probably suffered the brunt of a few angry
females beating the crap out of him.(remember the warning Genma gave to Ranma,
right before Happy sent all those women to pound on him)

If he was lazy, he would not have gotten a job at Dr. Tofu's.  IMPO if the curses
were supposed to teach Genma something, it was to take it easy.  Non-stop martial
arts day-in and day-out.   No rest.  The panda would be the best to teach that(He
didn't seem to mind it changing in later chapters.  He was more interested in
curing his baldness. ^_^)


If the curses are suppsoed to teach something, how does a newborn baby fit
in(Pantyhose Taro)?  Panythose was baptised in Jusenkyo waters.  He was a totaal
inncoent.

Rouge(drowned Shiva) seems to like her other form.  Where does she fit in?
