What is SHE on??? Did this come from her bestie Pimp Daddy O MA? High As a 🪁 in Toronto! No wonder Hazmat wouldn't/couldn't look @ her and kept ignoring her.
«“(...) I don’t care who C’baoth is or whether he felt justified or not. What he did constitutes mutiny.”
“It did indeed,” Thrawn agreed calmly. “Shall I throw him out of the Imperial service altogether, or simply demote him in rank?”
Pellaeon glared at the other. “I’m serious, Admiral.”»
Eddie starts the engine of his van, his tongue sticking out in concentration as it roars to life "Eddie, why do you make that face when you start the van?"
He grins mischievously at you, his chocolate brown irises have a flame behind them; and like a moth, you were drawn to it. "Because sweetheart, only I can turn her on," he accelerates the parked van twice to emphasize his point, as though the van was agreeing with him. You smile rolling your eyes.

I made a comment about how the lack of shoujo, josei, and female aimed series in the Crunchyroll Awards is due to sexism within the anime industry and community on a Youtube post critizing the Crunchyroll Awards for being so Battle Shonen heavy (among other things), and some of the comments I've gotten...
One dude called shoujo an "ancient genre," even though shoujo series are created and made every day, and shoujo is a demographic marker - not a genre.
Another stated that "shoujo are polyamory shows which males aren't in to and can't relate to."
???
I wish shoujo series were polyam shows, that would be so cool! But, polyam in anime barely exists. The ones that I have heard of existing are usually male targeted harem series (where the male MC ends up with all the female love interests), Otome Youkai Zakuro (one dude ends up dating twins) which is a seinen, or Star Driver which is an anime original series that also had a seinen manga adaptation.
Where are all these shoujo polyamorous anime!? lol I would like to know.
Anyway, having these discussions with these men make it painfully obvious how...unaware many (not all, of course, but far too many) male anime fans are of shoujo, josei, and other female aimed series like BL, etc. While most female anime fans are highly versed in all the different genres and demographic markers. This is, of course, all largely due to systemic sexism based issues in the anime industry and community, and in cultures and societies in general.
