[quote=Foster] Unless his sisters have *really* bad taste in men. -And they could be in-laws. [/quote] It still doesn't make sense. If they have "really" bad taste in men, he'd [i]definitely[/i] know how [i]no[/i]t to act. I'm sure Jaune has some heard some horror stories about men, which makes his behavior even worse, imo. Not better explained or accounted for. If they're in-laws, they're still close enough to teach him how to dance, so why wouldn't he be close enough to care about what kind of men they're with? [quote]He could be emulating the men he's seen having the most 'success' at impressing his sisters, based on how much they talk of them. -Which if you follow the Ben Franklin playboy-handbook ('bro-code), yes, it works (provided they think positive).[/quote] I doubt he's hanging around these guys while his sisters are flirting with them. I reeeally doubt it. And honestly, your theories are making him sound worse and worse, lol. "Well I didn't like the way that guy was hitting on my sister, but she eventually said yes, so maybe it'll work with Weiss!!" I'm not trying to sound rude, but I just disagree with Monty's / RT's ideas of development and psychology. It just makes absolute no sense for Jaune to act around Weiss the way he does when he has seven sisters. Dudes with [i]one[/i] sister have a better idea how to treat women. [quote]It is a tad hypocritical to call any Weiss/Ruby hate/adore-to-respect/respect ship-development as character development (despite setbacks) and how Jaune is trying to figure out how non-incest relations work as anything else. [/quote] Ruby and Weiss got their issues and misunderstandings solved in a week. Multiple issues, I might add. Jaune took more than a whole semester to figure out what the hell a simple "no" means. And that's just not appealing in a boy, man, or anything. For a lot of women (myself included), the most off-putting thing in a guy is not accepting "no means no." So Jaune just was painted in a non-appealing light for a lot of people. So no, I don't agree it's hypocritical. Ruby-Weiss character building was relatable and made sense for the overall story . Jaune's persistence was uncomfortable and spun to make him look sympathetic, which is what's extremely unfortunate it.
