Title: The Buddhist Monk in High Heels. Episode 1. (the embed doesn't work you'll have to watch on YT)
Text: "When it comes to the clothes you choose to wear, you can wear whatever you want no matter who you are."
"Just because people say I don't look like a priest, doesn't mean I'm not one."
"I want people to see that we live our lives with many identities."
(he uses the English word "identity" for that extra special Globohomo feel)
"I worried if someone like me who liked playing dress up could become a monk."
Then it apparently shows some scripture which roughly reads: "No one listens to the man who dresses sloppy. Noble man, adorn yourself with magnificent things."
"The sutras gave me courage, and I became a monk."
"I want people to know that everyone is equal in Buddhism! Each individual shining in their own way is amazing. Persevere through your unique experiences in your unique body." ...while waving the GAE flag in a parade and signing an autograph. (He has a book: https://www.amazon.com/This-Monk-Wears-Heels-Who/dp/1786786176)
So that's a thing. Wouldn't have bothered me in the past for some reason but seeing it now gives me an uncontrollable urge to hurl and unsubscribe from NHK. Pride month never ended for them.
