That real-life example you gave really sums up the essence of Sguan really well and is very akin to many conversations and discussions my friend and I have had around his segments in the manga. They were truly intriguing and mind-opening, if one is ready and willing to challenge ones own world view and question the things we take for granted.

To answer your question, how it makes me feel, what you have explained: I am from a country that falls firmly into he "outsider"-category of this example and I'll be honest, my first reaction was ... sorrow. That is because I grew up around dogs, my family and close friends have dogs that are treated as family members, so the thought of them coming to harm or being eaten is an unpleasant one. For me though that is a purely "inwards feeling" and there is no "outward feeling of disgust or anger, because I understand and respect that cultures are different. Hence why it took less than 5 seconds for me to end up with the question "Why don't I feel the same sorrow for the animals that are eaten in my culture?" And I can answer this on a rational level, but it still is baffling to me on an emotional and societal / cultural level. But before becoming to philosophical, to summarize, my reaction to "you being Saguan" as well as many of the Saguan-passages in the manga was introspection and questioning my own believes / view and why they are the way they are, mixed with dread at the fact that in real life many people will react (as you have pointed out as well) with disregard if not hostility to anything that does not fit into their own view.

Thank you. I wish more people turned to introspection like you did when their belifs/ worldviews are challenged. THere are many conflicts that we see day to day that can be avoided if people truly tried to sit down, think, and understand each other.

It really shows how Paru-sama's writing skills, getting such a delicate topic of conversation woven intricately into the story in sech an engaging way~
