It's actually a lot more fun that way.
You know, I don't think this is true at all. Literally millions of Japanese women have married non-Japanese men and live all over the world and in Japan. You do not need to be the president of a multi-billion dollar corporation to get in good with Japanese parents.

Japanese dads don't like ANYONE who dates their daughters. Being a foreigner doesn't have anything to do with it.
