I understand you want to help move this forum forward...so why are you so hostile towards the newbies? Everyone starts as a newbie...how do you expect us to want to stay [and help the forum progress] when we're being exposed to "regulars" such as yourself? I can only imagine how many potentially useful members you scared away... |

What about the discrimination amongst the Japanese themselves? Thanks a lot for replying, BTW! |

If you've been in Japan awhile, you'll figure it out.
I don't think it's a topic of discussion here. Many folks don't stay in Japan long enough to know how the social system works and how the average foriegner stands. Don't give it a lot of thought. Just enjoy your stay here. Marrying into a traditional Japanese family is plenty to think about. Not to boast about it, but my family has camped on the same turf for 1200 years. As a newcomer to the clan, well........... sometimes it's tough to be accepted, even after 10 years of marriage, 3 kids and fluent Japanese. This doesn't necessarily apply to foreigners. A Japanese takes a bashing too. Stay here awhile, and I'll be happy to compare notes and share insight. You new folks........... Just enjoy. I still do. Rick |
