they use less makeup ? really ? :D

** u beat me Nyororin :)

OMG, u should have seen it. LV bag, short skirt, makeup and then 4 inch boots and on top of the mountain..:eek:

No problem.. anytime.

** darn double post again .. sorry

sorry to every one actualy i never visted japan but i met few women on net and i found that wat i write here , look every where in the world u found many kind of people good , bad , ugly pretty faithful unfaithful fake and real .. so my experience was good so :) i wrote here :)

Perhaps some of it has to do with the fact that in most other places, Japanese are quite a minority and people are attracted to those that don't look like themselves? If there aren't that many around, when you see one, they look different and appealing, so one's thoughts go a bit askew....

In general, I don't think they look any better than anyone else. There are super hot ones and super "not hot" ones. (I don't want to be rude).

I do like their eyes and their usually high cheek bones....:)

MissMisa I'm not sure but if I had to guess your mood I'd say you've let these guys get under your skin and you've said some things which could be upsetting if ready by a Japanese girl.
Please don't let the fanatics get to you.

Regarding Japanese women, this is my honest generalization of the average one compared to the western women I've known;

• thinner
• shorter
• not prettier or uglier faces, same really, full spectrum
• more concerned with fashion (in both good and bad ways)
• they live in a culture where not wearing make-up to work is rude
• not very familiar with the concept of gender-equality
• much less opinionated
• quite reserved and quiet
• less aggressive
• expect to be led
• more dependent on parents/spouse
• a little confused between the concepts of cute and sexy
• more naive
• less bossy / pushy / demanding
• as insecure about western girls as the other way around
• less adventurous / more predictable
• not as concerned about bigger age gaps with their partner
• not as concerned about the physical appearance of their partner

There are a huge amount of women in Japan who don't fit in that description at all, this is just a massive generalization based on what I've seen.

But Misa.. "Sterotypes" don't come out of nowhere. There is always a reason, why a "Sterotype" is there in the first place.

For example, the typical "Stereotype" from English Girls is.. confident, loud, like to Party, like to get drunk, like to scream and just be rude and not polite at all, act like man, overyl confident, no inhibition level, almost no shyness.



It's the way the Japanese present themselfs around foreginers and when they are on Holidays outside of their country how these Sterotypes arise.

Japanese are the complete opposite from English or American Girls for that matter.. Western Girls.

Japanese Girls represent Shyness, Politeness a very intact inhibition level especially in public. Not loud or brash and on and on and on.. the list doesn't end.


Just a different Society with different manners = different people :ywave:


next post I'm going to talk about their looks and attractivness from the Outside!

BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA wow. You are soooo totally off the mark.

How so, when it is the "Stereotype" I have experienced on my traveling's?

Oh, please don't!!!! We already know what you're going to say.... it's sooooo obvious....

I feel bad for the one or ones you decide to eye out while you're there.... Or maybe they'll kick your @ss!!!!

You are just off the mark about Japanese women. Soooo much. Again, you will be sooo disappointed in Japan.

I think that at least some are very familiar with the concept of gender equality,and even if most aren't,there are still a fair few sexist women in Japan I should think. I think men still seem to be more sexist to women than women are to men though(I'll admit that this is just what I saw in Episode Final!) which I would never say about the UK(and what I've seen of the US),not by a long shot. And of course,some men and women might be familiar with the concept but not try and pervert the course of justice. Don't forget they are close to China so they must be getting there slowly. Very slowly,but slowly.

I think the major difference is that they are not constantly competing,which on one hand
there aren't things like female prime ministers which is bad,but on the other hand they occasionally surprise you and put them in a position which they might not be in in the West. And of course they did make an Australian girl the first foreign geisha a couple of years back.

Yeah,I think the majority of them just don't really want to bring it up. They don't like sensitive topics do they?

I think is the comparison of the dress sense and make up. Generally I think there is beaut every part of the world, but in term of dolling, Japanese and Korean ladies r more hardworking.

lol @ shoots self in face. You're funny and I also see that you get your fair share of compliments on on how pretty you are so hmph!? It seems that some men on here think of you the same way some of the other men think of Japanese girls. Meaning they adore you (aww) just like how others adore Japanese girls.

Maybe a guy doesn't like white girls, big deal? Maybe a guy loves white girls..again big deal? I know some white girls that don't like white guys- no if, ands, or buts. I'm over it! There are only like 8 billion people in the world !

Although on the flip side, it would be irritating to see all the lovely women on here going on and on about how gorgeous and superior Japanese men are to all other men. I'm sure the boys on here would have pretty lengthy arguments arguing the point.

I already have mine prepared!

Strange post to me and this IS meant to start a flame war!! no im just kidding but some things I observed here:
1) when you advise/lecture someone on how their post might be perceived as insulting some other person/race/culture do you not lose creditability when you, yourself, include what could also be perceived as an insult (i.e. fanatics)
2) Why even waste the time to generalize the "average" Japanese female and then follow it up with "huge amount of women who don't fit that description"? So there are 2 massive populations of the "average" female out there that we can generalize? and, if so, is the other population that doesn't conform to your list like the Western female? Are there 2 massive populations of the "average" female in the West and the one that isn't used as the basis of comparison in this list just like the one in Japan? So many questions! lol

quite simply, Japanese women tend to have the characteristics I listed more often than western women.

they also tend to have straight black hair, but there are heaps of women here who don't , it isn't 2 groups, just tendency, don't try to simplify it to something it isn't

Japanese Women Are Very Sensual
 

:rheart: In my opinion as a European man (from Germany)
Japanese women are attractive and very sensual :ywave:

Don't let it get to you, this forum represents a very small minority of the male population. For every guy that loves Asian/Japanese women and would never date a "white girl" there are 10 out there that think exactly the opposite way. You just won't find those people here, and not in Japan either.

Majority of Asian Women have straight black hair :vsign:

depends upon where you work.

-> really ?? they are just very subtle with the way they do it.

I think women in every form, shape and culture are are.. but I guess Japanese just brought to a whole new level :)

very true..

try being around 30-something japanese girls and u will see :vsign:

this more on the culture. most asian women are..

let me just quote my japanese manager.. "it is the bank account that matters ":vsign:

hmm.. I think u can omit kansai girls with this :)


** disclaimer: just based on observation with my Japanese girl-friends and being a female asian :vsign:

:)
I dated for some years an English girl and It was really an entire satisfaction. A big surprise! There was nothing about loud, impolite etc..she was very intelligent, empathetic and very self-confident. I've been dating all the time white girls and I'm very satisfied. I can't find better than that:)
Some people saw drunk tourist girls in holiday resorts like in "ayia napa partys in Cyprus" or in "Playa del ingles partys in Gran Canaria Spain" and they thought ALL English girls should be like this. Scandinavian girls are more drunks and noisy but I'd never say that all Scandinavian girls are like this.

It's a question of level and education. Every girl is unique and different. Western men can experience bad experiences in relationship with Asiatic girls too! The risk and the disappointment is even higher! So, there is no reason to think bad about White girls. A gut relationship is a hard work and if you succeed you will get everything which you desire from a girl:)

Ooh, that I will have to agree to, they know how to put people in a guilt trip, and find ways to convince you that it is criminal to not fulfill their demand. And the way they do it in that nagging, victimized voice is just downright annoying.....

I think thats beause they are the origin of most Asian fashion, that said, when you walk in to the country, they are always ahead of other Asian country as the others are playing catch up for obvious reason. The minute you set foot in Hong Kong or Taiwan, people don't appear to be as in touch with fashion because of this catch up, but locally, the people there will stil be following their local trend... you know what I mean???

Oh Misa don't get me wrong here.. that is still just a "Stereotype" and every Western country has lovely, shy girls like you, who present themself like a true sweetheart in public.

But unfortunetly this seems to be the exception with Western Girls these days, especially English and American chicks. I wish it was different too and that girls would still act like lovely girls.

Most likely, thats the reason why you fancy Japan so much over other countries :) I do as well!

Aren't Japanese lovely people mmhh :rolleyes:

Yes they are Kayci :)

Oh dont get me wrong. Some are beautiful. My friends mother is absolutely gorgeous still in her forties. But then, some of EVERY group is beautiful. However, Ms. R is sure as hell not shy or submissive. (Although she is from Osaka...so hmm.)
You will find a lot of...er...not so pretty ones. A lot of guys I know who went with that kind of thinking came back and complained about the condition of teeth of a lot of people they saw. (This adds to another stereotype, that Japanese never take care of their teeth.)

You are also apparently expecting them to always be shy and submissive and always kind. Face it, Japanese is still a country, you will still get a lot of girls and boys who are jerks as well as some of the coolest people ever.

What are they likely to do,just so I'm prepared? What kind of things do they say?!

Oh I am always only talking about the vast majority of people :vsign:

Exceptions are everywhere you go.. are there less exceptions in Japan? Hell Yea!!

Um...no. Not that. Its just the same as any country. Some are gorgeous, some are okay, and some are...eh...this goes in personality too.

However... I would be wary of the people who seem soooo anxious to date you as soon as you come to Japan. You dont want to be the shiny toy that they want to be the first to play with.

No it's not the same as in any country.. this is Japan we are talking about. A completely different society with completely different people who have a compeltely different mindset.

But yea you can live in your dream that the Asian World is exactly like the Western World if you want lol :rolleyes:

I dont have that kind of a dream. I have the kind of reality where its part of the world, and you see all types of people there. (Hell, if you had a mixi.jp, or was able to get it, I would show you through mine. That would so not be what you want. Believe me.)

Your dream is that Japan/Korea are the absolute superior for what they are, and in some ways, (Like baseball in my opinion) they are. But that kind of ultra-special thinking is very unrealistic.. Japan can be cool, as can Korea. But do not presume it all to go the way you want. I am going tomorrow, and if my ex-boyfriend/best friend was not taking care of me with his family, I would be so much more nervous for it could be anything-goes.

Oh it's certainly a part of this world, just a very different part!

But I just don't feel like you are mature enough to realize this yet..

Dude, I am pretty sure I know what I am talking about, since its established that you have not been around them that much in the end, and despite me not being a resident, I grew up with Japanese people who immigrated here. Ever since I was eight, I was preparing myself to go. I had the same kind of image YOU did when I was 13-14. I got rid of that quickly after my first real boyfriend was Japanese at age 16, and I got even closer to the community. Most of my friends went to japan or are in Japan now.

Do you even speak Japanese?

So you even compare Japanese-Americans to real Japanese..

I know what I am talking about trust me! Very different people yes because yes, they have grown up very differently.

Different culture just very, very different to the Western World.

No, not Japanese American. They are not citizens, and most will not be called "american" in the first place. They are still Japanese, they stiill go back and forth, and as I said, a lot of my friends are currently in Japan as well. I always refer to them before I make a lot of assumptions, cause Japanese people kind of know their country better than you or me.

I'm not going to change your view about this World Kayci. If you see it that way, so be it :)

Okay, just Be careful when you get to Japan. It sucks when dreams are a bit shorted.

Why would you feel nervous to go somewhere else?

The it could be anything goes is the facinating thing about leaving your home country.

How old are you if you don'T mind me asking?

Hmm.. "Don't you think ............................................ is better and good" and "Didn't you say............................................"

Its no different from any other culture's nagging/complaining, but they are good at it.....

There is no end to any discussion unless you agree with her, its not even a matter of facts or anything like that... my cousin's wife like to use previous experieince and history... she won't say "You spent so much on that golf trip", but instead she will say things like "that golf trip wasn't too expensive, its almost the same price as this bag I wanted"...

hard to describe, you have to be there to know what its like... just example won't do, because they add the nagging voice and the facial expression to it.... somtime, the facial expression looks so doom and gloom that you think her dad died or something...

just generalization, but this is very typical with the ones that I came in contact with..

Give up girl... we tried... he will live in his own little world... apparently, he knows more than all of us who lived there and been there gazillion times....

Since the topic of korean girls came up, I will give you guys 3 story to think about (Slightly off topic)

story 1
I was seeing this Korean girl for about 2 weeks during my university years. She just landed in Canada for about 3 months at the time. We were not dating, no kiss or hand holding or anything physical at all. We went to the movie once, while lining up for the ticket, this caucasian girl, long legs very very pretty, said "Excuse me" and try to walk pass us. I look at this girl briefly, for maybe about 2 seconds. Turn around and had a palm across my face.. she started going nuts saying things like I didn't respect her and crap, and that i should never look at, or even think about another girl when i was on a date with her

story 2
An good of mine were dating a korean girl(about 8 years ago), they've been together for about 7 months, girl was an immigrant for about 2 years at the time, living together sharing an apartment. Like all relationships, there were ups and downs. Once, they had an argument, over something trivial (I think about how he always go out for beer with his friends on Fridays)..... the argument happen on a Tuesday or wednesday night, and they didn't talk to each other. Thursday morning, the office gave him a notice that they need him to fly out to BC for a couple of days. He took off on Friday morning without telling her. The girl went crazy, calling everyone looking for him, she thought that he was with me, and practically camped outside my place till around monday, calling me like every 15-20 minutes. When Mike came back on the following wednesday, he open the door to his apartment, anything that worth something is missing, anything that worth nothng was cut up by exacto knife. Police was involved and all that

story 3
One of my dad's business associate married a Korean girl. 9 months into the marriage, she accuse him of cheating, without any confrontation or discussion, her, her dad and her brother wait for him at home after work and beat the living day light out of him.......

just something i think worth sharing...

LMFAO!!!

The first one was epic!! Imagine if Cooper had witnessed that he's whole fantasy world would've been shattered to pieces.

The people in here truly believe that Humans don't differ no matter where they come from :D On a Japan Forum Hahahaaahha

You guys crack me up :whiteflag:
