- Can you eat/do you like sushi? - Do you like Japanese women/men? - Do you like Japanese bath? - Can you use chopsticks? - Do you sleep in a futon? - Do you like Japan? - Can you speeku Japaneeezu? etc, etc. These type of repetitive questions usually irk foreigners who have lived in Japan for a while and they become angry at times as I have on occassion. But once you understand that the Japanese are only asking these questions because they have just met you and are curious about you, you begin to understand and get accustomed to it. Also, their English is usually limited and that is all they know how to ask. But it is amaxzing that virtually all Japanese you meet for the first time ask the same questions. Thus, I ahve dubbed it "the 20 question routine". Some foreigners never get used to and it only makes them that much more angrier against Japan and the Japanese. Many figure that since they have lived in Japan a while and can speak some Japanese, that the Japanese people should automatically assume they enjoy and can do all those things. It all depends on the person. But live in Japan long enough and you will encounter it. |
Japan hasn't always got British weather. After all, that part of Asia (Jpn,Korea,Chn) Are pretty hot. After all, they all have air conditioners...hehe, anyway Japan is a good place to those who think it is and those who don't. It's a matter of opinion. Imagine my country is under attack by non-stop terrorism...but I still might like my country. You guys might argue all day, but there really is no point. I'm not surprised Jpnese kids put 100% effort into their work. They're brought up strictly in those parts.....(In china too but this is a japanese forum.) Their country is one of the most modern so it is always busy too. And now Im losing my brain cos I don't know what Im on about so....:ywave:

"Chinpira", young yakuza in training or yakuza wannabes, are another matter. They are usually young, in their late teens or early 20's and can usually be spotted by their slicked or "punch perm" hair, toothpicks, sunglasses, shiny shoes and dark suits with no ties. These people can be trouble to anyone as they want to make a name for themselves. If you encounter these types just keep going and do not confront them. However, you will probably not encounter this type as you are Asian and they will assume you are Japanese. I was confronted by three of them one day while walking with my Japanese fiancee. Luckily 3 older yakuza came out of a bar and stopped it before it got bad. In 30 years, that was my only confrontation. And that was 25 years ago! |

almost all countries love white folks. why? because they think they have money. seriously. i went to this bar. and when with other foreigners, they're treated well. but when it's our turn. it's like we were ghost. i don't know how old are you, but this is reality. even my country loves white people. it's like when they see you, you're gods. did you know that no american had ever been imprisoned in my country, to pay for rape crimes? sad to say. here in this world, if you're skin is white, you're favored, regardless of what country it is. |

and people who promoted them, will say, i'm not racist, but i just think he can do the job better. and when you ask him for proof on why he is much more promoteable than us? he can't show anything. well we should know, taht guy only knows how to sniff glue and magic markers nothing else. sleep all day, and hand over the work to someone else. while he ditch his work. that's just my experience. if a white man is jacked in the philippines? media would cover it and the government would take action. but if a Filipino gets jacked, raped, it's not a big thing. comparison of how much they've lost? white man 5000 dollars, filipino or filipina, innocence and life. still which one is favored? this is reality to us. no matter where you go. if you go to the HONGKONG airport, and they saw a filipina, or you're holding a PHILIPPINE VISA, the first word you'll hear is DOMESTIC HELPER and in other countries CAREGIVER. and this is just not the philippines, lots of other countries, experience it with even their fellow asian countries. but when it comes to WHITE. RICH. Countries. they're gods. ever seen the white man's burden? if you do see it, multiply it to the highest exponent. that's how we experience racism. |
