Hight issues?
 
Hello everyone.

I have a few questions regarding possible hight issues while living in japan that i'd like to ask.

I'm 6'2. Will i have any problems ( probably just minor annoyances ) with public transportations? What about being indoors? Specially if most traditional japanese houses have really low ceilings.

I'm just concerned because i've seen quite a few pictures and videos of apartments that gave me this idea that i would have to duck everytime i'd go through a doorway xD Though it may be different for each house/building, etc.

So what's your advice on this? Any big guys out there that have had problems? Or will i be completely fine?

As in the above post, all the active members who would be able to answer your questions have left this board as it is filled with spam bots and there is virtually nothing that can be done to combat it. You will indeed have much better luck if you follow the link and go over to the new forum. It wasn't a random spam link, though I can't blame you for thinking it was after looking at this place.

You'll get stared at. If you have blonde hair and blue eyes to go with it, you'll have an easy time getting a job or getting laid. Race is the only thing that matters in life. Short foreigners don't have it all too good in Japan, but they can pull it off if they aren't Black. Japanese admire height in foreigners.

Ignore that guy - he is self hating and has never been to Japan so has no idea what reality is like. He just likes to come up with ways he would be screwed over if he did go.

As if getting laid was my number one concern. Heck, this is one of the reasons i'm moving there. I just can't stand the stupidity that lurks in western society (not everyone, but the majority) specially regarding an overall respect for women.

You think that the more you get laid, the more important you will be? Pfff. Ignorant individual.

Learn to appreciate the beauty in certain things. Open your eyes son.

PS: Thank you Nyororin. I'l check out that website. It's a shame people are leaving this one. Not to mention that this one looks better.

That is the first time I have heard that, but everyone is entitled to their opinion.

This website hasn't been updated for 4 or 5 years, at least.

The number of *active* users is probably 10 times the number here (and those that are still active here have mostly moved over there also.)

I agree that there is a lot more of an archive here, but Japanologic is less than a month old. :D
