Do Japanese Girls Want to Date Western Guys? 

Nice video and can you look at the langue apps she see which is the most natural way of speaking?

I love Tippsy. Best place to get Dassai Daiginjo

1:33 beautiful, would like to have coffee with her. Can you connect me?

I was so close to visiting South Korea and Japan at one point. I'm a Motion Capture actor and in late 2015 I was in contact with Capcom about the facial likeness role of Leon for the Resident Evil 2 Remake. I failed to mention I also have a voice acting background, in the end I lost the part and I can't forgive myself for wasting such an opportunity. That would've been a real dream come true to work in Japan and visit South Korea.

@@AnxMa I have Rez 2 (i think) but that's super cool!

It's a huge relief. Being clean shaven sucks.

Looking good!

​@@microcolonel yeah

Lol

facial hair is literally biologically a secondary sexual traits signaling puberty, that u are sexually matured. Being clean is gay.

Lol why

​@@AC-mc6uqbecause it shows cultural changes and since japan is very close too its traditions but is also a Hightech society soo there is a lot of contrast to Westen countries but maybe older people around the world have all the same thinking about the younger generations that would be quite comedic if you hear the same traveling about respect as a day before in your hometown

Fuck yt editing is bugging out mean rambleing not travelling 😅

It is more interesting to listen to people in their 40s than older people.

Love the idea! Haha but takashi only interviews beautiful women 😊

Hey brother thanks you for your service. Just wanted to say that you enjoyed doing the things you wanted to do and you should be happy with that fact. Honestly the nightclub girls at the oversea bases aren't exactly "adequate" and they don't really represent true Japanese people. They are mainly there for the quick fun with the Westerners. You would have been better off just doing you or traveling alone to the mainland. And the clubs aren't for everyone brother so never worry about missing out just enjoy the things you like to do. Be safe brother!

@@lt.dashkov1079 Thank you very much for the comment. And also thank you as well for your service. When I first arrived on Okinawa, several Marines decided to welcome me aboard by taking me to several "buy me drinky" bars. They all got ripped down drunk and spent a lot of money. I knew immediately that my time spent on Okinawa would not be done doing that. There were just far too many other better activities to do and beautiful places too see and explore. I have very good memories of my time there and hundreds of photographs of remote and kinda hidden places. I had one time where I did get to interact with a Japanese family. They were farmers farming sugar cane and the father had recently died leaving his family in a rough spot during harvest. A group of us volunteered to drive a 5 ton out to their farm and help them harvest all their sugar cane. It was so much fun taking machetes and just going at it in their field chopping the cane down and loading it up for market. That family was bereaved of the loss of their father but they were so polite and nice.

Imagine reading this and commenting "gay" Just admit you're a nobody and never will be anything other than a woman chaser

You did you and sounds like you did the things you wanted to do and didn’t heed to the pressure of doing what everyone else seemed to be.

Bro you can still talk to a hottie at a coffee shop lol just tell her her "haircut looks new or?"

Madam, you are an amazing woman to overcome issues and will be a very inspiring person. thanks for sharing your successful life with us. 🙏

The wheelchair thing is kinda hot ngl

@@WingusJoneswhat? dawg you’re creepy asf ☠️😊

actually good question. a friend asked me for tips on visiting japan with her friends of which one is in a wheelchair and I quickly realized that since japan is so mountainous i did A LOT of stuff thats very inaccessable to wheelchairs. there's plenty to do in the cities but outside of them its difficult. also most public areas are completely equipped for wheelchair users.

I was in a wheelchair for 7 years, now get around with a stick and my Segway. So I walked, until I was 32 and then spent my thirties in a chair after which I again walk (since 10y now) so I really got a serious enough stretch in a chair to feel all aspects of the differences, and accessibility is of course one of the biggest factors but is not THE biggest depending on how you see it. As I see it (within reason in the western world) accessibility rarely force you to give up needs but it does have a huge impact on how much hassle and energy plus time it takes to do "needs" on top of what most people need to invest to get a rested hour to put on wants. Or save up such time and energy for a vacation for that matter. If shopping takes 3h extra and all your energy for the day sure you got what you needed but the 3h and all your energy for the rest of the day had to be taken from what you want. Time spent with friends, with family. Hobbies etc. That is the price, not whatever you wanted in the shop you could not get into. That you got anyway, but on top of $$$ you had to put in "a dinner with friends" to get groceries for 2 days. I now have a totally different view on the importance of accessibility. Sure "they" can go to another shop 300m down the street. They will. But those 600m extra has a price far beyond what most people think. And STILL I see that as only one of the biggest aspects of being in a chair. Going to japan, I have NO doubt accessibility is great, in cities. Less so in smaller ones as is to be expected to some degree. And Im pretty sure @nicolebette knows that as well and that the bigger thing is in her [EDIT] Your sence of dignity. Without it you wont get a good vacation anywhere after all. The biggest cost in your life sitting down compared to standing up in my point is that close to everyone you meet initially assume you are mentally challenged to some degree just because of the chair alone. Meaning, they often ask questions about you to a friend standing beside you before adressing you, if they do directly they do so in a calm clear voice using language that you would someone who needs stuff dumbed down a knotch. And sure you can tell them, and often do, it is really infuriating but then again. If you always do you basically start every new meeting with new people showing them you were difficult from first word spoken to them. For something most people genuinely did to BE nice to you. But did not understand themselves , came from the worst possible way of helping you, Assuming you are mentally handicapped and adapting to that assumption BEFORE the first word spoken. And that being a problem every where I was in a wheelchair, i traveled quite a lot, it is everywhere. Bit less In some places, worse in others. But I bet Japan is likely to be a really bad one on this front. As all my experiences with Japan has tought me: Any percieved weakness or basically being different heavily devalues you in most peoples eyes. So I'd be seriously worried about my chance of getting a good vacation because of that "fact" as a foreigner in a wheelchair in japan. Hopefully I'm about to be proven wrong though, but until then I'd be hesitent to say the least. I'd love to hear the experiences of a, say, american or european person in a wheelchair who lived in japan for a couple of years actually. If you find such a person, that persons experiences would be super interesting. And hopefully shames ME for thinking this might be a worse problem going to Japan than to many other places. I 'd be glad to accept that shame in fact. But hearing from foreigners who has lived or visited Japan in a wheelchair would no matter what be very interesting. :)

Yeah I noticed that too. Lol

@@nely26 great minds think a like..lol 😊

100% true - 😂. It sucks so much and feels so disrespectful every time.

why do you think, "reading the room" only applies to "until it vomes to dating". Actually "reading the room" is ubiquitous in Japan and you almost never talk in a direct manner. Be it before dating, in a relationship or any other situation,... maybe not, when they are drunk though

Would you marry a foreign guy/girl would be such a good title of the video haha

By data, most people prefer to marry their own race, so most likely they prefer to marry their own kind. The thing is, people will say they dont mind to marry foreigner, but they are not honest cuz they are in front of the camera. However, since most people stick to their own race, therefore most likely they wont marry outside.

It would interesting to know if they treat dating differently than the west. Like Dating is to find out if you want to marry this person? In the west modern dating is more about having fun

​@@CoolNumber1That data doesn't necessarily indicate people "are not honest" about marrying a foreigner. Naturally, if 99% of the people around you and that you regularly interact are the same race, you're significantly more likely to end up marrying someone of the same race. Especially in a country like Japan. Then factoring in the likelihood of similar ideals and cultural values commonly derived from where you grew up, it just makes sense. You could be right about people not being honest " my point is just that the data you cited isn't a direct indication of that as it's circumstantial.

@@jcarby23 Not really. Even the asian america mostly stick to their own race. America majority are white, so that's mean they interact with white people a lot and yet still stick to their own race for the most part. Since those Asians live in America, they are used to American culture. It's biological instinct to prefer those who look like you because you feel more connected and feel more home. When you feel connected, the other person will view you as more attractive. Because look aren't the only thing in attraction. Attraction comes with many factor like good personality, look, attitude, culture, or looking the same, and so on.

In general it may be interesting to date a foreigner but the question of a long-term relationship may also be harder because of the differences and Japanese are more focused on dating as a method towards long-term relationship and then that as a means towards marriage. I think some of the advice for foreigners is to understand: 1. Japanese language 2. Cultural behaviour eg "confession" 3. Indirect communication is preferred in Japan 4. Being clear about one's own intentions and goals and considering the other person's goals (this applies to all relationships tbh). As you point out making things work together so there's no discomfort or misunderstanding or awkwardness and things are clear and structured. Well said.

@@commentarytalk1446 "3. Indirect communication is preferred in Japan 4. Being clear about one's own intentions and goals and considering the other person's goals (this applies to all relationships tbh). . . " Seems like a contradiction. If your intent is to be "clear about one's own intentions and goals," seems to me the last thing you'd want is "indirect communication."

@@randyevermore9323 Long-Term Plans = Clear. Communicating = Indirect. The former is about organization and the latter is about appreciation. Yes I did jumble the two together. Then and again being accused of paradoxical seems apt in some respects...

@@commentarytalk1446 My extensive experience in Japan and with Japanese tells me they're really not that different from other nationalities in that regard: ambiguous when it's to their advantage to be ambiguous and clear when it's to their advantage to be clear.

Probably cuz more convenient and easier but if you can speak some Japanese and know the culture you have a chance as a foreigner and maybe good looking helps lmao

To me it showed they were in a good relationship.

Where are you from and how do you find Japan so far? Is there racism or xenophobia?

@@akritasdigenis4831 From what I've seen, there is kind of racism, but it's different than in countries like the US or many European countries. In the country where I'm from for example, the racism is way more direct, it's literally hate towards other races, as well as trash talking and discrimination (not everyone of course, but IF you encounter racism, it's usually this kind of racism). Japanese racism is more indirect and not because they don't like foreigners, but rather because they are kind of afraid of foreigners and therefore might avoid you if possible, though they don't (or extremely rarely) hate on foreigners or discriminate them. If anything you often have the "foreigner bonus", whereas you can allow to not follow some of their unwritten social rules (which are sometimes a pain in the a*s tbh) to 100% and get away with it, because they believe that non-japanese people don't really understand them and their mindset. Another thing is, that no matter how long you live there and how good your japanese is, you probably won't ever be accapted as a "real japanese", which for me personally is something I can live with or rather don't care about, but other people might find this offending. Also, sometimes even if your japanese is fluent, staff in supermarkets or restaurants will try to speak in english to you, which some people find offending as well. Usually though that's because they believe it's good customer service if you can talk in your mother language (even though it's not always english) and therefore having an easier time to communicate, while not realizing that it's usually harder to understand their english than to understand a japanese sentence with a few difficult words, even if you are not quite fluent in japanese.

@@sacrashin thank you for the response and for your time to write that comment!

@@sacrashin thanks for the inside's. I might move to Japan for a year next April. I'm already nervous

So tap and scrap as most it is their only worth

Yes that was one of the most important differences. However, I don't think most nations in the West are as serious about the confession as the Japanese and I wonder if younger people even do that or just hang-out together and go on dates and see how it goes? The pick lines I see especially from US people is to approach the person and say how they find them attractive and if they can have their number and then go out with each other... unfortunately if they don't like them they then ghost them and never speak to them again. It's not treating people as seriously. Everything is too fast and disposable in the West in that way and leads to bad behaviour because of low standards.

@@commentarytalk1446 i don’t think it’s so much as everything is fast and disposable in the US as it’s we have tons more media that glorify and like…make romance a bigger deal than it really kind of looks like. i forget the word for that. i’m not saying japan is too prude about it or whatever but making big lovey dovey displays of affection ain’t what they like to do and that would also affect a foreigner’s perception of how they should love someone bc we’re so used to every other movie and show showing us that love is displaying and being straightforward with our affections

@@necobubbles That's brilliant observation and way of putting the difference in one way. Culture plays it's part on expectations in a big way. With that said, to build on the topic, I have the impression in the West, that LTR (long-term relationship looking for a potential spouse/marriage) has loosened into dating (looking for a romantic interest) which has loosened into "hook-up"/one-night-stand culture and then so with the speed of dating apps accelerating that "disposable/consumable" attitude and behaviour even more? But equally as you say the culture puts WAY too much emphasis on romantic love as being the source of all happiness and an end unto itself instead of perhaps fertile grounds (pardon the pun) for a long-term relationship leading potentially towards starting a family? If dating becomes a numbers game, then the quality/value of each date probably decreases, I'd guess and that explains a lot of the dissatisfaction? There's also the fact I'd guess, in the West people are dating older either after putting careers first or as single mothers and my guess is it's a lot harder to date with a view to marriage then with people more worn down by experience and cynical and also set in their own individualistic ways? Long-term relationships are as much a process you believe in and buy into as they are finding personal satisfaction or "romantic ecstasy" as portrayed in the movies. That may be true at the beginning but the rest is a lot of hard-work, building together!

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Can i ask does having a spouse from indonesia means u have converted to their religion? not sure about the country,

@@TheSourcerer111 My spouse and I share the same religion. Yes, it is common for people to change their religion to be the same as their spouse. For some, they maintain peace i.e., two different religious beliefs co-exist in the same household. A few of my cousins whose parents (my aunties and uncles) have two different religions.

Most Japanese women have never dated a foreign man so they get their ideas of foreign men from Hollywood movies. When they actually date foreign men, cracks and flaws often begin to show in the relationship and it fails. Only around 1% of Japanese women marry foreigners, including Asian foreigners (most foreign husbands in Japan are Korean men) again most of these women get their ideas of men from kdramas and Hollywood. Not reality. And then the marriages often fail because the man didn’t meet her expectations. And the foreign man doesn’t understand Japanese marriage which is like a dead bedroom business contract and the wife becoming cold towards him/only wanting his money after a few years. There’s a reason many Japanese men don’t want to marry anymore.

I believe what they're saying is they shower both in morning and at night. It makes sense since the idea is to not bring negative energy (and germs) into the home.

@@Native_Creation In Taiwan, they only shower in the evening. I would assume it's the same in Japan.

@@martialdoctor3482 Aside from the athletic types who work out in the morning, I would say this is the case. They mostly shower at night.

I know a lot who do both on workdays. Morning hot shower to get you awake if you need to hit the road very early AM.

🖕from Japan❤

Because Foreigners means Europe and the image of Europe created by the media is only positive. definitely they also have a negative side like drug addicts, homeless people and gun violence, robbery and human trafficking and all those issues. But these issues are neglected. ( Maybe just the sake of beauty standards) But at the same time other asian county means poverty and filled with garbage etc such an image is created ( it may be true to some extent ) but that doesn't mean they have nothing on the positive side. It is just ignored

they dont care they see whites as exotic and non whites as "foreign"

@@flynnoflenniken7402 Pretty much my same routine. Cold showers are king.

Body odor doesn´t mean sweat by default. There are just people that smell different. Especially in some regions of the world where a lot of spices are used in the food.

@@Ammageddon89 I guess so sure but the video was talking about showering so…

Every one sweats a bit when it's warm, shower or not. The difference, on a genetic level, is that most folks of European descent develop a musk from it. It isn't necessarily unpleasent, but that trait is absent from most Asians, so it is a bit of a shock. I showered twice a day and once more when I would work out or just be outside is the Southern USA summer heat while I dated a Vietnamese woman. She said she could smell it when I had been in a room, let alone near her. I was fortunate at the time that she seemed to like it.

"in general guys are quite concern about smells and they use a lot of perfume and deodorant" Perfume/deodorant/any smell is not well perceived in japan

Most people of any race are not particularly happy when people of their race date people of other races. This is not racism but tribalism - you do not want to lose somebody from your "tribe" to another "tribe". This happens subconsciously and is rooted in biology.

I'm Japanese. Personally, I don't care so much about that.

@@renren8 Well in East Asia has more males to female ratio. So some asia males might die alone since they are not enough females to balance out. Hopefully not you, or your sons or grandsons though. If too many foreign men flock to East Asia, it will cause gender imbalance. If you are already married, you probably don't care, but it doesn't mean your sons, and your grandsons might be able to find a wife due to the gender imbalance. You have to look at the big picture sometimes regarding gender imbalance. No parent wish their kid to be alone, they obviously wish their kid to get married someday. Yeah your not looking at the big picture enough. Imagine those men who can't get married due to gender imbalance, imagine you are in their shoes. Even if you are an asian female, you still suffer since ur sons can't get married and die alone from loneliness. In a sense, everyone suffers.

I don't care much if other japanese dated nor got married foreigners. I don't want politicians and powerful people to get married to foreigners though.

Partly true as well. Plus as a hispanic was thought to always shower at night. Albeit that has changed in the states I have lived and currently living in. In the summers I take showers in the morning then followed after work and gym. Winters roughly the same. But winters here a rough so I do it only at night.

Diet has a lot to do with it in some cases.

It’s probably because Japanese dudes have way less body hair than western guys. Armpit hair, for example, traps odor-causing bacteria.

yes i think it's true. to check if you have body odor, see if your ear wax is dry/wet. apparently if it's dry, you are lucky and have no "body odor"
