Why You Can NEVER be Pretty in JAPAN 

Ikr!!! I wish her happiness and prosperity

Yessss

too bad she is promoting a body that will damage the health of others im glad she's happy though

​@chiefpanda7040 she's not telling anyone to become her size so how is she "promoting" it??

@@simsxie she is normalizing obesity, for example if i were to walk outside with a top hat on and showing off my top hat I would be normalizing top hats, I'm not hating on her I just think we should promote a healthy society so we can all be prosperous

I love the first two!

Her hair product is called Jigeecurls. The website is in the description, but I think it only ships in Japan at the moment.

It's good to know if I ever have to travel to Japan for work and can't get my hair in order.

Majin Buu??

@@OctavianAsix lmao

Chubby women = fat. Fat = unhealthy. Cant believe we in the west are promoting this. Its like promoting drinking alcohol. Oh im not a drunken fool, im just having fun. No , no ,no. It is what it is. Maybe the Japanese are to skinny, wich is also unhealthy. But dont turn it around.

Don't be discouraged. It's like this in every country. The USA has ridiculous beauty standards, too. What's worse about America is it changes every 5 to 7 years.

All of them are of course lol

Hello and good day, a standard is a standard, it would be no different than having a financial standard, or a height, education standards. Now the more detailed you are with said standards the more you narrow your options/ fishing hole, but that's called free will.

They're horrible, and pointless. Everyone has such different standards, so why try to adhere to just one?

@@GenerationNextNextNext unfortunately for right now that's how the world works. If there's a car you want, or an apartment complex, maybe even a restaurant you would like to eat at those ie I've mentioned above has standards/ rules/ requirements you must meet in order to enjoy what those things have to ofter.

@@GenerationNextNextNext think about for yourself if your in a relationship your partner had to meet certain requirements / standards and meet certain expectations in order to be with you.

@@Nightcall411 Beauty standards are the least practical reason to be in a relationship. Maybe that's why Japan (and most of East Asia) is experiencing a birth rate crisis. Beauty doesn't guarantee a strong and healthy family. Beauty fades with age. What is the point in having that as a requirement? NONE. Many beauty standards don't even align with HEALTH, like having a "peach butt". What does that have to do with health? What does a small face have to do with health? None of it is important. Until these people understand how wasteful and childish those standards are, they will never build lasting and mature relationships.

as a japanese guy i agree

@@hailhydra8888 Mochiron lol

I respect how she doesn't let it phase her. U can't control other ppl's thoughts.

She will still not believe she is pretty or good enough, trust me.

That's misogyny for you. A timeless classic.

I'm not sure, but in my video you can see that they say that the standards are imposed by the fashion industry and are used by women for women and not for men.@@fjdoucet1465

I watched your video and it was very interesting. I subscribed to your channel.

@@cuculain78 Thank you verymuch!

☝️🦧🤡

Eh???

A very passive, aggressive way of saying "YOU should lose weight because if you're fat, it's your fault"

I think it's in the descriptions. I think it's called Jigeecurls.

first impression is very important in every country tho.

@@ALLKASDLLS-mg4lu very true I feel Japan 🇯🇵 takes it to a whole nother level. Someone told me they wore sweats there and got funny looks.

You stopped dating the guy bc you weren't skinny enough?! He dumped you?

Fat positive/body positive doesn't exist to tell people not to take care of their health. They are telling people not to be cruel and mean to them just because of it. Their doctors can tell them what weight is best for them. No one should be evil to anyone or discriminate against anyone just because they are "unhealthy". If anything, we should treat unhealthy people with more kindness because they need our support. Would you treat someone with cancer cruelly by bullying them because they're "unhealthy"? No. Yet, people do this to people who are of a certain weight. They want to bully them into submission. What is the point in that? No one gets influenced to gain or lose weight, so bullying doesn't solve anything. I feel that your story is made up and you are commenting just to prove a political point. I'm superbly skinny, but my hemoglobin was at 4! I have chronic anemia and have to have a hysterectomy because I can't carry my uterus. Being too skinny can also come with health risks. This is why we don't look at a person to decide health. We talk to our doctors to decide that.

​@@GenerationNextNextNext you did it to yourself Like the fats People are just trying to help y'all But I think it's a silly notion, why try to save people who literally can't do the right thing Same as telling people to not smoke, pointless

Lol ok Holmes

I mean, in the west we promote, advocate, and worship obesity and being fat which is known to have both short and long term negative health effects.

@@astrayagrarian No one promotes it, educate yourself its embarrassing. if anything its the opposite due to social media.

@@yumesakura23 here in America and in the West, the mainstream narrative is “being fat/obese is perfectly ok because body positivity” also “as long as I’m happy and I feel good in my body” Not sure what reality or universe you’re living in?

@@astrayagrarian Uh, the fact that there are a lot of fat people in the US doesn’t mean that being fat is the the ideal of beauty now? Are you living in bizarro world or something? If that was the case, people everywhere would be going on diets to gain weight and taking weight gain supplements. Instead, weight loss drugs and things like “flat tummy teas” are still super popular. Like yeah, in the past 10-15 years the most desired kind of body for women has become “thicker” in the US, but people try to achieve said thickness through working out to build muscle in places like their butts and thighs or through procedures like BBLs. Just look at how many fitness influencers are out there in social media and how many followers they have. There ARE societies in the world that truly prefer for women to be fat, and they go to the same extreme extents to be fat as women elsewhere go to be thin and/or built. In some places in North Africa, teenage girls are straight up force-fed as many calories as a body builder eats during a day by their families to gain weight because they fear they won’t be able to get married if they’re not fat. This is called Leblouh. Feel free to look it up. That’s as damaging as extreme dieting or extreme exercise is and no one in their right mind would promote anything like that. Instead, the reason you see more fat people now than you’d see during the, I don’t know, 50s or the 60s is because being able to have a proper exercise routine and afford healthy food is something that requires both a lot of free time and a considerable amount of money these days. Unlike during most of the story of humanity, where poor = skinny, nowadays poor people are generally able to feed themselves. The issue is, they’re mostly only able to feed themselves with cheap food, and the unhealthiness of cheap food has increased dramatically during the years. If someone has to work three jobs to get by, their diets are probably going to be comprised mostly of cheap, filling food and they won’t have the time to hit the gym either. You’ve probably noticed that, in the US, people who are very fat tend to be lower class. It’s why you see people in mobility scooters in places like Walmart instead of in high-end stores. I feel like people tend to largely misunderstand what body positivity is about. Literally no one wants skinny people to suddenly become fat and, if you find someone saying so, they’re either trolling or have a weight gain fetish. Body positivity is, at its core, just people wanting to live their lives without being mistreated for being “ugly”. That’s why it doesn’t only apply to fat people, but people with deformities, skin conditions, just plain traits that aren’t seen as conventionally beautiful (aquiline noses, for example), etc. All they want is to be able to live without being treated as if they’re subhuman. Is a fat person unhealthy? Who knows! Probably yes, because, as I mentioned above, being perfectly healthy is costly nowadays. But the average thin person is probably not perfectly healthy as well for the same reasons. There are lots of people who look outwardly thin but suffer from things like high cholesterol levels, high blood pressure and heart issues. In fact, if a fat person drops weight too quickly due to extreme dieting or an ED, they’ll often end up much unhealthier than they were in the first place, even if they’re skinnier. But even if someone is unhealthy, they still shouldn’t be bullied. A lot of people are unhealthy because they smoke or drink too much alcohol, but they’re largely left alone. The hate fat people get is because people find them ugly, not because people don’t want them to be unhealthy. “I only treat them like that because they’re unhealthy and I want them to do better” is just an excuse bullies use to feel better about being horrible people. If that wasn’t the case, fat people wouldn’t be treated horribly for doing things like being in public, wanting to wear clothes that fit them or going to the gym. Isn’t that counterintuitive? If you want them to be healthier, then by all means you should encourage them being out and about, exercising and doing so in clothing that allows them to move freely, don’t you? To sum it up, the fact a lot of people are fat in the US doesn’t reflect the “standard of beauty” and it never did. There were already tons of fat people back in the 90s and the 00s when the Kate Moss body was at its most popular. The thick women that are popular now achieve this look through exercise and plastic surgery, not through getting fat. Body positivity is simply about wanting to be able to do completely normal things without being ridiculed for it. If you want to blame something for the fact women want to be thicker now instead of skinny, blame Instagram.

Where did you find this information out?

Defiantly Korea

Both Korea =Pretty privilege Japan= Cute privilege

Korea by a country mile. I don't know if anyone selling plastic surgery packs to become an air hostess in Japan.

USA

Japan literally follows korean beauty standard

no

他の東アジアに比べて多いと思いますよ

japans beauty standard is korean beauty standard the young girls worship korean stars

That's not a beauty standard, that's a health standard. I think people should always strive to be healthy. Beauty fades with age, health is always of value.

Facts!!

It's one and the same if you ask me.

@@mikiohirata9627was thinking the same thing

Without those ”standards” there would hardly be any attitudes, let alone toxic or non-toxic.

The standards are absolutely toxic. Sub 50kg is a child's weight.

外でするべきじゃない理由が有るんですか❓

@@mikiohirata9627 自分の家に呼ぶわけにもいかないし スタジオ借りるにも金かかるから外なのかな

A lot of places have a policy of not allowing filming and photography inside and sometimes right outside the storefront.

@@DJIdntkwtwict 日本人ですか？

Agreed. You end up having issues down the line being obese.

"Normalizing" is just another way of saying we should be evil to people who are different. It's always the same "types" that say this, too. The spoiled, rich, entitled folks whose parents paid for their university fees, cars, helped signed their homes, and take care of all of their children. If someone is unhealthy, that shouldn't be a license to be evil to them. I'm skinny. But I have chronic anemia and have to have a hysterectomy because my organs are too big for my body. Is that healthy? By looking at me, you wouldn't know this if you think skinny means healthy. Only a doctor can tell you the correct BMI and weight for your health, not some rando on the internet. You people say "I'm only saying this because it's unhealthy" to excuse yourselves for being shitty people. If I noticed someone was sick or unhealthy, the last thing I would be is evil to them. I would be kind and encouraging. IF someone has cancer, do you think we shouldn't "normalize" that, either? You're pathetic. I'm quite sure you are not dating and have no friends with this attitude. I'm turned off already.
