Guy dating a Japanese girl...

[ChipWrecked]

A longtime bro was in the Navy back when Subic Bay naval base was still open. He told me about the huge cultural difference between the 'traditional' village Filipinos and those around the base (whores trying to make a living). While lots of Americans loved the PI and went native, he got to where he didn't even leave the ship there.

""Traditional Family"

Mom+Father=Daughter=No Sex before Marriage=Listens to Parents=Stays at home until she is married."


Thats a specific element of a really, really vague term. And yes, I could provide you with a host of data that would dispute that--anthropological data collected across the archipelago, primarily, as my interests in "Asia" are focused in SEA and rarely enroach on the mainland.

I just think its odd that someone would claim one value system or one culture that somehow applies to the MULTIPLE cultures and ethnicities living within the territorial boundaries of contemporary Uzbekistan, Burma/Myanmar and say, Indonesia.

I'm really, really curious how the "culture" is similar. The many years I have spent living in "Asia" would suggest anything but.

Men who rape boys are not straight. Do you mean men who normally sleep with women but occasionally rape boys? Because there is nothing straight about that.

Come on, this is OOT. No one is thinking/speaking about Indonesia or Uzbekistan when they say Asia. They are talking about japan, china, korea, etc.

yeah, you are correct there are 100 million tribes and different peoples and cultures in asia.

I've conquered Japan. It was pretty easy. She was kinda drunk at a party. I think the issue is he's dating a prude and not that she's Japanese.

There's something like 60+ ethnicities in China alone, and southern mind is sooo different to north mind it's uncanny. But this girl thing is pretty true throughout.
