How conservative the Japanese people really is? And the government?

In the old era, gay relationships were very common and were even praised among the privileged social classes, such as Samurai and monks.

Do you want to have an XXX chat?

They don’t have the value that “guys must be macho.”

They were very similar to the bromance of today but accompanied by sexual intercourse.

Moreover, buff guys are often avoided for their narcissism.

Should I have left it alone and kept quiet? I came out as gay to my adult kids last week. Age 61 married 15 years, divorced for 20. I feel so guilty for ruining their lives by living a lie.

I’ve heard it’s always the male side that is expected to take a move in some countries. It’s not the case in Japan.

I sometimes feel people from the West are obsessed with those “gender” and “sex” things too much. Let’s think about something else sometimes. It’s unhealthy.

Why is the band Nickelback unliked so much?

They don’t have the so-called “couple culture” seen in many Western countries.
