@mikeknight42 :: i'm confused by your comment a bit..

[ChocolateyChocobo13]

is it true that the japanese aren't too fond of foreigners?

[shotamerican]

@ChocolateyChocobo13 :: unfortunately there are poopy heads no matter where in the world you go, but overall i did not feel i was being treated wrongly. i would actually live there for the rest of my life if i didn't have to work there, mwahaha!

Let them make jokes about America; I love it here.

@shotamerican All I tried to say was that America deals with so many more cultures than Japan (and therefore is posed to accept that much more.) I don't dislike Japanese culture for its unique creations, but instead for its egotism and conformity. In My Opinion, Japan is a necessary inclusion to understanding the world but does not create an ideal circumstance for a comprehensive universal understanding of humanity. [Although it is a necessary part of the sample based on its current population]

I have also noticed that in America artists are less appreciated. In Japan artists are more respected for their art.

@shotamerican sorry..no..i was not being sarcastic..i saw that you were american,i was hoping a japanese woman would make a comment here,,that is what i meant..

thanks..i will ask hirokochannel

[shotamerican]

@susieruthie :: i'm not japanese. or was that sarcastic? try asking hirokochannel

[susieruthie]

@shotamerican yeah..that was what i was hoping for..a japanese woman comment

[shotamerican]

@susieruthie :: well, it's best to ask a japanese woman about this. cause whatever i think is only from my american standards and my american point of view. i don't know if 'oppression' was what i felt while living there, but i did feel a strong need to fit the character stereotype that everyone decided for me according to my appearance. for example, they preferred i spoke 'softly' instead of 'tomboyish' (my real persona)
