A bit like the english edition of the operator manual for Soviet Typhoon Class boomer subs...

With less chances to have real world use...

More comments from the peanut gallery - shocker.

Guys - you are not the target audience. I was wondering if Take was still with us.

This was a public service announcement.

I'm not trying to be a smartass here but the average Jman doesn't understand or aware of terms such as 'happy, healthy relationships' and the few how do don't really need the book.
I guess the target customers are desperate Jmen who dream of big tits.

Many would argue that this is not limited to J-Men.

Truer words were never spoken...

GG, you have no idea how many Japanese have asked me to introduce them to a sexy kinpatsu neeechan with big tits. The one J-guy I knew who married one was back to banging J-lemurs within a year or so. (but one of them held it over his head and got promoted to manager....best not to bang your coworkers eh?)

[matsuki]

hahaha, indeed...but the guys with that issue are the least likely to actually read that book.

[GomiGirl]

They wanted introductions as they didn't know how to make the first move themselves.

There is also just the novelty factor of fucking/dating a gaijin too. It works both ways but most of the guys are just too shy to make it happen. In my dating days I found this to be very true. I dated quite a few J-guys but most of them really didn't know how to make the first move.

Fortunately I was never that shy.
Or sober

Oh how life changes.

Yep yep...or you get the overly confident J-guys that expect to be able to manhandle you from first glance (and expect you to like it) That or just really drunk and go the caveman route of trying to grab the girl and drag her away. Only real fights I've had here have been with these types.

Again, from my personal experience this is not limited to J-guys.

Touche...though I would argue the lack of social skills is still a bigger issue here than most places.

Sorry to notice that your book for a specific audience is written in a language known to be barely spoken by said audience. But hey... sometimes i wish the microwave manual was written in latin, so there would be reasons for it to be so approximative.

For the peanut remark, don't feel obliged to join cst asshat's rowboat, the asylum is getting full, next patients will have to wait in the zoo instead...

Pover's kind of an old hand in Japan, so I guess she'd know better than most.

What is she famous for?

[GomiGirl]

Hey Colligny - I didn't write this book - am just sharing information. I have no idea what else you are talking about. Did you have some "special sauce" on your cheeseburger today?

Pover's kind of an old hand in Japan, so I guess she'd know better than most.

Yes - she is awesome. Have personally known her for more than 10 years. Saw her the other day. She is now up in Tohoku again building playgrounds and helping locals on a grass roots level.

Yes, aggressive drunk manhandling of women is soooo typical of the Japanese bar scene. Men here aren't gentleman like all the 'roid raging douches in place like the Jersey Shore and Scottsdale, Arizona.

She was (still is?) the editor of Being A Broad, a life/work-in-Japan guide aimed at women. She was in charge of it when I met her 15 years ago, and I have no idea how long she'd been in Japan by that point.

GG, I would like to say that your new avatar is kick ass...

So does hubby take those pictures of you or does someone else do it?

[Coligny]

Building playgrounds on a radioactive wasteland, is a crime... not a help...

She is way up past Fukushima in an area that was completely wiped out by water - not radioactive. She is doing her best to help people get their lives back, get back to a sustainable lifestyle and rebuild homes and communities.

At least she is giving it a go - what are you doing?

[yanpa]

Tohoku != Fukushima exclusion zone. Just sayin', like.

Here is some information about her and her background:

http://www.carolinepover.info/

She now spends half of the year in Japan and the other half in the UK. She speaks, raises money and awareness for Tsunami affected communities.

Her next project is to bring families who can't afford to travel from the area down to Tokyo for a homestay and trip to Disneyland.

She has also run projects to get fishing suits so that women can get back to work. It is Kombu harvesting season now and this is the first season since the tsunami so there might actually be some new income flowing into the region.

Oh you are sweet - sadly those are not my pegs. I wish though.

She really does sound like an amazing woman. From the info on her site I'd guess she's a bit overextended, but it seems that she thrives on that sort of lifestyle. If she spends time in Tohoku perhaps our paths will cross one day. I'll keep the name in mind.

Right on! But what on earth drove her to write a book like that?

She had started writing it years ago and she was in Saipan on a writing sabattical when the earthquake hit. So she shelved it for a while.

She has written a bunch of stuff about relationships etc from her first "Being a Broad" mags and then books. I think it then grew into an advice column for J-women called "Ask Caroline" in Japanese and then this one for J-men was the next one.

In the magazine she always had a column about finding love and relationships in Japan. I guess trying to debunk the myth that FG chicks in Japan are desperate and dateless. There are so many FG girls married (happily) to J-men. I think the stats on the divorce rate are much lower than for FG Guys with J-girls actually. But as they are not as visible as the charisma guys so for the most part it goes un-noticed. I have about a dozen or so girlfriends who are married to J-guys. For the most part they are all happy and thriving. About half of the FG guys I know who married J-girls have been divorced. Not statistically relevant - just an anecdote.

I guess in your lemur-filled world, you miss out on this whole segment on the FG community. I am involved in a few women's groups so I get to see it all first hand.

Yep - that too.
