Help me Figure this Out: Japanese Marriage Discrimination

[Big Booger]

[kusai Jijii]

Burakumin?

[Taro Toporific]

[omae mona]

Unless Big Booger has some burakumin blood in him, I don't think that was the secret (remember she said she couldn't marry him).

Hmmm. the only other thing I can think of is that Big Booger is one ugly mother fucker who she 'cant' marry?

[kusai Jijii]

Maybe 'she' is a 'he'...

[Greji]

Maybe 'she' is a 'he'...

That might severely limit the number of kids...

[Osakadave]

My first thought is to go with the buraku or maybe yaks, but that would qulify as ethnic or family history to me. (Maybe not to her...)

Mental illness running in the family would be another guess.

[GomiGirl]

Want me to throw something out there.. Just a theory...

She is making it up to make sure you don't get too attached and to let you know from the get go that this is just for fun. Then you started getting curious and wouldn't let it go and so she had to keep on with it otherwise she would be caught out in a white lie that has now become something bigger than she intended.

Don't turn yourself into a pretzel over it. It is eating you up and given your recent history it is best not to get too invested as it is likely to bite you in the arse again.

The more she keeps it a secret the more you are seeing it as a challenge to be overcome and a competition to be won by you. You are not going to win - the more you ask her the more she will make up shit.

This is just a theory... but the moral of the story - especially your story should be "don't believe everything you hear" - especially from a girl you are sleeping with supposedly casually.

[wuchan]

you need to ask us?


bottom line......


YOU AINT RICH!!!!!

[Takechanpoo]

So I asked her if she could marry me, and she said no.

I honestly think she just dont want to marry you just because of you, not the any other reasons. But as you know, most Japanese women avoid refusing straightforwardly. So she put the fault on her father's feudalism.
That's all.

Human is all alone. Dont mind it.

[Number11]

Could it be the old blood-type thing?

[Midwinter]

She's a dude and her father has been dressing him up like a girl ever since he was 2 years old. Have you been able to confirm otherwise?

[IkemenTommy]

Got the herps?

[james]

my first reaction was "she's bullshitting you cause she is trying to spare your feelings". i think gg and wuchan have both nailed it though.

GomiGirl nails it . . . so to speak.

[Catoneinutica]

No divorced guys?

[Big Booger]

[Iraira]

Think "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" family...she wants you to slowly kill someone with a hammer at Saizeria, then she'll be yours forever with Ma & Pa's blessing.

[hundefar]

What then? Reptilians? Aliens? People from Atlantis? Nazi gold? Rotschilds? 2012? Pyramids? Hollow earth?

[Dragonette]

Gomi Girl etal may have hit it, but it would have been a lot simpler (and more common) just to say "no gaijin allowed".

Since it has been handed down for generations, it's more likely something incredibly dumb, like "because of an ancient tatari, the second daughter of each generation may only marry a man of samurai blood" or "a man who is younger than she is" or something like that.

A lot of J-folk still take fortune tellers very seriously, so it may even have come from some 200-year-old dire uranai.

The BIG question is - since it's a secret, even if you guess right, will she let you know?

I will disagree with the venerable Gomi on this, at least in part. I think the girl is in deed bait casting with the old "Poor little me, I have no freedom to select my own love." I've been in this game before and you gotta admit it works 'cause' it seems to have got your nose open Boog! I would suggest you continue as is and if she doesn't come out with it later, remember the 4F's can always be exercised by license carrying fgs!

[Cortana]

Get her pregnant, see if that changes things. It usually does.

[Ol Dirty Gaijin]

Hung on history, politics, stars, path liar, whatever

Ha!

Anyway, it's probably a no-English-teachers policy. Not even JTE's.

[Yokohammer]

Not that my criteria apply to anyone else, but if some woman I was seeing, for whatever reason, pulled that "I have a terrible secret" shit on me, also for whatever reason, I'd be outa there so fast the dust cloud would cool the earth by several degrees.

I honestly wouldn't want to know. There's far too much "normal" life to take care of and enjoy.

Word. BB needs to drop that bitch like a bad habit. Unless he's just in it for the vag and the vag is good.

SJ, can you say you've had bad vag?

[IkemenTommy]

It sounds to me like BB has bad encounters with the ladies.
