Terminology aside, if you think a woman is merely a material object, doesn't seem to me like you've had a great deal of experience in dealing with them.

I've discovered through my many years of living in Japan, that if you throw away the Western Dominance Attitude and respect the Japanese (at least in their own Country), they'll treat you like family.

And you'll feel much better about yourself as a Man.

You talk about getting J-Chicks? J-Chicks want a Man...a Real Man...a Hard Working Respectable Man.

Not some Cheap Ass Materialistic Walking Harmone on 2 Legs.


Japanese will never treat you like family. And all J-Birds want is a henpecked salary man, or geeky Westerner who'll wait on them hand and foot. Get paid, get laid, and get faded.

Or is the economy that dismal right now?


That depends on your lifestyle. No one else can tell you whether or not it's worth it. If you want to live in Japan then it's worth it.

Hey gaijin,

How about opening a restaurant in Japan? They're nuts about Thai and Indian food here. However, there doesn't seem to be many choices for Mexican food.

I made Mexican food at an international festival recently in my town and everyone loved it!

Is this a really really good idea or a horribly terrible idea?
