It was fun to listen to that guy talk about how he thinks it's fun and cool when foreigners are a bit more outgoing than them, and are willing to talk to Japanese people they don't know about each other's lives, because when I go to Japanese bars and pubs in Tokyo, I do this, and the Japanese in general seem to like this quite a bit. I've met a bunch of nice people, and talked a lot about various things. It's a good opportunity to practice my Japanese anyway, and likewise some of them seem to want to practice English with me, so it's useful and fun for everyone. I'd like to make it clear that I'm not being too forward, pushy or annoying or anything, if people don't want to talk I leave them be. It might very well be the Japanese people I'm talking to that started the conversation sometimes too. Because of how Japanese people are more reserved than many westerners, and because of how important poilteness is in Japan, I think some foreigners are understandably worried about appearing to be too outgoing and/or rude, which is a legitimate concern, but please don't overdo it either, or you'll miss out on so much! Japanese people like/are interested in you precisely BECAUSE you are a bit different from them, and because you can more easily do certain things that they can't do very easily! It's the same the other way around too, after all, right? :-) I recommend foreigners in Japan to have the guts to TALK to people! Even if you've just met them! At least in bars and pubs and such, the Japanese there are usually very happy to talk to you, and will appreciate and enjoy it just as much as you! Just like the guy in the video said. :-)

I lived in Japan for 5 years. I understand what sort of foreign men they like, and to be completely fair, it's not that hard to meet their requirements (compared to your usual woman in the "west"). However, there's a few problems to most "foreign" men and some of them reside in the culture: - Japanese people, especially women, don't like "smelly people". If you're a foreigner, you'll have some issues with this at first because you're either used to living in high humidity places or you're going to suffer A LOT. If you're moving to Japan, best advice anyone can give you is to either take or pre-order some smell-free dehodorant from your own country as those sold in Japan will most likely not work on you, at all, for the first 6-9 months; - Another issue is that beards are usually a no-go there as well. Few can get away with it, sort of, but most of us can't, and most of men can't be bothered shaving every day unless you're already used to doing so. Besides, I don't think men like to see themselves without a beard once they're able to grow one, so there's a hard choice to be made there. Now for the part where their requirements are not that hard to meet, but it's actually tough for a foreign man to adapt to: - Japanese people are not that loyal. The loyalty part they mention they like so much is because it's a major fault on their culture. It's HARD to find a japanese person, male or female, that doesn't cheat; - Their work and general culture makes it difficult to date anyone. Not only do you need to have extensive knowledge of logistics to find an opening in both your schedules, you also have to be mindful that being lovey-dovey in public is a massive no-no. It's easy, but hard at the same time. Japanese culture and "western" culture clash on far too many points to make it easy, but the "standarts" women have are easy for foreign men to accomplish. And the biggest wall a foreign man can face is the cheating part. I couldn't bring myself to date a japanese girl while I lived there because I couldn't be bothered to live with a constant question like "has she cheated on me yet?" on the back of my mind. Quite frankly, all the other issues can be somewhat solved with time spent living there, but the the cheating part alone is just not worth the hassle, especially for those who take relationships, intimacy and trust seriously. In fact, that issue is so big in Japan that women AND men literally expect to be cheated on relationships. If that's not a serious red-flag, I don't know what is.

[@johnarmstrong472]

I lived japan too, and cheating was the last thing I worried about! I think the foreign guys do the cheating, not the Japanese women. I think Japanese women who are attracted to foreign guys are very loyal. If you spoke fluent Japanese and were hanging out with really popular ones, then maybe not. Japanese culture is fairly conservative. I have a beard, but off it comes when I go back to Japan. I'm not stupid.

[@acollins929]

You make some fair points but some I disagree with. I lived there 3 years and dated a different girl every week. And I have a big beard. And I'm bald. And I don't speak Japanese. I workout a lot, don't dress that well (sports clothes mostly) and I'm 6ft tall. I didn't encounter the smelling bad part (actually girls used to snuff me saying they loved my scent) but I did swear profusely during the summer and I hated that 😅 About Japanese girls not cheating... They do. As far as I'm aware non were cheating on me but I did sleep with a teacher who was 25 and had a Japanese bf who lived 2hours drive away and she never mentioned him while we were together. A year later they got married and had a baby. He still doesn't know I banged his girl 😅

A good way to win a heart of a German girl is making her lough. Girls get comfortable with guys who are funny. Faithfulness and reliability are great points, too. Not being to chubby but being into sports and therefore, have well-trained looks helps also. And behaving like the typical gentleman is also going to make you popular.

I love your channel and it led me to do more research on Japanese culture but havnt seen much or anything relating to Spanish, Hispanic or Latin culture or spanish men, or spanish music or caribean culture. Seems like mostly just talk about white or Europeans. If you can Cathy Cat try to do more videos about what they think about Latin culture or music. Im from NYC and my family is originally from Dominican Republic 🇩🇴. ✌🏽 ありがとう

[@marcblair3781]

only subcultures know about hispanic, latin or caribbean culture. In Osaka and Tokyo they have salsa clubs and bars, reggae lounges and such. In other cities there aren't as many. I'm in Nagoya and there is a Latin festival and a Jamaica festival. There are many food vendors and bar/restaurant owners that come out to these events, so it's the best place to find out about local businesses that represent those cultures. If you go there, you'll find the Japanese ppl that are into those cultures and have probably traveled to those countries. There are tons of Brazilian places here cuz of the Japanese diaspora there.

[@30803080308030803081]

Those first two girls had some big misconceptions about “foreign” men. First, what is “foreign”? There are 196 countries in the world, and every part of the world has a unique culture. And, most Western men are not how those girls think. A man who does all the chores while his wife does none is usually considered kind of a loser. I know marriages like that, and they are sad. The wife thinks, “Oh, he’s so good to me, because he loves me.” But, she’s not even attracted to him, and she cheats on him. Anyway, I’ve heard a lot of the same misconceptions from Chinese women, because I live in China. It looks like some Japanese women have gotten the same ideas. Whenever a Chinese women tells me something about what she thinks foreign men are like, I have to quickly correct her.

As a french man who was educated to "galanterie/galantery" it's funny to see that it is criticized in our own country by... neo-feminists 😅

[@irokosalei5133]

Because galanterie is stupid. Helping people based on their gender is hypocrite and is an overused thing for starving guys who think they're being owed something in return, which is very embarassing socially for women. In Japan they're not used to that type of behaviour and are far more habituated to having their "private space" respected so it doesn't come off as such. Btw there's more gender equality in France than Japan, like the first girl lamented.

[@NathanKt]

@@irokosalei5133 You're mistaken, when you're "using" galanterie, you don't expect anything in return, that's the point. There might be more gender equality in France but it's impossible for a girl to walk in the streets of Paris wearing a skirt and heels without being catcalled : it's not real equality if girls get harassed.

[@bijanthegr91]

This is why I'm drawn to Japanese women, because they appreciate Gentlemen qualities, like chivalry, kindness, respect, and loyalty. Even fantasize about my marriage to a Japanese gal, that she and I raise the childern together. To be the role models of what kind of people they should be. That and other romantic scenarios, like lifting her into my arms and telling her how much she means to me, and that we shall go to our home, together. You know, mushy stuff like that, which I secretly crave. Major plus on the snuggling in bed, and me being too lazy to get up and she's trying to pull me out of bed lol Also, Sass, though lesser men don't like it when they get sassed in private (not in public, because hey, you got to be the man in the relationship and make good decisions), but I love it. Mostly because to me, that's couples bantering and finding renew love when we know we're the only people who can stand each other. In my opinion, yeah, it's good to love the best in someone, but it's way more special if you can love the worst in someone.

I think it’s really less about nationality than it is about appearance. Doesn’t matter what country you’re from - if you’re good looking women will notice and be attracted. If you’re fat and bald you’re an underdog, if you’re fit and attractive, you’re in. However, in Asian countries dark skin is seen as the labor class and not as desirable which is why they try very hard to not get tan.
