Missionaries and other Americans who spend time in Japan come back and regale me with tales on how horrible Japanese men are. From the open reading of violent and gory pornography, to the truly horrible way they treat women, the stories always end up saying that women are not marrying or having children because finding a worthwhile man is incredibly difficult.
Maybe these women just need someone to actually care about them, and fake “care” is better than “no” care?
I was telling my daughter about the sex robots that Japan is coming out with. “Yeah - they are into a lot of goofy stuff like that - the guys especially are really weird there - introverts and stuff from what I can tell. And rather than be with a real woman they get into all sorts of crazy sex stuff.”
“LaLaLA - Dad - I’m not listening!!”
I think that Japan is still pretty un-reached when it comes to Christianity. I think I read where even just having 5 to 10% Christians in a society really helps to balance out the whole place.
And yes - that includes having a right relationship with the opposite sex. Like being able to share emotions, and sex!
Just googled it - about 1% of the Japanese population is Christian. A family from our church has been over there a long time as missionaries. The dad was saying that the whites are looked down upon, and so it is hard to give them the Good News.
He told the story of his young son going to the public schools for years now and making friends. One time some kid called the son a derogratory name, but another Japanese kid stood up for him. “He’s my friend, he’s not a *&%$#@.” The dad said that was a real turning point after many years.
That’s got to be tough on those kids, but they have spoken in church too when they come back to visit, and seem to get the whole thing and are behind it.
Oh - one last thing. I’m pretty sure it is Japan where the gal got a bunch of other gals together and they have a “bed warming” business. They come and get into your bed and warm it up for you for 20 minutes or so before you hop in. (After they climb out of bed.) But the 20 minutes is also spent talking while you wait. A very high demand.
oops - not Japan - Russia!
