    *Yes, I think that to be called a Gaijin is wrong and racist. The correct term is Gai kokujin. Japanese do not understand how rude they can be when addressing foreigners as gaijin and if they do so knowing well what they are saying, they do it with no respect…

    blind people manage to transverse whole parts of the city and even the country all by themselves. I think they can orientate themselves around a poxy little gym without going crazy and knocking someone doing free weights over.

    Imagine the situation, you are standing front off the mirror, large weight…

    1) If he ordered a killing while reading the Koran, would that make the body Hal'al?

    2) Today if a man walks into a cave and hears voices you are generally considered to be hallucinating. 1200 years ago you could set up your own religion on the basis of it…

    So, a mother's abduction of her own child is on the same footing with a similar action carried out by a total stranger? If this is not a donkey's reasoning I don't know what it is then!

    Who said it was the mother's abduction? Japanese men can do it too.…

    I learnt to read with Crayon Shin-chan. The manga were superb (and the earlier books are the better IMO). The humour is grown up and sometimes "adult" and all kanji have furigana to help a struggling gaijin.

    *Guys, guys, guys. I think the stereotyping here is going a little too far don't you think ? I am married to a Japanese woman and I am attracted to Asian girls. However, I can think of scores of Japanese ladies who you would not want a serious relationship with…

    Surely the mother would have dialled 119 immediately and an ambulance would have come to take the child straight to a casualty unit? Instead the father had time to go home and then take the boy to hospital? Unless the father worked only a stone's throw away from the apartment,…
