People should weigh up the pros and cons for working or seeing a woman.
To use women in the way the last poster says, will end in a lonely old age, fully deserved i might add.

sarge; Great post. There are no doubt different rules for locals and foreigners. Japan has over strict rules regarding narcotics, in almost all other first world country he would get a slap on the wrist.

I flew from Frankfurt to Osaka recently in economy. I am average height and 75KG, not so big at all. Yet i was cramped, my legs had no room, and there was no room to rest my elbows. Plus the airfair price had almost tripled from 2 years before.
Obese people would probably need 3 seats if they took the plane i was on. Hee Hee.

McCain can be trusted to pick a patriotic VP, the same type of guy as himself.
Obama? Well, we all know his choice will be style over substance, such a shallow man.
McCain well on the road to victory.

While i was recently in the UK, most phones were Nokia, LG, Samsung or Motorola.
I saw a couple of Sonyericcson`s in stores, but that was about it.
Japanese phones don`t seem to sell well outside Japan.

I beleive it is just an excuse by the airlines to make more money from their passengers. They find more and more reasons every year to add on costs. It is a disgrace, especially when most airline staff are kinda unpleasant folks.

PrfoudKoreanGuy;
It is true buddy. Teachers instigate and condone a lot of bullying in Japanese schools. The Japanese side of my family has experienced it first hand. Bullying is accepted behaivour in Japan, thus it is condoned.

You should support your home country indeed. You have a choice, be a patriot or a pinhead. I support US and the softball team all the way. There are always a few bad apples from every country. Way to go USA!!

roomtemperature; Anyone who does not support their country 100% is a pinhead!! The US team deserves huge praise from the world for its modesty and good sportsmanship.

roomtemperature; Why you so upset about the US successes?
I mentioned drugs, because all Americans can be proud that their team is clean.Us lost gold but gained silver, and the respect of all decent folk.

You know what i am inferring buddy. The US is proud of all our athletes, who also do not need drugs to be the best.

How about Japanese drug addicts residing in Japan, should your tax money be put to good use putting them into jail where they belong?

I agree with Youdontknow. Japan wants to be recognised internationally, yet has no anti racism laws to protect arrested people like this guy.
Anyone who thinks Japanese should have more rights than foreigners is a racist.

No disrespect to you, but anyone who only calls foreigners gaijins, in the manner of a Japanese right winger is not alright. It is tht type of atitude that allows this wrestler to be treated unfairly, and some fell prejudice is fine, i disagree entirley.
