This man has been in the news here in the US for the past few days. Not headline or mainstream, but still around. Im with Tamarama - it takes great courage to stand up the way he has and go against his culture and his country to admit the truth about what really happened. Can ANYONE now deny the truth?? He has singlehandedly cleared up this controversy. The next question now is whether right wingers choose to disregard him as they have disregarded the voices of the women themselves.

Maybe not you but he speaks for many, including me, my family, my friends, and my home community of Royal Wootton Bassett. I am not proud of the killing that is an inevitable part of war. But I am proud of the GOOD work the British army does that never hits the news - building roads, repairing bridges both physical and metaphorical, de-mining land, building schools, protecting medical personnel, training local police and countless other good work.
@Shoryuken - I am SO sorry. Please stay safe and try to avoid those thugs. They are no better than the nutjobs spewing extremism. Just know that the vast majority ot Brits with any intellect "get" it. They know there are muslims and muslims, immigrants and immigrants.
@Probie - then you served alongside my Dad, God rest his soul. God bless you.

Poor guy. I dont care how bad in bed your spouse may be, or how unable to meet your needs - you work it out or you separate. You dont shag other men (or women) and you certainly dont do it in your own bed.
Men who do this to their wives are low, but the women who do it are just as bad.

alimel1969 - true. I also think a big thing in the US that makes it easier to deal with is the size of the houses. You can put the baby down, walk away, and calm down for 10 minutes. In Japan, living in a one room box - there is no escape and people blow their fuse much more easily.
Please note that I am NOT saying that is an excuse though! This guy is a POS and deserves everything he gets. And its not as if he is even young and inexperienced - 39 and already a father of two FFS!

I would like to see Japanese women protected from spousal abuse IF THEY CAN PROVIDE PROOF. Hospital reports, photographs, anything like that in the case of physical abuse would be fine. Emotional abuse - dates, times, diaries, AND witnesses (non-Japanese) to back up the story. All that would also be good.
If they cant provide that - throw out the abuse claim. As for this:
Well, most of the LBPs I have spoken to seem to realise that, and understand that it may be more traumatic for the child. But all they want is ACCESS. Most of them arent even allowed to see or contact their kids, or be a part of their lives at all. If the child has to live in Japan with the Mother, then many of them will settle for unlimited contact and the ability to be a part of their childs life - something not only denied to them at the moment, but in many cases the children are also being brainwashed and poisoned against the LBP. If there is any evidence of that the child SHOULD be removed immediately because in the long run that is far MORE damaging than returning them to the LBP in my humble opinion.

This has been awful. Heartbreaking scenes of S&R offices picking through the rubble of the school and how those parents can stay calm and behind the lines I do not know - I think I would be screaming and tearing at the debris with my bare hands. Many lucky escapes and sadly many devastated families tonight. We live a long way from Tornado Alley (forest fires are our big issue) but Mother nature can be a bitch when she decides to vent her fury and sadly this time the people of Oklahoma have copped it. :(

Clearly the idea of folding a stroller has come from someone who has never pushed one in their life. Try taking a baby out, folding a stroller, and taking that, the baby AND his toddler brother safely on to a crowded rush hour train. I sympathise with people annoyed by strollers but unfortunately they are a necessity for safety as much as anything else. Are we to ban wheelchairs on the trains next? Of course not - disabled passengers have just as much right to travel as able-bodied passengers. So why dont children have those same rights?

Good luck with that being a foreigner. Ask anyone who has ever stepped in to protect a woman being beaten up and had the woman testify that you started it and attacked her assailant when the police turn up.

Only in Japan. Yes, people take cars out for "test drives" in other countries and thieve them, but how many of them do it to go and visit their Granny?!

@Joshua - nice ideas but have you ever actually lived in Japan? Because if you have for any length of time you would know that perjury - ok lets be honest here - outside BS - is an everyday occurance in Japan. I even had a guy lie blatently to the police once and tell them I had attacked him with my stroller and possibly broken his foot and he needs an ambulance! My BABY was in the stroller at the time, my toddler hanging on to the side of it, and his black patent leather shoes had not a mark on them. He wasnt even limping!
And in case you are wondering - yes, based on that statement they arrested ME along with my children and took us all to the police station! The only reason I was set free was because the CCTV camera in the supermarket proved he had actually kicked my pram in a fit of rage (with my baby inside it) when I had politely asked him not to queue jump!

Yes, ME actually! But I swear it was a total accident!
I was on a jam-packed train and somehow my hand got jammed up against some guys ass. It was uncomfortable but no biggie, I just kept my hand still and hoped he wouldnt even notice, but I told my friend in English (thinking no one would understand) what was happening and we had a bit of a laugh and an eye-roll about the Tokyo trains.
At the next stop loads of people got off, and a woman turned to me and said in flawless English "Why dont you put your bag up on the rack?" I said "Oh, thank you, but actually I am getting off soon and anyway, I cant actually reach it." She gave me a big smile and said "No problem - my husband can do it for you" indicating the guy I had just been "groping"! I was mortified! He then turned and grinned at me too - he also understood every word!
I have never exited a train so fast in my life!

What about Bandai? That`s THE Japanese toy company. I would have thought Namco Bandai would be right up there. Or maybe Sanrio, now Kitty has gone global?

The only thing that disgusts me more than gropers is the women who falsely accuse them. Aside from the fact that it can ruin the falsely-accuseds life, it also makes it an uphill battle for genuine victims to be taken seriously.

The cultural difference is so vast here. I came from a happy home with my Mother, but I couldnt wait to strike out on my own two feet and be independent, even though I slept on an airbed and ate nothing but toast for the first 2 years!
When I came to Japan everyone was horrified that my parents had "let" me move in with my then-boyfriend. I was 29 and I`d left home 11 years before!!! Old enough to make my own decisions!
In my family now - one sister in law quit her job and moved home the minute she discovered she was pregnant and has never moved out. This despite having had a full time good job and always complaining they have no money. To add insult to injury she then moved her husband in, had her son, and now all 3 of them sponge off my parents in law. The other one wasnt happy when the rest of them moved in (she was still at home and single at 36 even though she also had a steady well-paid job - she moved out. Good for her! Except next door to an apartment they own and where she could still come home for meals and everything she needs.
Then there is my cousin. Married just before 30 (thank God!) she then moved into an apartment round the corner from her mothers and spent every waking moment of her time there. Her Mother raised the two kids she had while she worked - which was great - but she never paid her a penny, when she fed, clothed, bathed them - everything. She spent all her time there leaving her husband at their place alone (which by the way was a total pit as she never did any cleaning and her Mother later said she was afraid to let the kids go home because of their allergies and how dirty the place was). This was a major factor in their divorce last year, but now that they are divorced my cousin went out and got her own place - right next door to her Mother! Even though its a 1 1/2 hour commute to work each way.
Just my impression - Japan is a hotbed of co-dependency issues between mothers and their children. Mothers need to feel needed, and children are raised to believe they CANT do anything for themselves, and in their Mother doing everything for them, become lazy to boot and enjoy the pampering when they grow up.
Solution? No idea. Its a bit hard to implement tough love on a child when you havent, ever. And something tells me these little Princes of Mr A will not turn around and thank him in the future.
