Richard; This person is not a she, it is a man, who has been altered by surgey. A person who obviously enjoys the limelight and financial benefits from it, could hardly complain about criticism, nor should her "fan club" here on JT.

SushSake3 and Taka313; You are both reduced to silly remarks, as you still pin your hope on a loser.
Palin is better than both Dems, she is a true patrtiot, not scared of responding to difficult foreign issues.

First Burger KIng does not have the veggie alternatives, now Starbucks.
If their is no alternative and no debate about veggie foods, people will eat meat, especially in Japan, where one does not question one does.
The Japanese menus these chains like Starbucks introduce , are always fat laden heart clogging , processed muck!!

serendipity- You rpoint about phones setting offbombs is good. However this thread is the kind taht i find typical of people in Japan.
Let`s moan and whine about mobile phone etiquette, while the country is in financial chaos, violence increases weekly , and pensioners die of malnutrition.
Japanese and expats, get your priorities right, why do foreigners turn so petty re rules and etiquette when they have been in Japan for a while.
I can hera thet song "i think i
m turning Japanese" in my head. So waht if some noisy person is shouti9ng on their phone, ask them to be quiet, its no big deal.Posted in: What's your stance on the use of cell phones aboard commercial flights?

timeon; Why don`t you join them with their relaxing boozing whil feeding their cats.
Don
t you wonder where the mony comes from to do that? They dont beg, because Japanese are the most tight, uncharitable people i have ever met, and i`ve travelled extensively.Posted in: There are 'rich' homeless and 'poor' homeless

VOR; The fact is that in Japan this person is famous for having a sex change, ridiculous. People ridicule me often for my religous beliefs, and call them a fairy tale and myth, like a poster above did.
I don
t mind i believe in free speech, and i dont believe in forcing anyone to do anything.I am just giving my opinion, that i feel this surgery is wrong. I think this guy made a grave mistake.

lipscombe; I don`t tell anyone how to live their life,that is up to them. I give my opinion,and in this case changer gender is against my beliefs.
I wish people would not do this operation, but i amnot trying to force thm not to. I think they need re eduction and therapy.Many of these people start taking hormone sof the opposite sex when teens, thir bodies are changing, they may be confused, and can`t make the correct choice for themselves.
I do not believe sex chnged people hould become famous because of an op.

VOR; I have no bone to pick with gay people. The bible (new testament), does not condemn homosexuality.
In fact a close friend of mine died of aids. He had to keep his sexuality a secret until near his death, as he would have been ostracised by the community.
Tsubaki changed her gender, that is my problem. God didn`t make him male , so he could be made female and in other cases vice versa.
If this is a big problms therapy should be readily available, to help people through their mental crisis.

VOR; Sir, i am sorry but i must disagree with you regarding morals.
In Japan most gays are hiding the fact. Many are stuck in false marriages, to please their families expectations.
Gays are considered easy fodder to mock, just like foreigners, pick on the weakest, thay bhave very low morals.
Also check how many abortions are carried out yearly in Japan, and also the lack of concern.
Tsubaki would be a noone without having this operation. Now he is wealthy. I believe his choice to change sex, may have been maxde for his financial benefit.

This mag is talking BS. I saw so many homeless in Osaka, collecting cardboard or cans for a few hundred Yen a day.
I used to buy a few of the guys Mcd`s when i went to my weekly trips to Namba and Ebisushu. They were desperate to doi better, but all they got from the authotities was a crappy deal. They made their shelters , and were forced to move, threatened with arrest and treated like scum.
It wqs very sad, and these peoples suffering should not be glamourised to sell a few copies of a dumbass mag.

VOR; I don`t say they must go to the pits of hell or similar. I just believe Tsubaki and others who do this operation are doing something morally wrong.
I like to follow the rules laid down in the New Testament. These brules also say,not to use violence and not to discriminate, so i don`t.
I think these people need mental help, and can be cured.Becoming another sex, means most people can tell,and leads to more prejudice and bullying. I know in my town , someone would have avery bad time, some are very extreme in their beliefs, an dmay even harm someone like this.
I wish these things didn`t have to happen. carash posted a link, maybe have a look, i am not saying i agree with it, just that it is interesting and enlightens one somewhat.
I don`t like the fact that a transexual is famous just for that reason, same as for gays, and in Japan, straight man pretending to be gay. That is insulting to gays, and stereotyping i think.

tkoind2; The poor response last time, was due to the emergency services and their incompetence. The president was very concerned for the people hit by Katrina, he was even praying for them daily.
Lessons have been learnt, and the calamity of the last hurricane will not reoccur.

VOR; My points are not specifically about gay folk, it is about Tsubaki and others like her, who change their gender, so they have a different body than the one chosen for them.
I do not understand why a transexual would promote a movie, unless it was about transexuals.

carash: Thanks for the link. I will take a look and reply to your post shortly.
Just one thing, is there any reason why 50% transsexuals without treatment commit suicide, is it depression?

This "Celebrity" is a sign of things that are wrong with society. Allowing a talentless person who changes sex to promote a film is morally wrong. Kids seeing this Tsubaki could be confused and upset.
A terrible role model for decent clean cut young folk.
