I wonder if that Japanese woman realizes that now everyone assumes she is part of the "club".

Japan Today, now is your chance to increase readership 10,000% by hiring the genius at Mainichi who used to translate Wai Wai and starting a new column. Best articles I ever read.
Posted in: What do you think of the Mainichi's decision to cease publishing its WaiWai tabloid tidbits section on its English online site following complaints that it portrays Japanese society in a negative light to the world?

My observation is that large bottomed Western women have great success in South America.
Posted in: Foreign women in Japan sometimes remark how hard it is to get a date with foreign men. What are your views on this?

Damn tough call. Lots of good comments. Randomly being punched sucks, but I think you were the man in avoiding escalating. Imagine that A-hole who punched you must have a pretty crappy life and that may be your consolation. Anyways, strong guys don't have to show off like that. I recommend you start lifting and take up a martial art, then when you are punched you can say is that all you have pussy?

In a country with so many rules and regulations about every conceivable thing, how about a limit on the number of humans that can be mashed into a train car and if exceeded a red light would go on and the train would not move until some people got off. No wonder it is so hard to raise children here.

In addition, taking complaints to the police department seems counterproductive as well and on this point I can't agree with Debito on always trying to argue to the police. Rather if you feel your rights were violated, consider going to the local bar association and speaking to a lawyer when this happens, see http://www.toben.or.jp/english/english_legal.html; or the Japan Civil Liberties Union http://jclu.org/index_e.shtml.

Walking up to persons based on their "appearance" and demanding to see their personal identification in the form of a passport, which they may or may not have on them if they reside in Japan, with no external appearance of authority to boot, IS moronic. As are many things in this country.

Well Everton2 your advice is worth its weight in toilet paper. I would be quite surprised and suspicious if two morons ran up to me screaming "passport".
