Over on JapanProbe the readers seem to be evenly split on this issue. Even Ishihara has his fans it seems!

Been living in Tokyo for 6 years and none of these 'typhoons' has ever been stronger than a slightly worse than average winter's day in London.

Of course, I realise it's different in other parts of the country.

Without a doubt women discriminate more. It's simple biology. As KallyPygous implies, the male instinct is to impregnate as many females as possible; the female instinct is to be impregnated by an alpha male.

However, I think women often discriminate unwisely, especially in the west. Being a 'hunk' seems to…

You seem to have something against Islam? No?

There's nothing wrong with having a problem with Islam. It is, after all, an ideology, not a race. And there's nothing wrong with disagreeing with an ideology.

I respect that different people have different opinion

I hope so.

Also, if the naive Japanese keeps being overly hospitable, it's a safe bet to assume you'll start seeing mosques appear in Japan and that is definitely NOT RIGHT.

There's a huge mosque at the bottom of my road in Uehara. It's been there for years. Nothing instrinsically wrong with that…

Nessie, just wanted to say that laws differ from country to country, from culture to culture and from religion to religion. People should stop comparing.

God, how I hate this sort of argument. It's just an excuse for culture X to do exactly what it wants without fear of recourse…

Because the treaty is at odds with Japanese citizenship law and aspects of Japanese family law concerning child custody

Careful isthistheend, unagidon et al... Criticising religion will soon be an internation crime due to a resolution that's just been passed by the UN (and sponsored by the USA.) Soon, saying 'Jesus freaks' might land you in court. Just another present from the PC facists.

Glad to see that the 2 countries with the worst immigration processes (fingerprinting)didnt get it.

And that the country that had the best immigration policy (ie fingerprinting nobody except US citizens in reprisal) did get it!

(Shame the Brazlilain policy didn't extend to Japanese visitors.)
