Japanese Wedding CoupleI found this article through Japansoc, and I have to say it is one of the best reads on the subject. Thank you supacat..

Here is a small exerpt

“Sex in the west can be spontaneous, but sex in Japan isn’t, or at least, not in the same way. In Japan, you can’t get in the front door and immediately start stripping each other’s clothes off in the hallway. Well, you can, and your Japanese partner will probably acquiesce because they are Japanese, but deep down they will be hideously uncomfortable and thinking, “Sex? But I’m not mentally prepared! I haven’t done my kokoro no junbi! And she hasn’t had a shower! And I haven’t had a shower! This is kind of gross!”

Please head over to read the full article, you won’t be disappointed…..

I would also be keen to hear your impressions Evil Woobie…

hey paul. ^^ haha. This deserves a blog post but I’ll post my thoughts here. Sex and how good it is for people really depends on culture and the traditions they grew up in. Like in your post, the Japanese culture has a different way of approaching lovemaking.

Here in the Philippines, the iconic fictional character Maria Clara is every man’s ideal because she represents the girl that Filipinos really dig: demure, shy, submissive, eager to serve, and with just a bit of mischievousness so that the guy won’t feel threatened or unmanned in any way.

In the west, I think it’s “AG” - anything goes? :D Well, in some cultures, it doesn’t work that way. I loved reading Memoirs of a Geisha and the Kama Sutra. Those really reflect the sensuality of Asians and the artistic approach to sex.

Sex is an art. ^^

It is a great read Paul and one i found accurate with my own experiences here. Reading the comments on her original article the same crowd comes out again though stating “generalised innacurate statements” blah blah blah … i don’t see how people can say this when it’s obvious that she’s speaking from experience … does my head in.

Yeah, I agree Neil…she is talking from very personal experience, so how anybody has the gall to tell her it’s wrong is a F-N tool, blogging is about personal experience, not please the FW’ts out there. If you dont agree then piss off and read mainstream news and leave the people with life experience to say what they want…

@evilwoobie, for me its more than an art, its a way of life…..


Evil Woobie on March 28th, 2008 at 2:14 am #

Well, it is that, too. :)

A lot of my students have several boyfriends and they are very direct about what they want. Some join my School just for the thrill of “bedding” an American.

This of course is just my personal experience.

@Chris
Maybe it’s common among Asians to regard the white man’s looks as the standard for handsome.
