The problem is the floating currency reserve bank system and the non sustaining economy. Around 1996 we were told in the higest education institutions in the world that in 20-25 years time automation and the digital technology meant people would have to work much less and would have probably 3/4 of their awake time for leisure and hobbies. This was a serious prediction at the time but it failed to account for the natural corruption and greed of the minority rich especially those parasite rich who skim the society and do little work. It''s because of them that nothing has changed even though it would be possible to live in a society as described. It's not happening because those who produce valuable items such as farmers, artisans, and skilled people are getting ripped off by parasites middle men and banks that whole part of society that speculates on money, that produces nothing but owns most of the wealth.

Let me add my own experience as a westerner as i have been integrated in some Korean groups and took 3 years of Korean language and I had one long time Japanese girlfriend and one near girlfriend Korean female friend. <After watching the video > Wow your sources are excellent i have barely anything to add. I only want to warn westerners against dating both Japanese or Korean women. We westerners get a wrong impression especially about Japanese women. Due to Japan having no Christian religion like Korea, the moral values like sex in Japan will be very odd and treacherous. Most Japanese women think it's ok for their bg/husband to go to prostitute as long as they pay for service while Westerners women will find this abject and cause for breakup/divorce. Also Japanese women cheat like crazy (and men too). Even when my past relation with ex Jap. gf was going well, one day that she thought i wasn't in town she invited a local burly white mechanic who fixed her car for dinner in her apartment and i walked in by accident ! They were only just starting to eat at the table but not doubt she was planning to get fucked by him. He left, and was actually a decent man that she tricked and was embarrassed when he saw she had a boyfriend. I fucked her instead but that's what you can expect from Japanese women even (especially) the most decent looking ones. They have no morals in the western sense and zero conscience. Also they will not tell if they don't like something and leave in total ignorance. You will feel you never really know her even after years. About Korean women, they're extremely superficial and will date foreign men only on materialistic reasons such as he has a prestigious position or profession. Korean are extremely chauvinistic for a woman to date a foreigner goes against almost all Korean rules. I found it extremely hard to get a Korean gf despite putting 10 times more effort and years into it than with Japanese. I learned Korean 3 years at the university level courses, was a member of an all Korean church group for 3-4 years, courted many of them in the most gentlemanly approach possible, had a few first dates, only one woman had repeat date and we ended up in her apartment one time where i received the most confusing mixed signals from a woman ever. You judge, i still don't know what went in her mind. We got in her apartment she prepared a spaghetti meal for me in her kitchen in exchange for me having cooked for her in a previous date then as i was eating she said, i want to take a shower now and left me there alone eating her meal while she went to shower. At that point we had only flirted once in a previous date (not that day) but it was mostly me, she had not returned those physical gestures of affection like caressing. So there i was, thinking what the heck is she doing, does she wants me to walk in and find her naked in the bathroom under the shower etc or was she just acting extravagant and would have shouted if i walked in the bathroom ? I decided to act as a gentleman and not risk it, but i think it probably was a mistake and that was her odd way to stride to something romantic. She sure did not give me that chance again, and when i got more adventurous in a later date touching and caressing her legs gently she remained jaded and pretended it was not happening. We continued to have this double meaning relation even once i totally confessed to her by messaging that i wanted her and it drove me crazy and she replied she wanted to dated me again. But it never happened as i don't believed her anymore. That's what will happen with a Korean woman, expect level of frustration to be very high. When you think you have made progress, she will act like she just met you. Also she will give you the typical "You didn't ask me to be your girlfriend, i didn't know" even when she already know you badly want her.

Yes very much so, and i quickly found sympathy for her because i am single man and listened to her every word and could feel she was really wise on the matter.

You're right and i am several decades older and have hindsight experience and can tell you, there is nothing cool about have lost virginity and taken many risks with women for your health. I was a virgin too even much longer than your friend. Something many young people don't realize even though they're are getting drilled about it in sexual education class is that doing it is always a heath risk even with condoms. And it's a bigger threat to your life than you think, and you have much less control than you think. The only thing you can be sure, is the more women you sleep with the bigger your risk. I am talking to you as a father to son, knowing it must be told like this. The best possible outcome is to meet the woman you'll love who is a virgin and never sleep with other women. It's best to only get into a relation with women who are that possible future wife. Sleeping around destroys lives.

I confirm your comment with a real life experience with a japanese woman. All i want to say to good guys, watch out, these toxic dangerous Japanese women exist, and they hide well you won't know.

Nobita as a Westerner i have to strongly disagree, in Western eyes this guy has a flawed face crooked mouth and teeth. I was shocked that you call him "extremely attractive" that is definitively a Japanese vs Westerner culture difference. He looks overweight and would not be attractive to the picky western women. In fact he is a bit of a dork looking not a model. But i think his bone structure might be closer to Japanese it's wide with big eyebrow and round face which can explain it. Also his english character would be very annoying to continental Europeans.

I think women have degraded morally with the rise of evil trends like feminism. I can tell how women in 2000 were much better, 1990 even better, and 1980 they were true women.

I would have loved a non-forced matchmaker bringing a wife to me when i was young maybe going through the process a few time to find the right one. I was never a popular young man and knew that from an early age and it never improved. I had to actively search and court women really persistently to get a first decent girlfriend (i never settled for ugly women) . I have seen many unpopular men settling for the least attractive woman, i never accepted that, i have my self respect and pride and have always thought many women under valued me. Everybody has seen couples were both the man and woman are very unattractive and they marry for what ? For sex ? I find those couple suspicious and repulsive, i don't think they should make children. Because of that i highly support a matchmaker system, that would really help people who are not attractive but aren't unattractive. I think that would help women decide more easily. These days women have completely lost their mind with high standards because of movies and medias and they refuse men that are even too good for them.

If she reads this, she is a beautiful woman. I understand her reserve about getting into a relation and she is definitively super Japanese and should date a man of same culture and values i hope she finds a good match to her personality. Her problem about her low self confidence has no reason to exist, as she is delightful. I hope the right man helps her find her confidence. With many if's i could be that man but it's too many if's.

Nabuto you are on the wrong track. All racial discussions are heavily tainted by political dogma brainwash which is not scientific but strongly political were a minority that holds government and media power will impose its totally arbitrarily "rules" about race. This is strongly happening in the West where a very small minority who is in control of currency financial aspects has decided completely politically that they want the dark race (i will use the word dark to actually mean b because this platform is heavily politically biased) to be privileged, and the european race to be prejudiced and defamed. You have to take a huge step back out of that clout of political brainwash pressure if you want to have a sane discussion on that topic based on science and truth, not political dogma. First of all, the concept and definition of race and species is man made. We do see the differences between people of different world regions so we kind of think, right there is something like that. But in fact race and species are not a hard line separation, it is a gradual progressive grey area between the two. During evolution a specie can split into two or more different species by geographical isolation in very different climate of the world. BUT they will still be able to breed together for a long time even as they are already very differentiated. It is a progressive slow continuous split, not a sudden one. The concept of race is a fallacy. It only represents that state where one specie has split over hundred thousands of years (and occasionally remixed partially and then split more). The result is what we call race but some race like the dark race have ad mixture up to 20% of hominids that are very primitive that asians and europeans do not have in their genes. So the way the words specie and race are used by humankind who invented them is a fallacy. Currently different species is considered as "cannot breed together". But this is already proven a fallacy, in the evolution of species branches of evolution would have splits were two new species could breed together for hundred thousands years longer before becoming mutually infertile. Thus race is actually related species. And race is a nonsense word invented for political means. I consider what we call race as separate species of hominids that have very different kind of gen ad mixture from past extinct hominids like different homo erectus. We know Asian and Europeans have neanderthal genes but we also know recently that only the dark race have homo Naledi gene an extremely primitive and ancient primate up to 20% in their gene. Here the political brainwash wants to block that scientific information because it does not suit their political manipulation goals. The point is species of humans is a reality, not race, and Japanese are justified with reality to discriminate against species that have different level of primitive hominid ad mixture in them. This debate must be purely scientific but as soon as you talk the scientific truth you will gets political noise and nonsense by people who have been brainwashed or who have a political agenda such as privileging the dark specie as a shield against the european specie that are being oppressed by a small minority in power. The word racism is probably the most fraught with abuse, reversed, that it is meaning less. Since race itself is nonsense (only species exist even if they can interbreed) then the word racism is also nonsense. The question instead is should we consider the difference between species as important to avoid making mistakes. Yes of course. You wouldn't mix two different species in a zoo, without much caution or not at all and we are animals as well. The same applies ! Refusing to see the scientific reality only leads to problems.

That woman with light purple hair and a christmas tree like make up who think she can adapt to a foreign country in 1 year, will be up for a shock if she tries.

Honestly i wanted to watch her porn while hearing her speak. I couldn't fight the thought. It's crazy how your brain doesn't give you a choice.

Hypocrite Japanese ! You run a mega porn industry and was the porn leader of the world for two decades with the youngest girls and the most extreme porn videos and you expect it did not damage Japanese reputation ? Japanese lack moral values from their lack of religion anchoring. In the west religion anchors the society even non religious people are influenced by it. But let's not just throw words in the air show examples. Already in the 2008 Japan had porn videos onlines of young girls being raped in high definition video in common transportation like buses with the video being full feature long duration with plenty of zoom on the woman intimate parts before, during and after the intercourse. 2nd example in 2009 there were Japanese porn long duration videos featuring middle aged japanese women defecating and then being covered in their feces by a man. Then pissing. This is the image of your country abroad. Hundred millions have seen these Japanese videos what do you expect ? Other countries porn know a limit, Japan does not. In a proper decent society this cannot happen there are limit but in Japan there is no limit to the porn industry size and its practices. It is legitimate for any foreign tourist to imagine this is a partial representation of Japanese women. You can only blame yourself Japanese for your lack of morals and how depraved your young women are. Even this video speakers are full of hypocrisy. They complain about foreigners being customers to these young prostitutes as if it is ok when it's only japanese. I understand the patriotism, i really do. But you cannot expect two level of morality one applicable to foreigners and a more lewd and seditious applying to Japanese only. You lack integrity. As of today even anime and other genre are influenced by Japanese porn and most young Japanese have that porn mentality.

This is quite depressing as she is quite beautiful and guys who have more decent and moral profession have a hard time to find a pretty woman and she marries a pornstar. Her justifications are well thought but cannot completely convince me. As a man, you cannot have an erection if you don't like a woman and you will have wild sexual thoughts about her genitals, butt, legs, face, mouth everything while preparing to bang her and while doing it. I think there is a part of denial in her not seeing that. I guess it's the equivalent of a man being enamored with a prostitute. She will never have him 100% to her, more accurately she is in a polygamous relation where one man has many women, and she is one of them with more rights. In some religions this is tolerated but i bet that if she had to spend a full day with women porn starts who he banged many times on more than one movie, she could not keep up the denial and might fall in despair and jealousy.

You shouldn't ask a subsaharan blackgros that question because its ancestry is voodoo and witchcraft not christianism. They use animal sacrifice and chicken blood and primitive shouting and dancing and use drugs to induce states of agression or delirium. Just look it up about their heritage in their jungle. Also their witchcraft is meant to harm others. Nothing to do with Christianism of Europeans. As for European there is a main distinction between Protestants christians and Catholic Christians. Protestants are an heresy and are considered a cult by some people in the original Catholic church. The protestant are the agressive ones proselytizing and trying to convert people agressively by inducing fear of afterlife. Catholic are more soft and kind they do not use these methods they believe good must be done in this world to get to heaven whereas protestant often believe you only have to become a follower of Jesus then you are saved even if you don't go good in this life. Catholics believe if you do good in this life even you are not a believer you will go to heaven, but protestants think all those who do not worship Jesus go to Hell which is pressurizing for conversion. English speaking countries are predominantly protestants. France, Italiy, Spain, Portugal are the original Catholics.

@yqweqwun7390 I'm single and didn't feel jealous of them, it warmed my heart, i enjoyed seeing that. You must have a horrible heart and bad relation with the other sex to think that singles are jealous.
2
The fact is women can be bitches and act much worse to a man and a man to a woman, except for violent men. Those are bad but most men are better than women when it comes to being accepting in relation and put up with all kind of trash women put them through. In a way the muslim faith has it right to control women, they must be controlled or they will cause harm to men using their sexuality as a weapon. Men cannot do that, because women are not triggered visually by sexual attribute the way men are.

Oh my goodness, the white buy vloggers got it exactly right : "The japanese use that cultural rule as a shitty excuse to a shitty behavior" That is exactly what i experienced : I find it very annoying that these Japanese women are complaining about white men not using Kokuhaku when in fact they will abuse that rule. It happened to me with a Korean woman who acted like we were gf/bf and i got amorously attached to her and thought it was obvious to everyone we were romantically attached and when i made a move to kiss her she shocked me by saying "what are you doing i am not your gf" which was worse than a punch in the face given she obviously was already acting like my gf in public so it hurt and irritated me a lot when she responded like this. I never heard of this kokuhaku rule back then (even though she was korean ). In any case later when i dated another Asian woman, i didn't fall in the trap again and would not let her capture my romantic interest, i put her on the spot, and asked her if she wanted to be my gf, and made the words clear and articulate. The woman let the question pass through with a ".... mmm.. i don't know...". At least i knew i wouldn't waste more time on her. I bet if i had not asked she would have played that girlfriend role too and abused my emotions too. It seems women love ambiguity and driving men furious with mixed signals. So don't complain about Kokuhaku rules. Men are always clear what they want in love, it's women who are playing games and not acting with integrity !

She is contradicting herself when she says she found that male porn actor interesting then later when she met him she said she was not attracted to him at first. I believe she had a sexual attraction to him maybe even his body. I don't blame her, i had a similar sexual attraction to very pretty porn star who look like they should not be doing that job.
2
As a feedback to Japanese people, Westerners are shocked by the prostitution and promiscuity industry in Japan, even though they like it, in the West such thing is always seen as immoral shameful and not respectful for a decent woman. But in Japan this view seems to be missing even contrary. Japanese don't seem to realize that this makes most foreigner look down on Japanese to allow such depravity and publicize it to the world even though they will be glad to use it.
2
The mixed couple at @16:40 was also street interviewed by Takashi who does street interviews. I am surprised the same couple is on your channel, hahaha. Is Japan that small or are these people seeking those interviews lol.
2
Thanks for sharing your testimony, i can see how that can happen. I think this it's more common that thought when both do not have the same cultural background and the same values and tradition. As when they do even with those unexpected character changes you described a common ground to make it work can still remain. Many older couples have lived that way successfully and quite satisfactorily for decades as functional partners, forget the bedroom side which isn't as important with age anyway. But if the marriage was based on that utopia true love with a good dose of romance in the bedroom then when all that steam eventually looses pressure with the years and you find out who you married and realize you fitted him/her in a mold you invented for yourself in self deception that wasn't who they really were in the first place. I am guessing that is the general story of many failed marriages. Still i see people leaving together and having kids without getting married. What is the downside of this ? Is it that women refuse that because they want that pressure to control the couple life ? Last thing i heard almost all divorce judge are women and they will be strongly biased in favor of the woman, divorce is always a woman rips off the man.
2
This is disgusting, Japanese is an immoral society sinking into depravity. This is destroying their fertility rate as all young japanese masturbate instead of seeking out a real woman and f.. her to make kids and have a family.
2
This is completely unsane, litteraly. She thinks it's ok to go get ........ by men who release all their body fluids on her and hers on them and that she can just say to her husband, "oh don't worry i'm only get .....cked everyday by random guy who really love ....cking me. It's ok". I could not think of anything that would drive a man to despair and major humiliation and insanity than this. She is the worst of woman i can imagine of, in some culture she would be put to capital sentence, litterally, and it would not be completely wrong.
2
Nobita after having seen many of your videos, i have very high respect for you, you are very intelligent , and i would say i am moved by your honesty and general kindness and respect to people and a phenomenal listener which often goes in pair. Your are highly gifted in human relations. People like you are quite rare these days, you would be a great doctor, or counselor or priest or anything that deals with people. You also have a very reassuring and kind voice. I would trust you in confessing anything to you. You are in the right path doing what you are doing.
2
Degenerate woman with no values. The fact that she likes woman says it all.
2
I can respect a whore who has been forced into prostitution by economical necessity and pressure but i cannot respect a whore,like her, who chose porn as a way of life. She is the lowest of society and deserves pity. This woman is a walking vice she dissociates penises from men, she said herself "i really like that penis but i don't want to have a bf relation with that man". This is depravity of the worst level. Her mind is continuously thinking about cocks you can tell from her face. You can always tell these japanese porn actresses by their mouth, they usually have a nervous tic moving their mouths like the normal state is to have a cock in it. Women like her are not a role model but a disaster. She pretends to demand loyalty but she gets fucked by many random men every day. A woman like that cannot ask for loyalty. She is a whore and should be treated as such outside her job.

I think this is a great job you did as a reporter. I do not take the exact same view as given overall in this video. First i think the Japanese legislators and government is responsible for not protecting people against this kind of predatory hiring. It's obvious that this kind of vile vicious industry will not use the truth to convince because they know it wouldn't work, they of course use elaborate well proven pressure tactics and even group pressure and even rape. To be honest even knowing nothing about all this i have been boggled since 2008 onward why almost all asian porn in great quantity was Japanese and most of it very abusive to women. As a foreigner i couldn't understand why the Japanese government who surely had access to all the porn data on the web, did not react to protect Japanese women and it took all the way to 2021 for them to create this special comission on AV. Again i see this a failure of the Japanese government to protect its vulnerable young people. Second, this is a vice industry and there will be women who are of low morals that may not necessarily want to be porn actresses but because of their low morals and the cheating culture of Japan will be easily convinced under light pressure to become whores on screen for money. Then they will later regret and will fall in a vicious circle of pressure. But these women are not entirely innocent, they are after all promiscuous and will enjoy sex for the wrong reasons and probably also to manipulate men. Even among women who are happy to be porn actress i consider them to be bad persons and do not deserve respect. Just like you wouldn't respect thieves or robbers, i think that a porn actress is doing something wrong.
2
This is a great honest and genuine information. I wish i had it in 2007 before i dated an expatriated Japanese woman in Usa who turned out to be everything you are warning about. I had no clue in those years that sex and the sex industry was seen as pretty normal to all Japanese women because of absence of religion in Japan (Shinto buddhism is not a mass religion). Internet did not yet have this kind of educating information. So as a foreigner i thought i was dating a decent, high morals girl, but only found out later she spend her earlier years with the sexual behavior of a whore. Not at all what i was looking for in a partner.
1
Some of these girls deserve an authoritarian and strict dominating Japanese husband that will discipline them and punish their extravagant shamless behavior. Just joking, lol

She is pretty.

You're taking too many episodes and words to get to the heart of the problem. Meshida covered the same subject and got straight to the heart of the problem : Women. Women these days are too picky, and want to fall in love with money, not with men, and japan salaries have not increased for 3 decades. Japanese women don't find wealthy men easily so they don't marry which is wrong. Women should be housewives not career driven. Japan is degenerating due to usa fem influence, just like South Korea.

@kpt002 you know, passenger pigeons were estimated in the Billions (not millions) in the 19th century, they are extinct now. Also birthrate is an exponential curve when it crashes it has drastic effects, no just half the people in some decades 80% old people and 20 young people who still don't reproduce. But i don't loose hope in Japanese ingenuity. I would not be surprised if at some point in the non too distant future women will be forced to have children. Well not forced physically but through propositions they will not be able to refuse , like no tax on salary for women who have a child or other incentives. And if that is not enough, i would not be surprised if the Japanese governenment found a way to force Japanese to have natural sex through an official system where they are only allowed to refuse four out of five men who demand her.

@shadowalkerwho Your thoughts are noble but there are worse than her, at least she targets womanizers bad men who treat women like commodity objects with a price for sex. But there are Japanese women like her who pose as innocent and who target good well intentioned men. I know from experience and they're not what one thinks. They can be university graduate students, even PhDs !! not street hustlers ! When they were 18-22 they behaved like a street rag btch getting penetrated and gang raped and juiced in all kinds of ways countless times by the worse kind of low life men. Sometimes they were treated worse then sex-workers and literally raped a few times. But understand that they put themselves in those situation chronically by letting the worse type of low life men hang out with them offering themselves.. Then at around 25 these women are disgusted by themselves and suddenly are furious and hate men like crazy, when in fact it was all their doing from their bad choices, they got what they deserved but they are in denial. Then they stop all this, and start relearning sexuality except they badly want revenge as they think all men are like the trash they let all over her and inside her. They look no different than most girls there is no way to tell. They are dangerous in more ways than one (if you are intelligent you'll know what i mean). Any boyfriend they will have will have no clue of their past, and won't realize how toxic they are until a lot of harm has been done. They will hide everything as women are experts are hiding their shady past. A lot of Japanese women are like this, so watch out especially don't assume you can tell by look, sometimes it's the best looking and normal looking women.
1
Fool ! this woman is a criminal you need to have your heart broken for the good men she damaged, don't think men are how she says they are, that's how she sees them in her psychotic mind. And these Japanese women like her do worse things than just stealing money.. This is someone ruining lives through other ways that are too sensitive to discuss..

Yeah all stuck millenials say this to themselves to feel better.

No that is a red herring, dating apps have nothing to do with low marriages. It's the change in women's behavior that has lowered rate of mariages. Actually easier access to relations through dating apps can only increase the chance of a good match that leads to mariage. But women have become brainwashed with sex freedom and fem ideas and that sex is just for fun and abortion has only removed responsibilities of engaging in sex. Furthermore fewer women are aspiring to a housewife life which means they don't want mariage. These are the true reason that women no longer seek to get married. They just want to get penetrated for fun and enjoy the ride while earning a salary without responsiblity. Actually women are too picky now because of the media and all the instagram culture showing perfect people. That's the problem, not dating apps. In fact even erotic website as long as it is not porn isn't that bad because for single men who have not been able to get in a relation with a woman over a long time sexual drive can fall to such low level that they no longer chase women but sex website awakens their sexual drive and put them back on the search for a real woman.

It's shocking how some snowflakes or millenials in the replies cannot believe this is a real story because they got stuck up into Steve Job's arse smartphone generation. It's real i can tell. I have experienced a similar fate not 24 yrs ago but 9 years ago. Same thing we got along great got engaged. But i would not say her parents were toxic, they were nice people and we got along fine but the culture and language barrier was big and it probably hit them that they only child would move to a different country where they themselves would not be able to communicate. At the end the family aunt matchmade her urgently to some divorced but local businessman and from what i guessed they put the stress on her to go along with it and i lost her. But yeah those stories are real. I guess the younger generation have nooooo idea of the world before internet.

It's not her parents that ruined it, it's your fellow american soldiers average behavior dis-reputation. But let's put historical backing behind this. In WW2 the army press was telling USa rookie soldiers that the european women were easy and being deployed to Europe for D day was guarranteed to bring many young women craving for sex to every american soldier. This was a dirty lie of course but they believed it. The result following the deployment of US troops in France : 3000 cases of rape by Usa soldiers on civilian women many of the soldier blacks. Some were convicted. Then in Korea same thing. The accomplice Korean government sent Korean prostitutes groups directly in the base. But it went worse american soldiers got a deserved reputation for raping young civilian girls too afraid to say anything in a country utterly destroyed and dirt poor after war. Of course that was decades before 1980 but the bad reputation was already well set and fairly deserved. No doubt Japan experienced it too.

My exact thouights, youtube made me realize some people really have the same thinking patterns even words.

i would love to see her doing the porn. she is hot.

@mayshusakuhanamurasufferli5438 A woman's body is made for all these things you hate. so maybe you hate your own body or you are just frustrated by being treated for the non feminine woman you are. Women evolved to raise children and to cook, not to cover long distance by foot to kill prey, their wide hips are not meant to cover distances but to stay at home and support their husband and provide that banging. Indians would say this is karma, this is what you were made to be.
1
wtf, someday you learn your wife has started to do porn after she was the mom of your kids. How can she even think this is ok ? I would seriously have a problem not condoning a husband that would hurt her for doing this to him.
1
I will be honest, she has that total itch attitude you can tell she ucks icks just from the way she speaks.
1
There are other Japanese women like her around, I've known one exactly like her. They somehow have an irrational hatred of foreign men usually after having been consently gang "stuffed" in their past and finding out playing innocent didn't somehow protect them from being sluts then they turn to devils and take revenge on innocent unsuspecting men, usually who are nice upstanding guys with good moral values and sincere good intentions. I've seen this only in Japanese women and not other Asians. It's even worse than just stealing money, much worse, and criminal but i can't talk about it.

@aoeu256 you sound toxic like her and prob a degen fem.
