Sigh... yes... because all American women are evil and Asian women are inherently loving, giving, and submissive.

You know it! ;-)

Well there we go folks. The "fit has hit the shan". You could always count on Japanese women to be good housewives, but NO - not anymore. The Japanese women prefer to live "liberated" lives now. I think this is one of the Biblical signs that the Apocalypse is near.

Considering the attitudes of many American women an Asian wife may be preferable.

Well, if the Asian women are adopting Western-style attitudes, what's the point?

Mixed marriages in Japan

Japanese men marry: Chinese 10,242 Filipinos 7,794 Koreans 2,235 Americans 156 British 65

Japanese women marry: Koreans 5,318 Americans 1,529 Chinese 890 British 334 Filipinos 117

Source: 2003 Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare

Those are the gross figures. We're talking less that 29,000 mixed marriages a year in a country of 126,550,000. This is not exactly a tsunami of cultural change...

"They treat you like equals, and they don't hesitate to express mutual feelings of respect - I think Western men are more adept [at such things] than Japanese men," says the 36-year-old Ms. Mizuguchi, who works at a top trading firm. "They don't act like women are maids - I think they view women as individuals."

Not this one. I'm no sucker.

If they don't adopt Western-style feminist ingratitude, they're a definite trade-up. LOL

I'm convinced that much of the hatred of the west from many societies is based on how we treat our women and the fear that they have that exactly this phenomenon will increase.

Muslims hate us because of it.

I am going to Japan for 2 weeks of speaking engagements in February. All of my Japanese friends (all men from age 40 to 65) have warned me that young Japanese women will throw themselves at me because there really is a shortage of men willing to marry. I thought they were joking, but they were very serious and I have heard the same thing from over a dozen people so far.
