Having spent a lot of time in Japan I must differ with your assessment of their culture. They, like us, do have two distinct cultures: The Ballsy Class and the Castratti. The Ballsy Class builds and breaks things, and the Castratti bitch about the Ballsy Class. You will find military men, construction workers, entreprenuers, and CEO's in the Ballsy Class. In the Castratti class resides the politicians, most government functionaries, leftists, manfeminists, and 99.9% of college professors. You will find this social structure in all but the most primitive societies, where they are all in the Ballsy Class out of necessity, which indicates that the Castratti are made possible by the hard work and bravery of the Ballsy Class.
