Well guys, sitting in my dorm here in Tokyo, I heard a visitor outside asking the manager does a foreinger live in this room? (she looked at the name on my door). Fuck yea I was spotted without even having to go outside. So much for privacy.

She probably wanted to fuck you.

Usually when they talk about privacy they mean keeping personal information and details out of records that anyone could look up. In daily life, however, people will often ask questions of others that would seem very prying to a Westerner.

They ask each other very personal questions as well, not just foreigners. People who don't even know each other besides being neighbors will ask where the other is going as if it's any of their business at all. It happens all the time.

Posts like these make me glad that I have a French last name. I could easily pretend to be from Canada, if I ever go to Japan.

Sounds like someone expects a perfect world handed to them on a platter.

It's more a case of "when in Rome..."

Honestly, if you go to the middle east, don't complain that they talk to you by standing 6 inches from your face. That's the way shit's done there, if you didn't want that happening, you shouldn't have gone there in the first place.

It's more of a "gee, I'm glad I'm not in that crappy country," feeling, personally.

You do realize you only think it's worse because you're used to something different, right? If you were brought up Japanese, you'd be sitting there thinking "I'm glad I'm not in as shitty a country as America where they can't even ask where a neighbor's going for the day."

Honestly, if you think that their way of doing things is worse, it just means you're a narrow-minded impressionable idiot. And I'm being kind with my words here.

So If people at a country all ate shit sandwhiches, you visited because you wanted to for some other reason, does that mean you have to eat the shit sandwhiches too?

I have never once said that what "they" do is worse. I don't judge people by groups, I don't compare Japan to anything else, I even think my country is a lot shittier place, but I can still say that bad things go on here too, I don't have to tolerate EVERYTHING.

Wow, way to take a completely harmless cultural habit and relate it to something not only sickening, but terrible for your health. COMPLETELY the same, obviously, and saying no to one means you MUST say no to the other.

I don't believe I said you had to partake of their habits. I just said that you can't honestly complain about them when you should have known ahead of time that things are not only different, but that you'd probably be a misfit and uncomfortable. You put yourself in that fucking situation, you have no right to bitch about having to "deal with it".

You don't have to eat the shit sandwiches yourself, you just have to accept that other people are eating them around you.

What constitutes a "shit sandwich" to you is not neccesarily for them. I would say you don't have to like it, but to also shut the fuck up about it. Particularly if everyone else is dealing with the same shit and managing to not cry like a bitch.

As >>1326192 and >>1326282, I'd like to say that I wasn't trying to say either one is "better," I was just pointing out the cultural differences.

Being an American myself, I prefer that people don't go around asking each other personal questions out of the blue, but I wouldn't expect
everyone in Japan to do/want the same, because their cultural upbringing is obviously different from mine.

Being a foreigner (not Japanese) in US, I can describe a lot of things that Americans eat in precisely this manner.
