A friend of mine who went to Japan on the JET program once told me about a coworker of his and a scheme he would use to get Japanese women into love hotels.

He would go into clubs in Roppongi (which is where you should probably go if you want to pick up women), find 'available' Japanese women, fall to his knees in front of them and scream at the top of his lungs that he was sorry for Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It got him women over there for some reason.

Apparently this guy also said America would one day conquer Japan with their larger cocks. I don't even know what that means.

I had another friend who went into a soaphouse without any money on him, got a happy ending and somehow escaped with his life. That's not really 'meeting women', but it's a noteworthy story, given that I guess it was a place that some yakuza told him to go to.

I'm not sure Masako sama could be described as a baby machine, seen as she has dropped one girl and no male heir. Also, if you marry the heir to the throne (?), it's hardly like the greatest career move ever, seen as you are basically signing up for a lifetime of public engagements...

lol hybrids....

So...what is it that you guys particularly like about asian women? The looks or personality (as is assumed to be)? Or Both?

What are you looking for?

I have wondered about this myself. I often see white guys with unattractive asian women, which leads me to think that the guy likes the Asian woman because she just looks alien to him, and he probably dealt with rejection from his own ethnicity in his formative years.

The other thing is that a lot of people, regardless of race, want to stand out in a crowd, and for a while, interracial couples were pretty novel. Not so much anymore, but definitely the case 10 to 15 years ago.

You know what I like? Russian and Eastern European women. I find them extremely sexual and uninhibited. Possibly too sexual and uninhibited for me over a long term, but still a lot of fun.

I guess that's personality instead of looks, so I should specify I only mean hot Russians.

Well, thanks a lot for all the tips guys.
I`m gonna hunting now. :D

What kind of women are you trying to get? If you are looking for one night stands with somewhat ugly or dirty women then by all means go to the 300 YEN bar, HUB, and Roppongi.

If you are looking for more together women with better looks and who can talk about something deeper than "Your so cool your from America" then I recommend you to step out of your comfort zone a bit and go to random local bars and such.

The best place to do this is at Shimokitazawa. Shimokitazawa is a station which is just a few stops from Shibuya on the Inokashira Line. It's kind of similar to San Francisco, not in looks but in atmosphere. Lot's of local hole in the wall unique places. Most people there are into music, art, film, etc. and the bars reflect that. The place is grimy, dirty, graffiti on the walls, but that's why people love it. It has this indescribable charm to it. Some really interesting places there. Plus if you talk to a random person there they are likely to welcome you and be someone you can have a lot of fun with for the whole day/night. Just a few nights ago I was waiting for my friend at the North exit of Shimokitawa Station and a group of people yelled at me to come over. They had an 80's boom box blaring everything from early 90's pop to Anarchy in the UK Sex Pistols, along with five bottles of tequila. It was what they called a "Free Drink Party at the Station". These are they type of people you meet at Shimokitazawa and why this place is great. If it wasn't for me finding this town I probably would have moved back to California already.

People in Roppongi and Shibuya are often too busy trying to be "cool" to be any fun and the sheer amount of foreigners acting idiotic in those places will likely make you cringe. Looks wise the girls that hang at the 300 YEN bar and the HUB in Shibuya are usually pretty ugly looking to be honest. If you go to Roppongi they are a lot better looking than the girls at Shibuya, usually more of a "sexy" look though since they are going for foreigners and one night stands even more so and are often quite obnoxious sounding, such as screaming for no reason to shitty 50 Cent music etc. (Think girls on Hollywood Blvd. on Saturday night). The girls you will find in Shimokitazawa and other areas of Tokyo have more of that stereotypical "cute" look and more originality to them, and as Hanfuda said, will take a bit more work to get. Different areas of Japan are known for different types of people just like everywhere else in the world but in Japan this is to an extreme. It always boggles my mind how you see only one type of person in a certain area, and they never seem to see them in another. IE: Gyadu are usually only in Shibuya, sluts and wannabe richies in Roppongi, hipsters hippies potheads and artsies in Shimokitazawa, nerds in Akihabara, etc. It makes me think if there is some sort of law or something forbidding different groups of people to stray away from their designated stomping grounds!

So it all kind of depends on what your going for.

God. I think being a film student jaded me into an artistic prick. That or I'm just a total hipster.

Yea. I think I'm just a hipster. No... Make that the only hipster in the world who doesn't wear tight jeans.

Anyhow, I have no idea what your into but I hope you have fun wherever it is you go. If you want me to PM you some good bars and hang out spots in Shimokitazawa though I would be more than happy to.

Here are some pics of Shimokitazawa I ganked from the internet so you can get the vibe of the place.

That's sad....but it seems to be true, I guess the really pretty gals don't need a foreigner to make them feel special.

Oh right! There's that other thing, my friends were joking about it yesterday, they said they saw something somewhere where it said "to asian women: thanks for making white men feel like black men". I think that implies something about sizes....

The problem w/ Shimo is the same problem w/ Shibuya -- it's a bit young. That's not bad if it's what you're after, but it's not everyone's cup of tea. I agree, it's a great town assuming no massive Earthquake hits (it's gone in such a cases)

Don't worry about going too far in the long term. Russian and Eastern European women have an awesome natural timer that turns them from stunning to hideous in just a year or two. No more problems with attraction.

Generally speaking, most Jap males have a complex about having small junk, and think that westerners are better endowed. I dunno if it is a reality or just their insecurity. Suffice to say I never use public urinals in Japan as I soon got tired of not being able to take a slash without some loser trying to check out my gear...

Which dimensional warp gate do I go through to get to your Japan?

Did I say something you don't agree with?

In 10 years I've only had my willy examined about twice, and it was when we were all pretty fucked up, and once was b/c we were discussing circumcision for some reason. In fact, I'd say there's far too much cock brandishing... at least at the gym, given the close quarters. Hardly a complex.

Well, I could have worded it better. It's not like it was a daily happening, but I have had it a few times.

Still, I don't think I have ever come across a stereotype that the Japanese are well endowed.

I definitely won't go that far. I think it's just biology though. Smaller frame across the board....

No experience seeing an erect one either.

Was the article in a 1973 issue of Reader's Digest? Because that doesn't sound accurate at all. I'll admit I've only ever lived in the big city, but there were always plenty of women working in every kind of business all over town. Maybe it's different in rural areas, and I guess they wouldn't count running mom & pop-type shops as being "workforce," but that still doesn't sound right.

In 2006, women accounted for 39.5% of the total workforce in Japan. Not that bad really (the US is 46%). However, women accounted for 67.3% of the part-time jobs.

They account for 3.7% of all management positions (including lower management).

There's also a huge gap between married and single Japanese women. 83% of single mothers in Japan work (that's actually a higher percent than the US), once married though it drops to about 1 in 3.

The way the Japanese government counts "unemployment" to come up with their current 5.1% unemployment rate is interesting. Married women who don't have a job are never counted. Thus, 2 out of 3 married women are not being counted.

If the method of counting was changed where able-bodied married women without a job were counted, then their unemployment rate would be around 21%.

Not picking on Japan because the US also has countless little shady ways to avoid counting people when factoring that up. I'm sure the true unemployment rate here in the US is probably 15-18%.

The public panics easy over unemployment rates, it effects the citizens and international confidence in the county, so imagine if Japan or the US was to come out and list theirs as 15-20%, people would go apeshit. Hell, just saying the US is about to reach 10% has half our country screaming the economic end is coming (ie...Fox News).

I've never seen a male Japanese porn star, if there was ever one Hung Pow would be a great name.

.

The average 8 hours in a daycay center for a child in Japan is set higher than any other country in the world. In fact, it's nearly 260% higher than the 2nd place country. Government regulations on private daycare centers are behind the extreme cost.

Your average worker in Japan would have to work 22 hours to pay for 1 day of daycare. Thus, not having a woman at home to watch your kids would bankrupt most families overnight.

Where did you get those numbers from?

Not counting housewives is shady?

Would you also count retired persons as "unemployed?"

In the US you have to not have a job, but want one and be actively seeking a job, in order to be considered unemployed.

I'll bet the number of single mothers per capita in Japan is about 10%-20% at best, of what it is in America though.

It's about something "exotic" and unfamiliar.

Hey, as long as you admit why you're dating them instead of living in denial it's all good.

I think a lot of black African women are absolutely stunning.
