RE: NEC-HE-shrine Yahoo Japan torture
It's the same in America guys -- what music section is ALWAYS next to the
register in the records stores? Rap, b/c 'black people are theives'.
Japanese culture has always been behind western by a few decades -- the
birth control pill just became illegal 2 years ago, as well as statutory
rape becoming illegal last year.
If your friend gets replied to in English ALL the time, perhaps his Japanese
isn't quite hot enough. Sometimes you get those people who will "dazzle you
with there 10 words of English" but I usually give them an ugly look and
make it clear that I'm not interested in being used as an English toy. :) I
never have that problem in Akihabara though.
