Coming in Version 2.0!

This is Japan we're talking about. Japanese men tend to have a bit of a boob fetish, which is understandable given the average cup size in Japan. Its the same has the obsession with light skin and blonde hair/blue eyes. Unlike the European countries, Japan is fairly homogenous. So anything outside the norm is exotic and a turn-on. Big boobs is outside the norm, and this being a world of fantasy, they would be crazy not to let ppl experience the giant boobs they don't get to see in real life.

Course they could just come to America, but thats a lot more expensive lol

Wow just wow lol what a load of BS in this post.

Wow just wow lol what a load of BS in this post.

Oh really now??

What if I told you that information came from

1) My Japanese teacher, who is from Japan btw.

2) My Japanese friend, who sadly had to go back to Japan

3) Conversations with the Japanese foreign exchange students

Of course they were probably generalizing, like we generalize about our own culture, but that doesn't make it BS. Obviously it can't apply to everyone in a culture, but you can apply things like that to a culture generally. Just look at a culture's media to get a feel for things.

Blonde hair/blue eyes is rare in Japan and is considered really attractive. Ask any woman who's gone there, Japanese women find it beautiful. Skin color is the same deal. My Japanese teacher said that in general, fairer skin is considered more attractive. Of course this is in Japan, we're not talking about Japanese Americans.

All in all its not BS~ its straight from the source itself. I spend a lot of time learning about Japanese culture from my friends who come from there, so I'd appreciate it if you didn't call BS on everything that didn't agree with you.


EDIT: Look at anime/manga/models/tv and tell me that you don't see

1) fair skin

2) bigger boobs than average

Media reflects the social/cultural ideas of any given society.

Actually I think he was commenting that alot of other cultures would be for this the whole bust enlargement thing too not just Japan, especially in the good ol U.S.A. where we like'm big. :P Granted he could have put it more tactfully.

Oh yeah of course!! But thats cuz Western cultures, especially the U.S.A. have a "bigger is better" attitude. Thats why we have American Muscle cars, Giant skyscrapers, an average cup size of D (thanks to plastic surgery), the atomic bomb, big guns, etc etc. Western culture loves big things.

Different cultures like big boobs, but for vastly different reasons lol.

I forget the anime's name, but its a anime that is short, and recently put out.. That the entire point is "Big boobs mean power/money!"... Yeah. I can believe what lux is saying 100%.
