Case in point; my Japanese mother-in-law (from Japan and living there) sent me (a white guy) some traditional Japanese attire to wear at a Japanese festival here in the US. The non-Japanese Asian *American* didn't catch flak for wearing theirs, but I sure did even when holding my wife's (who was decked out to the nines in a fancy kimono) hand. It truly makes me sad that these things happen in the world these days.


The character in question's an anthropologist, does it count as CA if it's for academic research purposes?
Want to hear something funny that shows how dumb American SJWs are?

I worked on a US/Japanese joint base in Japan for a few years and every year we had a festival where all of the Americans were encouraged to wear traditional Japanese attire. The Japanese people loved it. It's only the American leftwing professional offendatrons who get butthurt over stupid things like "cultural appropriation" or whatever made up term they're calling it this week.

On an unrelated note, you don't know ugly until you've seen a 7ft tall neon white, bald, skinny navy captain in a Kimono and the traditional wooden sandals.
