I do. Man I think theyre culture is so cool, I mean they got Anime, Manga, they make the best video games plus the girls are cute. I also think the buildings look pretty cool too. It sucks being a guy from usa, I wish i was born japanese. They are so lucky. What about you guys?

I think you have an overly idealistic view of their culture.

It's pretty fun and peculiar, but I honestly can't see myself being part of it. It's so annoying that it can get on my nerves. I'd happily take a two month vacation to Japan, though.

You realise that you an enjoy all of that stuff as a white guy from the USA, right? And no, I'm quite happy being what I am. I do like Japanese food and games, but I wouldn't want to live there.

I have a cousin of mine that sometimes starts to make anime like face and speak Japanese... I'm not sure if to laugh at him or fell sad for him.

I admire many things about past and present Japanese culture. However, from various sources I am led to believe that racism and womanizing is very prevalent in Japan. I do not know how accurate this is, and I generally dislike generalizations . . . Anyone have insight?

From what I've researched, they're not so much racist as they're prejudice. It's expected in most Asian cultures. I was going to study in Thailand, but I decided not to... that's definetly a racist country.

also, what's stopping your from enjoying their anime, girls. video games and architecture. It's not like you are going to enjoy them more simply by being Japanese, in fact I think you might not like them as much as you do now.

I don't think weeaboos admit it. I've seen lots of people around the internet that pretend to be Japanese. It's really weird and a bit creepy. People on youtube writing in japanese and posting videos with japanese text (with poor google translation) usually relating to JRPGs or anime, people that play games like ni no kuni with the japanese voice over despite there being excellent English voice overs and people on Skyrim Nexus that have some Japanese name or anime name that makes skins of weird weeaboo anime characters, which usually look like some strange large-eyed young girl wearing a tiny skirt and carrying a massive sword.

No I like myself to much to want to be anything else. Japanese should be happy with themselves and anyone else with themselves also. There is no good in wishing you were someone else or being jealous of your fellow man.

Nope. Like someone else said, you don't have to be Japanese to enjoy that stuff. Hell, I never really enjoyed anything Japanese besides my PS3. And Japanese girls wouldn't go out with another asian guy if they had other options. :P

 

And this is by far the most one sided poll I've ever seen. :lol:
