How conservative the Japanese people really is? And the government?

They don’t have the so-called “couple culture” seen in many Western countries.

I’ve heard it’s always the male side that is expected to take a move in some countries. It’s not the case in Japan.

In the old era, gay relationships were very common and were even praised among the privileged social classes, such as Samurai and monks.

What do women talk about mostly(among themselves)?

Yaoi

They were very similar to the bromance of today but accompanied by sexual intercourse.

How do you see these below?

Is anyone up to have a little conversation?

“None of my business” is the common attitude.

Visual-kei

They don’t tease or beat up cross-dressed people on the road.

Has anyone ever made you take off your shirt?

This is a very vague question. But considering the asker’s comment on Mr. Nakajima’s answer, your interest seems to be in sex-related matters (I don’t think it’s the only indicator of conservative/ progressive, though).

It’s very common for a girl/ woman to ask a boy/ man to be her boyfriend.

I sometimes feel people from the West are obsessed with those “gender” and “sex” things too much. Let’s think about something else sometimes. It’s unhealthy.

Why does a straight man like anal penetration?

Moreover, buff guys are often avoided for their narcissism.

They don’t have the value that “guys must be macho.”

We don’t instantly tie it with sex when a father and his very young daughter are taking a bath together.

Hi, I’m Jo. My best friend died 2 years ago today. My husband died 6 months later. So, I’m a depressed mess (we were married 28 years) and can’t shake it. Even my Brother is worried. Some days I don’t do anything, and avoid men cause I don’t want to date. Any suggestions? Thanks for reading.

They don’t bring around their mates everywhere, which means they don’t worry about being single, gay, or whatever because no one cares about whom others are having/ not having sex with.
