Yukina Kinoshita dispenses marriage advice

46 Comments

TV celebrity and underwear model Yukina Kinoshita, 22, was the guest of honor at the 10th Sanai Swimwear Image Girl event in Tokyo this week as one of the company's former "image girls."

Kinoshita, who makes up one third of idol group Pabo alongside celebrities Suzanne, 24, and Mai Satoda, 26, was asked how she felt about the recent announcement that Satoda was in a relationship with Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles pitcher Masahiro Tanaka. She replied with a smile, "I already knew they were dating. I think they look great together." On the subject of marriage she said, "I think we'll leave that to them, right?"

Having recently got married to comedian Toshifumi Fujimoto, 39, Kinoshita was asked what the secret to a happy marriage was. She replied, "When you fight, the man should apologize."

Meanwhile, Tokiko Kitagawa, 23, was chosen as this year's 10th Sanai Swimwear Image Girl.

Could have been worse; could have been cooking advice. She looks like a scarecrow in the background of that pic.

Well that's it I'm not getting married then. Until she gets divorced and changes her tune.

That's just dumb. In a fight, both parties should apologize and own up to their responsibilities. No one is ever always wrong or always right.

I kinda wish she'd dispense with the advice.

“When you fight, the man should apologize.”

Yeah, because women are NEVER wrong. I hate comments like this. If it was a guy saying something like "When you fight, the woman should shut the hell up and make me a sandwich" there would be booing. Sexual equality is only used by women when it suits them.

She'll be divorced in a year or so anyway. Lets all laugh at her then.

Yeah shut the #$%& up and cook eggs Bi@tch

Actually, IMO, there is some truth to what she says. Again, IMO, fights are just wasted energy (except maybe for the make-up sex) and "winning" a fight does not make a mature person any happier. Better to be the bigger person and get on with things, rather than wait for the other person to apologize.

Perhaps the stupidist article I have ever read. Even more than those Best ??? awards. This article offers no advice to anyone. It is not even a story, it`s silliness from a young drama queen who probably controls her weak and whipped 39 year old husband. And let me guess that when she made this remark everyone in the room went "so desu ne." Grow up.

I once saw a short blurb on CNN about a British couple married for 75 years! They asked the woman the secret of their long life together, and she replied, "He always let me have my own way." I think there is a grain of truth in what this bikini-clad girlie girl is saying.

She replied, “When you fight, the man should apologize.”

well a 39 year old pussy whipped man will say anything to keep his 22 year old underwear model trophy wife.

Exactly! If you are 39 and are lucky enough to have a 22 yr old wife who gets paid to model underwear, its not a big thing to say "sorry" every now and then, you dont even have to mean it, just say it.

these girls don't have all their marbles. These fantasy marriages never work out. More puke news from Japans plastic entertainment industry. He has a 22 year old bikini wife, so what.

Wrong, but I used to apologize for things I did not even do just to shut the wench up.

When you fight, the man should apologize.

my husband is so stubborn and he does not like to say sorry.. so when we argue, it is almost always me who first says sorry -- it actually makes it easier for him to say sorry.. i say im sorry and he says he's sorry, TOO... see it works?? :)

0 ( +0 / -0 )

ask her again in 10 years when she might actually have some experience in marriage! a marriage is a partnership of two friends, and lovers so if you both feel you are right, you can just agree to disagree some points since our kids have being born, we made it a point not to argue in the house, so now, we find nothing to argue about, it just doesnt seem important anymore,,,

0 ( +0 / -0 )

pamelot -- exactly the point I tried to make. Sometimes you have to choose to always be "right" or be happy. Personally I choose happy, which is why my gal and I have not fought in at least three years.

She should stick to showing her physicall assets off rather than allowing to get a glimpse of her pathetic mental ones.

She replied, “When you fight, the man should apologize."

She's right, say sorry, and forget it. A man should not allow the situation develop into an argument, you will always lose, because women are always right about everything, even when they are wrong.

I haven't had a single fight or bad word said with my GF in 5 years. Win before you begin.

She is too immature and stuck-up to apologize. Her advise is garbage.

I always get this from my witch - oops, I mean dear wife.

"Why won't you admit you're wrong?" "Because, you moron, if I thought I was wrong I wouldn't be fighting about it. Now where's my tea?"

And then the crockery starts.

With my close to 20 years of marriage, my advise is "no matter whether I am right or wrong, just apologize." A peaceful household is a much better environment. Besides, I do have a short term memory and will forget the whole thing real fast; however, most women have a hard drive as memory and will spill things back out regardless of how long it has past.

"When u fight, the man should apologize"

Why should I apologize to her if it's her fault? And girls seem to think it's their way or no way, and we guys just sometimes stupid enough to fall for the CRYINGS :(:(:( well, not me!!! It is very obvious this girl is very "22" years young to make such marriage advise! I've been dating my girl (she's Japanese) for almost a year and when we fight or argue(quite often lately) I'll never say sorry to her first unless it's my fault. Japanese girls seems lack of MATURITY even when they're almost 30.

Japanese girls seems lack of MATURITY even when they're almost 30.

What do you expect, when they're taught the most important quality in a woman is acting like an eight-year-old? That, and the constant infantilisation of all media - of course they're immature.

“When you fight, the man should apologize.”

I wouldn't take this too seriously. She said it tongue in cheek. She looked really anorexic on TV the other day. Her cheeks were droopy and she looked really ragged and bony compared to just a year earlier. I think her friends and family need to keep an eye on her.

Speed, I agree with your entire post full heatedly! But there are a few that will blast you for calling a lady ugly, aged, ragged, etc. Sheeeesh, so much for opinions huh?

" She replied, “When you fight, the man should apologize.”

If that's 'advice' it's BAD advice; and if she really does believe that she'll be divorced within two years, I'd say.

If the apology is to admit wrongdoing and attempt to repent, then the 'guilty party' should apologize, bottom line.

If the apology is meant simply to mollify the other part, as in not necessarily admitting guilt (especially when the fight is over nothing in particular), then why should it be limited to the man?

It's a shame... I thought her first comment about 'leaving it to them' in regards to Satoda and Tanaka was pretty respectful... then she opened her gob and spoke what strikes me as being her more genuine thoughts. Another air-head who thinks she knows about marriage at 22 years of age.

Q/How do you stop your wife coming out of the kitchen to argue with you?

A/ Take a few links out of her chain.

I dont understand how there are so many replies agreeing with this "The man should apologize" BS. If you are wrong, you apologize. If she is wrong, she should. If she doesnt want to, then tend to your hobby, go out with friends, blah blah. My woman apologizes far more than I do, because she is at fault more often. If you seriously cave into her every time there is an issue, then you probably deserve the lifestyle you have.

I apologize more often than not to my wife, regardless of who is to blame. The key is to choose your battles wisely. I never argue over the principal of anything. That is never worth it.

I'm glad previous generations disagreed with this view. And members of the current one. And with your choice of spelling of the word "principle".

As the great guru Mike Strutter says, "What's right is right".

“When you fight, the man should apologize.” I agree with her, the woman is selfishness, so the man should have big heart. But if the woman is wrong absolutely, it should apologize. Whenever you fight, the man should apologize; the woman will be more selfishness. I think the secret to a happy marriage is considerate of partner.
