Posted in: Suga refuses to move into official residence despite criticism See in context

A man who is considerate of his partner's wishes - specifically her desire for privacy in a world which is very cruel to women in the spotlight, is to be admired as an individual. Only a sexist sack of spittle would equate this with weakness rather than fairness.

Posted in: Disaster-prone Japan to step up efforts to help evacuees with pets See in context

Privately-run shelters and grassroots groups have borne the weight of caring for pets abandoned after a natural disaster. There should absolutely be steps in place for people to be sheltered together with their animals.

What a waste of money, this fine property standing empty when there are so many people needing somewhere to live, who don't give a toss about ghosts. They should turn it into a shelter, and let all the PMs live in that flat.

We need to get away from this mask culture. How long do you want to see everyone with their faces hidden ?

There's the airport. Off you go.

Absolutely, Luddite. This is a really dumb idea. Imagine the scenario - "There's Rieko-chan, she's my daughter and I've come to pick her up."

"I'm visiting Mayumi san but I forgot her apartment number, can you buzz me in the building?"

Men and boys are at risk too of course - identity theft, violent attack, kidnapping. Sadly, we must be wary of being easy to track.

Yes, children are important, which means they deserve not to live in an unhappy, dishonest, or abusive household. That is far more damaging than adapting to a two-household family.

Teen suicide feeds on publicity so let's stop feeding.

Yes, let's ignore it. That'll help.

Posted in: Saitama begins plans to regulate how to use escalators; prohibit walking up and down See in context

I do walk up and down escalators, but I am always aware that there are those on them who may be startled off-balance by my sudden appearance, so I slow down and keep well to the other side when passing people. When in doubt, I stop walking. I am aware that I am breaking a rule. Just because being passed doesn't bother me, doesn't mean I should disregard those who are affected.

Good for this man. Male mental health wouldn't be so at risk if more men were like him, showing that you don't have to live your life against your beliefs, in a way that damages you, or limit yourself because the previous generations decided that was the way things were done.

Posted in: Filmmaker Joss Whedon faces 'Buffy' actor abuse claims See in context

And there we have it, folks. In an article about repeated sexual harassment, readers' takeaway is "Ooh, shiny pictures!"

It is so disillusioning to learn about Whedon - and the rumours and truth have been going about for some time. A man who put himself forward as a progressive and a feminist, is just another abusive arsehole, supported by his buddies, and getting away with it because they can.

And still there are lots of people accusing the victims of lying.

Posted in: Man arrested for stalking woman repeatedly placed notes in her handbag See in context

I know women who have been raped, sexually assaulted, stalked, followed, had someone enter their home under false pretences, physically attacked, lived with domestic violence and emotional/financial control.

Oh, but I don't personally know anyone who has been murdered - yet - so it must not be a problem.

ffs.

Posted in: Man arrested for stalking woman repeatedly placed notes in her handbag See in context

If he is, most would have seen his actions as "cute".

What on earth do you base that on? These women didn't know who was stalking them. Do you think that woman enjoy constantly being followed and having someone invade your privacy? Not knowing if this stranger stole your personal details, your address, your keys? Anyone who believes that women like living in fear is deluded, as well as very lucky that you don't have to live every day being careful where you walk and who is behind you.

If it really was healthy or delicious they had surely already cooked or produced it decades or centuries ago.

Yes, because everything healthy, delicious, and worthwhile has already been done, centuries ago. Nothing new under the sun since the 1600s.

Good for vegetarians, though there are more than likely to be hidden ingredients, even stock and flavouring made with animal flesh. Always ask and double-check. As Pukey2 says, plant-based doesn't mean vegan, or even vegetarian, in Japan.

I'm pleased to hear this. I looked them up on line last week and when I saw the words Permanently closed, was sad. They ought to update their online info to show that they have relocated.

Of course. Surely the property owners, as business people, can claim support from the govt., so they won't suffer?

Posted in: Tennis star Osaka slams 'ignorant' sexism from Tokyo Olympics chief See in context

You know, 'saying someone speaks with ignorance' or is 'ignorant' is not an insult or "impolite". Look it up.

Ignorance is when someone lacks knowledge or information, either through no fault of their own, or deliberately.

It does not equal calling someone 'stupid' - which is an insult that I am always careful not to use.

Mori is ignorant of many things, and at his age it is clearly deliberate. I would hope that most other people wish to be more informed and aware, not less.

And in Japan, most Japanese rather want to have their ear cleaned by cute maid than to be destructed by the sex toys.

How very interesting. I wonder how many Japanese woman have this mimikaki fantasy?

As for being "destructed", you clearly haven't met the right toy yet. Treat yourself, go buy one, live a little, and maybe you can pleasure your partner as well as yourself one day.

She also 'forgot' to wipe the bloody handprints off her door, also clearly in view. Very forgetful woman.

The Womanizer toys are sold on Rakuten.

Hmm. They aren't cheap, but you get what you pay for with vibrators.

Some branches of Don Quijote have an adult toys section, but the products are cheap and they are not the best designs - you need something hygienic without 'seams', and with decent battery power or a USB charge.
