Why does everyone get so flared up when someone mentions something potentially negative about Japan? I hate this attitude you all have towards new members who are just asking a question. If someone came on here and said the same thing about America, for example, not many people would have the same attitude. He/She was not flaming Japan, merely asking a question about it so he/she could find out better what it was like. They were questioning the stereotype, so that they could find out about this kind of thing better and not be given the wrong information. Isn't that what Japan forum is for? To give a realistic perspective instead of an ideal one? His/her post had no negative overtones in my eyes, unless you wanted to look at it that way yourself. If you don't like it, don't post.
