*clap clap*

I`ve been here *10* and I still have yet to experience active discrimination. I`m sure if I behaved differently things might be different though...

The local councils in Japan maintain lists of these people for other Japanese to look up if their children have a partner.
Wrong. They only contain the information you listed up there. People can look it up and *guess* that someone`s family was of a low caste in the past based on where they lived, or by doing genealogy research, but there is no "database" or list with that information. In fact, maps listing those areas are suppressed by the government to make it harder to find the information.


If anyone is trying to find me… Tamyuun on Instagram is probably the easiest.
