> Well as a man who is married to a Japanese woman I feel qualified to reply to your question. > > You are right that women in varying countries seem to have a more or less equal level of beauty. However beauty comes in many shapes and forms. Japanese women excel in certain areas (even over other Asian women) and if you're in to those areas you'd swear by Japanese women only. Japanese women are amazingly feminine, have almost scientifically perfect legs (and show them off at every opportunity), a good posture, and outwardly kind appearance. > > In my case feminimity in a woman is the most important criteria. > > I can't attest for women from New Zealand as I've never been there or met women who I could identify as being from New Zealand but I can speak volumes about how Japanese women are tens times as feminine as women in my home country of Canada are. > > What makes Japanese women more feminine than Canadian women? > > - They wear skirts/dresses as often if not more often than pants and even when its cold. > - They've heard of this thing called "hosiery". > - They laugh with their hands in front of their mouth. > - When they stand they cross their legs at the ankles. (also incredibly sexy) > - They have ultra-feminine voices. > - They carry their bags with one hand pointed forward. > - They let men show a little chivalry. (such as carrying heavy objects and reaching high places) > - They try not to develop muscles when working out (physical strength = masculine) > - They actually wear make up and do their hair.(I know so many women in Canada in desperate need of both) > - They have more shoes in their collection than just a pair of worn out nikes. > > and the list goes on... > > Now of course I am making generalizations here. There are of course feminine women in Canada. There are of course less-than-feminine women in Japan. But my generalizations are the rule and not the exception. Japanese woman are also very fit as a whole when compared to Canadian women. > > I sometimes get my friends to send me video tapes of shows aired in Canada that aren't available here in Japan and when I see the commercials with women it's kind of a culture shock to me and my wife. Not that they are ugly or anthing. But these women aren't exactly TV material either and they don't wear make up and they only wear baggy pants yada yada... I seriously think that had I not met my wife and moved to Japan I might still find Canadian women to my liking. Now I know the difference and there's no going back. > > I don't caste people into groups other than by their spirit/level of their contribution. > Having said that I do know what you mean though. I have seen Japanese women of seemingly fine caliber going out with guys that in Canada would have a hard time getting even a lunch date with a girl. But then I find so many wonderfully weird things about this country so I suppose it completes the circle. If this obviously insufficient answer doesn't put you at peace you'll just have to ask one of your J-girl friends. > > This input is merely my own opinion but I hope that it can be of some use to you. I wish women from Canada would come forth and ask the questions you have. But I suspect your questions are the result of having lived in Japan and even most women in your home country would never ponder them unless they were in your shoes.
