    The Japanese women I know and have known since childhood don't and didn't talk a lot even amongst themselves.

    Then again I suppose who it is you are comparing them too.....

      In and out of work can be worlds apart, e.g. the salaryman who is super subservient at work then lets loose drinking and partying in the karaoke bar.

      I'm curious that you've known Japanese women living in Japan since childhood. Penfriends?

          I'd comment that all Japanese are little... but a)some would get their knickers in a twist b)it's not really true any more - people I know who went decades ago and were head-and-shoulders above everyone around them in Tokyo now say this is greatly diminished.

                  I am a little-England Brexiter! I don't care what happens beyond Dover.

                  But Dover is a bad place. ex-mrs-bp-1 came from there....

                      No Japan was big on expanding the Empire.
                      Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
