I laughed when you said “ I too don’t understand how women attracted men,cause I don’t” me : lmao..me too🤣

@@yanapda ..aww 🤗 *sigh* It feel strange to get a response that kinda make me feel like I am not that different. Hmm, maybe because I've been sorrounded by people who live inside the closet. I prefer night than day, but despite that, I don't get what so fun living inside the closet equipped to block sun rays 🤷‍♀️ perhaps, it is not fun at all. 😅 Yah, it feels strange--strange in a nice way. 🙃

I feel the same way. As a trans guy I was never attracted to women sexually and I just can't understand how people find women's bodies sexually appealing instead of just pretty/good looking, but then again, we all need to respect eachother :,))

I don’t understand why this has to be talked about in the first place. But it is a good thing for men and women to be attracted to one another since we would go extinct lol. How can you not understand that? And what is there to understand? Love is an attraction all sexualities. I can understand being attracted to anyone regardless of gender as long as you love them and have a healthy relationship. And as long as we don’t go extinct, that’s great too.

....... wut??

Denying someones gender is not asking them to feel bad or want to die. Lol.

yeah denying someone doesn't exactly means you want them to feel bad or to die, this is such an exaggeration. it's like denying someone who do quirky things in public because you don't want to make more scene with them since you don't know how to interact with them

@@chickenflavor9880 Denying someone's gender makes them feel bad and want to die. Trans suicide attempt percentage stats are higher than the general population, yet people who are transphobic don't really care

@@firstlast2602 And it's completely different from being "quirkly"-- trans people do not choose to be transgender, but whether they transition is a choice, if you consider the two options of either transitioning or committing suicide because otherwise you would be living a lie your whole life as a choice. Most people say suicide is not something you should choose. So it's kind of obligatory to transition for many. It's kind of a lose-lose decision though because even if you do transition, there's the chance of being murdered or harassed so bad by intolerant people that you would still want to commit suicide. Which is why the hope is to surround yourself with accepting people.

@@cameronschyuder9034 there are people who choose to be either ironically or unironically, but yeah i get what you mean. what i'm talking about is for people who don't know what to do in that situation and just ignores them because they don't want to make a scene for interacting in some ways or saying their mind

true story

don't agree with people don't really care about other people or what they do or believe in or what they identify as, we human literally go to war to fight for what we believe, so its in our nature.

This is just an excuse, its called being passive. Second worst to comitting evil is standing there and allowing it to happen.

@@andri7589 An over simplification on my part admittedly on a whole complex and nuanced subject, but the idea still holds true and ''not giving a fuck'' is as much in our nature if even more than going to war over beliefs or such, for example majority of the world has grown out of religious reason to go to war, given the choice and option for people to skip fighting when it doesn't affect them or their country or future, you won't find many who would fight just for the sake of fighting. Now what constitutes as a valid, rightful, just, correct or reasonable reason to fight or go to war is a different subject all together, for that's no longer an individual ''thing'' but a collective thought or idea over something greater that a single person which multiple people think/believe in, either by themselves or from being told so by someone else whom they think they should/can believe in, this is called propaganda in it's extreme form, but again, straying to a different topic

@@sagephil You seem to be eager to form connection with being quiet and observing with people formulating their own opinions overtime and being compliant with genocide or other such acts for example, which are two totally different thing and journey to either is not the same by a long shot.

Feel your pain, bro ⊂⁠(⁠・⁠﹏⁠・)

I think maybe it helps that there is no religious doctrine in Japanese tradition that dictates that homosexuality is a sin. Buddhism has long been the dominant religion, and the most popular form of Buddhism there, Shin, founded by Shinran Shonin, who was an incredibly, incredibly open minded and accepting man. He loved and saw the Buddha-nature in everyone. The American Shin Buddhist organization, Buddhist Churches of America, was the first religious organization here to formally perform same-sex weddings starting sometime back in the 70s. And the historical Buddha said nothing whatsoever about homosexuality or gender identity. His concern with sex usually was that it’s just a sensual pleasure, so it is not ultimately satisfying and doesn’t help in achieving Nirvana - so there’s no way in which straight sex is better or worse than gay sex. So in Buddhist countries, if homophobia is traditional, it’s in spite of Buddhism, not because of it. Not so with Christianity, because even if Jesus, like Buddha, also never said a word that we know of about homosexuality or gender identity, his predecessors in the Hebrew faith and his successors in his apostles and Church fathers said a lot about it being evil and worthy of damnation. I personally believe Jesus had better ideas than anyone who had a hand in editing his words and deeds into a Bible.

I mean, its a clear trend. The men were less generous and the women were more.

@@sagephilProbably why Japanese women have been marrying American and foreign men in the past 2 decades.

That line warmed my heart! You gotta love that simple perspective (:

A lot of girls have a close relationship with their female friends, and may end up identifying as bisexual or lesbian. Men are discouraged to experiment or act in a certain way because it would be an affront to their masculinity. I guess it's also slightly more acceptable for women to be masculine. Feminine men, for example, are still shunned. That's one of the reasons why transgender women get so much flack. Not conflating the two, but I hope you understood what I meant: the general public still doesn't understand the difference.

it as to do with toxic masculinity. Men are scared of being seen as less of a man/secretly gay if they assciate with LGBT+ so they lash out against this group that makes them uncomfortable/challenges their insecurities

its getting worst

Not from the West but I doubt it. Growing up Catholic, I can say that virulent homophobia is in the very fabric of that religion. It would only have been worse in my grandparent’s time. So I’d argue any Judeo-Christian based society would have more homophobic people than Shinto-Buddhist. None of these people grew up being told all gay people go to hell.

@@Angels510 That's a religious problem and further more problem in places in the world where people are very religious, i would argue majority in the European countries, even if there are religious catholic's, christian's or what not's, majority of the population is pretty much, ''you do you pal all the power to you, i hope you have a happy life, now can i go about my day?''

@@Angels510 Well a lot of western countries have gay marriage and Japan and most of Asia doesn't

Definitely! Your own experiences shape how you understand things, and it's important to at least recognise the attempts at understanding or acceptance and progression among them.

Exactly, you can't know how it is to be a certain way because you are not in the person's shoes. As a gay FTM, I can't really understand how it is to be bisexual or non-binary, for example, even though I am gender non-conforming and I have been attracted to people from the opposite gender. I don't consider myself bi because it's something so inconstant, that the term doesn't suit me. I am into androgyny and hate gender roles, but I want to be called a man and be seen as one, so that's why I'm not NB and I get offended at people saying that I am. I feel like there's been progress in terms of prejudice amongst older folk, but they will never comprehend it fully. I try to explain concepts to my elderly mother and she doesn't understand, because in her time the classifications were different. To her, a travesti (Latin American transfeminine identity) is the same as a gay person. Things like that. I feel like we have to be patient with those who don't "get it" and they have to be patient with us.

Hope and progress? Tf you on about, you acting like lgptq people are locked in concentration camps or some shit

I wonder if they're expressing their true thoughts or just using tatemae.

To my experience, immigrant communities tend to lean on the conservative side, if they emigrated from a country with (and they also have) conservative values at the time

@@cameronschyuder9034One of my former and favorite female professors is gay, Kazakh (so you could imagine what that was like with a very conservative and very Christian country was like for her in the 90s growing up), and has been always open about it. She calmly explains on the first day of class that we will be talking about some darker stuff and some not so fun stuff in regards to statistics and LGBT people (which is what that Sociology class was focusing on), and would tell us her own story of how she met her wife, and before that girlfriend of the last decade, while going to the UK and studying there for her Masters degree in Sociology. Something her parents were hesitant to accept because they didn't think she could make as much money as in another field. Then she moved to the US and got her Doctorate. She would tell the classes, no matter what the Sociology class was, How they decided against kids of their own and instead adopted twins in 2011. She was incredibly open on day one about her sexuality and then would ask if anyone wanted to transfer out of the class because it made them uncomfortable, and of course everyone was pretty fine with it. But it was another new perspective that I saw and was seeing for the first time.

thanks for this comment, you really are what LGBT person actually is, not the one who screams TrAnS pOsItIvItY or LgBt RiGhTs while also doing sexual things arbitrarily or sexualize everything saying that it's their "choice" and get away with it (i'm looking at you pornstars). i always find LGBT people replies/comments to people who dislike them always say something like "homophobic" "anything-phobic" "conservatives" "close minded" "why hating" which is mostly not the case. they don't want to get any prejudice for their sexuality but they also do that to people who have an opinion like that they don't like them which irritates me, so your comment is such a breath for me. so again, thank you for your unbiased comment and actually comment something that actually help LGBT community to not get discriminated. unlike those people who "support" but in practice they're not and just spread hatred to people who don't like them which only adds fire. also i hope you stay healthy 👍 (sorry for the bad grammar)

i feel the same. i hear so many violent and heartless comments about LGBT people here in the US, even from parents talking about their own children, that most of the responses from this video seem pretty positive.

Same. I'm okay if they just let us be.

Japanese people are not prejudice, but may be elder Japanese people, like these interviewed.

i mean, letting someone be isnt the same as acceptance, its more like tolerance

But they weren't born this way

How a Japanese person acts in a public interview and how they act in private can be two VERY different things. Gossip, talking behind someone's back, and bullying are the preferred harassment methods in Japan, not outspoken attacks and public violence. I'm not accusing these older people of anything, it's just something to keep in mind.

That, and the fact that a lot of women experiment, and masculinity in girls is relatively accepted. Men are discouraged from acting effeminate or doing certain things with their male friends.

@@OtogiMyth Actually, some people really have a problem with people being asexual. The other commenter mentioned that there's pressure to marry/have kids, and people can also see that as violating religious laws... for others, they see it as weird or unnatural, to the point where they think it's a cult or something dangerous. Others think it's the result of trauma or some sort of damage, and think it needs to be fixed (through conversion therapy, medication, 'corrective rape' etc.) I've been out as asexual for about 15 years now and I've had all sorts of bad reactions unfortunately. I think as it's becoming something more people have heard of or had some kind of previous introduction to, I'm getting less severe bad reactions from the general population.
