How conservative the Japanese people really is? And the government?

How do you see these below?

I’ve heard it’s always the male side that is expected to take a move in some countries. It’s not the case in Japan.

They don’t have the value that “guys must be macho.”

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?

I sometimes feel people from the West are obsessed with those “gender” and “sex” things too much. Let’s think about something else sometimes. It’s unhealthy.

In the old era, gay relationships were very common and were even praised among the privileged social classes, such as Samurai and monks.

It’s very common for a girl/ woman to ask a boy/ man to be her boyfriend.

Have you ever had a weird experience immediately following the death of a loved one that made you think there is an afterlife and that the deceased person was communicating with you?

“None of my business” is the common attitude.

Yaoi

They don’t bring around their mates everywhere, which means they don’t worry about being single, gay, or whatever because no one cares about whom others are having/ not having sex with.

Why do entitled people demand that I pick up after my doggo when he goes to the bathroom? Do they not know that doggy doo decomposes & feeds the plants?

We don’t instantly tie it with sex when a father and his very young daughter are taking a bath together.

This is a very vague question. But considering the asker’s comment on Mr. Nakajima’s answer, your interest seems to be in sex-related matters (I don’t think it’s the only indicator of conservative/ progressive, though).

Visual-kei

How do you feel about Donald Trump signing an executive order that says there are only two genders?

Moreover, buff guys are often avoided for their narcissism.

They don’t tease or beat up cross-dressed people on the road.

They were very similar to the bromance of today but accompanied by sexual intercourse.

Is there a stereotype that South Indians are physically strong and muscular compared to other regions of India?

They don’t have the so-called “couple culture” seen in many Western countries.
