Mister Chief posted:all of Japan's weird sexual fetishes and hangups are entirely their own doing and predate any possible western influence. That's very dismissive of you and pretty much entirely incorrect. Modern underwear wasn't even really a big thing in Japan until the middle of the last century. Before then women didn't really wear much of anything underneath their kimonos, aside from a waistcloth, which were a still a majority staple until the 1950s. Coming fresh off WW2, poverty was everywhere and underwear was still foreign fashion. This basically meant the only women wearing panties were part of rich families, or the well off prostitutes. At the same time, occupying forces were basically telling the Japanese women they should be ashamed of their vaginas and to purchase underwear. The birth of a fetish starts here. Tentacles are also a thing, the result of getting around censorship, because of the result of the same Western shaming. Japanese art had zero problem depicting nudity and sexuality before. It's not even the first(or last) time that European ideals have left their mark on a culture in a way like that, so why is it so hard to believe?

Jyrque sums it up pretty quickly. Only thing I would add is that citing The Dream of The Fisherman's Wife as the start of a fetish is pretty far fetched when tentacle porn stuff didn't take off for another century and a half. Saturn Devouring His Son didn't cause Paternal cannibalism of their offspring 40 years ago.Blackchamber posted:I think we are focusing on the wrong thing from the arcade trip... there is a machine that makes hot (cold) ham and cheese grilled sandwiches and one that dispenses a bowl of noodles that looks better than you'd expect out of a vending machine. My favorites are the ones that reward ice cream. I would be so broke, and unable to move away from the machine if we had those here. Skaw fucked around with this message at 13:39 on Dec 31, 2012 |
