Video: It's a shame not to shave your hands and receive compliments. Prohibitions that Japanese girls suffer from

The average Russian has an idea of a girl's life in Japan based on anime or photographs of models. According to them, it turns out that young Japanese women dress very frankly, are loud, amorous and constantly show leadership qualities. However, the image from the anime or from the pages of a magazine is very far from a living girl. First of all, the life of a young Japanese woman is a system of prohibitions.
Prohibitions for a Japanese woman are divided into two types: it is simply impossible and it is impossible because it is a shame. When the second type of prohibition is violated, the poor girl is overcome with suicidal thoughts. A Japanese woman will never think, "I'd rather be ashamed, but I will end the terrible situation." Ashamed for her, under no circumstances could it be better.
It's a shame to bite off
It is a shame if you are seen chewing or showing teeth during a bite. In many cases, Japanese women bypass this taboo by covering the lower part of their faces with their fists while eating in a cafe. But if a guy invited her on a date to some hamburger (and this is quite popular), then until recently the girl could only drown out the rumbling in her stomach with some drink, while her counterpart was enjoying dinner with might and main.
Fortunately, a few years ago, it became possible to borrow a special napkin from one of the chains of hamburger cafes. She not only covers her face while eating - she also depicts the lower part of a woman's face with a slight smile. The hamburger sales skyrocketed as girls now eat them too.
But, by the way, it is not forbidden to bellow with pleasure and slurp girls while eating. On the contrary, it shows respect for the one who serves lunch: so delicious!
Speaking of food, until recently it was unthinkable for a girl to take food in her hand. This behavior was shameful only for a man. But eating hamburgers with a knife and a fork is a little strange, so society recognized the need to take them in the hand, even for a girl. The main thing is that no one sees how she bites him.
Her body is her shame
It is unacceptable for Japanese of both sexes to bare their breasts, so a girl's body, open below the collarbones and above the waist, can only be seen in pictures, in cartoons and in photographs, the costumes from which no Japanese girl will repeat in her mind.
At the same time, T-shirts and blouses with such a cutout are often sold that Russian tourists do not understand how they can be worn. It's simple: over another shirt. The neckline should show that under one beautiful outfit, you have another beautiful outfit. This custom has been going on since the days when all Japanese wore kimono.
But bare legs do not bother anyone, so the length of the skirts of quite decent girls amazes the imagination of a European.
The Japanese are often considered to be devoid of bashfulness in many forms of corporeality. But this is definitely not the case for girls. It is very embarrassing if someone realizes that the girl entered the toilet stall for what this stall is intended for. To hide the purpose of the visit, the girls used to constantly flush water - they created a noise curtain. Now, in order to save fresh water, devices that reproduce the sound of water have been installed in public toilets - all you have to do is press a button. The same button can be found on some toilet bowls in the home.
A young Japanese woman will die of shame and if someone guesses that she is menstruating. If you think that Russian girls are embarrassed about the same thing, then try to imagine how a Russian girl is thinking of locking herself in her room forever just because someone realized what her cycle day is.
Be humble, even humble
A Japanese girl can't beat guys. Nothing. Many people prefer to interpret this as a special delicacy towards men. However, the daughters of European employees of Japanese firms were faced with the fact that they were insulted for a long time or even beaten by the crowd just because they allowed themselves to defeat the boy in some district judo competition.
There are several forms of language in Japanese, from simple and simply polite to incredibly polite. A girl can afford to speak in a simple form of language only with her friends, and that is not a fact that she will. In addition, only in anime can you find different intonations of the heroines. If a girl does not speak in a special girlish intonation - which sounds a little guilty to the Russian ear - the meaning of her words may not even be understood. But, rather, they will be considered rude with bad manners, and this is very embarrassing.
It's a shame to confess your love, kiss a guy even on the cheek, let him hug himself in public, or even hold his hand on the street.
And all this because it is a shame to draw the attention of men to themselves. Yes, girls are brightly colored, dress frankly, but they do it, first of all, under the pressure of youth fashion, not to observe which is social death. So all these mini-skirts are for girlfriends. If a man gives the girl even a modest compliment (“what a cute hairstyle!”) Or publicly gives the bride a bouquet of flowers, he will make her feel very uncomfortable.
For the same reason, it is a shame to try to slap a pervert who gropes a girl under her skirt or even takes pictures of her underwear. After all, this is to admit out loud that you have attracted the attention of a man! As if a young girl ever needed to get a man's attention on purpose …
Fortunately, recently more and more girls have found the strength to resent perverts out loud or come to the aid of other girls.
Europeans do not understand
Many people know that girls cannot go to school in tights - only knee-highs and socks. But in schools there is a ban on bright hair color. Does this seem completely normal? But for a Japanese, bright is even an ordinary light brown, and there is a case when a high school student was abused at school by teachers, despite the fact that she proved that light brown is her natural hair color. You can't be so provocative! Immediately repaint in black!
It's a shame to ask for help, no matter how desperately you need it, not to shave your hands, not to have time to say hello before a man or a guy, to receive a gift and not give away about the same amount, to accidentally sweat. But progress does not stand still and a certain amount of freedom appears for girls. For example, it is no longer a shame to get married after twenty-five years.
Not only Japanese women were pursued by prohibitions. For example, in Europe young ladies were forbidden yellow dresses and taught not to blush.
