Even though we live in the information age, not everyone can understand Russian nature. Some foreigners still think in stereotypes about Russians. However, in addition to stereotypes, it is impossible not to notice the true depth of the Russian soul. Japan is a friendly country towards us. Many have probably seen crowds of tourists from Japan walking around Red Square with excursions. And surely, passing by, you have often thought about how the Japanese treat the Russians? We have a completely different mentality. And more than that. How do the Japanese feel about Russian girls?
Culture of the Land of the Rising Sun
Japan has a fascinating and diverse culture. On the one hand, the country is immersed in the deepest traditions dating back thousands of years, and on the other, it is a society in a continuous state of rapid change, constantly changing trends and fashions. Technological development is constantly testing and pushing the boundaries, and if anyone is talking about something out of the ordinary, then of course it is in Japan.
Manners are very bigvalue in this country. When meeting, it is customary to bow slightly to each other, but if you go into a Japanese store, you do not have to bow in response to the greeting of the staff, they are well aware that you have come to shop, and if you greet everyone, you will spend too much time on it. It is not customary to talk on the subway. Also, they do not give way to the elderly and the disabled, for the simple reason that no one ever occupies them.
Touching each other is indecent: the Japanese are very respectful of personal space. And kissing in public places is even more forbidden. They are embarrassed to show money in public, so if they are handed over, they are wrapped in a piece of paper. At the checkout, they just put it on a tray.
The Japanese are really workaholics. According to the rules of etiquette, everyone consistently processes for two or three hours, or even more.
With gifts, they have a completely different situation than we do. It is not customary to deploy them in front of everyone, this is a sign of greed and impatience.
Despite the fact that this is a we althy country, you do not distinguish a successful businessman from a hard worker from a factory. It is not customary for them to boast of prosperity.
Now it becomes clear that the Japanese respect personal space better than Russians.
Japanese men
It often happens in Japan to observe such a cultural phenomenon as the denial of a compliment. If a Japanese man plays an excellent guitar and is praised by a friend or musician, he will refuse the compliment. It's all about social status. Compliments fromequals are not accepted. However, if the social status of the one who praised is lower, the compliment resonates.
Workaholism, as a rule, manifests itself in Japanese men. Due to busy schedules, capsule hotels have appeared, created exclusively for sleep. It is completely normal to neglect family or love relationships for the sake of work.
Men of the Land of the Rising Sun are very modest and indecisive, which sometimes prevents them from starting relationships. Despite this, they are polite, responsible and attentive.
Japanese girls
They are usually unable to stand up for themselves and express their opinions, instead they endure everything silently and in themselves. In society, this is especially noticeable, since they will never defend their position.
For example, if it turns out that a guy is cheating on a girl, she will not quarrel with him, but will try to be better than her rival. If they laugh at her, or, worse, start mocking her, she will apologize for causing these feelings in the offender. Of course, all this happens to a reasonable limit, but each person has his own. Russians, for example, are not so patient.
Girls of the Land of the Rising Sun try to avoid conflicts as much as possible. For example, if a girl is wearing a dress that does not suit her, her friend will still say that she is pretty cute.
However, progress does not stand still and, just as samurai gradually sunk into oblivion in Japan, the submissive role of a woman is also receding. Career is now more interesting for them.
Evaluatingthe difference between our cultures, you can understand how the Japanese treat Russians.
Russian culture
One of the most striking features is, of course, simplicity. In ancient times, Slavic houses were often plundered and completely destroyed, so life issues are greatly simplified. We have really kind and open people. "And they will feed you, and give you drink, and put you to bed" - this is the well-known Russian hospitality, one of the manifestations of the broad Russian soul.
Compassion and mercy are taught from childhood, as well as helping those in need, not to create an image or status, but because it is conscience.
The Russian family is in the first place, it is respect for parents and love for children. However, this sometimes results in what is called nepotism.
The difficulties of the socialist past, coupled with the current state of affairs and the harsh climate, hardened the people, but left a certain gloom on their faces. However, with friends, the breadth of the Russian soul is always visible.
Russian men
If they do something, it must be from the heart. As a rule, economic and household. It is believed that a man should do something around the house. They work hard, but most often they don't try to overdo it.
Russian men can be very generous and gallant. And speaking of dates, it is customary for them to pay for a girl in a restaurant, unlike foreigners.
They love holidays very much and try not to miss any.
Russiansgirls
Very neat, they spend a lot of time caring for their appearance, as well as going shopping. As a rule, they spend a lot of money on buying clothes, shoes and bags. The fact is that it is important for Russian women to look attractive and spectacular.
Love communication. Have a large number of girlfriends with whom they discuss their life problems when they meet, tell stories, give advice, share the latest events.
Most of them know how to cook well, and the houses are clean, because it is important for them to take care of someone.
They have a strong character, it is not for nothing that they say about them: "And he will stop a galloping horse, and enter a burning hut." This phrase means that they will do everything they can for their loved ones. And, perhaps because of the harsh climate, Russian women are hardened and morally strong. But what do the Japanese think of Russians?
Relationships
This summer was an important event for the whole world. The FIFA World Cup, in which Russia was visited by many foreigners. Including from Japan. And now many are interested in how the Japanese treat the Russians. Based on their culture, they draw their own conclusions.
Russians are very emotional, disorganized, but brave - that's what the Japanese say about Russians. Silent and stern people who rarely smile, perhaps due to the climate.
They think that Russians don't like to work, and if they do, they work very little. They are also surprised that there are sick leaveor simply, holidays enjoyed in Russia.
They don't quite understand why there are so many skyscrapers, because there is a lot of land around.
If a Japanese sees a Russian walking around, he won't forget it. The craving for parties and drinking, in their opinion, is colossal in Russia.
At the same time, they are sure that Russian people are strong and with soul: you can feel it.
Attitude towards women
Russian women are considered to be very beautiful. All. Without exception. If you are in doubt, don't doubt. The European type is considered ideal for them. Long legs, volume, figure represent a big difference with the proportions of Japanese women.
Especially the cut of the eyes. No wonder all anime draw with big eyes. Many Japanese women agree to undergo surgery to reshape their eyes.
By the way, it is prestigious for them to have a girlfriend or wife of European appearance. I like the character of Russian women, because, in their opinion, they are independent, unlike Japanese women.
Japanese women are very reserved and reserved and never say what's on their mind. In this regard, the openness and sociability of Russian girls strikes the Japanese on the spot. Especially if they do not like something, they speak directly, that is, it is immediately clear what they want. Men from the Land of the Rising Sun like that Russian women always take care of themselves. Each of the simplest walks with them is like an exit to high society. The Japanese treat Russian women as the standard of beauty.
