Is this an advert for marrying women like your grandma? Because it's very effective. Most feminists get very offended re: telling the truth about BMI.

It's changing though. China's obesity rate is skyrocketing.

Oh, they are not happy, they just have zero willpower to actually do anything about it.

I get to experience this all the time. I'm currently living in Japan, teaching English. In September I'm going to be moving back to the US. I recently told my adult conversation class this and they started talking about what it'll be like for me after having been in Japan for the last several years. I mentioned that I'll really miss the availability of Japanese food. One of my students, this 74 year old tiny Japanese women, started talking about her youngest son's recent honeymoon in Hawaii.

'I think American women can really eat a lot. My son's hotel had a buffet that they ate everyday. They said that many American women would just eat all day! I don't know if they were American, but he said American. He and his wife shared a pancake dessert, the famous big Hawaiian pancakes. They watched one women eat two! Catnipandmice, are you small in America? In Japan, you are ideal size, but I think you must be very small for being an American.'

It was so hard for me to not burst out laughing.

Once I went on holiday for a couple weeks and went from 110 pounds to about 115. Immediately, my students told me I got fat. Even though no one likes to hear it, it's so refreshing. Everytime I go back to the US, they tell me to not eat too much. All of my co-workers start calorie counting in the summer (they get their waists measured and weighed -- if they're too big they have to go see a doctor).

I'm going to miss Japan.

Enjoy! But I must warn you, the humidity is killer in the summer. Be sure to prepare for that.

For women, shorts/skirts can be as short as you'd like, but upper half is usually very modest (especially if you plan on going to temples\etc). Covered shoulders/no cleavage. A lot of foreign women can get away with dressing less modestly, but you'll get stares and comments from drunken Japanese businessmen.

Sorry for the unsolicited advice! I do hope you have fun.

This is how Americans used to talk in the 70s and 80s.

There was a Japanese language FB group I was in, and this whale foreigner who works in Japan posted to complain about her Japanese co-workers shitlording her. She would be eating her food and they would say "aren't you eating too much"?

My boyfriend's Chinese mother told me one time "You gain[ed] a little weight." loudly in English, in public. I had, maybe 5 pounds. It was the first thing she said to me in the restaurant. It was a greeting (I don't know how to describe it). It wasn't meant as malicious, she just let me know I looked like I gained a few. Fats around us were not pleased and some beast told me in passing I looked beautiful. Next time I saw her, in the same fat infested restaurant, first thing she said was "You skinnier, better than last time." You could hear the galaxy behind us choke on her food after hearing the comment and feel her stare daggers through the meal.

Side note: My boyfriend always says "If it is in English it is shitlording, if it is in Chinese it is the truth." Not exactly sure what it means but he says it a lot.

I guess what he means is that we have created a label for fatshaming, when in China it's a natural thing to do.

Asian shitlording is the best shitlording. Especially if they don't know much English.

"You fat. Go to gym." Fucking lol.
