She's alright I guess. Dumb, huge boobs, whatever. This kind of girl fits more in Japan than most of us.
Who's ever seen a video of nest0r or Aijin, right? I mean we all express ourselves differently, and this shit is not the kind of pop culture I consider especially harmful, so let the poor girl go (you snobs
). And it's only fake boobs I find disgusting.
Why huge breast are worshipped isn't a mystery, but in the case of manga, I'll guess it's because the mangaka have all a very problematic sexuality, correlated with the fact there is a crawling hate of the body feeling in Japanese culture that makes one fantasies on unreal things (like agravitational boobs or shemales).
But that's just my guess of course.

IceCream Wrote:um... she made a video of her tits while doing pushups.I would just like to point out that 95% of moderately in shape western girls own/wear clothes exactly like her's, and they show just as much cleavage per percentage of the actual boobs that they have when they do. I mean it's not like she is wearing some shirt with a V-cut to the belly button, or a string bikini with cups barely big enough to cover her nipples. She's wearing the same shirt that every girl I know owns, and that you can pick up at any GAP/Express store across America. And let's not lie to ourselves. Most girls try to bring out their appealing physical features, and in fact spend plenty of time and money doing so. In fact I'm willing to bet almost every Western girl out there has at least one bra designed to make their boobs look better in certain clothes, let alone the money put into makeup, hair, etc.
what would your grandmother have to say about that?
Yes this girl could very well be some super slut, but in the internet world she's near the bottom of the "girls in offensive/revealing clothes" scale. If she can generate a zillion views + google ad sense revenue from wearing a shirt that 90% of girls in the western world own then hell, more power to her.

Anyway I'd say tasteless American. She is not a shining example of an American university student. Now hopefully this post will fade into obscurity. Sorry for sullying the lounge with this trite topic.
liosama Wrote:ugly bitchAnyway, to get back on boob-size topic, I was called a homosexual for preferring flatter boobs over huge ones. I think there is something wrong with modern thought when it comes to boob size, porn and anime have socially reconstructed the modern male brain, in a bad way. Each to their own I guess.

But to my knowledge, Japan and U.S.A. are the two countries on the planet where the trashy kawai slutty girl vibe is the most (and over) valuated. Okay let's extend that to all the English speaking countries. I mean it's different in Europe, even if under the influence of American culture, you see some of this girls, but it's not just the same. Globalization, here we come. Yay!
It's okay though, any side-effect is probably temporary.

Ironic how this so-callled "ugly b--ch" has coaxed out the ugliness inside many of the members here.
Hannah Minx 花°ミンクス - JWOW - Asriel - 2010-09-07
Her uglyness and boobs are something that I really don't care about. Kind of the same as everyone else...
But it's her かわいい！！！ screaming, 大好き-ing everything personality that I dislike. She talks about how in Japan, EVERYTHING is cute, and they even put smiley faces on OFFICIAL GOVERNMENT PAPERS...
I've never seen anything like that on my official papers. And saying that the reason they do it is because it's a carryover from Shintoism? I don't care if it's true or not, I'm pretty sure nobody goes around thinking "my bento has a face because there's a kami inside!"
And then there's the 'glorifying the otaku' that always comes up. She's propagating the myth that Japan is some magical happy land where everything is cute, sacred, and just oh so much better than America. Oh, and did I mention how everything is かわいい?
Hannah Minx 花°ミンクス - JWOW - liosama - 2010-09-07
Jimmy, when I call her an ugly bitch I mean to say that the term encapsulates everything. Her personality included. She looks like an attention seeking bitch, I do not like such women. Though I won't lie, she's fat and tries to show off her breasts excessively, I can't stand being around such people, women more-so than men. On the contrary, I see honesty as a beautiful thing.
And no I haven't heard of melanie jane, but lol.

Find a niche and fill it. If she's making some cash from people willing to give it to her, then gods bless capitalism.
I'll make this pledge though: If I create videos demonstrating exercises while narrating in Japanese, the exercises will be proper (ex: chest to ground push-ups where your hands must leave the floor in the down position), the weights if any will be heavy (150+ kilo deadlift or squats), and/or the intensity will be high.
PS: It's my intention to train physical fitness in Japanese after I retire, but until then please visit http://www.crossfitasia.jp/ for more intense training methods in Japanese.

@EratiK -- I haven't watched ALL of them, but from the few I did, that's what I gathered.
"We're on a densha. See? Japanese denshas are so much better than American denshas"
"かわいい！"
"Otaku culture" -- While, yes, you could hold an argument to say that there is a "culture" of it, but its completely different. American "otaku" use the media and everything as a social festival, to meet new people and have fun. Kind of defeats the "お宅" of the whole thing.
"大好き！"
After watching a few more videos, perhaps she doesn't promote this idea as much as I thought...but she still has an incredibly annoying personality.

You can't turn on the TV without seeing dozens of girls who spend their days in bikini photoshoots for all manner of magazines.
There's also the recent explosion in popularity for AKB48 (LSFW).
I'd say sluttiness gets a fair amount of admiration from the general public.

Those boobs are so disgusting. Just wait a few years, ugh.It's always sickened me (or irritated, I don't know which) that female characters in manga/anime often have anatomy-defying breast sizes of apocalyptic proportion. Why set an ideal sex appeal that simply is physically impossible for the women of the culture in which you live?
manga takes this to an absurd level, of course, but if we are going to get this done, there are more important (and mainstream) publications, that need to hear some protests and demands for realistic beauty.

Sorry, my bad. This kind of thinking may indeed be harmful.
EDIT: wait, sooba is the fish, right? and soba the noodles (or is the fish called saba?)?

I was considering a longer response but opted against it it, since my specific sentiments are just extra din in an already muddy pool. Suffice it to say, Jimmy, activeaero, et al: thank you.

Life just isn't fair! That vixen doesn't have to go down as far as I do for push ups. (Push up bra takes on a whole new purpose.) ;p -groan-
So here's what I took away from this thread. It's okay to do anything that will bring in some cash, unless it:
a) presents an annoyingly inaccurate view of Japan;
b) perpetuates unrealistic ideals of beauty and creates distorted body image problems;
c) results in improper push up technique;
d) perpetuates the 'woman as dumb sexual object stereotype' which harms women indirectly and is linked to further exploitation; or
e) causes us to take pleasure in deriding those who are less enlightened.
I'm afraid I was less clear about the 'slut' references. Not sure if it's moral condemnation of women who express and experience sexuality as they like, or dismay at the excessive negative sexual objectification of women in society/media?
btw Activeaero, I don't think general status quo is an ideal measure of whether certain behaviour is good or not. Besides, it isn't really about the exact cut of her blouse... :-)
Hannah Minx 花°ミンクス - JWOW - dizmox - 2010-09-07
As a guy I don't know why other guys give so much attention to these girls and idols in general. Magibon and that other British one were bad enough.
Looking at you, Japan.
Hannah Minx 花°ミンクス - JWOW - zachandhobbes - 2010-09-07
No offense liosama and icecream, but I don't think she's that fat.
I guess she's a little chubby but not fat.
Just as we don't want to perpetuate negative stereotypes about girls who are not as large breasted, we don't want to say negative stereotypes about girls who are. I don't think they can help it (well, aside from surgery which I think we can all agree is nasty).
Hannah Minx 花°ミンクス - JWOW - thurd - 2010-09-07
Quick call the news!!!
Women don't like it when men give attention to more slutty females!! Some guys are surprisingly not interested in such things, sexy is not their type and generally they are disgusted by such behavior and they also never watched porn....
Whats new again?
Hannah Minx 花°ミンクス - JWOW - kainzero - 2010-09-07
Horrible pushups. She constantly looks down and then back up. You need to maintain a neutral spine.
She also flares her elbows out which will kill your shoulder. Her depth is also lacking.
Hannah Minx 花°ミンクス - JWOW - zachandhobbes - 2010-09-07
Somehow I don't think the pushups were to demonstrate her work out form.
