@Shelly_PMM I imagine that the teacher wanted to tell you that you have to deal with many difficult problems without any instructions in your life. However, even if this was true, that teacher was still terrible.
@Reika_1110 I think that teachers don't know another way but only strictly controlling students because they were educated in this way. Students who are now educated in this way will be similar adults in the future. I'm very pessimistic about Japan's future...
@nana_PMM I think watching movies or listening music are good for studying English, because you can learn English phrases with enjoying them. My mother loved "Don't let me be misunderstood" and played it repeatedly, so I could learn the phrase, "let ~ (verb)".
Do you know "cryonics"? Cryonics is storage of freezed human body for resurrections in the future. Some people use this technology with hope that they will be revived with super high level technology someday. Do you want to use cryonics after your death? and why?
@gewksol Yes. American culture has greater power than other's. Asian culture is affected in many ways and some cultures are going to die. We maybe have to protect them to keep our cultural diversity.
@kazumwatanEddie Based on the average lifetime wage in Japan, women's income is 50~70 million yen lower than men's. I think "women only offer" comes from this situation. If we want gender fairness in movie theatres, we have to establish gender fairness in society first.
@Yuta53698284 It might be true. If there were only one language, we could communicate each other easier. In addition, we wouldn't spend time to learn other languages. However, it would also cause the death of many cultures. I think improving automatic translation technology is the better way.
@Shutaro05665242 I think the reason is that Japanese anime and manga industry has a solid large market in Japan. They can make many products constantly because of that. More products they make, more possibility for international hits they get.
@Luna_in_ur_area No. I don't have TikTok. I don't like other social networking services, not only TikTok. However, maybe I should challenge these services for catching up the recent pop-culture.
Nowadays, we enjoy pop culture through a variety of medias such as TV, Radio, YouTube, Netflix, TikTok, Instagram, etc. Which is your favorite one? and Why?
In my case, I like listening to conversations as a white noise when I do something, so, I like radio.
@Shelly_PMM I'm worried about that their body shapes are very skinny like fashion models and people think "we should be like them". These thoughts easily cause eating disorders. I hope that their appearances have more diversity and empower people's self-esteem about their own body shape.
@Yuta53698284 I can't say no. Any kind of arts can affect people's behavior. Otherwise nobody would be moved by arts or spend money for them. Of course, people's behavior is affected by a lot of factors and there is no solid evidence for that hip hop encourages bad behavior.
