.They don't like their own men and it's clear in some of the points made in that post. Last time I said that, some moron tried to say the "Bridge is over" for Black men in Japan, based on his struggles which will have little bearing on what you will experience personally.

How is this so different from American women not liking American men? The difference is that there is no other country that will come to America for American women..because supposedly the belief is that America is the best.
I kind of get sick of tired of hearing statements that local Asian women don't like local Asian guys. I visited Japan and gasp what I saw was Japanese women with japanese guys and I saw single black , white guys walking around roppongii looking lost.
1) American women don't hate/dislike American men, they don't like certain kinds of American men. Usually those who are overtly into things like cars, video games, the internet/computers, Anime, Trekies, Star Wars fans and other "dorky" behavior. They also don't like overweight men, skinny men, short men and unwashed men (long breads).
2) That shrinks the pool of available men given that obsessive behaviors are normalized in America, Comic Con, Anime Expo, etc. In another thread there was complaining that women like men 18-35, over 6'0, college educated, hetrosexual and working a White Collar job. I will add Paul Oyer confirming men that make over $50,000 as well are most popular with American women.
You don't have to posses all of these, but you'll do better if you are the majority of these.
For example, I am over 6'0 tall, I am not overweight, I was once under 35, hetrosexual. But I don't have a degree and never worked White collar jobs.
In other words my success with women is limited by ME not by women. If I made it a point to get a BA and get a great job say working water treatment for LA DWP; Black woman especially I wouldn't be able to keep them off me. I would also have on speed dial, many other women, given LA is an international destination that would include Latin Americans (Brazilians, Argentinians, etc), Asians and various Europeans (German, French, British, Russian, etc).
It seems to me the majority of people posting in this forum are lacking something or are two old to date younger women in America.
Now about local men....
As I understand it, local Japanese women will overwhelmingly date the men they know best. By saying you say Westerners wandering around aimlessly proves nothing really. GSN350JPN was married a Japanese woman, has two children and is African-American from Los Angeles.
Nobody said Japan was a playground for Western men; it is hard to get inside the inner workings of the culture especially if you don't speak any Japanese.
That said, women do like the "exotic" or different, so some will give an opportunity to men they don't see everyday. As I've been saying, the issue is men's mindset, looking for the perfect place to purse women without any interference. No such place exist; especially Japan but that said, there are far more Japanese women interested in Western men than Western men willing to learn Japanese and spend a significant amount of time in-country.
Finally, birth rates are down, marriage rates are way down and while there still couples in Japan clearly, that doesn't mean there aren't problems.
When you walk outside do you see elements of the Financial Crisis? Aren't that obvious unless you're looking for it, right?
