View Full Version : RapeLay - Japanese "rape simulator" game

You're right, because understanding the female anatomy directly relates to how much experience you have with women.
No, but sex does. You know, sex, the topic that we were discussing. Sex.
Seems like every post you make responding to something I said is stab at me.
Ahem... wasn't the following quote directed at me before I responded?
Good job missing my point though, but I'm not surprised to be honest since you have a reputation for not understanding much.
I'm well aware of how physical and mental stimulation of sex play a part for women but I don't think you're trying to explain or have a conversation about anything in your posts.
And you are? You do remember what you posted right? I responded directly to your misinformed post. The one where you spoke condescendingly about where you thought the "good feelings" came from. Here it is again:
I said considered, but the act of sex is mainly stimulated by genitalia (by that it mean its where all the good feelings comes from, mimi). I was trying to explain that I don't think sex is a fetish because the pleasure of sex (Normal sex that is) comes from the genitalia and not any other type of outside source and since fetishes are "attraction" to non genitalia that would exclude it. But this is just how I'm interpreting everything.

The population of Japan is 98.5% Japanese. The remaining 1.8 million or so is .5% Korean, .5% Chinese and .6% Other. That 720,000 "Other" is your White, Hispanic, African and so on.
1 in 168 or so. In a full 767 Jumbo Jet would only have two people who were not Japanese. The years I was living there, I think I looked it up at being around 25000 American residents. Meaning finding an American living in Japan is 1 every 4,800. So imagine walking around Comic-con and being one of the 30 Americans in attendance. Getting an idea for how damn rare you would feel living in Japan?
So Japanese being in to black? Statistically speaking, it's a slim chance anyone they'd ever meet romantically would be black. Which would make any non-Japanese person a "catch" almost to the point of being singled out and hunted down as a status symbol.

LOL interesting logic.
There are not so many foreigners living in Japan when compared to the West, but in Tokyo I see foreigners of every type every time I step outside. I take it you didn't live in Tokyo? In the countryside foreigners are non-existent!
Being rare doesn't make you wanted though, you've gotta be good-looking too! I mean, have you seen the state of some of the Westerners that live here... I'm sure you were joking anyway :-)
It's a bit of a stereotype that Japanese girls who date foreigners are the ones who can't get Japanese guys. I'd say it's only 75% true though.

My friend Nick is black and has lived in Japan for several years now; Japanese girls like him as well as any other girls seem to. And yet, despite all odds, he ended up dating another American while he's been there! Go figure.
There's a general degree of racial insensitivity based on the stories I've heard from him (and hell, my white friends who've lived there) but nothing along the lines of outright dislike by the general populace.

In a somewhat recent interracial dating and marriage study/survey; Asian male/Black female was indicated as the rarest interracial coupling. That survey was limited to a US residential sample though, IIRC. Population percentages come into play. Most common (by pure numbers) were White male/Asian female and Black male/White female. Black females were indicated as being the most likely of all groups to couple within their own race.
I don't put any stock or value into such things, and you can't really draw any worthwhile conclusions from it. But that is what the survey results found.
Video game fantasy rape scenarios to clinical definitions of fetishism to Japanese interracial dating... There must be a common thread between them all, somewhere. It all seems too related to have none. LOL

I don't know much about Japan, but in Korea, girls who went for foreign guys were usually more independent and less inclined to be dominated by Korean guys, which is usually how dating works in that country. Most of the girls who date foreign guys have also been abroad, can speak English well, and as a result are more intelligent, in addition to knowing what's in store in a relationship with a Korean guy.
However...when it comes to marriage, in my experience a lot of K-girls want to date foreign guys for "experience" but less inclined to tie the knot because of the difficulty of the conservative nature of Korea and its ties to family histories. Not to say that this is always the case, especially in big cities like Seoul, but it's definitely a factor in the southern, more traditional part of the country.
Edit: This has just been my observation, of course. If k8track is reading, he may be able to chime in with his own opinions of Korean girls.

I recently saw a story on CNN about how guys, whether white, black, whatever, who would be generally considered not-so-great looking in the US or Cananda have been going to Japan and finding lots of women swooning over them. I don't know what percentage of those women would be interested in a long-term relationship, but I'm not surprised by the story. Ties back into the whole fetish for exoticism. For those that do enter relationships, I wonder what the percentage is for break-ups resulting from that "exotic" feeling fading away once that person and their culture becomes everyday normal life.

I could write a similar story about the hordes of girls who would be considered good looking in the states and Canada, who go to Asia to teach English and develop a bitchy attitude towards guys because they don't get hit on anymore. In fact, that describes pretty much every single white girl I met in Korea, except for the ones who were into Korean guys.

I love the quote "Americans are rare in Japan. That's why they look good, even if they don't." haha.
Doesn't make much sense to me for white women to be whining about having a hard time getting a date in Asia if they're still only looking for Western men. If you place yourself in a place where you're an extreme minority and aren't willing to give the natives a shot, what do you expect? I'd imagine that the average Western guy would have a harder time finding a Western girl they'd want to date in Asia too. Plus these women need to look at it from a guy's point of view. These young guys stationed in Asia with the military or there for whatever other reason realize that their stay is only temporary, so they're going to want to, ahem, "explore". Once they get back to the West, they have all the time in the world to find a Western girl and settle down (assuming they don't end up bringing back an Asian wife).

LOL at the article. It's about Roppongi - an area in Tokyo where unattractive Japanese girls (usually living in countryside cities neighbouring Tokyo), desperate for attention from the opposite sex, meet foreign men, also desperate for attention from the opposite sex.
When it comes to people, rarity does not equal attractiveness. If that was the case, Tibetan, Samoan, and Fijian men would be swimming in women every time they set foot on American soil!

There might be a few areas where people are more accepting, but in general tattoos are very much looked down upon in Japan since people still mentally link them to the yakuza. Obviously no one is gonna think a white guy is in the yakuza, but most people would probably think you're some kind of hoodlum. But I'm guessing that outlook would be less severe with younger age groups, just as young people in America are more accepting of tattoos than older people.

I had asked my friend about that, actually (I'm a tattoo fan myself). From what he's observed, most people don't seem to care if you have tattoos (visible or otherwise) or not. In fact, they have a tattoo culture just like we do and it thrives more than ours (as an example, look up the magazines Tattoo Burst! and Tattoo Nation).

When I read about the game a long time ago I guess it was one of those things where the girl resists the rape but then ends up liking it towards the end, which is what the Japan rape porn thing is based on, really--the notion that girls WANT to be raped.
It also has to do with women in Japan typically being shy submissive and awkward

If you take a look at that tattoo themed media that comes from Japan and compare it to what comes from the USA, the exact opposite seems more likely and believable. Not to turn this into a lesson about tattoo culture, be you see a many more back pieces and arm pieces as common place tattoo designs. The key word her is 'pieces'.

I'd say that's probably the flip side to it. There's probably some level of rebellion in the youth embracing things that used to be yakuza culture. Like, for a dumb analogy, how baggy pants really caught on in US in the 90s even though it originated from guys in prison not having belts or pants that fit well. Plus, even though it was underground and usually associated with the yakuza, Japan has a long tradition of master tattoo artists that would create huge, intricate designs. The growing acceptance is just allowing what was always there to be visible to a general public, but it's not really reflective of how the average non-tattooed person thinks. But when you look at those that are tattooed, I'd say the Japanese take it more seriously and respect the artistry, while most Americans get tattoos when they're drunk. :P

Sorry, I forgot that some guy living in America would know more about my own society than I do.
Tattoos are everywhere in Japan, you could go to Osaka, Sapporo, Okinawa, etc. and see people with tattoos.
Associating tattoos with Yakuza is crazy, as most Yakuza don't have full-body tattoos. That's more of a 70s / 80s thing.

An American accusing another country's society of being racist?
Isn't that a case of "the pot calling the kettle black"?
I didn't make an accusation. I stated my observation based on the evidence I've been presented via the internet and friends that live in Japan.
Nice job dodging the point again, BTW.

Hmmm, I should clarify my question. I'm not worried about if japanese culture finds tattoos socially acceptable. My main question was if I go to japan am I likely to get some tail while I'm there based solely on being a bald white guy who's heavily tattooed? Cause it works pretty well here. Woman want the whole "bad boy" image, even if only for a short while. Was wondering if it was the same there. Because if so, would make for a fun vacation. =)
Classy. Women are gonna love you. You do realize a great percentage of Japanese women can't speak English, don't you?

you're- contraction; you are: "Just because you hate on Mac users doesn't mean you're cool."
Just means you have more sense than dollars yo.

And everyone knows that the internet is a reliable source of genuine evidence!
I live in Japan, an ex-boyfriend of 12 months was Black, most of my non-Japanese friends are not White. Besides, you'll never really know what racism is because you'll never be able to walk in the shoes of a non-White person.
Of course we have racism in Japan, but it's directed mostly at Chinese and Koreans. It's more prevalent amongst the older generations.

It's a terrible thing when a respectable thread about rape, devolves into an argument involving petty racial bias.

So it's impossible to experience racism if you are white? Cool logic.

That tends to be the case everywhere, America included. People our age generally don't hate because of skin color, particularly in urban and metropolitan areas where there's such diversity a racist person would be stuck hating pretty much everybody.

You are a pro at dodging the point and making an ass out of yourself.

I would take your word for it, but: A. Evidence supplied by people I know in Japan contradicts most of that & B. Accepting your observations as truth would be taking information from the internet seriously. And everyone knows that the internet is a reliable source of genuine evidence, right?

I love how Mimi assumes she knows everything about everyone on this board. Through her amazing psychic abilities, she knows everyone's race, gender, the places they've lived and haven't, the people they've known and haven't, the life experiences they've had and hadn't, so on. Truly astounding, Mimi; if only we all could have your gifts.

Are you saying Mimi is actually a mid-western favored sausage? This concerns me, because I have money riding on Asian Transvestite Jesus.

If the Mimi account is not run by a wurst of the brat variety (or someone similar), I'd be shocked
