My Japanese wife came to America to work and possibly to find a husband. She was late 30s and wanted to be married. I was divorced and 60. I was overjoyed that age was not an issue for her. She did not want children and wanted a man that was well off enough to finance her moving to the states. It was a win-win situation because we were very compatible and really had fun together. Fortunately, I’m in good health and can match her energy quite well. We have been married 14 happy years🤗
@@Sage16226 if it was that personal he would had cut out the footage in editing, save himself the chagrin. Besides it is Japan, he can always find a smoking hot, willing 16 year old if that is his thing(if that is the legal age). This was just genuinely an interview.
I've watched a few of your videos over the last few days as they've appeared on my recommended. I like that you change your questions based on their answers and you can think quickly about what to say next. You have good social skills and it makes for a really interesting interview!

Japan's age of consent is a bit more complicated. In Japan, in addition to the law, each prefecture has its own ordinance which is called "青少年保護育成条例". According to that ordinance, the age of consent in Japan is set at 18 years old. The only place this ordinance doesn't apply is on uninhabited islands. Therefore, although the age of consent has been raised to 16 by law, it is illegal to have relations with a person under 18 in Japan anyway, so it does not really matter. The Western media often reports news about the age of consent in Japan, but most of them are just clickbait.
That’s very interesting, I wasn’t at all aware of that. I’ve been to Japan many times, but had a reason to ask the Japanese I know about it.. Underaged forced sex probably isn’t much of a problem on uninhabited islands, so is there some other function the national age limit serves? Perhaps there’s a difference in the severity of punishment? I surprised to learn about this, but then again not surprised since as you pointed out, the news media just wants clickbait. Thanks for sharing,
@@DaveEtchells I think it's just harder (takes longer time) to pass national laws, so likely the national law will be passed in the future. Speaking of which, in south korea the age of consent was 13 too before 2020 and it's now 20.
@@notuxnobux Thanks for the reply. (Man, _13_ seems beyond crazy by any modern standards. In the more distant past, I wonder how many 13 year olds ended up “consenting” to marriages? 😮
Most Japanese girls don't really date 40-60s older men. They most likely just slept with them just for money. You rarely see this kind of couple on the street because they all met in the hotel or the mistress's home. I have a few friends did the same thing, but they are all claimed single. No one will honestly tell you their shady side in the interview under the sun.😅
not true...Japanese women date older men all the time...Many of these men are married and these girls date them, like are their girlfriends. You're right they won't say it in interviews but I've seen a few situations where they'll date for yeaaaaaaaars as the side girl. It's not just about money. Older guys are more confident because they have success and they're prob managers or something. So they have a sense of power, so it's easier to approach/date women without fear of rejection. Someone I know was dating this guy since she was 19, she's 36 and the guy's 60. She got pregnant and he left his family and married her.
I'm now casually seeing a Japanese coworker who's 10 years younger and she doesn't mind the difference. I look more like her age though. I think the interview answers tend to be in the socially desired range, especially in the one night stand video. Another Japanse girl had a one night stand with me after breaking up with her bf. She asked me not to tell our mutual friend (my Japanese neighbor). Later I heard she hadn't broken up at all and thus cheated him with me. People are people everywhere, biggest difference being that some cultures allow it to happen more openly.
This is such a fascinating question to ask people from all different cultures and classes. It's deceptively simple a question but the answers are incredibly revealing. I loved this video, entertaining and compelling! 👍💯💯
By experience, I can say the max age range is 10 years. More than that it’s possible but the talk changes drastically, it becomes closer to a papakatsu relationship. I could date younger girls (-20 years gap) and when we started to talk about work, indirectly they asked if I could hire them as part of my staff. I thought it was ‘fair’ but I was not looking for employees, I was only looking for a gf lol so unless you want this kind of relationship, it’s better to stay in the max 10 years gap.
@@MissionSilo papakatsu is the Japanese word for sugar daddy. So they will see you as a rich daddy and not as a partner. It’s possible to carry this kind of relationship in Japan (and of course many other countries) but you have to be rich enough to give everything they want.
@@urbanurban7825 I think it is ok for a 121 year old man to date a 21 year old woman., but he should never marry her. she will take him for all his social security.
My wife is from Japan and she is 12 years older than me. I met her when I was in Japan. We have been married now for more than 30 years. My uncle on the other hand, was 53 and married an 18 year old young lady. They have been together now for 20 years. Age should be carefully considered but if you love each other, then age won't stop you from having a lifetime commitment.
If they got married when she was 18.. how old was she when they met 🤮Uncle is still a creep, and there is a level of power a 53 year old adult has over an 18-year-old that makes it inherently imbalanced due to the power dynamic.
@@SnowClover Normally I would not reply but I will in this case. SHE had the all of the power. Their is no 'power dynamic'. These are simple people, living a simple life. Stop making it sound so complicated. They met on a dating site and he never lied about his age. She lived in another state and chose to meet him. It is not like he could have forced her to tell him where she lived. She knew what he looked like BEFORE they met. She could have said no at any time. She was 18 when they met AND got married. They only dated about three months. I guess it was love at first site. She turned 19 four months after their marriage. I thought he was making a mistake but their marriage has lasted longer than many in my family when both people were very close in age. I am happy for her because I know her family history now. My uncle has been good to her and good for her.
@@tflyfoster3018Did you even read the reply? If you did, then what your response boils down to is this “I get these feelings in this situation and I refuse to consider any other factors which may alter my perceptual frame” God help anyone who ends up with you in a jury. I don’t have a dog in this fight because I’ll only go out with a woman who looks comparable to my age, because I don’t want that thing where people look at a couple in a restaurant and make judgements. I think you have no idea what the dynamics of a relationship are. It’s a bargain, where each person offers the other something in exchange. Everybody wants different things. I agree, on first blush, that relationship sounds highly questionable. But looking at what transpired, I revised my opinion. Read the last 2 sentences of his reply again in order to understand the dynamics of that relationship, and try not to judge everything by your gut emotions. They aren’t always right, and in any case, they don’t constitute a form of argument.
@@tflyfoster3018 So an 18-year-old legal adult isn't smart enough to decide who she wants to marry but can sign a student loan for $100k, join the military or vote? Should we raise the age to vote? Getting ran through by a dozen college F*boys for 4 years is OK but marrying the love of her life and staying married for 20+ years is creepy? Can you give an actual moral argument as to why he's a creep other than it gives you "the ick" ??
I have never once been turned down in Japan, no matter what the age gap was. I am not sure how honest people interviewed were being. Money like everywhere is the main factor.
I stayed in that hotel 12 years ago! That's the Dotonbori Hotel! They were making food for visitors in the lobby when I went. It was an Osaka speciality made from buckwheat with egg, chicken and a shiso leaf
Any adult over 18 can date or hookup with any adult over 18, sometimes things can get a little weird but that's nobody's business, at 18 you can do far "worse" things than consent to dating an old guy, if you catch my meaning. A lot of times money is involved, because that's just the nature of women, but so long as it is mutually beneficial I see no problem.
I'm 30, good looking, good financially, kind/considerate, etc yet I have never had a serious relationship. It makes me feel like I'm doing something wrong Doesn't help that I travel all the time and it makes creating longer term connections nearly impossible unless she wants to escape with me.
That could be the main issue…. that you’re not rooted in 1 location to build deep connections with the locals. Granted you could meet another traveler such as yourself if you know where to look. 😉 I wish you the best sir!
Guys and gals, you do understand these are hand picked interviews? There are plenty of people who may like older partners, but also incredible amount of younger women who really dislike much older guys and would rather find someone handsome around their age go out and experience life in person, not through youtube. Videos like these should be for entertainment only
@timsohn7057 I have heard from a South Korean native now living here in the US in upstate NY, that it all depends on the individuals but I have this friend and she is bisexual, not to air her dirty laundry, but she has said that she gets more younger girls flirting with her and more older men, both Asian and White, flirting with her. It'd be interesting to see what she thinks about these interviews. Japan and SK aren't too far apart in thoughts on many things.
@@zaynes5094 Japan and SK have similarities but their differences also run very deep. Don’t let their proximities fool you. I mean look at the diff between France and Italy.
This video is designed to provide a genuine insight into the opinions, culture and values of a nation, it's not simple entertainment but intended as semi educational, though they are likely cherry picked, that's certainly true, I would prefer if there were arguments both for and against this arrangement, but it's not a debate. Personally I find this interesting, since as a 30yo, I would be open to a situationship with an 18yo, but I'm aware money would most likely be involved. For dating she'd have to be between 23 and a couple years older than me, I perhaps lean a little younger just because of my lifestyle, there probably aren't many women my age who likes to travel frequently and plays a lot of video games lol. Also, and I acknowledge they're consenting adults almost everywhere, but 16 is too young for me, that extra two years is important for finding oneself and becoming a confident adult.
It's important for men to realize your value is an upward climb, most likely you'll have your shxt together from your mid 30s to 40s if you weren't playing around, and you still have a chance to bag 20 year olds.
@@soullessnight6539Long as she is an ADULT, what’s the problem? Are you against racism and sexism? Then why is ageism ok with you? Btw you’re confusing morality with ethics. Not surprising at all coming from an illogical emotional feminist like you.
I wouldn’t use the word “bag” if you’re serious about a relationship, but what you say is completely true. Men have to work for and prove our value, while women consider themselves to have inherent value just for being born as a woman. No woman would seriously consider dating and marrying a man with no income or job that can support a family, whereas a man doesn’t care if a woman has no income or job for dating or marriage.
The problem of the age gap is mainly just a myth. It depends on the personality. Young and old can become very good friends based on common interests, compatibility and mutual respect. Everything else should just work out accordingly.
@@FransceneJK98 Actually, I agree with you. 16 years old is too young to even date with anyone. What I meant was anyone who is 18 or over. However, in some countries, it is alright for a 16 year old to date someone older.
I was in a bar with a friend, he pointed out a couple at the other end of the bar. My friend asked "how old do you think the girl is?" I guessed 'Mid 20's?' my friend nodded "Yup, she's 27" he then nodded towards her partner "What about him?" I worked out from my friends question that there was an age disparity and the guy looked mid 30's so I guessed high '40? maybe 45?' It turned out he was in his late 60's - he had a physique that would shame a guy in his 20's and not a wrinkle or grey hair in sight.
Maybe YOU can suggest an "English-speaking friendly" Japanese dating site -- and/or a Korean dating site -- for people who are interested in contacting other people for a serious relationship?? (Thanks!....) 🤜🤛
Preferences can change during our lives. When I was younger, I much preferred a little older guy. Now, in my forties, I would much prefer younger. But most of it, it depends on the person and compatibilities.
To all the guys out there, here is just another example of women can switch on you anytime, no matter what you do for her and at what stage of your life. And if they have the tools and the incentive to do so, they will do it. Stop believing the "ride or die" girl fairy tale

@ruleoftwo6174 Sorry, but I really don't agree at all. Yes, my preference has changed. But I am really committed to a relationship. It is not me who wanted to split up with my her who was older. My preferences changed some years after the separation. So no, it is note an example, as you say. It just seems you had a painful experience. Can happen to anyone men or women. People change with time, and indeed for a lot of them lifetime relationship is not something they want to do. On one part it is good to avoid people being unhappy for the rest of their life. On other side I noticed that many even tried to work it out and work on the issues.
Nice Osaka! I spent so much time in the Cafe near the water fountain. All Day Coffee. So many good memories there. Also Hankyu mens department store. Love and miss shopping there.
I'd love to find love in Japan...But I hear so much about the cheating culture there..I don't know if I believe they are being true....I did get a forture when I was in Japan which said I'd get a proposal..But sadly it didn't happen before I had to leave...Plus many are not looking for long term relationships in Japan from what I have heard..Where as I would be....I lost my partner to cancer after 24 years together in 2017..And I have been alone since..But as I am now a middle aged man, ugly and have nothing going for me..I am doomed to be alone for the rest of my life...Sucks being me...But I do love Japan..wish to return one day...One last thing...I can imagine many who might be looking for a relationships with foreigners..are doing so in the hope of the leaving the country..rather than for love...Which is sad.
I'm sorry you experienced such a loss. I'm from England, have lived in Spain, and currently in Denmark, and believe me, the amount of cheating is no better or worse in these countries than Japan. It just seems to be more of a topic there. I hope you can find the self esteem, and positive sides of your personality to move on into a better future, and feel less doomed. Life can suck, but it can also throw some beautiful moments when you least expect them. I hope you can go out and find them. Best Wishes
A lot of people in the comments agreeing with love has no age limit… Im sorry but the guy at 58 saying he’d date a 16 year old is insane, and he’d probably go lower if it was allowed… Even at 23 i would never even think of dating someone that was 16, at what point is the line drawn between “love has no age” and straight up pedophilia?!
maybe you should draw the line of how developed the person is. People are hitting puberty MUCH earlier. A 16 year old (especially female) is at the end or near the end of her puberty.
@@GameFuMaster I just can’t agree with this… If i ever have a daughter theres no way i would be okay with her at 16 dating anyone over 20 and even 20 is pushing it. Once shes 20 i suppose i would be a bit more open to a larger age gap but anything over 10 years is still very weird to me
I’ve always felt the most important thing is that both people feel the same age and can understand each other and adapt to each other well. Huge age gaps make that difficult, but not impossible. Once I reached mid 30’s, my priorities shifted and if I were single again it would be much more difficult to date someone in their early 20’s, but there are definitely exceptions, people with similar values, focus and sense of humor.
The last girl says it all with pretty much what most girls are thinking here in Japan. One of the reasons I feel that marriage is on a decline here in Japan is that men at her age and even my age at 29 no longer have a difference in pay gap. So women expect men to earn more or they feel they need to either do better themselves or dump the guy. It's sad because in the end it's a team effort and who earns more money is rather irrelevant and shouldn't dictate who gets more control or whatever. Whomever is better at something should just do their part, two halves make a whole. I earn less than my wife whom is the same age and she says the same thing. It's not something I can control because it doesn't matter anymore how much you are ganbatteiru by working late or devoting to your company anymore, changing jobs does increase pay but it is hard to get a raise afterwards, and skilling up won't see good returns for at least a couple of years. The salary system in Japan is broken and being stuck in a corporate world wouldn't give you the same benefits as those in the past. It's time women in Japan need to learn that we BOTH need to earn money if we want kids.
*I’m 69/35/70* Great subject! How about the rest of you? How old are you and what’s your spread? It’s irrelevant because I’m happily married, but I’m 69, would go as low as maybe 35 but no higher than 70. IMHO, most people don’t settle into who they really are until 35-40. On the older end, not so much; I find hanging out with people my age _really_ boring 😕 (This was a really great interview, the interviewer had a good sense of humor and asked good follow-up questions. I liked the length, with so many people being interviewed, seeing so many perspectives.)
From what I’m told from friends in Japan, the age limit is 16 was meant for people that were dating around their age. Like a 16 year old dating an 18 or 19 year in current relationship. Not for a 30, 40 or 50s exploiting a teenager. But then again I’m just going off what friends from Japan & my wife tell me.
The interesting thing is that even though someone says that they will never date, go out, be a couple or even marry someone much older, etc., things can change. They might meet someone that they really get along with, and like their personality so much, etc. Sometimes they say “I’ll never go out with someone 5 years older than me. But then you see them engaged to someone 10 years older then you ask them, what happened?” To their reply: he/she is so kind and amazing, I never expected to find someone like him/her, so I don’t mind his/her age. The thing is they judge at the beginning and depending someone age they put a wall in front of them towards that person, but if age is not talked about and the relationship flourishes, those previous self boundaries about age are pushed aside. It’s like when you say “I’ll never read that book, it’s gross, or useless, not interesting at all, etc, but you have only seen the cover and title/name. But later you find that book without cover and out of curiosity start to read then you like it so much than even if half-way you realize it’s title/name it won’t change that fact that you like it and want to finish it. Also you might ask those same people 5 or 10 years from now the same question and the answers might be completely different. And in a country where they are not completely open and honest with their answers (tatemae), those same answers might differ greatly behind the camera.
are you sure "leeway" is the accurate translation into English? Or would "more scope" be more accurate? Scope - definition n. 1. The range of one's perceptions, thoughts, or actions:
I'm almost 80 (I look much younger than my age) and my wife is 35. We have been together going on six years. We treat each other equally and age never comes into question. It's no different for me when I first married at age 22. Since we are like two peas in a pod, no one in our families or friends makes it an issue. BTW: Age difference in younger peeps, not so much. But, divorced/separated and older don't dwell on age so much.
My fiance is 37 and I am 27. I honestly find older guys especially if they are Japanese much more attractive. No, it wasn’t for money, we are coworkers that roughly get the same salary and both of us are very low maintenance. My argument is this, Japanese people due to living significantly longer than most of the world, do not get the “matured look” until their late 30s-40s and look really young or boyish until those ages which I personally am not very big on. I also really like the adult worldview, life experience and the fatherly protective attitude of guys this age and therefore feel much more attracted to them.
I think it's because older men tend to be seen more as romantic interest and get more attention because they're financially more stable so in turn they also become more confident.
Yes!!! I also only like much older men like that man in the video and older! You westerners need to stop push your craz y ish on every culture! I agree with a lot of the Japanese people!
How old are you and whats the oldest guy you dated or could date? I have no age limit as long as I’m attracted. I could go for much younger or even older women. As an American I’m pretty open minded about such things.
It is worth pointing out that Japanese people actually have a smaller age gap at first marriage than Americans do. But the 58 year old was creepy, come on.
When I was younger I really liked older guys. Now that I am older, I prefer younger guys... I think it is because I have a young attitude, and don't have much in common with old farts!! Lol In Japan, my boyfriend was 13yrs younger than me...but the communication was the issue rather than age. He didn't speak English, and my Japanese was beginner level. To this day I still love and miss him so much...he was an amazing guy😢
Here in the UK once I reached my 30's I suddenly had a LOT of attention from college age girls even had a few that were so forward if I let them down that they pretty much came out and told me they would sleep with me as if it would change my mind. I mean I admit I am very flattered when young often stunning girls desire me but I feel like a creep if I dated them even having a fling, I would even feel creepy if I was around 30 and they were say 19 but I'd say it was possible. These days now I am late 30's I'd possibly date a 20/21 year old but I doubt it as I feel the life gap not necessarily purely age is too big unless that 20/21 year old grew up fast i.e had experiences in their life before their time that matured them. I'd more likely go for a woman around 24/25.
When I was 37, I had a GF who's 22. I can't believe young girls still like me. LOL Then I have been with a 19 year old girl.. We dated for a year until she turned into a feminist and did facial reconstruction and got some tattoos.. I don't get her she turned goo-gogo gaga... LOL But anyways, I am glad to know that there are girls who still like me despite my age. Because I like young girls.. 18 to 26.. something like that.. because they are fun and has bubbly personality and I also feel young but with freedom.. Unlike older girls.. I feel they already have an attitude and kinda sick of life.

That guy in his late 50s saying he’d consider a 16 year old. I’m a similar age and would feel weird with anyone younger than 40 and even then I’d be having doubts.
It depends on the individual and the law. I believe if she's young enough to be your daughter then too young. So 16 years younger. If "she's" in her late 20's and "pursuing" someone that's 20 plus years older that's ok too. I say that because if it was my daughter I would only be ok with it if he loves her and wants to start a family with her and therefore leave her everything too. He can't be a bum but damn near a high value.
Average age at first marriage in Japan is 29.5 for women, 31 for men - a 1.5 year age gap. All statistics show women are attracted to men who are UP TO 5 years older than themselves. It's why the age gap tends to be 2 years or less in all developed countries. Some people will cry and gnash their teeth but obviously young women like young men. "Older" man for them is, one again, up to about 5 years. The 10 year age gaps are more common when a woman is already over 30 and struggling to find someone.
A friend of mine in his mid fifties dated someone in their 20s for around 10 years. He had a stroke and was paralysed and had garbled communication and she left him after about 6 months. I guess she wanted to have a life.
Age is only a measure of our biological decline and not our maturity. There is a legal age limit to start intimate sexual relationships with a minor to protect their personal space to mature healthy and their personality to develop freely. Although it is no assurance that they will not be faced with a manipulative parent who tries to push the person into things otherwise he/she wouldn't. So, in general, I think it is healthy to be in a relationship with an older person as you will learn a lot otherwise you would waste your time by experiencing it, so our social development evolvement could reach a higher degree thanks to those organically observing information and maturity through having in a relationship with an older individual. How old is up to you I think but has nothing to do with regulations or else, it is what it is. It is also equally important for older people to learn how to be young again and we human beings tend to forget what life is about, so we mature to the point where we become super forged/matured which is unhealthy at some point. We can become lifeless or too material and so it is the main trigger to psychological diseases, like psychopathy and similar unwanted personal decline.
Nah not more than 10 Years younger or older than me (45). That's my Age-Range that i'm looking for. I once dated an 18 Year old Woman when i was 32 and it went horribly wrong. I don't need that anymore. I either find someone who's 10 Years younger or older than me. Otherwise i'll keep looking. Or stay Single 'till the End of my Life, which to be honest wouldn't be sooo bad. Just my two Cents...
LOL, the 58yr old who said he would date a 16yr old if given a chance would have trended and shamed in South Africa for saying such, it shows we live in different worlds.

@@DaveEtchells I think it's just harder (takes longer time) to pass national laws, so likely the national law will be passed in the future. Speaking of which, in south korea the age of consent was 13 too before 2020 and it's now 20.
@@notuxnobux Thanks for the reply. (Man, _13_ seems beyond crazy by any modern standards. In the more distant past, I wonder how many 13 year olds ended up “consenting” to marriages? 😮
Most Japanese girls don't really date 40-60s older men. They most likely just slept with them just for money. You rarely see this kind of couple on the street because they all met in the hotel or the mistress's home. I have a few friends did the same thing, but they are all claimed single. No one will honestly tell you their shady side in the interview under the sun.😅
That's exactly what I want, young girls sleeping with me for money
Cope
They just get paid
not true...Japanese women date older men all the time...Many of these men are married and these girls date them, like are their girlfriends. You're right they won't say it in interviews but I've seen a few situations where they'll date for yeaaaaaaaars as the side girl. It's not just about money. Older guys are more confident because they have success and they're prob managers or something. So they have a sense of power, so it's easier to approach/date women without fear of rejection. Someone I know was dating this guy since she was 19, she's 36 and the guy's 60. She got pregnant and he left his family and married her.
Interesting, I didn't realize you are Japanese.
3:09 oh god she totally thinks you are describing YOURSELF 🤣

He probably IS. A little "interviewers trick" -- I suspect!
I'm 56 and my Japanese wife is 41. We met 12 years ago. Age was never an issue.
You are not old
Yup, I'm 53 and my missus is 38. We seem to be ok. together for 13 years.
The age gap matters a lot less after mid 20's imo. At least your brain is fully formed at that point and are much less prone to manipulation.

I'm now casually seeing a Japanese coworker who's 10 years younger and she doesn't mind the difference. I look more like her age though. I think the interview answers tend to be in the socially desired range, especially in the one night stand video. Another Japanse girl had a one night stand with me after breaking up with her bf. She asked me not to tell our mutual friend (my Japanese neighbor). Later I heard she hadn't broken up at all and thus cheated him with me. People are people everywhere, biggest difference being that some cultures allow it to happen more openly.
Japan has one of the biggest porn "industries" in the world, you *didn't* expect her to be a hoe?
This is such a fascinating question to ask people from all different cultures and classes. It's deceptively simple a question but the answers are incredibly revealing. I loved this video, entertaining and compelling! 👍💯💯
Love the topic. Getting better every time. Your probing follow up questions are masterful, too.

If it's just dating attraction is the main thing, but marriage in japan it's more like a contract, nothing romantic about it.
I just stayed in Japan For 6 weeks. Already missing it. Wonderful country and people. Back in October
I’ve dated 12 years younger girls and 10 years older women. Age never mattered to me, just that we were attracted to each other.

@@bishop51807 very concerning indeed. what is your age @timmyg831 ?
What matters if they truly love each other...❤
By experience, I can say the max age range is 10 years. More than that it’s possible but the talk changes drastically, it becomes closer to a papakatsu relationship. I could date younger girls (-20 years gap) and when we started to talk about work, indirectly they asked if I could hire them as part of my staff. I thought it was ‘fair’ but I was not looking for employees, I was only looking for a gf lol so unless you want this kind of relationship, it’s better to stay in the max 10 years gap.
A what relationship?
@@MissionSilo papakatsu is the Japanese word for sugar daddy. So they will see you as a rich daddy and not as a partner. It’s possible to carry this kind of relationship in Japan (and of course many other countries) but you have to be rich enough to give everything they want.
The golden rule is to divide your age by two and add 7.
what are thoughts on 100 year age gap ?
@@urbanurban7825 I think it is ok for a 121 year old man to date a 21 year old woman., but he should never marry her. she will take him for all his social security.
My wife is from Japan and she is 12 years older than me. I met her when I was in Japan. We have been married now for more than 30 years. My uncle on the other hand, was 53 and married an 18 year old young lady. They have been together now for 20 years. Age should be carefully considered but if you love each other, then age won't stop you from having a lifetime commitment.
If they got married when she was 18.. how old was she when they met 🤮Uncle is still a creep, and there is a level of power a 53 year old adult has over an 18-year-old that makes it inherently imbalanced due to the power dynamic.
@@SnowClover Normally I would not reply but I will in this case. SHE had the all of the power. Their is no 'power dynamic'. These are simple people, living a simple life. Stop making it sound so complicated. They met on a dating site and he never lied about his age. She lived in another state and chose to meet him. It is not like he could have forced her to tell him where she lived. She knew what he looked like BEFORE they met. She could have said no at any time. She was 18 when they met AND got married. They only dated about three months. I guess it was love at first site. She turned 19 four months after their marriage. I thought he was making a mistake but their marriage has lasted longer than many in my family when both people were very close in age. I am happy for her because I know her family history now. My uncle has been good to her and good for her.

@@tflyfoster3018Did you even read the reply? If you did, then what your response boils down to is this “I get these feelings in this situation and I refuse to consider any other factors which may alter my perceptual frame”
God help anyone who ends up with you in a jury.
I don’t have a dog in this fight because I’ll only go out with a woman who looks comparable to my age, because I don’t want that thing where people look at a couple in a restaurant and make judgements.
I think you have no idea what the dynamics of a relationship are. It’s a bargain, where each person offers the other something in exchange. Everybody wants different things.
I agree, on first blush, that relationship sounds highly questionable. But looking at what transpired, I revised my opinion.
Read the last 2 sentences of his reply again in order to understand the dynamics of that relationship, and try not to judge everything by your gut emotions. They aren’t always right, and in any case, they don’t constitute a form of argument.
@@tflyfoster3018 So an 18-year-old legal adult isn't smart enough to decide who she wants to marry but can sign a student loan for $100k, join the military or vote? Should we raise the age to vote? Getting ran through by a dozen college F*boys for 4 years is OK but marrying the love of her life and staying married for 20+ years is creepy? Can you give an actual moral argument as to why he's a creep other than it gives you "the ick" ??
I have never once been turned down in Japan, no matter what the age gap was. I am not sure how honest people interviewed were being. Money like everywhere is the main factor.
6:23 The way they show their age with their fingers is too cute!
I stayed in that hotel 12 years ago! That's the Dotonbori Hotel! They were making food for visitors in the lobby when I went. It was an Osaka speciality made from buckwheat with egg, chicken and a shiso leaf
Bro the guy with sunglasses looks so cool 🤣
Mature way of thinking too, as a guy I totally agree with him.
Any adult over 18 can date or hookup with any adult over 18, sometimes things can get a little weird but that's nobody's business, at 18 you can do far "worse" things than consent to dating an old guy, if you catch my meaning. A lot of times money is involved, because that's just the nature of women, but so long as it is mutually beneficial I see no problem.
I really like this channel. No B.S. and actually has things you can learn from. Arigato gozaimasu!
Nice 🎉🎉 I am enchanted by these interviews. 🔥🔥
I'm 30, good looking, good financially, kind/considerate, etc yet I have never had a serious relationship. It makes me feel like I'm doing something wrong
Doesn't help that I travel all the time and it makes creating longer term connections nearly impossible unless she wants to escape with me.
That could be the main issue…. that you’re not rooted in 1 location to build deep connections with the locals.
Granted you could meet another traveler such as yourself if you know where to look. 😉
I wish you the best sir!
@lialiakicks Maybe.. I just need to step up and lead a relationship, no excuses 🤷♂️ I need someone who wants to travel for sure
your problem is that you aren't actually good looking and you don't know how to do small talk
Guys and gals, you do understand these are hand picked interviews? There are plenty of people who may like older partners, but also incredible amount of younger women who really dislike much older guys and would rather find someone handsome around their age
go out and experience life in person, not through youtube.
Videos like these should be for entertainment only
年上の男性が好きじゃない女性なんて見たことありません。同い年がいいと言う人はいますが、だからといって年上が恋愛対象に入らないという人はあったことがありません。
@timsohn7057 I have heard from a South Korean native now living here in the US in upstate NY, that it all depends on the individuals but I have this friend and she is bisexual, not to air her dirty laundry, but she has said that she gets more younger girls flirting with her and more older men, both Asian and White, flirting with her.
It'd be interesting to see what she thinks about these interviews. Japan and SK aren't too far apart in thoughts on many things.
@@zaynes5094 Japan and SK have similarities but their differences also run very deep. Don’t let their proximities fool you. I mean look at the diff between France and Italy.
This video is designed to provide a genuine insight into the opinions, culture and values of a nation, it's not simple entertainment but intended as semi educational, though they are likely cherry picked, that's certainly true, I would prefer if there were arguments both for and against this arrangement, but it's not a debate.
Personally I find this interesting, since as a 30yo, I would be open to a situationship with an 18yo, but I'm aware money would most likely be involved.
For dating she'd have to be between 23 and a couple years older than me, I perhaps lean a little younger just because of my lifestyle, there probably aren't many women my age who likes to travel frequently and plays a lot of video games lol.
Also, and I acknowledge they're consenting adults almost everywhere, but 16 is too young for me, that extra two years is important for finding oneself and becoming a confident adult.
It's important for men to realize your value is an upward climb, most likely you'll have your shxt together from your mid 30s to 40s if you weren't playing around, and you still have a chance to bag 20 year olds.
So you ethically are ok with dating someone that you are older enough that they could be your child. People are just sick… really!
@@soullessnight6539Long as she is an ADULT, what’s the problem? Are you against racism and sexism? Then why is ageism ok with you? Btw you’re confusing morality with ethics. Not surprising at all coming from an illogical emotional feminist like you.
I wouldn’t use the word “bag” if you’re serious about a relationship, but what you say is completely true. Men have to work for and prove our value, while women consider themselves to have inherent value just for being born as a woman. No woman would seriously consider dating and marrying a man with no income or job that can support a family, whereas a man doesn’t care if a woman has no income or job for dating or marriage.

Good old Osaka Lucua. The girl on the right at 1:45 is an absolute stunner.
The problem of the age gap is mainly just a myth. It depends on the personality. Young and old can become very good friends based on common interests, compatibility and mutual respect. Everything else should just work out accordingly.
Age is just a number. If two people love each other, it doesn't matter the difference in their age.
Are you serious?? Not if the person is a minor. You’d be ok dating a 16 year old if you’re an adult?? That’s sick. 😡
@@FransceneJK98 Actually, I agree with you. 16 years old is too young to even date with anyone. What I meant was anyone who is 18 or over. However, in some countries, it is alright for a 16 year old to date someone older.

Karl Malone ass comment
I was in a bar with a friend, he pointed out a couple at the other end of the bar. My friend asked "how old do you think the girl is?"
I guessed 'Mid 20's?'
my friend nodded "Yup, she's 27" he then nodded towards her partner "What about him?"
I worked out from my friends question that there was an age disparity and the guy looked mid 30's so I guessed high '40? maybe 45?'
It turned out he was in his late 60's - he had a physique that would shame a guy in his 20's and not a wrinkle or grey hair in sight.
When I was 23 I dated someone who was 15 years older I think older men are sexy
We are. Also we're trained by all the girls we've loved before. 😊

That’s fine if both are adults but not if one is a child or teenager
Preferences can change during our lives. When I was younger, I much preferred a little older guy. Now, in my forties, I would much prefer younger. But most of it, it depends on the person and compatibilities.
To all the guys out there, here is just another example of women can switch on you anytime, no matter what you do for her and at what stage of your life. And if they have the tools and the incentive to do so, they will do it.

So no, it is note an example, as you say.
It just seems you had a painful experience. Can happen to anyone men or women. People change with time, and indeed for a lot of them lifetime relationship is not something they want to do. On one part it is good to avoid people being unhappy for the rest of their life. On other side I noticed that many even tried to work it out and work on the issues.

I'd love to find love in Japan...But I hear so much about the cheating culture there..I don't know if I believe they are being true....I did get a forture when I was in Japan which said I'd get a proposal..But sadly it didn't happen before I had to leave...Plus many are not looking for long term relationships in Japan from what I have heard..Where as I would be....I lost my partner to cancer after 24 years together in 2017..And I have been alone since..But as I am now a middle aged man, ugly and have nothing going for me..I am doomed to be alone for the rest of my life...Sucks being me...But I do love Japan..wish to return one day...One last thing...I can imagine many who might be looking for a relationships with foreigners..are doing so in the hope of the leaving the country..rather than for love...Which is sad.
I'm sorry you experienced such a loss.
I'm from England, have lived in Spain, and currently in Denmark, and believe me, the amount of cheating is no better or worse in these countries than Japan. It just seems to be more of a topic there.
I hope you can find the self esteem, and positive sides of your personality to move on into a better future, and feel less doomed. Life can suck, but it can also throw some beautiful moments when you least expect them. I hope you can go out and find them.

A lot of people in the comments agreeing with love has no age limit… Im sorry but the guy at 58 saying he’d date a 16 year old is insane, and he’d probably go lower if it was allowed… Even at 23 i would never even think of dating someone that was 16, at what point is the line drawn between “love has no age” and straight up pedophilia?!
I totally agree. It's crazy to me that more people don't immediately point this out.
maybe you should draw the line of how developed the person is.
People are hitting puberty MUCH earlier.
A 16 year old (especially female) is at the end or near the end of her puberty.

@user-ul9nq7xo1b ok. I am currently 19 years old. I will marry a girl ±3 years older/younger than me
I’ve always felt the most important thing is that both people feel the same age and can understand each other and adapt to each other well. Huge age gaps make that difficult, but not impossible. Once I reached mid 30’s, my priorities shifted and if I were single again it would be much more difficult to date someone in their early 20’s, but there are definitely exceptions, people with similar values, focus and sense of humor.
Very cool insights
The last girl says it all with pretty much what most girls are thinking here in Japan. One of the reasons I feel that marriage is on a decline here in Japan is that men at her age and even my age at 29 no longer have a difference in pay gap. So women expect men to earn more or they feel they need to either do better themselves or dump the guy. It's sad because in the end it's a team effort and who earns more money is rather irrelevant and shouldn't dictate who gets more control or whatever. Whomever is better at something should just do their part, two halves make a whole.
I earn less than my wife whom is the same age and she says the same thing. It's not something I can control because it doesn't matter anymore how much you are ganbatteiru by working late or devoting to your company anymore, changing jobs does increase pay but it is hard to get a raise afterwards, and skilling up won't see good returns for at least a couple of years. The salary system in Japan is broken and being stuck in a corporate world wouldn't give you the same benefits as those in the past. It's time women in Japan need to learn that we BOTH need to earn money if we want kids.
*I’m 69/35/70*
Great subject! How about the rest of you? How old are you and what’s your spread?
It’s irrelevant because I’m happily married, but I’m 69, would go as low as maybe 35 but no higher than 70. IMHO, most people don’t settle into who they really are until 35-40. On the older end, not so much; I find hanging out with people my age _really_ boring 😕
(This was a really great interview, the interviewer had a good sense of humor and asked good follow-up questions. I liked the length, with so many people being interviewed, seeing so many perspectives.)
From what I’m told from friends in Japan, the age limit is 16 was meant for people that were dating around their age. Like a 16 year old dating an 18 or 19 year in current relationship. Not for a 30, 40 or 50s exploiting a teenager.
But then again I’m just going off what friends from Japan & my wife tell me.
Wait til you learn about a little thing called porn 💀
The interesting thing is that even though someone says that they will never date, go out, be a couple or even marry someone much older, etc., things can change. They might meet someone that they really get along with, and like their personality so much, etc.
Sometimes they say “I’ll never go out with someone 5 years older than me. But then you see them engaged to someone 10 years older then you ask them, what happened?” To their reply: he/she is so kind and amazing, I never expected to find someone like him/her, so I don’t mind his/her age.
The thing is they judge at the beginning and depending someone age they put a wall in front of them towards that person, but if age is not talked about and the relationship flourishes, those previous self boundaries about age are pushed aside.
It’s like when you say “I’ll never read that book, it’s gross, or useless, not interesting at all, etc, but you have only seen the cover and title/name. But later you find that book without cover and out of curiosity start to read then you like it so much than even if half-way you realize it’s title/name it won’t change that fact that you like it and want to finish it.
Also you might ask those same people 5 or 10 years from now the same question and the answers might be completely different.
And in a country where they are not completely open and honest with their answers (tatemae), those same answers might differ greatly behind the camera.

are you sure "leeway" is the accurate translation into English? Or would "more scope" be more accurate? Scope - definition
n. 1. The range of one's perceptions, thoughts, or actions:
I'm almost 80 (I look much younger than my age) and my wife is 35. We have been together going on six years. We treat each other equally and age never comes into question. It's no different for me when I first married at age 22. Since we are like two peas in a pod, no one in our families or friends makes it an issue.
BTW: Age difference in younger peeps, not so much. But, divorced/separated and older don't dwell on age so much.
My fiance is 37 and I am 27. I honestly find older guys especially if they are Japanese much more attractive. No, it wasn’t for money, we are coworkers that roughly get the same salary and both of us are very low maintenance.
My argument is this, Japanese people due to living significantly longer than most of the world, do not get the “matured look” until their late 30s-40s and look really young or boyish until those ages which I personally am not very big on. I also really like the adult worldview, life experience and the fatherly protective attitude of guys this age and therefore feel much more attracted to them.
I think it's because older men tend to be seen more as romantic interest and get more attention because they're financially more stable so in turn they also become more confident.
Unrelated, but I want that statue in mini format from the beginning of the video for my lawn lol.
Yes!!! I also only like much older men like that man in the video and older! You westerners need to stop push your craz y ish on every culture! I agree with a lot of the Japanese people!
How old are you and whats the oldest guy you dated or could date? I have no age limit as long as I’m attracted. I could go for much younger or even older women. As an American I’m pretty open minded about such things.
please don't generalise! It's more a US -attitude! Europeans are (mostly) different !
It is worth pointing out that Japanese people actually have a smaller age gap at first marriage than Americans do. But the 58 year old was creepy, come on.

I remember reading a report about Japan a while ago and it said that up until 2012 or 2013 CeePee was legal!!
When I was younger I really liked older guys. Now that I am older, I prefer younger guys...
I think it is because I have a young attitude, and don't have much in common with old farts!! Lol
In Japan, my boyfriend was 13yrs younger than me...but the communication was the issue rather than age. He didn't speak English, and my Japanese was beginner level. To this day I still love and miss him so much...he was an amazing guy😢

Lovely people. Greetings from London
Depends. How much money you got?
The age gap is not an issue in my experience, neither is marital status. 😅
Here in the UK once I reached my 30's I suddenly had a LOT of attention from college age girls even had a few that were so forward if I let them down that they pretty much came out and told me they would sleep with me as if it would change my mind. I mean I admit I am very flattered when young often stunning girls desire me but I feel like a creep if I dated them even having a fling, I would even feel creepy if I was around 30 and they were say 19 but I'd say it was possible. These days now I am late 30's I'd possibly date a 20/21 year old but I doubt it as I feel the life gap not necessarily purely age is too big unless that 20/21 year old grew up fast i.e had experiences in their life before their time that matured them. I'd more likely go for a woman around 24/25.
When I was 37, I had a GF who's 22. I can't believe young girls still like me. LOL
Then I have been with a 19 year old girl.. We dated for a year until she turned into a feminist and did facial reconstruction and got some tattoos.. I don't get her she turned goo-gogo gaga... LOL
But anyways, I am glad to know that there are girls who still like me despite my age. Because I like young girls.. 18 to 26.. something like that.. because they are fun and has bubbly personality and I also feel young but with freedom.. Unlike older girls.. I feel they already have an attitude and kinda sick of life.
I'm 21 years older than my Chinese wife.

Its never much of an issue but society is never accepting towards it and so have to deal with all the stigma that comes with it.
a 10 year difference is already too much of a difference but that difference gets less impactfull as people grow older.

That guy in his late 50s saying he’d consider a 16 year old. I’m a similar age and would feel weird with anyone younger than 40 and even then I’d be having doubts.
I would be surprised if that guy ever dated at all. A lot of guys who think like that are missing some milestones.
Eww...that is nasty! A Grandfather dating a child is disgusting!
It depends on the individual and the law. I believe if she's young enough to be your daughter then too young. So 16 years younger. If "she's" in her late 20's and "pursuing" someone that's 20 plus years older that's ok too. I say that because if it was my daughter I would only be ok with it if he loves her and wants to start a family with her and therefore leave her everything too. He can't be a bum but damn near a high value.

He keeps saying that the age of consent has recently been RAISED to 16?! How young was it before?
My question, also. Anyone?? (14 years old?)
It was 13 previously. Korea used to have similar age of consent too.
13 because of "Romeo and Juliette" type situations. Not for adults to mess with children. And generally the age of adulthood in Japan was 20.
Average age at first marriage in Japan is 29.5 for women, 31 for men - a 1.5 year age gap.
All statistics show women are attracted to men who are UP TO 5 years older than themselves. It's why the age gap tends to be 2 years or less in all developed countries.
Some people will cry and gnash their teeth but obviously young women like young men. "Older" man for them is, one again, up to about 5 years.
The 10 year age gaps are more common when a woman is already over 30 and struggling to find someone.
Wow! Had no idea!
A friend of mine in his mid fifties dated someone in their 20s for around 10 years. He had a stroke and was paralysed and had garbled communication and she left him after about 6 months. I guess she wanted to have a life.
Age is only a measure of our biological decline and not our maturity. There is a legal age limit to start intimate sexual relationships with a minor to protect their personal space to mature healthy and their personality to develop freely. Although it is no assurance that they will not be faced with a manipulative parent who tries to push the person into things otherwise he/she wouldn't. So, in general, I think it is healthy to be in a relationship with an older person as you will learn a lot otherwise you would waste your time by experiencing it, so our social development evolvement could reach a higher degree thanks to those organically observing information and maturity through having in a relationship with an older individual. How old is up to you I think but has nothing to do with regulations or else, it is what it is. It is also equally important for older people to learn how to be young again and we human beings tend to forget what life is about, so we mature to the point where we become super forged/matured which is unhealthy at some point. We can become lifeless or too material and so it is the main trigger to psychological diseases, like psychopathy and similar unwanted personal decline.

Nah not more than 10 Years younger or older than me (45). That's my Age-Range that i'm looking for. I once dated an 18 Year old Woman when i was 32 and it went horribly wrong. I don't need that anymore. I either find someone who's 10 Years younger or older than me. Otherwise i'll keep looking. Or stay Single 'till the End of my Life, which to be honest wouldn't be sooo bad. Just my two Cents...
This is interesting for so many reasons. おつかれさま
