I think that there is a whole segment of people that really do not know how to kiss and it is a learned skill, but that said I also think that you are either good at it or you just aren't. Some of it is related to culture but it is also a personal like or dislike as well. You guys have surely been asked if you kiss or not when you have met someone you want to get intimate with? I was always surprised by the number of guys who just refused to kiss another man. I thought "sure, you will suck a d**k but won't kiss?" What the hell is up with that? Usually it was a good signal that they were married but not always. For some people it is just too intimate an act for them to be comfortable with doing.
Hi guys, I am a big fan of your channel and like all the topics you talk about. However, I would like to know more about older gays in Japan. I mean guys in their 40s, 50s, not just the younger crowd. Things like, where do they hang out, are older gay couples usually out, how are they treated , etc
You know, Its ok to show a Japanese guy how you liked to be kissed. Maybe they will be offended...but you will have sent out another Japanese person in the world with a clue at to kissing. I have had to retrain several guys. Or maybe I am a bad kisser and don't know it and have trained them to be bad kissers LOL.
I think we need an open community of Canada-Japan (website or chatroom) so guys can meet and make friends, I love Japanese guys but having so much trouble finding them here in Toronto.
I only had 1 japanese guy in my life but he really liked to grind his front teeth against my front teeth. It was extremely painful and nothing about it was pleasurable so i dont know if this was the odd one out or if this is normal love making in Japan.
You can’t have a deep / low voice in customer service because it gives off an impression of dominance and authority. A higher speaking tone is more childlike and hence comes across as more submissive which equates to politeness and cheerfulness.
The thing about your voice being different in different languages actually comes from when you become fluent and somewhat confident in speaking them: Different languages have different phonetic system and your voice adapts to them differently, at first when you're learning you're kind of imitating the language you're learning in the phonetic system of your language, but when you become fluent you eventually just stop doing that and your voice naturally changes since you're using a whole new phonetic system. For example, I speak Spanish, Portuguese and English fluently. My voice is deeper in Portuguese than in Spanish and deeper in Spanish than in English. So hearing me switch from portuguese to english sounds a bit jarring.
Sorry I'm really late commenting here but I feel kinda the same. I'm Brazilian and lived 1 year in UK few years ago, My voice is way higher in Portuguese (native) than it's in English. I though Neolatin languages used higher pitches because most people I know show higher pitch speaking Portuguese than speaking English/Norwegian (I know a few Portuguese -speaking Norwegian people) but your comment makes a lot of sense!
Agreed with most topics discussed, in my experience most Japanese guys are shy so they are not good in bed or kissing, but a lot of it is a lack of confidence and porn that teaches bottoms to be like a starfish and cry like they are being murdered. Its pretty boring having to do all the work. As with everything exceptions exist but I also think the way sex is portrayed here and in the Western world is different, in Japan I feel like sex is seen as a "my pleasure" thing so its pretty much about making urself feel good, in latin culture at least (where I come from) sex is about "our pleasure" so you are constantly trying to please your partner and they please you. This is the same with kissing, in Japan most guys are "being kissed" they are not "kissing" so its not fun.
I think the reason Japanese do not kiss, it’s because kissing is an intimate act whereas sex is really just sex. As for sex itself, I feel there’s a hint of master and slave. Hence , the slave is always submissive and the master takes charge. This is perceived to be more erotic than reciprocal sex. It’s just a cultural preference.
@@yangtzeling7468 I guess one could argue that kissing is not more intimate than penetration but I do understand that cultural preferences and understanding are different and is all about communication and adapting.
Meng was right about Americans doing that customer service voice as well, but the vast majority of us also know that it’s fake lol As someone whose worked in customer service for years, I’ve noticed that I get a better response using my “customer service voice” vs speaking lower. People immediately perceive it as nice, even if it comes across as forced
Andrew reacted so strongly when Meng brought up his observation about poor kissing skills in Japan…What was that!? LOLOL You looked like you were saying “DON’T bring that up!!” 🤣🤣🤣
Also on Andrew’s experience with the ghost, I’ve definitely been on one night stands with guys in the US who were super talkative and intimate then we never spoke again. In some ways, knowing that I’m never going to see a guy again makes it easier to talk to him, like it doesn’t matter if he likes what I have to say or not
It ended so fast I didn't noticed it. I really enjoyed watching this Andrew and Meng. It is very informative specially to me who is interted in meeting/dating Japanese guys, I want more! (lol). Anyway another amazing and interesting video good job guys. :D
Can we talk about the editing when Meng was doing a counter attack??? LOOOOL I diiiiiiiied guuurl xD also this episode was basically the girls having a kiki and it was so so so cute, funny and refreshing! Please bring them again onegaaaaai xxxx
This is a weird reaction but I cried on the topic of ghosting and communication. I just ended a 6-month relationship with my Japanese boyfriend. He barely speaks English, and my Japanese is mediocre, to say the least, but we made it work during the initial months but I guess it became overwhelming for him. He said he's in a lot of stress just talking to me. And the fixed in me gave all possible options to fix the problem but he just ghosted me.
I feel that as a person who like can speak 4 languages ( all are not like frame grammatically sentences on my own and stuff, but I know how to spell and understand them), I can answer that language question to some extent. So, in my opinion, different languages have different ways of spelling words which opens and closes the vocal tract differently. Now for a language like Sanskrit, most work is done by vocal chords and a lot of vibration is felt in the abdomen area and the range of widening of the chords is different from that of a language like Telugu or Tamil and for a language like English a higher amount of vibration is felt near the nasopharyngeal region with a experienceable amount in the abdomen area. The feelings conveyed by the language also play a major role. Some languages have a heavy, rough, deep tone whereas some languages are as smooth as a flowing calm river. The masculine, feminine, neutral and null tinges in the language also have a affect on how our modulation depends on. Also, different major factors like confidence (as Andrew said), the amount of experience or attachment you have with the language, the intent for its use, etc also play a major role in the tonal shift.
Ghosting is an international phenomenon….I think it occurs more now with the advent of digital communication. Stay safe, stay sane, stay Strong Ukraine 🇺🇦
I totally feel what you guys brought up about ghosting!! What pisses me off though is that I had a Japanese guy ghost me after like 5 months of hooking up. He was supposed to spend the night at my place one weekend, but a coworker of mine got COVID so I told him we should hold off in case I was exposed to it. He said that's fine and we could meet up the next weekend. That was December 2020, and I haven't heard from the fucker since. Not that I'm bitter or anything... haha
Same thing happened to me a couple of times... If it's a one night thing it doesn't hurt but when you've been meeting over a long period of time I think it would at least be nice to be given a "sorry we can't meet anymore because xyz"
I kind of put it on the same level as if a regular Bootycall tells me that they or a friend/ Bootycall buddy tested positive for an STD. I know later on they are clean. But it is in the back of my mind, they are either "damaged good" or doing stuff that will get me infected. I know it's irrational. But if it is a new buddy who told me, I would probably ghost them as well as I now have to abstain for 2 weeks to make sure I didn't get anything or even worse, if they tell me at a later date, I have to tell my buddies I have fooled around with. A pain to avoid.
First time watchin your video at 11pm Singapore time on Tuesday evening. Better late than never! Very informative video this week! You guys asked the right questions to the locals. 👍
UGH! I always learn so much from Tokyo BTMs!! Thanks guys for another great vid, and a special thanks to Meng for the kissing question! You really took it THERE and I’m so glad you did.
My thoughts on kissing are that A: in my experience it’s like a 50/50 chance in the US on whether a guy is a good kisser and B: I think if a guy doesn’t learn how to kiss in his teens/early 20s I don’t think he’ll ever be a good kisser. Kissing is about adapting to the person you’re with, and if that’s not a skill you acquire when you’re young and malleable I think people get stuck with bad habits.
I’ve been with guys who clearly had no experience making out when they were younger so they just don’t use their tongue at all or aren’t passionate enough, and like, I can try and take the lead all I want but they’re too afraid to follow. I’ve also had guys who are WAY too aggressive, like they only ever kissed one person and were like “oh this is what kissing is” and even when I showed him how swollen he was making my lip he wouldn’t adjust his intensity. My advice? Kiss a lot of people while you’re young and learn to adjust, because the older you get the harder it will be (I say, as a geriatric 24 year old)
Lovely video guys! I particularly enjoyed the talk on customer service. I have worked in customer services and I was taught to always have a smile or cheery demeanour. In the UK, I find people tend to have a “phone voice” when talking to customers, which is a bit more cheery or softer spoken than when in normal conversation.
You guys are so right, I had a great time in nichome but I wish more Japanese men talked to me - I feel like a lot were too shy since I’m a tall white guy. Hopefully next time I visit!
The 'ghosting' thing happens a lot in the UK, too. You just find a guy you would like to see again, get together once, and then they block! I think a lot of men just want the gratification of a one-night-stand and then it's 'off to sow more wild oats elsewhere.' It's a shame, because with no expectation of a full on relationship, it would be great to have a friend with benefits when you find a sexy guy with a great touch.
I would love if a bar in Japan had more outdoorsy and simple-living/gardening/farming/down-to-earth type guys. I’d love to find a bottom fellow there!!
I'm fascinated by all the non-verbal stuff that's happening when speaking Japanese. Like how some of you covered your mouths when you were saying some stuff, seemingly on purpose.
I super super envy you guys, I'm in Canada and I have never had the guts or chance to go to Japan and experience all this great stuff you're sharing. These cultural differences are so interesting to learn and to be able to talk about. Keep going guys tight hug to both of you. from a top guy LOL ;)
Great topics Guys. I believe that an individual's history/experience/demographic also "color" perceptions of personal interaction. A character trait I might find off-putting in one individual, may not seem so bothersome in another. Also, a consideration might be given to "projection" of a person's quirks. If I am very positive about an outcome in a relationship/hookup, I have already "projected" enough positivity into the situation that may make me ignore some attributes that ordinarily I may feel uncomfortable with. Human interactions are often wonderfully messy, but, it's what we have. Even in the USA, there are sometimes dramatically different (regional and local) interests and ways of presenting yourself to others in the Gay community that make new environments exciting or unlikable. Cheers A & M and to your guests.
Respectfully..the more of these videos I watch..the more I realize that while I love the way Japanese guys look..I'm totally turned off by the way they behave romantically and sexually. I think these videos by @Tokyo BTM are not only educating us..but they are saving many of us from going to Japan in search of a romantic fantasy..but instead having our hearts broken. Thanks guys for teaching us the reality of Japanese love! 🖤
Thank you for this video Andrew and Meng! It just goes to show the stereotypes and cultural differences we must work to overcome. In this day and age where concent is literally everything Americans can learn a thing or 2 from the Japanese way of doing things, because let's face it nobody wants to be on the wrong end of a "me too". Now i would probably knowing this is a thing would say i am saying yes to you and everything you want to do to me up front, don't ask onegaishimasu just do. (However that would translate?) But, if they asked i wouldn't be mad just remind them it is ok. Loved this video!
wow...that taught so much perspective as to the thoughts of other cultures and why they do stuff. So was it just editing or was Meng mostly quiet for this episode. I normally perceive Meng as quite talkative and can hold his own in conversation. But then the two tops talked a lot and the two bottoms were not as vocal. 🤔
I think in America, if you are an Asian or Black gay, it is hard to get attention because the gays there want your stereotypical Anglo Saxon Adonis or hot latino lol
I really enjoyed the video today guys can’t wait for next week video and I think your always put out interesting videos. You guys are doing great on TH-cam can’t wait for next week video.
There is a rank-like stage in romance, and it's shaped like a pyramid. People downstairs can't date the person at the top. Because around top people don't answer these people so these people can be associated with the similar people. These "ranks" are in every country. As a Japanese gay person, It's a little hard to say, but as you say, many Japanese don't want to go out with foreigners... maybe... Since the "under" Japanese are approached by other Japanese, they tend to associate with other (also) non-popular Japanese. Because that's the only way they can. This is the same as in the gay world. Foreigners always seem to be dating unattractive Japanese people (for Japanese) who have no experience and are rejected by other Japanese in romance. Therefore, I think that many foreigners talk about their experiences with "these" Japanese people who have become inexperienced transparent people. Of course, there is no lank in humans. But in romance, there is. I think this is the truth. I saw racist comments by foreigners that is being spoken we're all same, but like I said, Japanese who are associated with foreigners are usually non-popular people here. I'm sorry, but that's the truth.
Mr Remon K, whatever you believe is absolutely delusional and not true! I have seen so many Japanese guys and girls who are open to date foreigners, they are physically attractive, confident, bilingual, international and open-minded. Your idea is a reflection of Xenophobia. Labeling people who are dating foreigners as "losers back home". And what's wrong with dating someone who thinks you are attractive? Eastern Asian countries have monotone lofty beauty standards and I am so tired of it. It is 2022, you need to wake up Sir!
Andrew has a point on Japanese men not being the best kissers. They always felt a bit stiff and uptight to me. I always thought it was a combination of their over-shyness and a lack of confidence as well. Perhaps there are confident gay Japanese men (from Japan) but I have not met one yet. Then again, the Japanese men I am meeting that are from Japan are here in the states on my home territory and they probably do not have a lot of experience with foreigners (in Japan). So when they come to the states and all of a sudden just about every man is a foreigner to them, I guess that can be intimidating and cause confidence issues. Meng was right about American customer service representatives speaking in high voices as well. I think the difference between Japan and the U.S. is that the chances are good that the Japanese representative honestly wants to help where the U.S. representative 100% wants nothing to do with the person they are talking too and their cheerful demeanor is fake, fake, fake. The whole time they are talking to a person they are wishing that that person would instantly die. So much for customer service in the states.
I’m always dumbfounded how a stranger could greet another stranger with “how are you ? “ It’s clear as day nobody wants to know the truth. What happened to “ hello “ ?
Interesting conversation. Sorry to hear what happened to Andrew. But this is quite common to some asians. They will say let's keep in touch but will never pick up the phone. You can tell by the subtle vibes they sent out while they are with you. But not the words they say.
I found this interesting and seems like a fun place to visit. The only thing is I don’t drink alcohol so I don’t think I will be very welcome lol. I agree about the higher pitch Americans do it also. It must be hard trying to figure out who likes you when everyone is so polite all the time. I was raised to be polite so I understand it and I also have a hard time hurting someone's feelings. The younger me has even had sex with someone I didn’t want to be with just to be nice. I wouldn’t do that now it doesn’t leave you feeling great about yourself when you do have sex with someone you don’t like. I wouldn’t have thought of those guys as being gay just looking at them. They both seem very nice people.
It's interesting, I'm Irish but I am so attracted to Asian eyes, I find them beautiful. We like what we don't have. Literally 1 hour ago I was in the supermarket and there was an Asian guy with a mask. I just kept on starting at his eyes 😅 and his flawless skin and perfect hair. Love Asian guys ❤️. My best kiss was with a Chinese guy. We both used to get dizzy when we kissed. Amazing.
I’m an American and have friend who is Japanese and lives in Japan and every now and then he seems amazing that I’m attracted to Asian men. It’s sad that there is a stigma that Asian people don’t think quite people find them attractive.
Well, your friend is just 1 person in a sea of Asian men. You really shouldn’t take his opinion as the gospel truth. Secondly, your Japanese friend could really just be self deprecating and modest.
I feel like the two guys expected a talk on cultural and dating differences, but you guys kept talking about sex 😂 I think that we are less inhibited when talking about sex in a foreign language and it can become a bit too straightforward 😁
@@TokyoBTM OH, are you dating one of them? 2 bottoms, 1 top (I would assume he probably isn't stooping his employee...but who knows what the relationship is)
7:56 I feel the same way as andrew, but then again I have an azn friend who says my eyes are prettier becasue they are wide and all that, but I feel his are even prettier so! haha. And when I speak english my voice pitch changes to higher.
Interesting conversation, guys. 👍🏽👏🏽 I have heard the high-pitched customer service voice in Asian TV shows and when I visited Thailand, but I thought that was just their natural speaking voice. 😃 Meng is right though that we have our version of that too in North America. Wan seems so sweet and huggable; it's so cute when he covers his mouth while laughing. 😊
where to start... so much has been shared, firstly Andrew I don't know how you handled the ghosting even from a woman perspective if a guy would do this to me gosh my whole confidence would be down in drainage..... loved the open questions and answers and you guys were right about the sounds like "eeeeeee" we foreigners don't get it why Japanese are doing it :-D loved this video! Question did you fight over the guy when he said he is top? :-)
"Japanese guys are hot, and i think their eyes in particular are really beautiful." i watched this video a couple of days ago - came back to say that i agree !
From a US perspective, we ask "can't I figure you?", "can I kiss you?" Etc... Because we have a huge culture of Consent. You must have consent or it's rape. So we ask to make sure you are comfortable. Consent is sexy.
この度は素敵なコラボレーションありがとうございました😍❤️❤️❤️

Love the Persona touch in the editing! ♥
Over-politeness has its drawbacks. It can be less than honest.
I feel that with each video you're becoming less inhibited and using less inuendos by just saying how it is 😂
Such a great video, honestly it was a lot of fun to watch. It's great that you brought up topics that people might be too afraid to discuss.
This video was everything I didn’t know I needed today! 🤣🤣❤️
This was such a fun video. The AO guys were so nice and funny, and the editing just made everything funnier. Love you guys!
Adorable. Thanks. Very good information. Breaking barriers. Clearing up cultural differences. Thanks very much. I truly appreciate your help.

Lovely video guys! I particularly enjoyed the talk on customer service. I have worked in customer services and I was taught to always have a smile or cheery demeanour.
In the UK, I find people tend to have a “phone voice” when talking to customers, which is a bit more cheery or softer spoken than when in normal conversation.
Meng has the prettiest eyes.
you are too sweet
Liked video before even seeing, the girls are delivering the content 👌
this was one of your more interesting videos. i love it when you have japanese gay guests on
You guys are so right, I had a great time in nichome but I wish more Japanese men talked to me - I feel like a lot were too shy since I’m a tall white guy. Hopefully next time I visit!
The 'ghosting' thing happens a lot in the UK, too. You just find a guy you would like to see again, get together once, and then they block! I think a lot of men just want the gratification of a one-night-stand and then it's 'off to sow more wild oats elsewhere.' It's a shame, because with no expectation of a full on relationship, it would be great to have a friend with benefits when you find a sexy guy with a great touch.
Where in the UK are you? I wish YT had better messaging features.
@@j2174 Hello, really enjoy your channel! We're in East Anglia on the coast below Norwich
I would love if a bar in Japan had more outdoorsy and simple-living/gardening/farming/down-to-earth type guys. I’d love to find a bottom fellow there!!
this was such a fun conversation to watch. the language practice is just an added bonus😁
Another intresting topic guys! Congratulations!
Our pleasure!
Great interview. I cant wait to go!
People really do be like cars these days. I have been hearing a lot of hit and run incidents these days. 😮💨
Keep safe mina-san!
We all have our telephone voices 🤣
Absolutely that. "Moshi Moshi"
@@TokyoBTM I can hear the sass just from reading this 😂
I'm fascinated by all the non-verbal stuff that's happening when speaking Japanese. Like how some of you covered your mouths when you were saying some stuff, seemingly on purpose.
I super super envy you guys, I'm in Canada and I have never had the guts or chance to go to Japan and experience all this great stuff you're sharing. These cultural differences are so interesting to learn and to be able to talk about. Keep going guys tight hug to both of you. from a top guy LOL ;)
Great topics Guys. I believe that an individual's history/experience/demographic also "color" perceptions of personal interaction. A character trait I might find off-putting in one individual, may not seem so bothersome in another. Also, a consideration might be given to "projection" of a person's quirks. If I am very positive about an outcome in a relationship/hookup, I have already "projected" enough positivity into the situation that may make me ignore some attributes that ordinarily I may feel uncomfortable with. Human interactions are often wonderfully messy, but, it's what we have. Even in the USA, there are sometimes dramatically different (regional and local) interests and ways of presenting yourself to others in the Gay community that make new environments exciting or unlikable. Cheers A & M and to your guests.
Thank you for the video!
Respectfully..the more of these videos I watch..the more I realize that while I love the way Japanese guys look..I'm totally turned off by the way they behave romantically and sexually. I think these videos by @Tokyo BTM are not only educating us..but they are saving many of us from going to Japan in search of a romantic fantasy..but instead having our hearts broken. Thanks guys for teaching us the reality of Japanese love! 🖤
Yay! Fun and interesting viddeo! More collabs, please!
Really great video! Loved the AO guys and the questions you all asked! ❤️
They are so cute 🥰🥰🥰
@@TokyoBTM Yes! Very! 😍
Wan is so cute!
I'm so glad I discovered this channel
Thank you for this video Andrew and Meng! It just goes to show the stereotypes and cultural differences we must work to overcome. In this day and age where concent is literally everything Americans can learn a thing or 2 from the Japanese way of doing things, because let's face it nobody wants to be on the wrong end of a "me too". Now i would probably knowing this is a thing would say i am saying yes to you and everything you want to do to me up front, don't ask onegaishimasu just do. (However that would translate?) But, if they asked i wouldn't be mad just remind them it is ok. Loved this video!
Definitely adding Ao bar to my must-go-to places when visiting Tokyo. Cheers to more bars to add in my list 😆☺️
Such an interesting conversation is going on😂😂
Another fun and informative video. I love the relaxed vibe of your chats.
Andrew sharing just actual facts!
6:22 Things Andrew said about Japanese gays on kissing and head. I agree! 😂🤣
😂😂😂Andrew is not alone
@@TokyoBTM Maybe a video on what makes Japanese BJ's vs the worlds and how the Japanese do it better? Though very racy for TH-cam.
These are always fun to watch. Hope you are both doing ok during Japan's Omicron wave.
Love your video but that fly on the table was distracting me
holy sh*t! I feel so seen with the attraction to the snaggle tooth! I had no idea that it was a popular thing in Japan!
This was great i could have watched an hour of this, super interesting 😊
One of your best episodes! ❤
This was a fun interview!! :)
Does Meng's voice go higher or lower in Mandarin?
haha i feel my tone is always high in general. 😅 I actually don't know how to talk in a relaxed manner
@@TokyoBTM You guys are absolutely charming! Your voice is lovely, and carries a great deal of enthusiasm :)
I found this blog very interesting because of the subject. The perceptions foreigners have of Japanese and visa versa. 👍🙏😎
Love you channel! Such a great discussion.
wow...that taught so much perspective as to the thoughts of other cultures and why they do stuff. So was it just editing or was Meng mostly quiet for this episode. I normally perceive Meng as quite talkative and can hold his own in conversation. But then the two tops talked a lot and the two bottoms were not as vocal. 🤔
Wan-chan is damn cute
omg thanks for this amazing video. Is like solving s lot of endless questions in our mind towards the japanese.
Happy to help!
I think in America, if you are an Asian or Black gay, it is hard to get attention because the gays there want your stereotypical Anglo Saxon Adonis or hot latino lol
Wan fo AO is SO!! CUTE 🥰 MY GOODNESS I want to go just to see him lol 😂 P.S. wasn't meant to be a thirty comment
I really enjoyed the video today guys can’t wait for next week video and I think your always put out interesting videos. You guys are doing great on TH-cam can’t wait for next week video.
There is a rank-like stage in romance, and it's shaped like a pyramid. People downstairs can't date the person at the top. Because around top people don't answer these people so these people can be associated with the similar people. These "ranks" are in every country.
As a Japanese gay person, It's a little hard to say, but as you say, many Japanese don't want to go out with foreigners... maybe... Since the "under" Japanese are approached by other Japanese, they tend to associate with other (also) non-popular Japanese. Because that's the only way they can. This is the same as in the gay world.
Foreigners always seem to be dating unattractive Japanese people (for Japanese) who have no experience and are rejected by other Japanese in romance. Therefore, I think that many foreigners talk about their experiences with "these" Japanese people who have become inexperienced transparent people.
Of course, there is no lank in humans. But in romance, there is. I think this is the truth. I saw racist comments by foreigners that is being spoken we're all same, but like I said, Japanese who are associated with foreigners are usually non-popular people here. I'm sorry, but that's the truth.
Mr Remon K, whatever you believe is absolutely delusional and not true! I have seen so many Japanese guys and girls who are open to date foreigners, they are physically attractive, confident, bilingual, international and open-minded. Your idea is a reflection of Xenophobia. Labeling people who are dating foreigners as "losers back home".
And what's wrong with dating someone who thinks you are attractive? Eastern Asian countries have monotone lofty beauty standards and I am so tired of it.
It is 2022, you need to wake up Sir!
Another good video. I do like all Asian guys. Yes there eyes are usually lovely. Just wish there were more gay Asian guys near me. Thanks
Andrew has a point on Japanese men not being the best kissers. They always felt a bit stiff and uptight to me. I always thought it was a combination of their over-shyness and a lack of confidence as well. Perhaps there are confident gay Japanese men (from Japan) but I have not met one yet. Then again, the Japanese men I am meeting that are from Japan are here in the states on my home territory and they probably do not have a lot of experience with foreigners (in Japan). So when they come to the states and all of a sudden just about every man is a foreigner to them, I guess that can be intimidating and cause confidence issues. Meng was right about American customer service representatives speaking in high voices as well. I think the difference between Japan and the U.S. is that the chances are good that the Japanese representative honestly wants to help where the U.S. representative 100% wants nothing to do with the person they are talking too and their cheerful demeanor is fake, fake, fake. The whole time they are talking to a person they are wishing that that person would instantly die. So much for customer service in the states.
I’m always dumbfounded how a stranger could greet another stranger with “how are you ? “
It’s clear as day nobody wants to know the truth. What happened to “ hello “ ?
More interview like this !
Interesting conversation. Sorry to hear what happened to Andrew. But this is quite common to some asians. They will say let's keep in touch but will never pick up the phone. You can tell by the subtle vibes they sent out while they are with you. But not the words they say.
Lol @ Andrew perking up when Meng said Japanese guys aren’t good at kissing.
Wow, Andrew wasn't pulling any punches! So many critical -hits... 😂 Was he trying to get on the cute top's nerves on purpose?... 😏
So funny many thanks :))) reminds me of good times going out in 2chome
We had so much fun filming too
Hey min
What phrase did you use for “grass is greener on the other side”
I always known it as something else from what you said
「ないものねだり」
This guy..Wan..is so cute!
I found this interesting and seems like a fun place to visit. The only thing is I don’t drink alcohol so I don’t think I will be very welcome lol. I agree about the higher pitch Americans do it also. It must be hard trying to figure out who likes you when everyone is so polite all the time. I was raised to be polite so I understand it and I also have a hard time hurting someone's feelings. The younger me has even had sex with someone I didn’t want to be with just to be nice. I wouldn’t do that now it doesn’t leave you feeling great about yourself when you do have sex with someone you don’t like. I wouldn’t have thought of those guys as being gay just looking at them. They both seem very nice people.
It's interesting, I'm Irish but I am so attracted to Asian eyes, I find them beautiful. We like what we don't have. Literally 1 hour ago I was in the supermarket and there was an Asian guy with a mask. I just kept on starting at his eyes 😅 and his flawless skin and perfect hair. Love Asian guys ❤️. My best kiss was with a Chinese guy. We both used to get dizzy when we kissed. Amazing.
I’m an American and have friend who is Japanese and lives in Japan and every now and then he seems amazing that I’m attracted to Asian men. It’s sad that there is a stigma that Asian people don’t think quite people find them attractive.
Well, your friend is just 1 person in a sea of Asian men. You really shouldn’t take his opinion as the gospel truth. Secondly, your Japanese friend could really just be self deprecating and modest.
I remember the gay bar by the Osaka train station.
Ghosting is prevalent in the states with or without extra communication before or after snoo snoo.
I feel like the two guys expected a talk on cultural and dating differences, but you guys kept talking about sex 😂
I think that we are less inhibited when talking about sex in a foreign language and it can become a bit too straightforward 😁
it is part of dating i believe ;)
@@TokyoBTM OH, are you dating one of them? 2 bottoms, 1 top (I would assume he probably isn't stooping his employee...but who knows what the relationship is)
7:56 I feel the same way as andrew, but then again I have an azn friend who says my eyes are prettier becasue they are wide and all that, but I feel his are even prettier so! haha. And when I speak english my voice pitch changes to higher.
Interesting conversation, guys. 👍🏽👏🏽
I have heard the high-pitched customer service voice in Asian TV shows and when I visited Thailand, but I thought that was just their natural speaking voice. 😃 Meng is right though that we have our version of that too in North America.
Wan seems so sweet and huggable; it's so cute when he covers his mouth while laughing. 😊
where to start... so much has been shared, firstly Andrew I don't know how you handled the ghosting even from a woman perspective if a guy would do this to me gosh my whole confidence would be down in drainage..... loved the open questions and answers and you guys were right about the sounds like "eeeeeee" we foreigners don't get it why Japanese are doing it :-D loved this video! Question did you fight over the guy when he said he is top? :-)
haha not gonna fight over every single top ;)
"Japanese guys are hot, and i think their eyes in particular are really beautiful."
i watched this video a couple of days ago - came back to say that i agree !
I can definitely confirm that the ton of the voice change depending on the spoken language. My voice is louder when I talk italian lol
Andrew, kao ga akai! ^_^
From a US perspective, we ask "can't I figure you?", "can I kiss you?" Etc... Because we have a huge culture of Consent. You must have consent or it's rape. So we ask to make sure you are comfortable. Consent is sexy.
9:42, maybe he was waiting for a date to meet.
