		<description><![CDATA[Quite a few of these are begging the question.  &quot;Why do they do this, just because ?&quot;  Most of the others can be explained by realizing that humans are just animals like any others.  So the answer is &quot;because if they show weakness, their rivals will kill them or drive them off and claim mating rights to their females.&quot;  Whether of not they still apply in modern society, the instincts are still there.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[#6 When they think they can meet us any time why does their priority for us over their friends drops?
#8 Because they don’t know the meaning of marriage, why do they insist on not marrying?

Both of these answer themselves.


#13 Since thinning hair appeals less to women, why do they get touchy about the subject?
Would you like to discuss the weight you&#039;ve been putting on lately? No? It&#039;s not appealing to men, so why be so touchy about it?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That&#039;s funny, I heard that women in Japan are easy and submissive, and the men are perverted and live with their parents till 30.
Not nice to generalize, is it ?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#039;Boiled Food&#039; sounds fairly unappetizing, like something I&#039;d be served in Communist Russia......she just tosses everything in boiling water, dumps it on a plate, slams it down on the table, and tells her man to eat]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oh man.. the funny thing is i don&#039;t think very many of them are specific to Japanese men, i hear women in the US complain about most of these all the time.
1. DUH.
4/1 this might be a Japanese-specific problem where the majority of socializing is with a romantic/dating intent
4/2 Actually iy&#039;s the opposite.. that&#039;s how men REALLY talk, we just tone it down when you&#039;re around, woman. Also, testosterone
8. This seems self-evident.. we don&#039;t want to commit to something if we don&#039;t know what commitments are required
12. One word... &quot;unimportant&quot;.
13 Why do you get touchy when we ask if you&#039;ve put on weight etc?
14 I prefer women without heavy makeup, but not because of vulnerability, I want to see what the woman ACTUALLY looks like, not her skill at falsifying her appearance
15. Don&#039;t you hate it when women stare at us when we&#039;re together? Apparently you don&#039;t want us going to parties when you&#039;re not around and getting attention from other women, couldn&#039;t you answer this yourself?
17. &quot;Why do they feel reluctant to do things they don’t like &quot; again, self-evident.
18.  it’s embarrassing?

Very interesting that the pretty/not pretty answer is tied... I guess maybe this shows more how loaded the answers were, rather than having them be write-in choices.]]></description>
