Thank GOD that in Japan the politically correct bullshit you talk about is almost nonexistent. What’s next, you criticizing Japan Japanese society because is linguistically and culturally homogeneous and not a “melting pot” like USA?

What the hell is wrong with wearing a pair of shorts? I can’t believe that wasn’t last place (or that anyone even voted for it).

By the way shouldn’t it be Cartoon (with one “t”) for #14 ?

So this was for hetero women only, not men who happen to have boyfriends or women who like women. I don’t know in Japan but in most progressive societies these types of surveys would be considered discriminatory.

“Pierce” is a verb so you can’t say “a pierce”. “A piercing” would be better (I know the wasei-eigo ピアス, but it looks strange when written in English).

I think male piercings are pretty much accepted now right? I’d never get one myself though!

I’d have to vote for the cartoon character one. Grown men with Winnie the Pooh t-shirts…
