2pints-mate 0 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 This was hinted on in another thread, but what is it with a large number of the current Japanese male youth wanting to it seems look like a girl? We noticed a fair amount of real pretty boys in Tokyo when we were there, is it just a city thing or is it 'normal'? Do the chicks love their boyfriends looking like other chicks and not like a bit of real bloke or what? I'm interested to know! Link to post Share on other sites
I'm Sexy 0 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 I don't like it. I like man to look like man, not plastic woman model. Link to post Share on other sites
Oyuki kigan 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 i personally don't care if a guy wants to look like a girl. Whatever turns their crank. I have been a fashion victim myself. What i don't like is what seems like the majority of people spending (to my mind) way too much time preening. I think its a waste of time, and looks pretty vain to me. I have spent enough time worrying in front of a mirror and i hate it. I personally find girls (and guys) who look natural to be more attractive seem happier than the made-up ones. But maybe that has to do with personality too. A lot of them seem more comfortable with themselves and don't have the need to impress anybody. People seem to enjoy spending more time beautifying their outsides than their insides. Link to post Share on other sites
damian 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 >>boys looking like girls Quite similar to a bottle of beer looking more like a bottle of champagne. My girlfriend bought a bottle of brew back from the corner store last night and for all the world, it looked like a bottle of bubbly without a big cork. I drank it today for lunch and it was beer, taste was ok, certainly better than the sausages that I burnt. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I think they look like girls. And, girls, do you like my avatar? Link to post Share on other sites
me jane 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I was a bit confused when I first came to Japan. There were some boys I really thought looked like girls. Do they realise it though? I think a lot of them just think they are fashionable and lots seem to have girlfriends tottering along beside them. Link to post Share on other sites
eskimobasecamp 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 One of my students (a guy) asked me about my lipbalm the other day... he just thought the little container looked cool or something (from muji) and then he got his lipbalm out, put some on and then pointed out that it had a frosty pink tint to it... i was really trying hard to look interested and not fall over laughing The student in question doesn't look like a girl at all, but i thought this was hilarious... it's almost lipgloss dude!!!!!

soubriquet 0 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 I find it comforting that these boys invest their time and money in cosmetics. Much better than guns, knives and amphetamines. It was nice at Gassan today to see the snowboarding punk yoof doods attend to their girlfriends and clear up their litter. Link to post Share on other sites

Thunderbird2 0 Posted June 4, 2006 Share Posted June 4, 2006 Tokio Hotel, never heard of them where are they from. Some of the boys at a school I used to go to were into wearing bright red lipstick. Along with the spiky moulded hair thing going on as well. They seemed to be popular enough with the fashionable girls. Link to post Share on other sites
yoroshiku onegai shimasu 2 Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 I don't want to look like a girl and I'm not gay but some of those guys really are pretty. A bit creepy if you ask me. Reminds me a bit of the new romantic scene in the 80's with all the pretty boys then. Link to post Share on other sites
me jane 0 Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Saw a guy all dressed up in his rocker gear, dirty ripped jeans, long hair, leather jacket, silver jewelry the other day. He was trying his best to look cool but the whole look was spolit by the huge pink fluffy rabbit keitai strap hanging out of his pocket. Link to post Share on other sites
