My Writings on Japan...
For a while I was a columnist at Japan Today.
I stopped writing for them because I was contributing a lot of material... and they were publishing it... UNEDITED. Too embarrassing!
Note: some of the articles are really dated. Read to see what predictions came true, and what didn't. Note that the files were probably moved, so all the social media hits look low. Actually, at the time the articles were getting a lot of social media activity.
Here are some of them...
Gaijin
Crisis of Ambivalence
Tobacco
Death Penalty
Story of the Love Hotels
Juvenile Crime
Gender Equality
Japanese Protest Boom
How To Win an Arguement, Japanese Style
Getting Mental Help In Japan
Suicide
Foreign Disillusionment
Humor and Culture
Drinking
Disaster
Talent
Politics
Commodore Perry
