In Japan, the women's labor force participation remains among the lowest among developed nations. Women are culturally discouraged from having ambition. Married women are listed, along with children, as part of a man's household. The traditional role of women in Japan has been defined as "three submissions": young women submit to their fathers; married women submit to their husbands, and elderly women submit to their sons. Surveys show that between a 28% to 70% of women have been groped on train cars.

I’m glad you said “obedient”. That seems to be the crux of the issue with western men looking for Asian wives. The obedience is attractive. Most western women are not going to obey. They would rather be a partner and in on decision making than obedient to their husbands’ commands.
With as materialistic and as hedonistic as Americans are, deep down, we know the trappings are not really what is important. The economy is going well- and political thinking is that people should be happy with Trump. His approval ratings are in the toilet. Why? Because money is not everything. We miss the civility of Reagan.

Hmm i think you have a point but most men take advantage or women who are submissive and just use them for themselves i just want a submissive wife because its a virtue in the Bible and she could help me not be stupid at times yelling at men never works xD, it's obvious most men just want toys they can play with but as Christian men women are seen as something we are to lay our life down for similar to children even though they are supposed to be submissive we are supposed to give our life to make them happy and improve their walk with Christ the women get the easy part basically xD
Biblically, men are supposed to submit to their wives, also

Asian culture is honorable only if you are able to fit into its very narrow parameters.
I was found in a cardboard box as an infant on a street (so the story goes) in South Korea because this is what Asian culture does with unwanted children. The actual story is most likely a lot less pretty, though I won't know until I get to heaven.
I met a Korean woman at a church several years ago whose father was killed during the Korean War, and her own grandmother told her mother to throw her into the nearby river when she was born, because to be born without a father is seen as bad luck in Korea, and worthy of death. All her life, this woman was known as "The Bad Luck Baby" and usually beaten to the point of passing out for anything bad that happened in her family and even her town.
Killing anyone who doesn't fit in, meet social standards, or is somehow seen as "bad luck" for a myriad of reasons is considered the honorable thing to do, no matter how young (and sometimes, the younger the better.)
A member of my family married into a traditional Asian family--and was told that he is merely sub-human and not a real person because he is adopted (even though he is Asian)--because that's just how it goes in Asian culture. This is why you see so many Asian adoptees in other countries like America--because Asian culture wants nothing to do with those conceived or born in what is seen as socially dishonorable situations (which, for most, also includes being a child of mixed race.) The only thing such children are seen as being good for is a profit.
I haven't checked the latest statistics, but last I knew, over 90% of Korean women have their eyelids "fixed" (surgically altered to create a "fold" and make them look more "Western"), and the ones who don't are scorned for not "fixing their eyes," much in the same way that African American women are scolded if they try to let their hair go natural.
Asian culture is very honorable.
Just make sure you're able to born into and then jump through all the flaming hoops in order to earn their honor (which most often starts with being nothing other than a native-born, dyed-in-the-wool, "genuine" member of their race and society), and you're all set.
(Good luck with that... lol.)
I respect Asian culture as much as any other "outsider".
But I thank God that He brought me here to the USA, or my life would have been nothing BUT rejection (assuming I would have been allowed to live.)
I know it's very cool for young people now days to be into Asian culture.
I just wish they had a little bit more of a realistic view.

A few members of my family have married Asian women and I've been so happy for them. They're the definition of grace and honour. It never surprised me that western men went across the shores to find someone to share their life with. Having travelled to different parts of Asia, since I was a child to either holiday or study I can attest how vastly, distinctly different it is from traditional western culture and values.
Yes, exactly.
I was trying to hint at this in my post, but I'm glad you stated what should be obvious.
Unwanted children (which includes children born out of wedlock--there are no such things as single mothers in Korea--or to mixed parents) are only good for profit, with some of the most prominent examples being adoption... and of course, prostitution or trafficking. I have no illusions about what could have happened to me had God not sent me here to the States.
If any of you young people out there who adore Asian culture are from a single-parent household or unmarried parents, be glad if you were not born into traditional Asian culture, because you would be scorned and ostracized for the rest of your life.
Asian culture does seem to be having a moment right now... I just wish that people would see it like any culture.
It has some wonderful and fascinating things about it.
But, like any other culture, it also has some unspeakable horrors and socially acceptable crimes that need to be stopped, and not glossed over by dolls and cutesy cartoons.
Take a look into "Beating Trauma with Elisabeth Corey". She's a prime candidate to illustrate that this is a global crisis, not particular to any asian subculture at all. Her life and road to recovery is so inspirational, I've spoken to her one on one and there would've been thousands of times as an infant that she wished her biggest problem was being adopted out of the western family she was born into.
Many of those "cutesy cartoons" are quite disturbing in how young women and girls are portrayed Of course that is a problem in many cultures, so Asians are not alone in this.
I have had an Asian boss for the last thirty five years, and worked with many Asians in that time. My original boss completely took advantage of the Asian women's submissive natures, making them work when they wanted holidays, or forcing them to take time off without pay, which is actually illegal as far as I know... or use up their holidays when he wanted them to, and not when they wanted to. I will never forget the time one of my co-workers came to me to request that I ask our boss if she could have holidays, specifying the time she wanted, and I told her I would TELL our boss that she would be taking that time off. There were about three of them standing there all giggling into their hands at my response; maybe that is what they were hoping I would say? They knew I was not like them when it came to our boss

Gawsh thanks for ruining every guys confidence here xD nah but fr i didn't mean all the time when i called men idiots I'm just frustrated cx and women can choose what they want, if you want Johnny Depp goodluck xD im js that women twnd to care about personality more it's just an observation lol. But some women do have to submit to men when they are being stupid we are still human and we are going to make wrong decisions but our wives are there to help us when we fall you guys are more important then people give you credit for tbh. But just because we lead doesn't mean we can't discuss the decisions with our wife it's not that simple but i think i made my point cx, if you're in the homar marge thing well... ..idek what to say to you what did you see in him ig would be the main question. I'm not gonna get into girls being jerks to dudes tho we aren't gonna talk about that for the next ten years too
