I see you have started reading my textbook from Jpop XD

Also, the reason why the Japanese modern culture is very feminine is what is called the "castration" of the society via the atom bomb. Ask me about it on Friday and I can give you in fuller detail how this is so.

No, not even in a modern sense, im talking like, in an innate sense like...since the Nara period, when Japan was really gettign a sense of itself. And *especially* during the Heian pd, which I feel shows Japanese culture more so, since they were were isolationist at that time (contact with china was sort of cut off since it wasnt safe anymore since the Tang fell >.>). I mean, somewhere along the way Japan got all patriarchal (bleh >.<..still need to find out when that happned, and *why*..Whyyyyyy~. personally i think it went from women beign more delicate by choice, into a "forced" delicacy, robbing them of power...but, I dont know ( ... )

A society can be male-dominated but still feminine. (And yes, this is in relation to their castration) (I wrote half my second paper on this...also as an interesting note...Sanzo's in many Japanese adaptations of Saiyuki are either played by girls or feminized. If you wanna know more, ask about it next time as well)

I think innately Japan is more feminine though based on its isolationist factor. It has no outside influence so is based on natural instinct--in which case women would dominate because the womb is that which gives life and that is power.

If you dominate the threat, there is no threat anymore. ::nods sagely::
