>>You won't find anything about this in Japanese history textbooks. Consequently most Japanese people don't know anything about it.<<

Exactly! I asked a couple of young Japanese in their 20s, none of them have ever heard their grandparents generation's atrocity in Nanking as well as all over China during WWII. That fact really upsets a lot of Chinese, as well as a lot of Southeastern Asians.

I quoted 2 paragraphs here from the book of "Rape of Nanking". As you can see, what really disgusting was what they did after the rape!

>>As for men-women relationships, as one Japanese friend of mine expressed it "We Japanese are one of the most modern societies for technology but one of the most backward ones for status of women." <<

Widespread porno industry in Japan seems really degrading and corrupting their woman's status, IMHO. It is not uncommon that a young girl sell herself for a brand-name, very expensive handbag. And I read that incest is not rare in Japan. Some young men's 1st experiences are taught by their mother, weird culture.
