Hello.

I am thinking of coming to Japan. I have been in China for some time and have a few questions about my potential move.

1/ Picking up girls in China is super easy. Yes I am white, but to be honest, I pick up girls pretty easy back in the UK to. Whats the scene like in Japan. I've been with some hot Japanese girls and many friends tell me there is lots more of the same waiting for me on the island. True?

2/ Tokyo is the obvious choice. Any better suggestions?

3/ I will be teaching. Any better suggestions?

Thank you

Sadly, your posts wreaks of pitiful stereotypes that plague many ESL teachers. Watch out for The Clap.

Firstly, what is 'The Clap'?
Secondly, explain to me what is 'plague-like' about my objectives and approach to life? There are many sad individuals who actually target asia because of their patent inability to attract members of the opposite sex in their native country. Perhaps yourself included?
ESl teaching is clearly a means to an end. That end is to spend an extended period of time in a different country, which might otherwise be impossible due to VISA restrictions. Lighten up. Who really wants to be a teacher?

Nice to see that a choice of occupations ranks last on your list of priorities. No offense, but reread your post. Don't be so innocent with the remarks about coming here for the women.

1. Some are easy. Some are not, but still willing. Some are scared to death of foreigners. Many of the younger ones have STDs.

2. Obvious why? Just because it has the largest population, perhaps. What do you want? Help us to help you.

3. What are you qualified for?

I usually don't post much here, but OP, your post has brought me out.

I am a professional teacher, and a woman. Your post accurately represents the gaijin stereotype that so many Japanese people hold. That stereotype makes it difficult for many teachers to be taken seriously here, and unfortunately many serious teachers are lumped into the same category with those of you wanting to come for a cooing trophy girlfriend.

Your attitude is also insulting to women (note; that's "women" not "girls.") Thankfully, many of the Japanese women I know have common sense and brains and would not come near men like you with a ten foot pole.

If you want to come and pick up women here, take a vacation to Japan, go out, have fun and then go home. If you don't have any interest in teaching, then please don't teach.

My God, give the guy a break.

Havent you noticed? Most people are teaching to live in Japan, not living in Japan to teach. And what the hell is wrong with a young guy being focused on how the women are? Who DIDNT consider it when they chose where to go? I know I did when I chose Japan over the Middle East.

1. Women here are great. If you do well in your home country then you will do even better here.

2. Tokyo, like any capital city attracts the most talent. The most m
