She is from a small town near Hiroshima, Japan. Lots of pretty green rolling hills near the seaside.

90-95% is English because I am so terrible at foreign languages, and I speak Japanese like a 2-year old child. Embarassed

What? It's true. I studied Spanish, Japanese, and a little Russian, and I suck at all of them. So I really envy you bilingual and trilingual people.

Speak? People speak during sex? What a waste of energy! Lips are for kissing, not talking. Wink

haha! but you guys still have something to tell I guess! for example, make sure you have a great time, likewise! I guess that requires language, huh?

I heard that English people always say:"yeah! my god!!" when they have sex! Laughing is that true?

It is, and I highly recommend it but only if you are very patient. You cannot get too angry about anything. When you get angry, you start talking faster, then the other person cannot understand you. So you must be patient and force yourself to slow down if you want to talk about any problem. I'll bet that the new guy Jeff would agree from his experience.

Thank you! Something I also recommend. I hear that girls are easier to raise when they are smaller. But I dread when she becomes a teenager! (Los Angeles is such a horrible place to raise a child.)

Only in the movies. We prefer telepathy. Cool
But seriously, in initmate moments we use 50-50 simple Japanese or English only when necessary such as "Ouch, you're on my hair" Embarassed (or "Please give me the shampoo" when showering).

But if you are 30, and you fall into with a guy who is 85, then that definitely matters Shocked
