In the old era, gay relationships were very common and were even praised among the privileged social classes, such as Samurai and monks.

What's an uncomfortable truth you've learned to accept?
Yaoi
Moreover, buff guys are often avoided for their narcissism.
It’s very common for a girl/ woman to ask a boy/ man to be her boyfriend.
They don’t have the so-called “couple culture” seen in many Western countries.
They don’t have the value that “guys must be macho.”
I sometimes feel people from the West are obsessed with those “gender” and “sex” things too much. Let’s think about something else sometimes. It’s unhealthy.
What is something you want to "get off your chest"?
Visual-kei
How do you see these below?
“None of my business” is the common attitude.
Are there any penalties for bestiality in the USA and laws prohibiting it?
They don’t tease or beat up cross-dressed people on the road.
We don’t instantly tie it with sex when a father and his very young daughter are taking a bath together.
I’ve heard it’s always the male side that is expected to take a move in some countries. It’s not the case in Japan.
How do you feel about the impending end of what Donald Trump calls "the Green New scam"?
They don’t bring around their mates everywhere, which means they don’t worry about being single, gay, or whatever because no one cares about whom others are having/ not having sex with.
