>The law became effective in April 2008 and added a new waist measurement requirement to the existing annual checkups required of all 40-75 year olds by local governments and employers. >Men with waists measuring more than 33.5 inches or women with waists measuring more than 35.5 inches are considered “at risk” and are referred to counseling, email and phone monitoring and correspondence, along with motivational support.
Downside is chicks really gotta squat more. Luckily mine knows I'm an ass man and works on her oshiri
Evan Jenkins
Japan is one of the few bastions of rationality left, and it's only because they don't let immigrants and other minority fucks into their country
If they ever start accepting refugees or something it's all over for them
Ian Howard
>bastions of rationality >people are massively overworked to the point of having one if the highest suicide rates and being some of the most depressed people on earth Stay deluded
Alexander Anderson
yeah i wouldn't use "rational" as the best word to describe japan, but it is a cool ass place to go as a foreigner
Brody Martin
Whatever it takes. Also you're not making it breh.
Tyler Hughes
The law finished in 2015.
That said I've beenliving in japan for like 18 months. Highly recommend
Dylan Campbell
It's pretty much the same hours for any corporate gig with a good company m8. Ive got mates working at Macquarie bank and PWC in australia and they're soing 14+ hour days.
The issue with corporate gigs in japan is going drinking with senpai. You do your 14+ hour day then you have to go get smashed with senpai at least 3 nights a week and roll up to work again in the morning.
I honestly think the general lack of sleep is a huge contributor to how beta men are here. No sleep = low test = beta as fuck herbivores
Caleb Torres
What about sumo wrestlers?
Chase Ortiz
>live in japan I would if I wasn't 6'7 zetsubou desu
Bentley Roberts
It only applied to over 60s if memory serves. t. Live in japan
Brayden Walker
I'm 6'4. Stop making excuses.
Bentley Williams
>Highly recommend Elaborate user?
John Perez
It's not an excuse, it's literally the only demerit I see in moving there. I just don't want to be some kind of public attraction or anything or bump my head on every fucking thing. Do you feel culturally integrated, are you fluent in Japanese? Is your height really not a problem?
Jacob Turner
How? Specific questions would make it easier. Aside from fruit everything is way cheaper than sydney, ausfailia. More convenience, no feminazi PC faggotry, people are more chill in pubs, no violence, people literally hold tables by leaving their phones and shit since no one will touch them.
You'll get that to an extent regardless being white. Nope, not even close. I've only done N4 JLPT. I may be able to do N3 but my kanji is shit. You get used to ducking. Being tall is a great conversation starter if youre looking to pick up too.
Jose Morales

Adam Moore
shouldn't it be based on BMI or something more consistent though? People carry weight differently.
Elijah Adams
And you're not being bullied or discriminated against or anything like that? Because I've heard the Japanese aren't always very welcoming to foreigners. Oh and where do you live?
Brody Brooks
go back to mlp
Bentley Cox
I see my boy MadBum in the bottom right corner
Michael Gray
Oh as for integrated, somewhat. I get invited out to baseball and shit with people i work with and i joined a martial arts club and they're all awesome guys. I've got my own friends and live with my gf so i haven't really felt the need to get involved beyond that.
Ian Bailey
As if bronies aren't also alt right faggots
Nicholas James
That's a fat Jap's twat. He's on the left
Anthony Young
Not in the slightest. I get the feeling that claim started due to americans sperging out that there are cultural differences and making no attempt to accommodate that.
I say that after watching countless americans doing just that. Don't get me wrong, some shit is frustrating as fuck but there was plenty of shit frustrating as fuck in ausfailia. It is what it is though.
Noah Bailey
My waist is 36 inches though, Japan would consider me a fatty? I was just cursed with broad hips and then decided to lift.
Brandon Long
Oh and tokyo. I actually went to a tiny town in chiba and found everyone way more friendly than tokyo though. Mostly oldies too.
I guess cities are cities everywhere.
Easton Evans
Well, thanks for all the info, I guess I'll look into it some more.
Eli Sullivan
>Nope, not even close. I've only done N4 JLPT. I may be able to do N3 but my kanji is shit. So most children can speak better than you?
Hunter Price
You'd hope native speakers could speak better than me. I have no significant problem with communicating so improving moon is a lower priority for me at present.
Brody Carter
...
Daniel Peterson
Lol this is retarded.
Bills of law about: shorter HS girls skirt lengths and pedo porn, and now, health is decided by waist measurements, meanwhile they kill themselves by the thousands and government is a goddamn lottery (pic related, lol)
Good luck to all the comedians and actors who for them being fat and being ridiculed for it was a career (If you are fat you are either the funny stupid guy or the evil pervert, in all the media). Good luck to all the marshmallow chasers.
This is both sad and hilarious.
Lincoln Foster
Again it only applied to over 60s due to the increasing medical costs and it's past tense.
Have fun sperging out though.
Nicholas Stewart
Why
>More fat people >Fat people die younger, thus less old people >Less fat people >Skinny people live longer >Old people have more complications and end up being a bigger drain on society >Japan has a negative birthrate, meaning more old people without younger ones to take care of them is shit
you know what never mind, fuck off to chink land and let me have all the white wimmen
not like it matters if you stay anyway, they'd pick me over you any day kek
Camden Ramirez
You'll note that they only decided to do that following complaints at their other branches about naked fatties ruining people's appetite
Owen Nelson
>I need fat acceptance.
Christian Perry
Tfw Japan is last refuge for manlets
Xavier Collins
Ayy, who are your mates at PWC?

>Sumo wrestlers have a life expectancy between 60 and 65, more than 10 years shorter than the average Japanese male. >Recently, the standards of weight gain are becoming less strict, in an effort to improve the overall health of the wrestlers.[12][13]
Landon Flores
>has 35.5+ waist >"oh I just carry it differently" Shut up nigger this is much better than BMI
Jack Collins
>this is what fat people believe I'm seriously considering the possibility that fat tissue affects cognitive ability somehow
Jaxson Jones

Samuel Perry
>14 hour days Audit or Tax? I'm at PwC Tokyo and I do 7.5 hrs (1hr lunch), but in consulting-type department. I used to do audit, but that shit just kills you.
The biggest problem here is that -good- gyms cost a fortune. I pay nearly $130 a month for a 3 day a week membership at Konami (yes, the videogame company), even with the company discount. Golds Gym is too far from where I live, but it's even more expensive.
Brayden Adams
lel they're having trouble with the increasing old people population. In a few years they will have too many old people that the working aged population would not be able to support the country.
Jayden Thomas
Why the hell is the waist measure higher for women and why is it all such twinky bullshit
David Adams
What the fuck is wrong with South African women?
Blake Gutierrez
I just want to tell you that the anorexia and bulimia problems are really high in Japan. That is how the girls stay thin. Been living in Japan for a few years, believe me. They sell diet pills in every convenience store.
Basically girls are skinny but crazy.
Jason Smith
so they're girls?
Wyatt Morris
Wow, are really all 'murican girls crazy? Is it that bad there?
Connor Morales
I train at a local taiikukan. Full cage, squat rack, 3 oly bars, oly platform and 4 benches. 200y a trip
Jacob Thompson
>they don't let immigrants and other minority fucks into their country Aside from the thousands of Pinoy nurses they just gave work visas to so they can wipe the butts of all the elderly people in hospice.
