Japanese women reveal men's most perplexing habits in a recent survey
Love in Japan is proving tricky for perplexed women who just can't understand their men. In a survey by Goo translated by What Japan Thinks, 1,159 respondents revealed what mystifies them the most about the opposite sex.
The Japanese dating scene throws up a few unfamiliar quirks, such as men's desire to keep attending 'go-kon' (blind date) parties with colleagues even after they have a girlfriend -- presumably justified as being there to support other single friends. Go-kons usually include three men and three women.In a country addicted to mobile phones, texting and using emoji (face characters) for short messages is commonplace but according to number 12, men are not good at responding, leaving the girls downhearted.
Most mystifying for us though, is no. 7. Quite why Japanese men seem to feel eating a huge plate of spicy food will attract a girl is as baffling for us as it apparently is for Japanese women. It seems the quest for love in Japan is no easy game.Top 20 things Japanese men do that mystify Japanese women
