Green-eyed Geisha
I checked the Green-eyed Geisha and she is very interesting to say the least. Here is blurb from her:
"Foreign (at least to some people) twenty-something living with my Japanese beau in Tokyo. I work at a big Japanese company that sometimes feels like the twilight zone in which I must repeat the mantra "I am not the office bitch, nor am I a freak!" to help me get through the day. I'm not sure how this blog is going to turn out but seeing as everyone and their uncle seems to have at least one these days, thought I'd jump on the bandwagon. Oh and the fact that I need a vent before I drive myself crazy."
[ad]I read her post on Lady Guard and I must say that she is on point with the obsession that "usually" thin Japanese women have with their body weight. It drives me crazy to the point the I usually, no ALWAYS, comment that you are not frickin' fat so stop with the B.S. Talking to women the size of a number two pencil about body mass, bra sizes (yes, bra sizes), or the size of foreign women butts and boobs drives me to frickin' drink. Wait! Now that I see this in print, this doesn't seem so bad. Anyway, I mean come on, I had a woman with no bumps and no hump fret over how fat she was getting. Being in a room with women that had curves in excess of legal limits for some men made me feel uncomfortable. At any rate, check out what the Green-eyed Geisha has to say! I'm just a dude with an afro that love ALL women, no matter what shape or size!"I've talked a little bit about the ladies of Japan before and just what it entails to be a lady in this fair city. There are a veritable host of products with the word "lady" in the title aimed at us and just waiting to be picked up from a drugstore shelf by a manicured and bejewelled hand. Today I'm going to introduce you to Lady Guard, a new anti-pee product from Kowa. These pills are 9mm in diameter (the website is very clear about the size so we know they will fit down our lady-sized throats) and when taken just three times a day you won't have to use the bathroom so frequently! Isn't this something we all worry about?[ad]According to Kowa's "study" of over 1000 ladies,around 60% reported having to go upwards of 8 times a day and more than once in the middle of the night. Kowa's pretty pink website tells us we don't have to worry about this kind of thing alone any more. Well thank god for that! Before I go any further however, I would like to say that I am not making fun of people who actually have health issues when it comes to this kind of thing but the masses of people here who blow everything out of proportion."[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lv-Z-UmqGu4&eurl=http://greeneyedgeisha.blogspot.com/2009/01/lady-guard.html[/youtube]Read the rest of the Green-eyed Geisha's post here.[ad]
