Unfortunately the belief that "men cannot control themselves" still persists in Japan. Especially among older generations of men. I often hear, when watching Japanese variety shows and even from Japanese male coworkers, about how men cannot be expected to control themselves if they see women with larger breasts or 'sex appeal'. It's frustrating. Thankfully, the younger generation seems to have a better handle on it.
@@xxx_putin_has_a_flaccid_pe5374 This is the default view of women in Abrahamic religions. It was never "adopted" in the west, this *was* the west, untill very recently when female liberation gave women the courage to not dress in entirely concealing clothing. Dress in booty-shorts 100 years ago, and everyone will assume you are either a permiscues homwrecker trying to temp men, or are a professional hooker trying to non-verbally advertise your profesional services.
"Thankfully... ... better handel on it." I.E., retreated to their Otaku man-caves to live out their instinctual desires virtually absent of the judging gaze of society.
After watching a bunch of your videos, I will never forget how the Fujiwara clans married their children into the imperial court and got power over it for 2000 years.
If I had a boyfriend I would never cheat. But I understand that cheating was normal when you married to a man you don't love. Oi thanks for this video ♡
I guess that why man don,t wanna marry afterall the sad excuse - after divorce 1/2- alimony & most child fraud case will leave them at rock bottom ☕ Beauty fade with time the everlasting thing require never ending more so the mutual which beyond current generation understanding - like you said you think it,s simply a copeing mechanism you want you bf to have - anyway the thing are going marriage will most likely become history
@@thebillionthuser Because "love" isn't what western people raised on Disney movies and rom coms have made it out to be, that version of love is an unhealthy delusion that psychologically and emotionally trap people in unhealthy relationships. Anyone that has been in love more than once should know it's not some magical once in a lifetime one unique soulmate kind of thing like we're taught here, but even by the second third and forth time many of us still manage to delude ourselves by telling ourselves "but those times weren't real love like this one is, since they didn't last for ever it must have been fake love, this time it's totally real though even though I can't tell the difference". It's incredible how deluded we are in this regard. Modern monogamy isn't about love at all, it's about loyalty. And loyalty is more like a contractual obligation rooted in the concept of honor, a concept many of us westerners consider obsolete even though it's one of the most fundamental pillars of civilization.
Japan is more than merely Anime, after all. Hey, Linfamy, if you see this, do you ever want to talk modern affairs (Political/Societal ones, not romantic ones) in Japan? I want to know what's going on in Japan right now, in a digestible format, like yours. Make your usual cartoons for visual context of the subject. Ancient History is great, but I really want to know what's happening beyond Anime in Ramenland. 🇯🇵
This gives some context for men in the stories I read constantly saying "it's your fault for being so beautiful." I'm really interested in how Japanese culture has mixed with Western culture since from what I can tell, it was like Western culture was forced upon them over a short period so their overall culture would look more like water and oil rather than something evenly mixed.
New drinking game! Every time Linfamy says "The Fujiwara famously married their daughters into the Imperial Family" or something like that, take a shot of saki
You mention the fujiwara clan in literally every video. Haha.. I will really miss it if you don't. Oh and more folktalessss!!!! I'm in love with those and how thoroughly and humorously you narrate and draw them.. and also.. thanks for the videos. They always make my day. 😁😁😁
So interesting to see different cultures' take on sex. Christianity doesn't see sex as bad or impure, it's just that sex should be between the married couple only for various theological and practical reasons. I think some of this Heian culture has impacted Japan's society today as well - I saw a street interview where they said it's common for pple to cheat even after being married (and it's sort of expected).
Sexually free but a man could kill his wife if he caught her in the act, and if a man assaulted a woman he was shamed but the woman was still to blame, dang they had some confusing standings on sex in the Heian Era.
I've seen a Japanese reality show about unique architectural house, one episode, the husband and wife have different bedrooms. I guess that "living separately" culture after marriage still survived to a degree
man, i love your videos!~ i'm learning so much about Japan! this helps my Japanese learning skills as well, as culture and language are strictly connected!
I read once that the old name for love in Japanese language (or its original meaning) was ‘koi’ which means “lonely sadness”. This was replaced by the word (I think) ‘renai’ which means “romantic love” and was a concept imported from the West. Nice vid man:)

The interesting thing is, even today, sadness can be beautiful. Like a song that makes you feel such an intense joy or sorrow that it is almost painful, or a moment in a movie that makes you empathize with the characters and cry. Or a vista that is so beautiful you ache inside because you can't process everything it makes you feel.
I am new to these videos, I have seen like 3, and I already have the fact that "Fujiwara clan famously married their daughters into the imperial family" wedged deeply into my brain
Yeah ... but their diet was horrible. They weren't allowed to eat most meat so they often had vitamin deficiencies. Plus this was before Japan figured out bathing was wonderful. So it stank. But hey, this is just something I read so I could be wrong. I wouldn't want to live back then for a single day.
Linfamy Then could the heir be the child of a lover? Or did they make sure that the heir and other children of the husband were his? Than you for your amazing videos by the way!
@@mariavi33 It depends if the husband will raise the child as his or make the world known of his wife's affair. The wife or the male lover can be shamed especially if the lover was of a lower status. Some women cannot bear the sin of being impregnated through an extramarital affair and would renounce the world and become nuns. The Tale of Genji details this kind of events. An example is with Genji impregnating one of the emperor's consorts. The emperor did not acknowledge the affair (the child became an heir to the throne) and the consort renounced the world by becoming a nun. 2nd was when Genji's 3rd and youngest wife was raped by an ardent suitor, he got angry with the man but raised the child as his own and kept his wife's tragic assault a secret. The wife, however, suffered psychologically and became a nun. Genji didn't let the man rest until he died of shame and regret.
"...huge man vacuum" "...racing your Micheal Phelps' " bruh your gonna kill me with these Also, 6:10 sounds almost entirely like twitter/tumblr sadposting
Crazy question since you want to keep bringing up the Fujiwara clan. They're starting to sound a lot like the Hapsburgs who married their children into all the royal families of Europe. They were also insanely inbred. Am I right to assume that, after marrying their daughters into only one royal family for 200 years, the Fujiwara clan had the same problem?
Honestly, since marriage wasn't out of love and commitment between two people back then I wouldn't even consider it cheating. They were marrying out of business relations and whatnot and not because they were devoted to one another so the fact that they would seek out that love, affection or care from someone else seems normal to me. It wasn't necessarily expected to be loyal to that one person emotionally, mentally or physically so I feel like calling it cheating isn't very correct. I would see them as having poly-amorous relationships more because there wasn't a huge expectation of monogamy. It's different now because a majority of people marry out of devotion and love to one another so that's when going outside for sex, love, affection, etc isn't accepted because it means that you are going behind on your word to stay devoted to that one person and receive those things from that one person only (if that's what they both decided on). I like how the women were also allowed to do so to a certain extent, although they were given less sexual freedom than men in ways, at least they were still allowed to do? I know in a lot of poly religions/culture even to this day it's only the men that are allowed to and it seems really unfair for the women imo lol.
Yes it was definitely more like polyamorous relationships. Although there was that weird quirk where men were like, "but don't let me catch you with someone else!" Super unfair since the men were going around humping everything.
@@Linfamy Unfortunately I think that weird quirk is extremely common among men all around the world. Even in countries/cultures/religions that are far more sexually open and free for both sexes, there's those few that still don't want their wife/girlfriend to be with another man when they are with other women and it really comes down to the inferiority of women. Even during times when women were considered to be more valuable than men (in terms of being able to marry upwards in social hierarchies in certain periods in Japanese history, I can't remember which specific ones XD) there's still that ownership and inferiority that underlies it all because it's so deeply ingrained. Besides the issue with men forcing themselves on women and women being blamed for it, I give Japan props for allowing women to be more sexually expressive during those times and not being super restrictive like in the western world!
Hi Linfamy! You didn't mention the average Japanese person too much, besides servants. I know that it is common in history to only have much information on the elite/aristocrats so I understand the likely reason for the focus on aristocracy. If you want to share any findings or conclusions you made about the larger population as well in videos that'd be nice to see!
I'd love to talk more about the commoners. Unfortunately I couldn't find much info on peasants in the Heian 😔. Much of what I found, I included in a previous video about the life of heian peasants.
"The Fujiwara clan famously married their daughters into the imperial family, allowing them control over the Heian court for 200 years." "The cult of Booty" You, sir, are hilarious. You should be a TV documentary narrator.
Maybe the real marriage of the Fujiwara into the Imperial family securing securing control over the Heian court for 200 years was all of the friends we made along the way
As a Theravada Buddhist (dnt knw much about the Mahayana Buddhism practiced in Japan) is tolerant of sexual conduct within marriage. Sexual conduct outside of marriage is a sin. But within marriage or outside of marriage attachment is considered as a roadblock towards Nirvana (which ,to put in the simplest possible terms, is not having any attachments to anything whatsoever)...so having sex as a just another parr of life and living with the understanding tht sexual pleasure is also as temporary as any other pleasure is ok for laymen.
@@alex_zetsu yeah but we also got innocent men having their life destroyed because some feminist decided after the fact she considered her male hairdresser moving her ears to get at the hair rape or some shit like that
Great video! A lot of this etiquette and social structures seem parellel to western medieval stuff and courtly love. Of course not 1 to 1, but similar. The sad thing is, nowadays it’s in fashion to bemone western things as simply sexist or whatever instead of going into the nuances of it like you did here.
So I am actually a huge fan of you, and I would really appreciate if you could have pinned meh comment but it’s fine if u don’t so I am actually really happy being early

The emperor did not acknowledge the affair (the child became an heir to the throne) and the consort renounced the world by becoming a nun. 2nd was when Genji's 3rd and youngest wife was raped by an ardent suitor, he got angry with the man but raised the child as his own and kept his wife's tragic assault a secret. The wife, however, suffered psychologically and became a nun. Genji didn't let the man rest until he died of shame and regret.
@@myuudee Yikes i guess they cared more about their status and image in a scandal and just bit their lip and accepted the child as their own.

"The fujiwara clan married their daughters in imperial families and gain control over the heian court for 200 years"
I'm sensing a pattern here
Crazy question since you want to keep bringing up the Fujiwara clan. They're starting to sound a lot like the Hapsburgs who married their children into all the royal families of Europe. They were also insanely inbred. Am I right to assume that, after marrying their daughters into only one royal family for 200 years, the Fujiwara clan had the same problem?
Honestly, since marriage wasn't out of love and commitment between two people back then I wouldn't even consider it cheating. They were marrying out of business relations and whatnot and not because they were devoted to one another so the fact that they would seek out that love, affection or care from someone else seems normal to me. It wasn't necessarily expected to be loyal to that one person emotionally, mentally or physically so I feel like calling it cheating isn't very correct. I would see them as having poly-amorous relationships more because there wasn't a huge expectation of monogamy. It's different now because a majority of people marry out of devotion and love to one another so that's when going outside for sex, love, affection, etc isn't accepted because it means that you are going behind on your word to stay devoted to that one person and receive those things from that one person only (if that's what they both decided on). I like how the women were also allowed to do so to a certain extent, although they were given less sexual freedom than men in ways, at least they were still allowed to do? I know in a lot of poly religions/culture even to this day it's only the men that are allowed to and it seems really unfair for the women imo lol.
Yes it was definitely more like polyamorous relationships. Although there was that weird quirk where men were like, "but don't let me catch you with someone else!"
Super unfair since the men were going around humping everything.
@@Linfamy Unfortunately I think that weird quirk is extremely common among men all around the world. Even in countries/cultures/religions that are far more sexually open and free for both sexes, there's those few that still don't want their wife/girlfriend to be with another man when they are with other women and it really comes down to the inferiority of women. Even during times when women were considered to be more valuable than men (in terms of being able to marry upwards in social hierarchies in certain periods in Japanese history, I can't remember which specific ones XD) there's still that ownership and inferiority that underlies it all because it's so deeply ingrained. Besides the issue with men forcing themselves on women and women being blamed for it, I give Japan props for allowing women to be more sexually expressive during those times and not being super restrictive like in the western world!
I absolutely love your video's keep up the good work Linfamy
Thank you 😁👍
I'm addicted to this channel now :') keep it up!
Crack is my middle name
Great video as always!
I really like your channel cause it has made learning about the history of Japan so easy and fun! Keep up with the good work😁
Thanks for the kind words :)
As always, interesting! Also, those letters are hilarious!
0:10 - It is not an affair, nor cheating if its an open relationship or expected.
Are we just ganna ignore the letter at 6:18 where it says "Look here b*tch, I married my uncle stfu up" 😂😂😂😭
Hi Linfamy! You didn't mention the average Japanese person too much, besides servants. I know that it is common in history to only have much information on the elite/aristocrats so I understand the likely reason for the focus on aristocracy. If you want to share any findings or conclusions you made about the larger population as well in videos that'd be nice to see!
I'd love to talk more about the commoners. Unfortunately I couldn't find much info on peasants in the Heian 😔. Much of what I found, I included in a previous video about the life of heian peasants.
@@Linfamy ah! I'll have to take a look at that.
I endlessly cry over this video and channel...
"The Fujiwara clan famously married their daughters into the imperial family, allowing them control over the Heian court for 200 years."
"The cult of Booty"
You, sir, are hilarious. You should be a TV documentary narrator.
I just discovered your channel and is freaking amazing! Excellent job!
They did not really have "jealous" emotion back then ...
Time for me to enjoy another video from you this week!
Hope it is not disappointing :p
And also the fact that rape was (and still is) considered an act of "Kegare" ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kegare ).
Whenever Linfamy says the fujiwara line i always get reminded with Chicka Fujiwara
Okay fine you guys made me look up chika fujiwara 😅
@@Linfamy we've don it bois
1:06 "heart me" I see you, you sneaky snek!
Good eye 💗
@@Linfamy gracias!

"Look here bcht I married my uncle so stfu"
Me: *does a spit take and dies of laughing*
😅
They swapped Letters and poems as we swap SaLiVa
I come here for jokes end up learning Japanese history
Maybe the real marriage of the Fujiwara into the Imperial family securing securing control over the Heian court for 200 years was all of the friends we made along the way
What’s with the Mickey Mouse ears
Dunno..
As a Theravada Buddhist (dnt knw much about the Mahayana Buddhism practiced in Japan) is tolerant of sexual conduct within marriage. Sexual conduct outside of marriage is a sin. But within marriage or outside of marriage attachment is considered as a roadblock towards Nirvana (which ,to put in the simplest possible terms, is not having any attachments to anything whatsoever)...so having sex as a just another parr of life and living with the understanding tht sexual pleasure is also as temporary as any other pleasure is ok for laymen.
I was born in the wrong generation, and the wrong culture
We got the internet tho
Well, the sexuality norms are tighter nowadays, but we have indoor plumbing, refrigerated food transport, computer games so...
@@alex_zetsu yeah, i have to reluctantly choose the present
Amen to that.
@@alex_zetsu yeah but we also got innocent men having their life destroyed because some feminist decided after the fact she considered her male hairdresser moving her ears to get at the hair rape or some shit like that
Liked before watching.
I approve of this method
I laughed so hard at the vow of silence
I love how it is written in corner :

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Linfamy: You know what used to be beutifull? Sadness.
Now it's just depressing
@@Linfamy Oh my god
This video in one sentence: "i dont want to play with you anymore" *drops toy
Great video! A lot of this etiquette and social structures seem parellel to western medieval stuff and courtly love. Of course not 1 to 1, but similar. The sad thing is, nowadays it’s in fashion to bemone western things as simply sexist or whatever instead of going into the nuances of it like you did here.
love your videos on women! They're so fun!
I love how the Fujiwara clan gets mentioned in almost every video-
So we just going to keep talking about the messed up romance in the Heian period for rich people,ok.
AGAIN ANOTHER GREAT VID!
Thank you!
It's like the beauty back in the day is the modern Kawaii
6:15 such beautiful poems
Cheating in exam must be an act of courage and noble in this era. Not so bad bruh.
Yeah... that's what we're talkin about
I may not know a lot of stuff but what I DO know is that the fujiwara clan famously married their daughters into the imperial family
back then sex and open affair was a daily thing in japan, nowadays handholding is considered lewd
It's kind of weird in modern Japan because I also hear that there's a lot of cheating going on
Nice clip. Yesterday i watch History of Japan #1 to #41
Wowww that's quite the binge 🤣👍
well was my off day. I had the afthoon for my self.
Sounds like a good day :p
Hearing about the Fujiwara clan is starting to be like reminding me that 2b2t is Minecraft's oldest running anarchy server.
Linfamy: :)

Glad you like the videos! I can heart you instead 😉👍
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH LINFAMY IM ACTUALLY CRYING 😭
Don't cry tho 🤣

Yeah, you have some explaining to do
Cheating? Immortal?
Japanese: Well yes but actually no
Immortal cheaters are the worst
No one:
Linfamy: Fujiwara clan famously married their girls to the Imperial family
Now, it does not seem correct to call it cheating when everyone is aware and ok about it.
I feel like the fujiwara clan pay him to put them in the video lol
1:45 - *#ReverseHarem**#* :P
ohhh The Dudes, boii u got me there..
