"my childs character is way more important to me than his sexual orientation" 👏👏👏
i actually heard about the reaserch that gay is genetic, which make it passed down to next generation. But idk the exact explanation
Tony Hazama very doubtful
@@ifanbenmedz not really....being gay is being interested in guys right? So it's just taste isn't it?
@@yvonne3745 it's not just a taste...Taste is something you can change, but being a gay is your nature. It's genetic.
@Matthew Matousek abuse
"I've never talked to a gay person".
friend's stare *I n t e n s i f i e s*
Gays and Lesbians are human too - no difference okay - in fact, gay people are more direct, friendly and more understanding to take care of you if you give him an opportunity to know you more. I have many gay and Lesbians friends and they're fantastic to go out for a chat, coffee, and dinner.
@@Diamond18116 did you really said that gay people are better?
@Voition_Light I think what he actually tried to say is, that they are more understanding and tolerant, since they know how it is to be avoided and teased. At least that's what I think he/she meant.
shrapnel lol was thinking the same thing too. Bless him.
Whoever contributes more to the betterment of society is the better person, regardless of any physical, mental, spiritual, or psychological "differences".
I love how the mom in white looked at her daughter with a proud face, that clearly said: "yup, I raised her well..."
Jajjaja I see I'm no the only one who thinks that
I realized that as well
I wanna cry
i really want her as a mom right now
i wish she was my mom
"I'm worried that this child will become a victim of this society"
So... How about we stop raising victimizers?
@Inw RUclips U can't change your sexuality, you're born with it, you will live with it for the rest of your life.
It's literally the same me telling you to stop being Straight.
Anas Tak then why can I change genders or to an damn attack helicopter
"Live and let Live" Have you guys heard about this saying? As long as what a person does doesn't cause any damage to other I don't see why we should worry about who they sleep with, what they identify as or how they carry their lives. Simple as that.
Spoiled Milk what you’re saying doesn’t make any sense. The reason why people are gay is because of their level of testosterones and hormones in their body and there’s scientific proof that some people are naturally born gay.
skfoxjrxzz so you’re saying it’s a disease....that their hormones are out of wack when they were born and that’s why they’re gay. Kinda like how someone was born with type 1 diabetes because their insulin levels are out of wack...a disease
I was immediately in love with the ladies at the beginning, who talked about sad orphans who are lonely to be adopted by people who want them.
Pavine C. I wish the LGBT members would actually go adopt them instead of inventing ways to create new ones. When I get older I rather adopt one than produce a new one. I rather give a home to a child that doesn’t have than create a new child. Like the lgbt is perfect for adopting children. I just wonder if the orphanage rate dropped since lgbt got more popular
Rain I’ll admit I didn’t know it was illegal for them to adopt which is probably why surrogate mothers exist which I absolutely disagree with that 100%. I hope they change some laws around and let lgbt couples adopt children bc they need homes! Poor children lost their families and just want people to love them doesn’t matter their sexual orientation as long as they aren’t abusive and crazy then it shouldn’t matter.
Rain mmm wait a minute... I’m reading up info on surrogate mothers... mmm I think they plant some embryo( irk yet how that works) have it develop in her. Ahh ok. As long as a women isn’t getting paid to give people her biological children then it doesn’t bother me at all. As long as it isn’t somehow biologically hers.
I disagree, guys I would like for you to keep an open mind if you are gonna read this. And I hope I don't offend anyone. Your biology has built in mechanisms for the mother and for the father. How we develop depends on a lot of factors including the parents we have. I don't think it's healthy for children to have gay parents. Neurologically speaking there are specific areas of the brain that increase/decrease in activity depending on the gender of the parents and you can say the same about the hormones released. Now, I briefly discussed the science, now logically speaking, orphans should be brought up with parents of both genders, the child has a role model for their own gender and understands and appreciates the other gender and learns the tendencies of both genders and how to interact with both properly. No offense to anyone, what better way for this to occur than parents that are of male and female? LGBT+ parents would have severe consequences on the population (which is ageing) and the productivity of the economy (which is dependent on the well being of the work force). The social foundations of civilization had been built with these opposite sex marriages. Why attempt to dismantle it.
Banning LGBTQ+ outright is wrong, but allowing them to disrupt the economy and the entirety of the population including many orphans that deserve a good life, is wrong also. Society, civilization, humanity has progressed so far opposite sex marriages and their families. No offense to anyone. I do want to hear any arguements to this.
@bad bad mc bad I'd like to see the source where this was proven if you don't mind.
"My child's character would be way more important to me than his sexual orientation."
Words of wisdom everyone should live by.
Sorry, not my fault I can’t live by them, I’m just not their neighbor.
A child's sexual orientation is a literal feature of their character. The woman here draws a false split between the two.
Sexual orientation does not have innate impact on personality as far as I know. Definitely it can in some sense such as psychosocial but implying all those with some other sexual orientation follow a deep set seperate culture is a falsehood itself. The two play hand in hand but they aren't definite causation or anything
Jin Rei Gin 1000 like
Gona correct this, "my child's welfare and character is far more important than any aspect of my life"
the older guy is more concerned for the child well-being rather than people being gay. sir I applaud you
the way he spoke about it didn't make sense though, people forget that gender roles is what makes them believe that the man + woman combination is the only one that can provide good parenting
All change is difficult. I can imagine that same argument being made for giving Women the right to vote. Just because change is hard doesn’t mean it’s not essential.
Kay it does, bullying and being an outcast for any reason has an implact on a kid.
Having gay parents would’ve definitely been a reason to tease or bully someone for, getting bullied has different impacts on each kid so i think its a valid worry.
Kay my bad bruh
船越勇貴 it’s not unnatural it’s fine for people to feel like that and it reduces the amount of orphans

Pple still use grinder
those two old men actually had an open mind and proper arguments with backing experience, which is way better than any underhanded and baseless homophobia imo
maybe they're living in the past, we're growing as a society where it's understandable if you had two dads. If you raise kids not to make fun of differences the problem would be eradicated. When he was little, yes it would be a problem.
I think they are still homophobic, just not in a hateful way. They're uncomfortable with it and don't understand it, and that's a failure of society in general. Things are getting better now though
@@ytusername1 he is homophobic because he said that "it's not normal"
Still a better reaction than what you would get in other less accepting parts of the world
@@emmett1902 that's incredibly untrue. Sounds more like you've been buying into propaganda.
Think about this: My parents are straight. Almost everybody I knew growing up was straight. Every piece of media I consumed as a kid was full of straight couples. I turned out gay.
Do you seriously think if it was possible to influence sexuality like that I would still be gay?
One thing is for sure japanese is the most polite and smart when answering this kind of question. They answer the way that didnt want to hurt someone's feeling.
@bad bad mc bad It's not intelligence, it's empathy. You can speak your mind without being crass about it. There's no need to be an edgelord all the time.
Trust me, most are harsh, atleast in Osaka
rodolf seobal that’s good and true :3
Yeah... That's because Japanese people don't speak their minds. In many cases not even to their closest family or friends. When interviewing people about a controversial subject like this it's impossible to know if they are sharing their true beliefs. Japanese people are always looking for social cues to tell them what the people they are talking to want to hear. It's pretty obvious when someone comes up to you with a microphone and a camera asking your opinions about the LGBT community that they are pro-LGBT.
Ikr
Every problem they mention about it is actually caused because of society itself and not from the fact that there is a gay couple adopting a kid. That's funny and sad.
Lucas Muniz it’s unfortunately a common thing in japan. Some companies don’t hire certain gender identities and ethnicities not because they themselves are sexist or anything, but because other people might have a problem with it.
Yea. 99% of the problems there are because people are worried what other people might think. It’s so rigid.
It's sad, gay people are a minority it's not as if they are taking over the world , besides the world population is way too hhigh.
Lucas Muniz why the thought of normal family is sad?:) yes, it is true, that it may be quite a lot of time to sociaty to have thought about gays family, but I think the family itself was made for two persons to born a child, it is blood relations, that gays never may have. In Japan and Greace the was a gay couples, but one of them must be a husband, must to have kids, but he may have boy for playing sexual games. But even there there was not any gay families, what for?
@@lactoseintolerart and it's funny cause they all seem excepting too but they are too afraid that it isn't for others
"Normal family consist of a mother and a father and kids"
Single mothers & father: *excuse me*
SomeLove nothing to excuse
Every child has a mother and a father, even gay children. It is the only normal family whether you want to believe in some fake social reconstruction or not. Single parent households are not ideal situations, they are unfortunately sometimes unavoidable. Anyone with any honesty will admit that a family with both mother and father is the most ideal Form of a family.
SomeLove who said single parents are good?
@@sufisuf1975 no one said anything
SomeLove no one said it, but you implied it with your comment.
"my child character is more important than his/her sexuality"
-well said white dressed lady
And then everyone argues that being gay means automatic good character because they will be "more understanding and accepting" so which one is it?
@@OnlyNattysatUSC44 being more understanding and accepting doesn't make a character good!
What a lovely answer: I'll do my best to make my child happy."
I love how honest and open-minded the Japanese are. Even the older guys said they'd ultimate want their kids to be happy. And the other young man said he just can't relate to them, instead of something repulsive.
So cool! Way more open-minded than I expected!
Anything that is against Jesus Christ, will always be supported by the majority of people.
Well that was a topic change!
k
The Imp0ssible Wanting kids to be happy is brainwashed?
I actually thought those two men were quite accepting and non-hateful considering their age and the typical attitudes elder people in the west have towards LGBT issues. Sure, they might've said that they didn't think it was normal and don't agree with it, but even despite that they said they'd still accept it if their children came out to them as LGBT. Most homophobic people in Western society think that way on the basis of religion, whereas for Japanese people its more to do with ignorance, and therefore even most homophobic people in Japan don't seem to be as HATEFUL as those in other countries. Then again, it is a country known for bullying in a school environment, so I don't know how kids would react to it.
Homosexuality has existed forever. It doesn't "grow," it's the acceptance of the people that grows. Mind that.
Jasmine Johnson we have a culture of shame. a person will not openly say something like that due to the potential backlash of it, but ask these questions on anonymous japanese forums? completely different answers
I did not say that homosexuality never existed before.I'm saying it grows because of our social acceptance to it.You could say the same for necrophilia,incest,zoophilia,and so on.Homosexuality existed in certain cultures (namely,Greek and the Ottoman era),and it made them emasculated,which eventually resulted in their downfall.
You racism/superiority complex is in open display, Jasmine.
God instilled a sense of gender into us humans when he created Adam and Eve on the 6th day.
Yeah in most of the societies that follow the desert religions they will say "if my son is gay I will kill him."
The girls that said children of gay couples will just be more accepting and understanding are my new favourite people THAT IS WHAT PEOPLE NEED TO HEAR
There's no proof of that... I have had gay people tell me that orientation does NOT define character. Stop treating gay people as if there aliens. They just want to be treated equal
@@OnlyNattysatUSC44
In study's it's shown that gay couple are much more positive and maluable towards orphan kids
They are odd ones out to so they sympathys with the kid
Unlike a lot of straight couples who come to orphanages cause they can't produce kids and are tired and chose adoption as they're last resort
The straights are more likely to treat it like a cheap less quality version of a child
And they would be less valuable when it comes to care
There are straights who do adopt first but it's a very small amount compared to the gays
@@tourmelion9221 There are also studies which show that children raised by homosexual couples are much more likely to be sexually abused than those raised by normal parents. Also the arguments that you made are completely baseless and just on an imaginary scenario.
that also depend on how the parent teach they children man...
As a member of the community I'm not sure that's true lol. I've witnessed a lot of racism and was shocked because I thought we would be more accepting of people's differences but let's hope.

I love how he interjected “I wouldn’t go as far to say I’d be devastated...”
Haha I thought the same, he had that "ahhh jeez, here he goes again" look on his face 😂
Japan actually had very liberal attitudes towards homosexuality prior to the Meiji Restoration. During the Meiji Restoration, Emperor Meiji adopted a Victorian sense of morality by cracking down on homosexuality, shared baths, uncensored pornography, etc. to avoid being labeled as "uncivilized perverts" by the Puritan West and being labeled as a potential target for colonization.
Victorian values have been so deeply engrained into Japanese culture that many aren't even aware of this anymore and blindly follow it. Right-wing, nationalist politicians who claim to be defending Japanese culture are actually inadvertently doing the opposite by defending such Victorian values.
That's EXACTLY the case of homosexuality in India. Majority is Hindu and Hinduism legitimises homosexuality, but islamic invaders and then Victorianisation during Colonialism negatively affected the society's views about it. And just like you said, many people hate it in the name of protecting the culture quite unaware of our cultural tolerability towards the matter. But most of our population has fortunately bounced back from this backward mindset!
Definitely, the the lesbian, trans and gay samurais are legendary , and the Kabuki and Takarazuka actor/actresses till nowadays.
It's odd really!
There were many previous civilisations that were tolerant of homosexuality, it's simply the more recent, arbitrary condemnation of it that means we have to have these discussions.
@@BatraSahb same
Do you have any evidence for that claim?
Skimming Wikipedia shows nothing.
“We’ll go extinct” well with the state of the world right now, I’m not sure if that’s a bad thing or not
Imagine thinking that just because some people are gay, everyone is gay and we'll all go extinct. Lol
"I’m not sure if that’s a bad thing or not"
Maybe grow up and chill out, lol. The world has never been better. The barrage of media stories over-inflates the negative feelings in our brains.
Japan already has this problem, like gay people aren't causing it.

0:45 I expected them to say either "It's bad because LGBT people shouldn't adopt kids" or "It's a good thing because LGBTs should have the same rights" but I really didn't expect her to say, that it is a good thing for the children to have parents and a family. It's not a typical answer in interviews about this topic.

askjiir heteros don’t want them obviously
@@DrJones20 yet you still can see a lot of abandoned kids, so many hetero couples, yes...

Let me tell you; korea really doesn't work out. I'd say japanese people are waaaaayyyy more accepting or either way being ignorant (in a good way, like not wanting to get involved to other people's business(and in this case sexual orientation)) while koreans more likely judge and being nosy abt people

4:05 her mother looks so happy at her, that she raised her kid like that and when a man with a camera asks her kid about this subject, her kid is so openminded.. its really heartwarming to see that
They don’t care that there child came out the closet, they care how society will treat them about it
Oliver Govrik their reputation of a perfect family
Kingfckn Cole partly due to the fact that gay couples divorce rate is higher than heterosexual couples because their are less mating partners which leads to desperation to find somebody. Creating a more stressed or sad person. The parent wants a life full of happiness for their child but that is less likely for a gay person
@@olliepopAMV how do you know happiness is higher among hetero couples though? Just because they are not divorced doesnt mean they are happy. In Japan, many women are expected to be full-time housewives after marriage and lose economic independence as a result. So they stay in marriage because that's their "job" instead of a relationship. Also, if you want your child to be happier, gay or not, one main thing to do is to accepts who they are/their feelings about themselves, instead of denying it/claiming that those feelings are "bad for you" it will only hurt them further
yu cheung both sides and both premises are right. You must accept your child who you they are while still having in your mind that due to the objective fact of having less mating partners, you are more likely to become desperate and act a certain way for acceptance in the gay community. Desperation from a small mating pool selection is very sad
Oliver Govrik I've heard the exact opposite actually
Doesn't seem much different to Australian views. older people not approving in big numbers. younger people are always much more accepting.
This is a prime example of the evolution of human beings, and how our judgmental thoughts change when controversial awareness spreads throughout the world. We're still in a state of confusion, dealing with other gender-fluid issues, but the next generation may even accept or come to an understanding of what with these "changes" mean to humanity. People from the older generation, most of them, are forever ignorant on their views and perspectives of the opposite individual, because they were brainwashed by the masses when their parents were quickly to judge. That's why the most of the world governments are so fucked, the leaders (Trump) are too close minded and prefer to stay in their time bubble, that do not respect other cultures for what they represent. In my "philosophy", I believe adapting to the concept of "cause and effect" is the key to conquering what is meant to be "different" is another step towards acceptance.
or perhaps older people have greater wisdom and experience than us and base their positions off that rather than just going with what's hot and new?
idk just trying to challenge your response but like yeah
In certain other issues, I would agree with you, but not on the issue of LGBT people - at least, from my personal experience. I find that there are many elderly who base their opinions on "natural order" (as opposed to religious opposition) - that is, something along the lines of "male-female couples are the only possible form of marriage" or "[a certain country] has never historically had same sex relationships/the people of [a certain country] should not be homosexual". Most notably, even those from Asia holds these views in spite of the fact that homosexuality is well documented in places like India and China.
In this I find that the elderly are usually not well informed enough of the history of homosexuality in the country that they talk about, as opposed to them opposing it based upon greater wisdom or experience. Similarly, those who claim that homosexuality rising in Europe is an indication of European's degeneracy base their arguments on a flawed premise, since, before the arrival of Christian missionaries to Asia, while the Asians were participating in homosexuality without much punishments, the countries that hold the Christian faith were persecuting homosexuals everywhere they find them. It is for this reason I find the belief of the non-existence of homosexuality in both Asia and Europe in medieval times strange.
Generation Z are growing up to become our grandparents tf, This generation is and going to be the most conservative generation just like the silent generation

This was really interesting to watch. My people tend to be quite prejudiced and close-minded. Case in point, when I brought my first girlfriend, who was Filipino/Chinese, home, my grandma told me, "if you marry that girl, I'm not going to the wedding!" Then when I came home with my first tattoo, which was just 島本 and each character was only 1" (2.54 cm) tall...that same grandma asked me if I was in the yakuza now! LOL. Luckily, her daughter, my mom, was EXTREMELY accepting when I came out to her in 1997...so accepting that she asked me, "between you and your boyfriend, who's the top and who's the bottom?" Haha. So there's hope for our people to be more accepting of the 🏳️🌈 community. 😁
This is a wholesome story ❤
Lol, so my grandparents occasionally make jokes about me not being allowed to marry a Japanese man, but they only got funnier once I came out. Although, you guys DID cheat off our alphabet, so
Awe this is actually so sweet though. Also I definitely get the older Japanese people not liking the idea of tattoos. Even my mom (who is very progressive and is okay with me getting tattoo) admitted that she does associate tattoos with the Yakuza and being banned from onsens😂😂
@@aristired6252 Yeah, and that was just my first one, 2 letters that are about 1 in fall....now I have SHIMAMOTO in large, calligraphy lettering going across the top of my back...MASAMI in a different font going down my right tricep...MICHIOKA (mom’s family name) on the left lateral deltoid...and my favourite one, a large koi on my right shoulder, and my tattoo artist drew it by hand and went around the 島本.

@@nxxxlooo5726 many yaoi manga's/anime aren't good to and make gay people in a pretty weird ways mostly sexual it ends up(other than a few)
No its actually like 4.5%-6%. At most 8% if we include closet cases.
Japans numbers are extremely high compared to most places. Especially the US where its the numbers i stated earlier.
Another thing no one considers is bisexuals. Many bi people might just identify as straight. If the number is 10% then that would mostly be bi people not gay people, because bisexuals are (obviously) the largest group in the LGBT community.
@@thekoalakingdomshow6319 I would feel safer as a gay in Japan than in the US. I would fear for my life in some parts of Korea. There are plenty of cross dressers new halfs and onnagatas in Japan who could often be bartenders or hostesses (the regular ones). If you exclude bi-sexuals then perhaps it is lower.
5:01 hoping all fathers and grandfathers “I’ll do my best to make my child happy” I get it they want straight children but if they are gay they will understand it
"I'll do my best to make my child happy!"
that's is what means to be a parent!! :)
I loved that old man response . You might not understand it , you might feel worried about their sexual orientation and their future , but since things can get tough because of others prejudices , a parent has to support their children and and be there for them .
To be honest, I expected the older people to be way less accepting/prejudiced. Even that guy who said he would be devastated if his child was gay said he would ultimately accept it. I know plenty of people who would do otherwise. Maybe you were just lucky in getting some generally more accepting people but I think it shows just how far society is moving forward.

Even the older Japanese people are more accepting than many christians here in the US of lgbt. I know people that have been kicked out of the house by parents and disowned.
Why would I need or want acceptance from ANY religious people, muslims or christians pretty much have the same reaction to gays overall in the US. Actually christians protest against gays more than muslims. Aside from that, I'm not gay personally, I just see how they are treated, and here in the US, christians are the extreme majority, so overall, gays are treated worse by christians than by muslims. Such as things like this, for example. www.latimes.com/nation/nationnow/la-na-gay-man-church-20170601-story.html
I'm an atheist, I belive all religions harm society equally, the old testament that MANY christians in the US still use as their primary holy book, is almost identical to the quran in many ways. People that single out the muslim religion like it is any more inherently dangerous than the christian religion are usually christians themselves and heavily deluded. Most people in prison for ALL crimes are christian, that includes rape, murder, or any other crime, and the no true scotsman bullshit is all they have to say about that, meanwhile lumping all Muslims into the same ideologies as the terrorists with the same breath. All abrahamic religions have a high tendency to shit out extremists, doesn't matter which one you pick.
I'm not a paranoid schizophrenic, so I'll be fine. The US is at more risk of the christians implementing their bullshit religious law into US law than anything to do with muslims.
Why do you only single out Christians like Muslims would accept gay people
"Actually christians protest against gays more than muslims" Yeah, but at least they don't cut their heads off like some other religions.
"a normal family consists of a mother, father and children*
Sir i think youve forgotten that *these children do not have parents*
And again i think they woudl rather hear "you dont have a mom/dad" than a "you dont have parents"
This was a good video. I can't wait to see the next one.
It's interesting to see the different yet similar ways that people I'm different countries treat LGBT issues.
"LGBT issues" its an issue :d
I'd really try to be more understanding..she gave such a honest answer....interesting video..
I feel sorry for people that say
"Kids get bullied for having gay parents"
"They're weird"
Blah bla blah...
And I'm like 'Are you sure the gays are the problem here, or is it societies restricted closed-up mind? Smh
@@daviddavid3259 go ahead and make me shut up.
I am Japanese and bisexual. I have some lgbt friends. My family don’t know my sexuality but they may notice it. When I came out someone, next day all of my class mate knew I am bisexual. Someone made fun of me because of lgbt.
But others, most of them accepted me and they keep our friendship. They didn’t make fun of me. They didn’t speak ill of me. So did my teacher. She said “ don’t think that you are strange. You are normal. You can enjoy your school life and have rights which everyone has. Don’t cry”.
Now a lot of Japanese people don’t discriminate against LGBTQ people. They willingly understand us. Some elderly people hate us. But Not All.
The world are becoming more and more tolerant one by one. If you are LGBTQ and you are fighting against lgbt discrimination, you should remind you are not alone.
Thank you for reading.
You are what’s ruining Japan.. We will win! Fear us.
I love how they’re all pretty understanding about it. definitely wasn’t as harsh as the korean one 😂
Same. As a Chinese I'm quite surprised ab how even the older generation understands LGBT well. Things are rather diversed in my country
@@hullumajas745 it really depends cuz china is a big country and cultures are super different in different parts of china. I came from Shanghai and ppl r very accepting.
Japanese history and culture has always been very accepting of LGBT+ folk, unfortunately due to western views and conversion of Christianity, it has led to a more limited viewpoint distaste of them. I’m glad that the younger generation is snuffing out these outdated ideals
Oh ... That crossdressing geisha thing?
I don't think they are more accepting. I think they understand and accept some LGBT behaviors, but in the end you have to conform to societal norm. Like, they can accept that a guy had an ambiguous relationship with another guy, but only for a time, and in the end he must marry a woman and become a father.
@@fajaradi1223 Geisha never where crossdresser. First geisha where men, but due to some problems, the only ones who can be Geisha are women. It's same for traditionnals theather. At first it was mostly women who were acting but then due to some problem, they were all replaced by men. They kind of change their places.
Also, crossdressing was always a thing in japan history, crossdressing is really common (wich is why you sometimes have part or series where a character is crossdressing and all). It's just clothes, they don't really care. Well these must be costume (crossplay, school event, harajuku, etc) or every day normal clothes.
Also, in Visual kei groups, looking androgyn is a must.
Japanese are also more pansexual, sure like any one they care about your appearence and gender (like any one) but after will love you for your personnality more than anything. It's can also explain why GL and BL (yuri and yaoi) characters are mostly open to any relation than really gay. Or that in average shoujo or slice of life stories the main characters have often crush into a character from the same sex without really feeling bad about it. It's a case that you can see in the manga Prunus girl (but the manga ended too speed cuz the author was sick).
@@narudayo5053
No that's not what I meant. I forgot the name, nor what it called. That trans geisha thing.
SAME with India!
The reaction is much more friendly than I expected.
Actually... A lot of important people in the Japanese history were lgbt... I think mostly foreigners were the ones who bought hate with them... But its getting better as time passes...
Anna Blink right, the younger generation is more open minded than the generation of homophobia.
The reaction of the boy with the white shirt when his friend says he's never talked to a gay person - priceless 2:25
"I've never talked to a gay person" yeah man okay lmao
Maya K .
I don't get your point lol
Saitama
The number of people you talk to being so high, it’s very unlikely you’ve never talked to a gay person in your life. That’s why the person found this part funny.
Maya K Maybe his thinking of a gay person is limited to that of a really flamboyant one, he seems like the kind of person that is not aware that gay comes in all colors, sizes, forms, as any other human...
I nvr talked to any shithole Gay n I m 100% sure about it
Please do a "How Do The *Korean* Feel About LGBT Community"!
Iamkaathy It would be a similar response I think. Elders probably don't approve of it, younger people might.
Yes, that would be very interesting!
Iamkaathy I think they will be very careful because they are in front of the camera. My personal opinion is that Korea is more resistant to LGBT than other Asian countries. But I think it's changing little by little recently.
I did not speak English so I used a translator. I am sorry if my English is strange... :-)
I was wondering (because I have recently become a fan of Kpop) why members in bands are 'shipped' if Korea is not very receptive to the LGBT community? Is that just a western influence or do the Koreans also participate in it? Is Kpop (especially the idol bands) stereotyped like women's soccer or rugby that are both stereotyped as being sports that attract lgbt players? Sorry for my lack of knowledge on the issue, hopefully I didn't come off as offensive as that is the last thing I want - I am just genuinely curious
most of koreans dont like gay people
Try to interview Filipinos, they would be "I don't like it because it's against the BIBLE."
They base their opinion accord to the bible which very upsetting.
These Japanese people are open minded. And I think it's normal they kinda disagree because it's not a norm in the society.
I would be willing to discuss to them what lgbtq feels and the rights that they need, because im sure they would listen.
Winter Duhlphin Lol. I'm Filipino too. Most Filipinos are kind-hearted but not understanding and open-minded. Yes, they have accepted us in the society but not our rights. Some would say they're okay with gays but not okay seeing them get married. Yeah
Forgive me, I respect their religious beliefs. What upsets me is that they are pushing us to follow it.
Not all Filipinos are christians and muslims. Some of us are atheists. We are 106M living in one nation and we all deserve to live in the way we believe we should.
@@jccpa2728 I don't agree with this. Most Filipino Catholics don't discriminate against gay people. If there were legislations for same sex marriage, I'd bet everyone would be supportive. Of course they can't outright say that they love gay marriage under the context of religion (specially if you're looking for a Catholic wedding), but the Philippines is probably one of the most tolerant cultures for gay people in Asia, maybe 2nd only to Thailand.
Sorry for the rant, I'm just tired of the filipino-self depreciating attitude, whereas there are countries who literally make being gay illegal.
Hurricane B hi!
JC was talking about how our country only knows how to tolerate the LGBT but not accept them (or us). In regards with your statement that religious Filipinos are supportive and we, the gays, are self- depreciating, are in fact wrong. We all saw how they reacted to the proposed same sex union bill and sogie bill. Citing different bible verses and calling gays sinners that they want to save. It's unfair that you, a straight (I assume) person, seem to simplify and invalidate our struggles here in our country just because you feel like other countries have it worse.
Im a Filipino and Im about in early teens here, I go to a catholic church for catechism and a lot of my friends is Bisexual. Some has girlfriends whilst going to church and a lot of us are very open about it but this doesn’t mean I’m generalising us. About.. I’d say 11 percent of us is in the LGTB since many of us kids are influenced by western people. Pretty much my religious parents doesn’t accept it but they don’t have to agree either.
Anyway what I’m trying to say is we don’t discriminate as much as we used to, some is ok with it but doesnt accept it, Some of us defend it “god loves everyone” “love is free” but this is just my opinion and from what I see so hope I made a point 🤔
That's what colonialism does. The Philippines were a European colony so they adopted Christianity, Japan wasn't.
Aaaaaaaw 😊 The part about finding out your son was gay... Even the older gentlemen that were slightly homophobic, still said they'd try their best to accept them and make them happy. That's what I expect from everyone. If the entire world would be more like them, there wouldn't be so much tragedy in the world. They made my eyes teary... so sweet!
Okay but to the man saying kids will be bullied for not having a mother or not having a father, what about single parents? Isn't that insulting them too? It's the same argument some people used here in Ireland when they didn't want gay marriage legalised and they just got laughed at.
Lia Foley I don't think it's the lack of a mother or father, I think it's having two of the same type of parent that will be weird, especially since as kids you sort of already find it weird when something is out of the normal boundaries. Besides if you're with a single parent, I don't believe you get made fun of since it's assumed you either have divorced parents, one of your parents couldn't make it, or one of them is out of the picture.
Not to offend anyone, but it's two entirely different scenarios. Please don't lump them together.
AngKear Oh yeah I see how different the situations are but I'm just saying the way the man said his argument it sounded like it isn't normal to not have a mother or not have a father when that isn't something just kids with same sex couple parents experience. I have split up parents myself and I know that's a completely different situation to having two parents of the same gender.
Yes, you can get bullied for not wearing the most expensive clothes or have a different skin color, or have a very deep/high voice too. I think it's just an excuse for people to be homophobic.
Lia Foley I think one parent families are also looked down upon in japan.
well, we all know our younger generation are much aware of this LGBT community and we keep supportive for them. feel good to hear one of old man says he doesn't have any problem if his son is gay:)
I love the topic♥♥♥ thanks asian boss:)

Why?
infires_613 you know it, I will never accept this fake issue. It was not even a question to wonder, now suddenly everyone wants to change sex ?
What's next step ? Change race ? Becoming a reptile, a mammal, a cat ? Wtfff
You have a good health, a job, a home, how in the earth, cant you be grateful and live your life normally ?
Its just liking the same sex, it cannot be helped.
Imagine being forced to love the same sex as you, how would that feel? You couldn't be able to if you are straight.
Its just like that for gay people.
why they acting like lesbians don’t exist lmao all they say is he him and his
I guess it's because the original question was about gay people as it was a way to start a conversation referring to the latest news about gay couple
Because when you hear gay the first thing you think is two men, because it is more common, especially in a conservative country like Japan
@@PlayCrysis I would say more controversial
No, it's because gendered pronouns don't exist in Japanese. The subtitles are to blame here, not the interview.
I won’t listen to a porn enthusiast
Some straight couples actually leave their children like what my ma and pa did to me=-= gender does not matter as long as the child is loved and cared with that's what matters the most.
My views on this subject have always been simple; I'm not them, so I don't get to choose whether or not it's right. I believe every person on this earth has a right to be happy, and there's not one person who has the right to take that from someone.
Sometimes I wonder if some Japanese people give their personal 100 % honest opinions on these interview-type things. Ever since I learned about honne and tatemae, it's just been hard to decipher haha. I value the opinions regardless of whether they're honne or tatemae, but sometimes I just wonder if I'm hearing people's true opinions.
Emmanuella Tosin Olorunsola what does that mean
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honne_and_tatemae
You mean what's "honne" and "tatemae" ? Honne is basically one's true feelings or opinions about something. Tatemae though...my understanding is that it's either a straight up facade or like a filtered version of your thoughts.
Japanese being very polite, they sometimes tend not to go against the public view
Ah, thanks for putting the link there. That's way more helpful!

@@Omar-ir4gk I was talking to another person. They probably deleted their comment.
@@Omar-ir4gk so? Ar yu gei?
I really like seeing asian people's opinions on different subjects and issues. Waiting for the second part!
I cannot understand the argument of, "the child would get bullied." The only reason this is true is because of the people who say it, if we could normalize it more, they wouldn't get bullied. We all just need to be more accepting and loving towards each other.
The bully is more at school because the bully have mother and father and the child that adopted by gay parents. So the bully cannot understand the situation and started to tease. You think a child understand this kind of situation.not all of them
So you change the whole society to adapt to something that is fundamentally corrupted? Thats where your wrong kiddo
@@Shadow77999 are you saying being gay is fundamentally corrupted? Genuinely you lost me man. I would rather change a system that is homophbic and cruel to people because of something as simple as loving another consenting adult than continue to let that cruely occur.
@@Shadow77999 when it comes to anti gay sentiments you have to be able to see the impact of that sentiment. lgbt 'fundamentally corrupted' ok loads of people can say that to LGBT people, young LGBT people and straight kids who might grow up to be gay, oh well now they believe they are fundimentally corrupted, what do you recon happens then? look we told you it was all fundimentally corrupted!!!! well done for creating a self forfilling prophecy and damaging a whole demographic in the process as well as the rebound that it would have on society in the process!
hate destroys, love builds and respect bridges.
you want to change things for the better fight with not against. 50% of the LGBT is against fetishism at pride especially around kids, because of the hate that 50% who wants to improve it within the LGBT cannot because they are 'repeating conservative right wing fascist hate'. the whole lot has become toxic and 'fundimentally corrupted' is just throwing a log on the fire that the LGBT didnt actually create, a fire that hundreds of years of discrimmination and hatred and lack of understanding created along with an era in which loads of seperate ideas were all trying to improve things because society was so toxic towards anyone who didnt fit in to what was dictated, which wasnt by choice
"I've never talked to a gay person.."
Me looking at Kei like.. 🤨
"I'm worried that their child might become a victim of this society" I know this is coming from a good place, but why does the majority in society get to decide what's normal? Trying to be normal has become such a social stigma that being different has become taboo. People from new generations have become more understanding, but you can still tell that simply becoming different makes you an automatic victim. That is a major stigma that should go away. Btw, what's your order?
@Random Songs In Locrian Spoken like a true Japanese. I personally disagree and I really dislike that form of thinking, but that's really how they think, and there's nothing I can do to change that. That's how Japanese society works. Different cultures.
that man in the orange talks about how a family should consist of a mother and a father... but yet forgets about all the single-parent households in Japan.. wow
Do you think that a child that's raised in a single parent household will generally have the same school achievement, social and emotional development and self esteem as a child in a two parent household?
@@skrtahaha5491 so funny you came and asked me haha. I was actually raised by a single father after my mother left us. And let me tell you, I have achieved much more than any of the kids who grew up with me. Not trying to be cocky or to show off, but I never felt different to these kids I actually saw myself better growing up because I had extreme support from my father that these kids never got from their parents. And if I am going to start to talk about my achievements, i’m going to start sounding ignorant and proud so let me just end it here👌🏻. The only thing that was hard for me is the bullying because I got bullied for not having my mother with me. Not the bullying you might think of, nothing extreme, but people or schoolmates used to call me names and stuff so the problem is not my parents being divorced, its the people not having an open mind. I would rather 100% to live in a single parent household than living with both parents while them having a very toxic relationship.
@@Mega3fra that’s why I said *generally* . Ofc having one loving parent is better than two Herero toxic ones, and I’m sure ur dad is incredibly loving and supportive. That’s why I truly support same sex couples adopting children from less fortunate backgrounds. Although, statistically and generally, u must know this isn’t the case with single parent households. Statistically, children in single parent households have much more negative prospects than ones in married couples. There were studies that showed that same sex parenting had almost identical results with single parenting; much lower graduation rate, lower self esteem, lower emotional development than hetero parents. They was a big disparity in percentage too. If you want I can try and find it.
The point is, even logically, I truly think there are psychological and developmental consequences to having an absent parent, whether it be a mother or a father, and the research shows it too. I don’t think voluntarily and intentionally depriving a child of a motherly or fatherly figure is healthy.
This is hard to hear. I’m not saying this is a joyous thing. I’m gay.
Anime = gay
Japan = gay is bad
Me👁👄👁
It's there because it's taboo.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Pingers Bingers Yeah Taiwan is the only country in Asia where this is general support for LGBT. In Japan and South Korea it is around 35% although in South Korea it might rise while in Japan it's probably going to stay the same.
there is a lot of incest and pedophilia in anime too, what's your point?
@Chanel Oberlin it's not hentai, incest is a special genre. Just like "gay stuff" is a genre too. You don't see gays in ordinary popular animes. Only in animes with specific gay topic.
"we'd go extinct"
me : " but the earth is so much populated right now"
Well japan already has a low declining birth rate
yeah thanks to certain races
That’s interesting to see a view from “ordinary” people on this subject.
Thanks for that
"It's hard to relate to gay people."
No one's telling you relate to us, we're just telling you to accept us as the human beings we are. I don't relate to straights in any way, shape or form but I know that they're not just gonna vanish off into thin air. They are people too. So why is it so hard for them to see us that way?
3:27 *netflix wants to know your location*
1:16 I would have said “well what about single parents?”
HI 5 I’ve literally never heard of someone getting bullied because they only have one parent. My cousin lost his dad at the age of 10, if anything family and people at school/friends gave him extra love and attention after it. And my boyfriend is Japanese, where this video is made, and he lives with just his mom and he’s never had a problem with people making fun of that...
@@Sugarglidergirl101 You never having seen it does NOT mean it doesn't ever happen.
(Mostly) Upsetting but not surprising. Thanks for doing these interviews, it's def interesting to get more opinions!
Upsetting?...
i actually really love this channel! just wanted to put that out there ~
in regards to the couple adopting, in Japan there are too many children who are growing up in orphanages.. it might be an Asian or specifically Japanese thing but, theres some stigma against "raising someone else's child" weather it be as a step-child, or an adopted/fostered child.. so the average couple in Japan won't consider looking at adoption.
so if the LGBT community can save these children from growing up without a family to call their own, no one in Japan should be against it.. especially if they want their population to keep growing. !
but as the old gentlemen said, i can imagine that at school and maybe even out in the the working world, they'll most likely become the target of bullying.. but that is not the adoptive parents fault, it's the parents of the bullies and the teachers who look the other way or even show blatant agreement/siding with the bully/or even being the bully.
the way they look and deal with bullying needs to catch up to how quick social issues are being talked about.
but progress is progress so i have no complaints ^_^
Unless this video was heavily edited to remove anti-gay opinions, I would say the Japanese are very open-minded about this issue. Just recently watched a similar video from Russia -- they largely came out as anti-gay in my opinion.
“When theres only one gender in the house dont you think thats weird?” no, single parents exist and raise their children fine.
So the younger folk are ok with it but the older generation not so much. Same as everywhere else then.
Personally I think the biggest question to ask would be is the child in a loving home with supportive parents? Straight couples can be junkies, alcoholics, abusers, and all sorts, but becasue the Mother/father thing is seen as "Normal" a lot of underlying issues can go unnoticed.
I'm a gay man and I've always loved Japanese culture. I enjoyed this video and listening to the honest answers and different views of the individuals being questioned.
Aww.. I love how they are more understanding than I expected.
they all gives a smart and reasonable answers, i really love japan ❤

To try to tackle the bullshit one can read in this comment section, here I go:
Actually there's no gay "gene", nor are people determined by their environment regarding their sexuality.
While a baby is still a foetus, there's a peak of testosterone that determines if the person will be attracted to the other sex (the most common option), or the same sex (which hapens roughly about 5% of times, IN EACH AND EVERY CIVILISATION, no matter the times). On boys, it's the absence of that hormone peak that makes the individual gay; on girls, it's the presence of the testoterone peak that makes them lesbians. So actually homosexuality is pretty natural.
And if you think I'm making this up (because those who don't want to hear scientific and tangible evidence are numerous), this is based on a long and tedious study, confirmed by many other scientists, made by Jacques Balthazart, a Belgian scientist. He replicated artificially the hormone peak (or its absence) on lab mice and found his observations to be true: he created gay mice.
So there IS scientific evidence to prove that homosexuality is not a disease, nor a malfunction, it's normal, and the environment in which you grow up has nothing to do with it (although it can lead to hiding one's homosexuality, but not erasing it). Some are GAY AT BIRTH, and that's it.
Hey do you have any links to sources?
Yes I do but I can only find it in french I'm sorry. I know that similar researches have / are being made in english, but I can't find the link right now.

stay opened minded everyone and positive everyone. as long as one is not doing any type of harm to one another, there's no reason to be ashamed, especially if both parties are adults.
Curious-would you say that about incest couples? For example, a mother with her adult daughter, or a father with his adult son. Personally I find that disgusting and totally immoral. But since there’s no harm (or chance for pregnancy), does that mean you’d support it? (And believe it or not, it’s actually more common than you think)
I love how calm and reflected all of their answers were, even the opinions I disagree with were stated in a non insulting way.
i love the way the girl in the green coat and her mother look at each other when the other speaks. You can tell they are proud to have such an open minded and kind mother/daughter.
1:27 What an amazing answer by that girl. She gave a positive answer to a question that seemed to expect a negative answer!
devastating is such a painful word to hear... especially from a parent. if my mum or dad said that to me after i worked up for months, even years to come out, i would be heartbroken...
devastated is the word to use if someone was hurt badly in an accident, or if someone you know is diagnosed with a bad disease. it should not be used for a human emotion you cannot control...
it makes me so sad :(
Despite some of the negative comments, I was really surprised at how open minded some of the responses were. In my country it isn't even talked about and if it is it is considered horrible. Its really sad.
"I'll do my best to make my child happy."
And who knows what happy is? Childish tosh.
The only thing I could think of was “Kei has an awesome hair” I’m so jealous
Damn, watching them answer these out of character questions for them but still answering and giving their full thoughts is great by itself but not only that, they give impressions of free thinking society which is a very cool thing to see
The last video that i watched was one talking about what russian thinks about gay people, and being a pan girl that was terrifying with the answers, so now i am really happy about the japanese answers
I love these women. They are so enlightened compared to the others
5:06 she's speaking facts. i tell you, straight up facts.
It’s super nice to see that the majority of the people you interviewed were accepting n supportive!! It’s nice to see my fellow LGBT members being supported in other countries!!
I didn't realise it was a cult. Wait... yes, I did.
"I'll do my best to make my child happy" such a lucky person if you have a daddy like him! Wasn't expecting that at all!
