I'll arrive in Japan Sep 20th, which turns out to be Respect for the Aged Day, closely followed by the Autumn Equinox on Sep 23rd. Both are listed as National Holidays.

I'll admit that I do find some Asian women to be very beautiful, but what do you think the attraction is really based on? Why do some white guys only date Asian women...can somebody explain to me why some guys have this preference? I gotta say, it’s amazing to me how many men I’m friends with who are dating Asian girls.

I wish some would swap their $2000 hand bags for a bit of dental work. I will spend some time on yaebasuperstar, looks like a bit of fun.

Sure, they may not bother fixing their teeth, but the amount of other cosmetic surgery the population undergoes is still humongous. The Japanese are just as caught up as Westerners are in creating the "master race" (aesthetically speaking, of course). Wait…did you actually just say that Japanese women are as “nature created”?

At least the japanese women are as nature created.

If they have the teeth as they were meant to be or if they decide to give themselves a Western 'upgrade', doesn't matter to me. Just don't cut my tongue if we kiss. Asian women are just sexy.

We have a good, almost affordable, dental industry in Australia but I frequently hear students from the US and Canada talk about how horrified they are by how bad many Australian teenagers teeth are.... lord help them if they ever visited places like Japan, Vietnam, much of China and India. Compare what seems to be the US's overwhelming obsession with perfect teeth with the old Japanese practice of Ohaguro (staining your teeth black) and similar practices across most of south east asia, and the still practised, habit of hiding your mouth when you laugh (and more recently when on your cell phone . its a cultural thing really, some cultures place a lot of importance in “perfectly white” & “perfectly straight” teeth, other cultures don’t.

Plus near impossible. To move a tooth up the gum what cause it to rip and tear, and lose teeth. If that was the case, it would be horribly painful. Plus near impossible.

Cute Yaeba - http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hdMWb_HMuzo/SgfyAO4Yx1I/AAAAAAAADdM/zS3kYE-w0oM/s1600/nagasakirina.jpg Ugly Yaeba - http://gaijintonic.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/yaeba018.jpg As you can see, they both have "Yaeba", but I find the second one less attractive. I think sometimes, it comes down to what i'm going to call a "Perfect Yaeba". This consists of perfect teeth placement for a cute look, along with an adorable face and other things. I am from america and I have horrible teeth. I think that because I find an imperfection from myself, that by seeing something like this glorified in other cultures (plus they have better teeth than me), I think of it as a variating beauty.
