What connotation does the term "gaijin" have for you ?

[ricecake]

The main difference again seems to be this inside/outside concept, in which most Japanese don't allow foreigners to truly penetrate into their group. Hence, why I state again, sometimes I think most of Japan has more of a 'small villiage' mentality (don't trust outsiders).

Both Chinese and Koreans have known about this deeply-rooted Japanese cultural trait ( it's their strength ) for thousand years,finally revealed to Westerners ( BIG surprise ) !


P/S : This is my last post in this thread,I've had enough fun.
