I was in Namba station with a Japanese female when a 50 something year-old woman started yelling at us.
Namba, as in on the Kintetsu line, as in 窶愿ッ窶挌? That's not too far from here.
By the way, what was she yelling? And did she just start yelling seemingly out of nowhere? I'm trying to get a picture of the scene in my head.
But mostly I've felt racsism from men around that age. As for the younger generation they are very curious about everything. But the funny thing about Japan is that a person's thoughts and feelings will be totally different than when they were young and in college. A college student can be very tolerant one year and then when they are 35 or so have a totally different feeling about something as they are heavily affected by the environment they live in.
I think it probably has more to do with the generation a person belongs to. Are you saying that you've known people who when in college were very tolerant, and then when they got older they became much less tolerant? Also, are we just talking about racial tolerance?
