Bathing with Japanese host family

to get clean?


naked is best, when you want to get clean and relax in hot water.

you dont go to a bath house to get clean, you shower before hand and then go in the water to relax. in hungary its the same thing except you just dont have to worry about perverts, pedophiles, homosexuals staring at your genitals and fantisizing.

Love to know where that comment came from ☝
 
i like this ideal very much, part of me thinks ooo naked japanese women O_O but i think that it is more important to relaxe and i very much like the ideal of these bathing houses.
and who cares if someone looks at your private and has fantasy's i dont??its just some loser having stupid thoughts
 
i'd go so far as to say who cares if it's a loser that you think is gross.. if someone has erotic fantasies about me, whoever it may be.. i'm flattered... you don't have thoughts like that about anyone.. you choose the best ones since you CAN... if it's just a fantasy you get to choose whoever you want, right?

so if some dude has fantasies about me it must mean he thinks i'm the hottest guy in there.. i may not be gay, but i can spot a chance to get some good self-confidence when i see it ;)

as long as he doesn't act on it, i'm good :-)
 
I'm yet to see a mixed onsen where women actually get naked... I need to go to more I think.

But otherwise I've never had a problem getting my kit off, whether with strangers, family or friends. What do you have to lose anyway?
 
hahahaha exactly my thoughts!
-sends high five-

I Went Often When I Was There!

I used to have a ball listening to the coments. I never spoke Japanese to let on I could overhear & understand.
I'm white as a ghost and "VERY" hairy. The most often heard comment was about the gaijen gorilla/monkey. I would pat my hair down, lick my arms a little like a cat grooming. Grunt like an ape and walk like one; put on a real show. My japanese buddies would be rolling around laughing while those not in on the joke wondered what?
Anyway, just go and enjoy, never worry what others think!

WHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA Frank.....you got me rolling all over the place too man !!!! 👍 :D :D :p ...*makes note, I'm a hairy(legs) guy kinda too...as to show my equipment...maybe they'll start making gestures and say things like "whoa Godzilla!!* j/k 😊 well...I would have my jaw dropped to the floor if some pretty Japanese chicks went there as well *nose starts to bleed* :D *
and I would just get my small butt in the pool ASAP !!😊
 
BWAHAHA, thats a good onsen story 👍

Apart from doing laps of the bath and pouring FREEZING cold water on my friend going to an onsen/sento has always been a nice relaxing experience (after going fishing/drinking, sento after a long day of training).
 
I got a question.

Is it bubbley like a hot tub or is it calm like a bath tub beacuse if it bubbley like a hot tub hell ill do a cannonball in arse naked! I dont know though franks story has incouraged me I might just do a cannonball in the arse naked anyway!!!!! Maybe play some marco polo idk!!!! :D :D :D
 
hahahaha....today is the BE FUNNY day heheheeh :D Yeah doing a cannonball in ya naked arse would impress the chicks.....NOT !!!! :p They'd maybe be like "woooooow he has some big equipment!!*and they all want to date you :D *shakes awake....sighs* ☝

ok, i've seen that in a few places now.. what is the marco polo thing about?.. it's very american...

as far as i can figure, when you're in a pool you go "Marco" and someone replies "Polo".. right?.. so why???
 
I've seen it on the Simpsons when Bart and Lisa do it but I don't know what it means either!

I think I would be nervous about the bathing even though I shouldn't be I just would. I'm pretty shy so I'd be a bit apprehensive, but I'd be fine :p .

Oh, and I agree that being eyed up by anyone is a complement. Everyone likes a bit of an ego-boost every now and then! :D

T.Mac i regret to inform you that after this post i will no longer have that orange belt that you passed on to me. :( But marco polo is where somone closes there eyes in a pool and says marco and then other people that have their eyes open say polo as they scrambel around the pool to try to keep away from the guy with his eyes closed it is kind of like a blind game of hide and go seek that you play in a pool and if you open your eyes you have to start over and if someone gets out of the pool so you cant get them you say "fish out of water!!!!" and the person that was out is now the guy that has to be it but if you are like me you say polo and then slowly go under the water so you dont make any noise and then push off the side of the pool (remaining underwater the entire time) and end up on the other side the person that is it will be totoaly confused!!!! LOL oh no i am giving away all my seacreats!! Next i will tell you how to do the perfect cannonball that will even get the lifeguards wet!!!LOL First you have to be about 300lbs LOL!!!
 
marco polo is fun with women..you kinda peek and go and grab there boobs and go "eh i found you!" hahaha and then you get slapped
 
hahahahaha *SLAP*....maybe they like it but they just have to do it because it is "RIGHT" ? :D 😊

LMAO yea no doubt ...*thinks back to those days* ahh happy times.

:D :D :D
 
I seriously doubt that you were headed to a mixed onsen. as stated above, these are rare, and people will were bathing suits. It sounds like you backed out before you saw there were two doors.

There is the option of "family only" in some hotels. Still, I don't think your family was going to make you do that. With older kids, I doubt they do that when you are not there.

While we are on the onsen thing, Japanese people do not wash before entering the onsen. First they get in the onsen and soak, get out and clean, then get back in. This is oposite from most of the books and discussions i have had. I have been to many onsens, and I guess i was so busy making sure that I washed first that I didn't notice that other people didn't.

I say most people beacuse it seems that younger adults do wash first, but my father-in-law gets right in along just like the other older men.

I wash first, and I don't think I will ever change that.
