I won't reopen the thread as I've seen that Josh actually started a new one on the subject (if he wants to post because he needs attention, he will, and we can't do much, can we ?).
I just wanted to make clear that we I said
I believe that he represents the majority of people of his age rather than being an exceptionツ…ツ", I was referring to the libertine attitude rather than the disrespectful comments you cited. Anyhow, those of you who've read the "Marquis de Sade" know exactly how libertine people like to be extremely provocative and treat human beings with complete disregard, like Josh.
I don't know if it's because Twisted and me come from the same part of the world, but I don't feel
so offended by Josh because I understand what kind of person he is, and that suffices to relativise it all.
I comprehend very well (****, as it's started, Josh is going to need the bloody thesaurus again

) that our Japanese (female) guests may be offended, but it's justly a excellent opportunity for them to come to realise that there
are people like that, and thus be cautious when they meet some young Californian skateboarder that is trying to look cool.
No need to play the ostrich ; anyway, there are loads of forums where virtually all the people talk about J-girls like Josh. Just check these out :
Young Dudes Guide to Japan (at least the author has the merit of being humorous, but have a look at the forum down there)
****** Gaijin (at least some threads have similar tones, for instance
that one")
