[QUOTE="ncurd, post: 958149, member: 72205"] I mean there a genuine issue of the age old trope of 'whitey coming over to save the foreign savages' the book Shogun comes under a similar criticism which is based on historical fact, its not a view I share about the book but the trope is real. On the other hand the Japanese have exported and created their culture (expecially historic) into a massive commodity. As a woman you can go Kyoto, get dressed up as a Geisha and have the makeup applied and go for a photo shoot around the historic quarters. Yet other people would tell you its wrong a cultural appropriation. All I'm saying is I can understand why some object, personally I think its upon the people of Japan not people like me. [/QUOTE]
