Hello, I will talk about mean to be polite
in my culture today.
Speaking in general, Japanese people are gracious. Of course,
Japanese have a courteous manner that respects accepted social usage, but
Japanese have not courtesy towards women, because many Japanese women don’t
like artificial politesse. People who do like it, he was thought that has an
ulterior motive. I don't like it. Some of peoples are not.
Therefore, Japanese
women make a mistake that they think he has good feeling toward them. American
people have a condition of a man like a gentle. For example, keep the door and women
can go first, these are called ladies first.
I think this is because of the
difference between Japanese politeness and American politeness.
Japanese courteous
regard for people's feelings to be modest and polite. I was exposed to various
ways of thinking and became aware that there were different cultures and
customs in the world. That cannot be said as a rule.
I thought that I agreed almost your opinion.
ReplyDeleteSometimes, I felt little complicated for Jpanese customs .
The culture of "Lady First" is common in the US, but not in Japan. The way of expressing politeness is vary from country to country. It's interesting.
