Let me start this off by saying I respect your work immensely, especially the Stanford Prison Experiment.

You have done a brave move, coming to the internet talking negatively about video games and porn.

You address three very complicated subjects (education, relationships, employment) that you believe are effected by two factors (porn, video games). First, can you show that there has been some sort of "Demise" for males when it comes to these things? As far as I am aware men still dominate the SATs and most arenas of education, and in areas where women do better like college graduation, men don't appear to have gotten any worse, they just aren't doing as well as women. For relationships/employment, there are a billion factors that need to be taken into account with our generation like the fall of marriage, the recession/outsourcing/automation, the rise of the internet in general, etc.

For example, perhaps it's not that people who watch a lot of porn have a problem with socializing, it's that people who watch lots of porn overwhelmingly tend to spend too much time on the internet in general, which correlates with bad social lives. Or perhaps people who watch a lot of porn do so because they know they have little chance with the ladies.

Finally, can you explain why there isn't a similar trend happening to women these last two decades? Women by all studies are the largest/fastest growing demographic for video games and porn.

Thank you, and much respect. I would love to get some more information.

In Japanese the verb comes last, so that's why. Korean basically has the same grammar as Japanese so that's why it sounds like Yoda.

I don't think we have a specific term in mainland Japan.

Huh. So is 外人ハンター a term invented by the expat community?

Foreign woman + Japanese man

Is this usually Filippina and other Asian foreigners and that's why it goes against our expectations?
