Japanese Girl’s Love Beaver
Japan, known for holding the record on the World’s Largest Orgy, is one of the most sexually aware countries around. So it was of little surprise when we learned that the newest hip shop, that all the girls love in Shibuya, Tokyo, was named “Beaver”

Thats right… Japanese girls love Beaver. So the next time your in Shibuya, check out Japan’s Beaver and don’t be surprised by the customary greeting of “Irashaimase” as it only means “Welcome to our Beaver!”

Doesn’t everyone love beavers? They are so cute, with those big tails and teeth…. and those amazing dams that they build……

Perhaps they do mean “beaver”,as in the animal,and not the slang, that some depraved morons are thinking!

“irasshaimase” is what the staff say, “irasshaimasen” is negative.

For a take on the subject of Japanese girls and the dual meanings of “beaver” and (corresponding humor and embarassment), see the new post at site about my Japanese wife: http://www.norikostale.wordpress.com Jim

yeah, this is the correct meaning of beavers. Japanese can also be cute, and are always building stuff. But I wonder about the comment "most aware" as some J-beavers, perhaps many, are unclipped and contributing to the reforestation project, au natural!
PH balance can also be an issue with some, questioning the awareness mentioned.
