They are just saying that every year the number of Japanese women who hook up and eventually marry non-Japanese men and non-Asian men is growing and this new trend is here to stay!!! So as a result many Japanese and other Asian men are angry and jealous of all these Oriental women marrying western men, so there trying to come up with ways to prevent it and force these women to hook up and marry only within their own race or nationality, but thats not going to work out. Asian female and Caucasian male is the hottest and fastest growing trend in the world of interracial/inter-cultural dating and marriage, and Jeff is an example since his wife is Japanese and he is Caucasian–this trend is here to stay.

Good I am glad that you are happily married to a Japanese man…mixed marriages are great!!! and much more interesting than same race marriages because you learn about cultures at the same time that you learn and enjoy your special someone. I have lots of male and female Japanese friends and whenever they are around westerns they are as polite as possible BUT when there not around westerns the men are very bossy to the women and if the women dose not listen to orders then things will get ugly. However more and more Japanese men are ignoring Japanese women because they are more aggressive than in the past.
BOTTOM LINE: Japanese men do not want Japanese women working in the professional world and they refuse to accept this changing gender role in their society.
It is said that more than 60 percent of Japanese men today are gay/homosexuals and it largely ties to the increased aggressiveness of Japanese women wanting respect and equality from the men, which are two things the Japanese men refuse to give to the Japanese women because it means giving up power to the women. OMG it the end of the world as we know it to the male dominance over females in Japan.
I hope you and your spouse stay together forever and live a very happy life!!!!!

I think some commenters here are missing something. In the article it says the bra is 'NOT FOR SALE'! It's a novelty item only. It's not supposed to change japanese society or control who japanese girls marry or any of that. Jeez. And to the racists here who talk about competition with white guys, saying that Asian men are too controlling or whatever… shows how little you actually know about Asian society, just listening to stereotypes like that. I'm a caucasian female happily married to a Japanese man, living in Japan with his family, and there are many more like me. Trust me, there are just as many Japanese guys who are unhappy with Japanese girls and look elsewhere, and just as many caucasian girls who are unhappy with white guys and look elsewhere.

I would not say it racist BUT it is sexists beyond word!!!! this company is likely run by jelous men or ageing japanese people who can not imagine the changing world for Japanese women.
Jeff is 110% correct!!! My wife is japanese and I am caucasian, she tells me all the time that the ageing people in Japan and the japanese men are trying everything possible to keep the japanese ladies from hooking up and getting married to western men, its so funny that these men think they can stand up to us american men…YEA RIGHT dream on japanese and all asian men you dont stand a chance against we american men so just face the fact that japanese and asian women will continue to date and marry us american men and theres nothing you can to do stop them. Maybe if you asian men would adapt to the changing role of women then they might not ignore you so much BUT I highly doubt any asian man would dare give up any power to an asian women oh god forbid that ever happening that would be the end of the world for the asian male population.
Oh yea and I love my wife so much she is the best thing to ever happen to me!!!! Thanks Japan
