Does everyone envy the bigger chest?

Do foreign girls have to hide their curves too? - That's a different issue.

Hey guys and girls it's Cathy Cat, this time we're gonna go hit the streets of Tokyo and ask

Japanese people to react and give us their opinion to differences in

body types between girls in Japan and girls abroad. Let's go Ask Japanese.

Do you think the body type of foreigners and Japanese is different?

Hmmm yeah. - I think there even is an extreme split.

Foreign girls are either SUPER skinny or chubby compared to Japanese standards.

It's either or the other with foreigners. - Their makeup too

it's very different to Japan. - How so? - Foreign makeup is stronger

Super strong compared to Japan.

The skeletal framework is different. They shoulders are wider...

Also they have big curvy bodies. - Do you envy those curves?

A little bit. - A tiny bit. - If I had to choose...

I don't want curves. - Me neither.

If you live in Japan you don't need curves. - IF you live in Japan

you don't want curves? - In Japan we are all skinny

and we don't see curvy people. Abroad that's different.

Abroad that's desirable. - In Japan...

You stand out negatively. It's not our beauty ideal

We have to have small bottoms.

Having a chest but no butt is ideal for us.

I think. - How much of a chest is ideal then?

It shouldn't draw attention when you're out in town.

People shouldn't notice it.

Instead of "Wow Jealous!" people think "Wow she stands out too much!"

"She stands out too much" - That sounds negative!

People get a bit appalled by that.

Abroad we envy large chests but not here?

Rather than seeing them on myself, they look good on foreigners.

I think that. - A big chest doesn't suit us Japanese

Japanese people try not to stand out too much.

It's ok for us to be plain.

What's the Japanese beauty ideal? - Being SUPER skinny

Is that yours too - I want to be skinny. - Wait

You are skinny! - Haha - No???

No I am not. - So you don't think you're skinny?

I don't think so. - And you? - Me neither.

Westerners are big. - They are.

I imagine foreigners to be a bit chubby

But some are skinny. - Is chubby ok for you? - No

I don't like chubby girls. I think there are beautiful Westerners though.

I saw different foreigners here. They're different from Japanese.

They have their own style. - Check out these curves.

And those curves. Find that here in Japan?

Nope not at all. Also no big boobs in Japan.

Would they suit a Japanese person? - Nope

Japanese are skinny, even though some aren't

But generally we all love skinny shapes - Can I ask something?

Abroad, the bigger the chest the better but...

how is that in Japan? - Well in my case.

I don't like the chest too big.

Abroad big butts are ok. But that's really not ok in Japan.

Abroad it's ok but it won't become a trend in Japan? - Definitely no.

Being too skinny isn't good but too chubby isn't either.

I like medium.

Comparing body shapes here and abroad

what's different. - The booty! - What?

Some train their booty to have curves

abroad. But Japanese are straight.

The way the bottom is shaped and the curves of their body are different abroad. abroad. But Japanese are straight.

The way the bottom is shaped and the curves of their body are different abroad.

I need to be flat to wear the clothes I want to wear

So I don't want any curves. - Can I ask it straight

What's better, big chest or small chest in Japan? - From a girl's point

I think bigger is better. - What do you think? - Uh

Recently boys prefer smaller chests to. Both is alright I guess.

But in normal stores they won't sell larger sized tops?

You have to go to specialized stores tailoring for busty girls

or you won't be able to find the right tops.

Foreigners have long legs, and arms and look chic.

They show their legs and wear sexy clothes

That suit them. I envy

that a lot. - This foreigner here talking, isn't like that.

I am the same size as you are girl. - Your eyes are bigger and you

have a different face. We Japanese have to make up for that with makeup

I think you look cute. - Do we have a different body shape?

Curvy. - Yeah. - Foreign girl's styles

are different. I envy that. - Do you mean skinny wise

or curvy wise? - Foreigners are skinny and

have curves in the right places. We Japanese don't have that

I envy that. - Their chests...

are so much bigger. I envy that a lot. - You do?

Really? - We get western clothes here in Japan right?

They are made for foreign sizes, like the length of their legs

and they don't always fit Japanese people.

But there are people that like clothes like that.

They exist.

No matter if they fit them, wear what you want to wear.

You said you envy a larger chest. Do you all envy that?

I think the ideal women have a shape like that. To me.

Foreigners look fancy in simple clothes

that's why many Japanese envy the Western body shape

a lot. - Japanese might envy that but

also... people might look at it.

If you have a too curvy shape, it will draw negative attention

to your body. So... it stands out

but it's pretty

Some might think that.

What's the difference in body types

between Japan and abroad. - Showing cleavage. Japanese girls

are too shy to show that. They cover themselves

and do it well. Foreigners are confident

True, Japanese girls don't show curves. - Foreigners are confident

in their bodies and do it. I am surprised by that.

Do you want Japanese girls to show their curves more too?

I think it's the Japanese girls way to be humble

That's why they are subtle and hide their bodies

And that's why it's good for Japanese. That's why they are subtle and hide their bodies

And that's why it's good for Japanese.

Foreigners are confident in their bodies? Is that because they are curvier?

Well maybe it is. - Their legs are longer...

Their chests are bigger. They have things Japanese girls don't have

I think. They are are cool, I like it.

What is your ideal then. The Japanese way of hiding curves

or the foreign way of showing. - Depends

on the situation and the season. - In summer it's ok?

Well why not. For me. - And you?

I prefer my girls to be plainer. - The "ideal"

in Japan. - Yeah. - Hiding it? - Don't emphasize it.

Be subtle. It's better. - Foreigners show their curves more often

Do you prefer it if Western girls hid their bodies more too then?

Ah that's a different issue. That's the way they are.

There is a Japanese way and a Western way

Japanese should be Japanese. Foreign girls should be

the way they are. - They can be confident? - Yeah

Being yourself is right. - There seems to be a thing that curvy girls

are ok abroad but not so much in Japan because the average Japanese person

is quite skinny, but that is NOT natural. They're trying their best to be that skinny

Also having too much of a chest or butt might be a bit of a problem because

you might not be able to find clothes that fit. Yes Mr Fish we can't find clothes that

fit! Also, people might give you weird looks

if you are too curvy. I know abroad in certain western countries it's ok to wear something

with cleavage and similar to show off the generous curves that you have been blessed with

however in Japan it's a culture where you generally HIDE these areas so

even if you are well endowed you can't show it off. You have to wear clothing that

covers it in most situations, which might be hard because you might not find

the right clothing that fits. Just be prepared and if you're well endowed (chest wise)

congratulations but also make sure that you bring appropriate clothing that covers the area.

If you have a cleavage people will stare, give you weird looks and

you might draw some negative attention to you. So just be careful about that. What's your idea

and opinion on the differences in the comments. Always be nice to each other

and I hope I catch you soon for more stuff on Ask Japanese. Bye.
