Hey, that's MINE!

I just call children the two legged ones. I bet your daughter is beautiful. Well the Japanese and Indian really made my daughter beautiful. My mother in-law when she was young was to die for so so very beautiful. My husband is very handsome as long as he has his beard hard to see or tell the Japanese but without hello.

That is neat that you lived in Japan I would love to see it but I am not to crazy about flying. Until you can drive there I am not going. My father-in-law was Army how he of course meet and married mom. My husband brother Frank was born in Japan. My husband was born in Texas and was in Arkansas.

@AJs:
I lived in Japan for 1 1/2 yrs as a teenager. My stepdad was a Marine. We were on the island of Okinawa. Japanese women are very beautiful. I love their fine features. I'll wager your daughter has no shortage of fawning beaux.
I spent a year on Okinawa as a Marine when I was 19 (73-74).

We lived off-base just outside the back gate of Futenma. I went to high school at Kubasaki and was on the Zukeran swim team. (Maybe some day I'll teach Rita Jean)
I was there 82-84. My step dad was pretty hard-core. He was 28 yrs in then, MasterSgt. I didn't get away with much. -

I kept getting kicked out of the club that was next to the cafeteria on Foster. That's where the video game was that I liked, but I was too young to be in there. Naturally, I went in anyway.
Remember BC Street? Went a few places there I wasn't supposed to be, too.:D

I drank a few thousand beers in that nco club.:D
We had a huge riot on Foster on the Marine Corp Birthday on that base. That was fun especially for me being on guard duty at the time. :eek: -
Honshu is one of the three "Mainland" islands…I forget which one. Okinawa is a few hundred miles south and for the longest time was a territory of Japan rather than actually part of it. Kind of like Guam or American Samoa is for us. One thing you never, ever do...call an Okinawan a Japanese. They get really irate!
There were two local girls my age I palled around with: Ayumi, who was Okinawan and Yukiyo, who was Japanese.
Beer....RAH! My mom broke me of that forever when we were over there.

At first, yes. But it's like anything else, you get to know what to look for. There are different Japanese also: Ainu, from the far North are lighter skinned, taller and thinner; Japanese are smaller, slender with longer limbs and finer features; Okinawans are shorter, built more sturdy and slightly coarser features. Kind of like American Indians. I know these are generalities and there are always variations within a group.
