めちゃくちゃデカイ外人が近づいてきて、殺されるんか思ったら「スシローまで案内して」って言われたから案内したったら最後に「シェイシェイ」って言われた、殺したろか

A few of the things she says aren't necessarily wrong. Frequently public bathrooms in Japan lack soap--meaning most people, if they do wash their hands after going to the restroom are just rinsing them. Blowing your nose in public is considered rude, meaning that people would rather sniffle for hours on the train rather than blowing their nose once. Also, coughing without covering your mouth historically hasn't been seen as rude or gross. By Western standards, Japanese actually have a lower bar for hygiene when it comes to coughing and sneezing than many people in the West. Although my wife is a bit of a germaphobe and literally brings wet-wipes to the grocery store to wipe down the cart before using it. She doesn't like handling money, as its 'dirty,' and frequently complains about the state of the public bathrooms. She will often change our daughter's diapers in our car or in her stroller rather than using the changing table in a public restroom. With a population of a 100 million, you're going to run into a lot of people with different hygiene standards here the longer you're in Japan. Also, I was in Japan during COVID, and the mask protocol was pretty bad--some people wearing the same mask every day for months (even with blotches of lipstick and snot stuck to it). Worst B.O. experiences in Japan are a toss up between homeless, clearly mentally ill Japanese men, and some S Asian migrant laborers.

🇯🇵 A black lady living in Japan claims that Japanese people don't wash their hands, smell bad on the train and only care about "neatness" but not hygiene. As expected, everything she is saying is a lie.
