I'm Nina. I'm from the United States. I did not know that Japanese women are like this. Some things are shocking and I've never heard of them before. But yes, indeed, there are people like that in the United States. About a year ago, it was a big fad for celebrity women to become very thin and anorexic. It is a big problem and isn't healthy for your body. Of course there are people who buy the expensive things when they really shouldn't for their own life. That's not only women, it's males as well. I haven't heard of women being dominant in the relationships as much as the others, but without a doubt, I'm sure it happens here all the time.
