Japanese Mail Order Brides

If the general news media was right about the modern mail order bride industry there would not be any Japanese mail order brides, because Japan is a modern, industrialized nation with a high standard of living, and a very good general quality of life.

And it is true that Japan is not an epicenter for international dating like Russia, Ukraine, Colombia, or the Philippines, but there are still a good number of Japanese mail order brides on the major international dating sites.

To some extent the small number of Japanese mail order brides is perhaps because of Japan's tradition as a closed society, but it is probably also because of the nation's post-World War II economic prosperity. So, there are cultural and economic reasons why relatively few Japanese brides seek foreign husbands.

However, to some extent these traditions seem to be changing. First, many Japanese brides like the more open traditions of the West. Often they have traveled or gone to school in the United States or Europe and they like the higher status of women in the West.

In fact, Japanese girls that go the Untied States for college often have a very difficult time readjusting to life in Japan. They often find the US’s open society enjoyable and relaxing and many decide to sign up on international dating sites after growing tired of trying to adjust to a country they no longer feel completely in tune with.

After spending four years at Stanford, the University of Michigan, or another top flight American university it is just not easy for many Japanese co-eds to return to a world where they are expected to hold a good high paying job during the day and revert to the role of a traditional Japanese wife at night.
