Guest beachlover Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 You're right beachlover, so I did a bit of googling to try to find the answer - the best article I found is this one from The Japan Times: http://search.japantimes.co.jp/cgi-bin/nn20080115i1.html Thanks! That explains it. Looks like it was a chain of events. Japanese mixed with Brazilian... Must be a hot combination. Quote
Guest beachlover Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Distance really isn't a factor. Many Filipinos have gone to the US, OZ and UK to work for a better opportunity. Even westerners travel to far off places for employment with higher income. True... But in the absence of 'convenient distance', there had to be an explanation so many Japanese chose to go to Brazil in particular... it wasn't a normal distribution. Quote
Guest GaySacGuy Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 True...

I am guessing...but I would think that they are looking for bigger buff type guys, not another Asian??? Just a thought. Kind of like guys travelling here from US for smaller bodied Asian guys! Quote
Guest beachlover Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 Well, I was referring to whether the locals (Brazilian boys) would find you attractive if you are a visiting Asian. I don't think the original Japanese immigrants went there because they found Brazilian boys hot! Quote
