why do japs sit on the floor instead of on chairs like normal civilized people
>>222929019because the table is heated underneathso if anything, they are living in the future and we are the barbarians
>>222929019Low ceilings mebbe
>>222929019Because the floor in japan is clean unlike ypipo countries
>>222929019unbroken line of cultural continuity>>222929965bodied those piggus
>>222929065They have these heated tables because they can't afford central heating>>222929965My floor is dirty because I don't clean it. Checkmate
>>222929065Dunno, just having a warm house works pretty well for me
>>222929019low morals nihonjin
>>222929019>normal civilized peopleThe uncivilized people are asking the superior race.
>>222930581Go commit die you japanese
>>222930093You are zainichi korean
>>222929019probably because it is cute
>>222929019The floors of Japanese rooms are raised above the ground. So they are not simply floors in the Western sense.
>>222931318This is to adapt to Japan's climate and natural conditions—specifically by addressing humidity and rainwater, preventing pests, and ensuring natural ventilation.
>>222931318That type of building foundation is pretty common across the world.
>>222931318>>222931379Yes, just like most of the rest of the world. Now answer why the choice of using no furniture
>>222931584Japanese house foundations are forded one birrion times you stupid zainichi china swede.
>>222931628What I know is they could move the walls, the sliding doors and the tatami mats around to accommodate different sizes and types of groups. Also they were short lumber by the time shoin architecture developed
Western's floor is #1.In Japan, one must remove one's shoes before stepping up from #1.
>>222931628Houses in each country are optimized for that country's weather.Japanese weather is different with your one.
>>222933559I thought japanese people lived in capsules
>>222929965Samurai have no discipline to keep floor clean, BAKA GAIJIN LARPER
>>222929019It's a 4,000+yr tradition which must be preserved
>>222933611Japan has 4 seasons, unlike the rest of the world.
>>222929019I think it looks comfy
>>222933674That is where they spawn from
>>222933611Thanks for the non answer bug person, go seppuku
>>222929019I think they enjoy sore backs. RETARDS. People think east Asians are intelligent but they're just mindless idiots. They're determined and ruthless, that's all
>>222931628What even is your reference. Do tranimes think that anime is real life? Normal families with houses have normal furniture like everywhere else (yes even houses with tatami mats). The only ones who have very few furniture are those living alone, working 1100yen/h jobs, in 1DK apartments.
>>222929019The Japanese fall over more than other people so it's safer for them to be closer to the ground
>>222929965>Because the floor in japan is clean unlike ypipo countriesIf only, Japan is full of half-demented old people who don't give a fuck anymore.
>>222929019Because they are still 19th century peasantry that hasn't learned the civility of a white european, christian civilization.
>>222937216>modern west>civilityHuh?
>>222937172So this is the average Turkish Palace in Instabul. Japan is as civilized as Turkey.
>>222937172conceptualize the scent
>>222933559>>222933611so why no furniture?
>>222933559>>222936822gibberish
>>222935854>I think they enjoy sore backs. RETARDS.It's actually much better for your back and knees to sit on the floor. Your body wasn't designed to sit in a chair and there have been a ton of studies showing that people who sit on the floor have much less knee and back problems as they age.You have a shitton of muscles in your back and when you sit in a chair they atrophy. When you sit like >>222929019 then you have to use your back muscles to hold yourself up and it keeps them strong. If sitting on the floor hurts your back it means you're a weak bitch who needs to get his shit together before you end up a bent over old man.
>>222937706yeah, something similar happens with squat toiletsmain problem with japanese backs is lack of calcium (milk) in their diet combined with years of (literal) back-breaking labor
>>222929019The folks on /int/ are getting dumber and dumber.The people on /pol/ are actually better at having a conversation than the ones here.
>>222931584>>222931628idiot, the japanese a have a special term for floor, called "flooru", which means floor in japanese, low moral gaijin like you would never get it
>>222929065Sounds like a great way to get testicular cancer desu
>>222929965Japanese people are obsessive about tidyness but completely ignore hygiene and have no aversion to the ground or floor. They also don't wash their hands after shitting for example (only symbolic handwashing; wetting the fingertips of one hand for less than 2 seconds. I'm the only foreigner at my office floor of two offices with 300 people and I'm literally the only person who wash my hands.)

>>222937961I've never understood how this can work. I'd love to see an x-ray of one of those people
>>222938592Please tell me you're joking. I've eaten Japanese food. How would you know this? That is absolutely disgusting
>>222940897It's very common to have a toilet in its own separate micro-room with no proper wash-basin, only a cold water faucet (that feeds into the cistern) and no soap.I like to think that the food handlers have better hygiene than the general population, Japan doesn't have a particularly high rate of foodborne illnesses (except for crap like chicken sashimi).
>>222937706Yeah average western fatass couldn't handle sitting and sleeping on the floor like Japanese
>>222941581Most people use beds in Japan nowadays.
>>222929019>be Japanese>sit on the floor>complain about it when gaijins do itWhy are they like this?
>>222941806bakagaijin are supposed to practice the honoraburu yankee suquatto for 10 years before they're allowed to sit on the floor
>>222941987Westerners knees would explode doing that
>>222933559>>222931318its still just a floor, where are your chairs?
>>222942108only if you don't consider Russians to be westerners (fair enough, I guess)
>>222942191here, have two of them
>>222941537Mate I'm not concerned about getting ill, I know I can survive after eating fecal matter. Doesn't mean welcome it. This isn't an ideal set up but just a simple bar of soap in there will do wonders
>>222940472sorry brobut I've used your toilets and I've used theirsthey win
>>222942347>I know I can survive after eating fecal matterhow do you know this
>>222944271I put my tongue up a woman's bum and tasted her poo. I don't know how I didn't expect to taste feces. I was very inexperienced. This was years ago. I also got a BJ and penetrative sex from her, all for the Humble free of £20. (My god I miss the Craigslist days) I kick myself every day for deleting her number
Oh, and I forgot to add, I'm SURVIVING
If anything that poo poke gave me some ongoing strength
>>222941806In Japan, foreigners are viewed as inferior, so...a foreigner sitting down,a foreigner reclining their seat,a Black person walkingthese things are considered rude.NOOOOO foreigners are sitting
>>222929019How do you even sit like this for longer than 15 minutes without hurting yourself? It's so uncomfortable.
>>222944982https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySXvJ4_vKlQJapan is sick, healing it is too late.You need figure out something new.
