@whatthepato: I’ve noticed there are more and more interracial couples nowadays, and as someone who is also presently in one, I wasnted to share some “culture shocks” or things that are different about our difficult cultural backgrounds. Personally I find it beautiful that people who have two very different upbringings can love their differences and live together in an even more multicultural household. Maybe I can make a whole video just on this, there’s been so many changing that has come with living with someone from a different cultural upbringing but here’s just one I noticed. Before moving in with my Japanese partner I almost never ate rice at home. I’d eat bread, pasta, or sometimes potatoes as a source of carbs, with rice being a “sometimes” thing. Now not only do I eat rice multiple times a week, but there are things in my fridge that I never had in the house growing up in a very American household! If you are or know anyone in a interracial relationship or friendship and have a fun story or experience you can share, please do - they’re so interesting!! 😂🙏🤩 #interracial #interracialcouple #japanese #japan #tokyo #american #america #americaninjapan #cultureshock

I thought my American husband doesn’t smell at all until he runs out of deodorant from the US. Japanese deodorant doesn’t work. I always order American brand deodorant from Amazon. 😆

Deodorant covers up the smell but it won't remove the causes. Dissolve baking soda in hot water and wipe pits daily to rid off the surface microbe colonies within dermal layers

I love that you understand his culture. I lived in Japan for years and I didn't have a cultural shock because I'm Iraqi and there are a lot of similarities. Its my westerner friends who struggled.

It’s not that East Asian people don’t have apocrine glands, it’s that those glands don’t create bad-smelling sweat (around 90% of Japanese have this genetic trait). The same gene also controls earwax

In Okinawa Japanese women wear leggings in public as though they were pants. Probably American military influence.

My ex is Indian and she was super surprised that in America, the birthday person doesn’t pay for their stuff. In India, the birthday person pays for everything. On their own birthday

After living here for 8 years I disagree on the “great hygiene”. They do have tons of “beauty” products to hide bad hygiene tho 🤷🏻♀️

„It’s our responsibility to take care of how we smell bc it affects the people around us.“ I wish that was a thing in Germany as well. I’m SO sensitive to smell and sometimes it feels like torture ;_;
