Is Japan Really Safe For Foreign Women?
译文简介
网友:我觉得日本人不愿意帮助别人。有一次我在火车站上感到头很晕,当时我就一个人,然后我就一直蹲在自动售货机前,没有一个人过来检查的状况。我听到人们在谈论我,他们在猜我可能遇到了什么问题,但没有人过来帮我。

I don't think Japanese people want to help others. I have felt faint on the train station; I’ve crouched in front of a vending machine after feeling ill when I’ve been alone and no one came to check on me. I’ve even heard people talking about me and speculating what might be wrong with me, but no help.
我觉得日本人不愿意帮助别人。有一次我在火车站上感到头很晕,当时我就一个人,然后我就一直蹲在自动售货机前,没有一个人过来检查的状况。我听到人们在谈论我,他们在猜我可能遇到了什么问题,但没有人过来帮我。
There are many safe and attractive countries besides Japan.
除了日本以外,还有很多安全又有吸引力的国家
If your health is in such a poor state then you shouldn't be traveling alone
如果你健康状况不好的话,那么就不应该独自出门旅行
That's crazy. Where I live in Ireland people will always help you if you look like you're having trouble with something or if you look sick.
这真的太疯狂了。在爱尔兰我生活的地方,如果你看起来遇到了麻烦或者看起来生病了,那么人们一定会为你提供帮助
You can always ask a police man and there's plenty around in the big cities.
你可以向警察寻求帮助,在大城市里面有很多的警察。
Here in India, once I was going to just faint then I was just going take support near a wall , then 2-3 people did helped me .They got me water and food too.
在印度,有一次我快要晕倒了,我只能靠墙支撑,然后有2-3个人帮助了我,他们还给了我水和食物。
collectivist cultures are usually more prone to social influences such as the bystander effect and general conformity. I dont think its not that they would not like to help its that they do but before they take action they look at what other people are doing first.
集体主义文化往往更加容易受到社会影响,例如旁观者效应和从众心理。我不认为他们不愿意帮助别人,他们愿意帮助别人,但在他们采取行动之前,他们会先看别人在做什么
It also depends which part of Japan you are in.
There are millions of Japanese that would help anyone in trouble in Japan no matter if foreign or native.
这也取决于你在日本的哪个地方。数以百万计的日本人愿意帮助在日本遇到困难的人,不管他是外国人还是本地人。
@The Struggler Thats because Irish people are one of the nicest and kindest people on the planet. (Saying as non-Irish). Ireland, Iceland, New Zealand are the nicest countries.
那是因为爱尔兰人是世界人最善良的人之一。我这样说并不是因为我是爱尔兰人。爱尔兰,冰岛,新西兰是最好的国家。

I agree. I had a time when I was assaulted on the train with many people around and no one did anything to help. Just watched or pretended it wasn’t happening.
我同意你的看法。有一次我在火车上遇到了袭击,周围有很多人,但没有一个人做任何事情来帮助我。他们只是看着,假装什么都没有发生一样。
@Thinking Again so I’m guessing you wouldn’t help her either
所以我猜你也不会帮助她
Same in U.S. There are both good and bad everywhere.
在美国也一样,到处都要好人和坏人。
@Thinking Again so if someone's health is poor they do not belong in public lol
所以如果一个人的健康状况很差,那么他们就不能出现在公共场合了,哈哈
If you ask for help you will often recieve it. Coming from the North East US Japan was actually great because Japan is even more hospitable than the state I used to be in.
如果你寻求帮助的话,那么一般人们会帮助你的。我来自美国东北部,我觉得日本真的很棒,因为日本甚至比我过去所在的州更加的热情好客。
I saw a foreigner woman fainted on a train in Kanagawa Prefecture. Nobody helped her because people are afraid of COVID-19. But, once the train stopped at a station, a male Japanese passenger notified the station staffs and then the staffs helped her and took her to hospital.
There's no need to fear that nobody's going to help you.
在神奈川县的火车上,我看到一个外国女人晕倒了,没有人帮助她,因为人们害怕会感染新冠病毒。但等火车到站后,一位日本男乘客通知了车站的工作人员,之后工作人员过来帮助了她,并送她去了医院。
所以没有必要害怕没有人帮你。

Im about to reach my 2 year mark of living in Japan, and honestly although I don't interact much with strangers, whenever I've been in a situation where it looked like I might need help people have offered it.
我在日本生活快两年了,说实话,虽然我不怎么和陌生人打交道,但每当我需要帮助的时候,人们总是会来帮助我
As a woman who's lived in Japan for 5 years, I will say it's relatively safe to walk around alone, even at night (depending on the area). However, as with pretty much all countries, it is generally less safe to live here as a woman than as a man. I have been followed a few times and have had to loop around so as not to give away where I was living. If I'm walking alone in areas like Shinjuku or Shibuya, there is a good chance I'll be stopped by guys doing nanpa. When I first came here, I was very naive and didn't understand completely that that was what they were doing, because sometimes they were saying, like "Teach me English, please" or "Where are you from?". But make no mistake, people in Tokyo don't just stop and talk to you for no purpose. Don't assume you're safe just because it's Japan and be vigilant like you would in any other country.
作为一个在日本生活了五年的女性,我认为即便在晚上(取决于地区)单独走动也是相对比较安全的。但几乎和所有国家一样,作为女人在这里生活是不如男性安全的。我曾经被人跟踪过几次,为了不泄露我的住址,不得不绕远路。如果我独自一人在新宿或涉谷行走的话,那么很有可能会被男人拦住搭讪(nanpa指的是日本的搭讪文化)。当我第一次来到这里的时候,我还非常天真,完全不明白他们在做什么,因为他们有时候会说:请教我英语吧或者你从哪里来啊。但千万不要搞错了,东京人不会无缘无故拦下你和你聊天的。不要认为这是在日本你就安全了,你要像在其他国家一样保持警惕。
So, it’s not safe.
Also there is plenty of videos of girls getting harassed in Japan.
所以日本并不安全
在日本有很多女孩子被骚扰的视频
There is no perfect safe country. Though, Japan one of the safest if you'll compare it generally to other countries.
没有完全安全的国家。但和其他国家比,日本可以说是最安全的国家之一
Japan is one of the few western countries where it's actually safer to be a man than woman , at least the overall crimerate is low but there is a big issue with women getting harrassed .
日本是为数不多的男性比女性安全的西方国家之一,至少总体犯罪率较低,但女性被骚扰的问题很严重。
@NelyyIsOppy Japan is not a Western country. You should learn more about geography.
日本不是西方国家。你应该多学学地理。
In other words it is super safe.
换句话说就是日本超级安全
@Anime Queen Japan is safest country on earth currently.
日本是现在世界上最安全的国家
It depends on how one defines safety. As with most societies, women are more likely to be subjected to sexual violence but men are more likely to be subjected to more violence overall.
这取决于你如何定义安全。与大多数社会一样,女性更有可能遭受性暴力,但总体而言,男性更有可能遭受到更多的暴力。
Shinjuku is literally one of the worst places in Japan. Alot of strange shady guys there
新宿真的是日本最遭到的地方之一。那里有很多奇怪的可疑分子。
I've heard that Japan is completely safe, but for me that was always hard to believe. If people exist, crime exist, and you could be a victim if you're not lucky enough
我听说日本是一个完全安全的国家,但我觉得这很难让人相信。只要有人在,就会有犯罪,如果你运气不好,那么就会成为受害者。

@???May??? Nowhere is safe. The question is is it relatively safe compared with other countries.
没有哪个地方是安全的。问题在于和其他国家相比,它是否相对安全
Japan is relatively far safer for foreign women compared to other countries. Because majority of jpn males are shy and cannot speak english fluently. Also, foreign( non-mongoloid )women are far masculine and older looking than average japanese women. I am half japanese half korean woman and when i was in australia and new zealand for a year, i got followed by THOUSANDS of local/foreign(non mongoloid) men (who are completely strangers to me ). I realised that so many non mongoloid men have heavy fetish for Northeast asian ( majority of japanese/korean/ northern chinese ) females. Compared to these countries/america/europe/middle east/india, japan is far safe country for living as foreign women.
相比其他国家,日本对于外国女性相对安全的多。因为大部分日本男性都很害羞,而且不会说流利的英语。此外,(非蒙古人种)外国女人比普通日本女性更加的阳刚,而且看起来更老。我是韩日混血儿,我在澳大利亚和新西兰生活过一年的时间,在此期间我被当地/其他国家(非蒙古人种)的男性跟踪了无数次,这些人我完全不认识。我意识到很多(非蒙古人种)的男性非常痴迷于东北亚的女人(大部分日本人,韩国人,和中国北方人)。和美国,欧洲,中东和印度等国家相比,日本对于外国女性来说是一个安全的多的国家。
Well, Shinjuku... can you expect any good from it?
在新宿, 你能指望会遇到什么好事?
My sister has lived there for 20 years, it's same in every country every place, if your a young pretty female, you will get harassed like anywhere else
我妹妹在日本生活了20年,每个国家每个地方都是一样的,如果你是一个年轻漂亮的美女,那么不管在什么地方,你都会受到骚扰
This reminds me of the time I was walking to the train station from the Kyoto open markets; I was waiting for a friend to show up when I was approached by an older man, whom I thought was my friend's friend. He greeted me in Japanese and I in turn responded back, asking where our friend was.
"Oh! You speak Japanese? Let's be International partners!"
Followed by increasingly personal questions. Where are you from? Where are you staying? Would your boyfriend get mad if you're talking to another man?
I stopped and stared at the man, stunned at the last question and realizing this was not my friend's friend.
"Why do you care whether or not I have a boyfriend?" The man, caught off guard by my response, put up his hands and waved in an apologetic manner and began to walk away awkwardly.
这让我想起了我从京都露天市场走到火车站的经历。当时我在等一个朋友,这个时候一个年纪比较大的人走了过来,我还以为他是我朋友的朋友。他用日语问候我,然后我用日语回问他,我朋友在哪里。
他听了之后说:原来你会说日语,那么让我们成为国际伙伴吧。
接下来他问的问题越来越私人,如你是从哪里来的?你住在哪里?如果你和其他男人说话,你男朋友会生气吗?
我停下来盯着那个人看,我被最后那个问题惊住了,到了这时我才意识到这个人不是我朋友的朋友
我问他: 你为什么要关心我有没有男朋友?那个人被我问得措手不及,举起手,道歉地挥了一下,然后就尴尬的走开了
I have lived in Japan for 5 years now. I’ve always felt safer here than anywhere that I’ve lived in the US. There are still issues here in Japan like stalking women. A Japanese man was videotaping up my daughter on an escalator in Yokohama and many people saw it and did nothing. We noticed when we turned around and he was sitting on the escalator with his camera. People around us were pointing or laughing but did nothing. Japanese Men have followed my daughter and I all around Tokyo. It’s definitely scary.
我在日本已经生活了五年。我一直觉得日本比我在美国生活的任何地方都要安全。但日本依然存在着问题,比如跟踪女性。我女儿曾在横滨的自动扶梯上被一个日本男人偷拍过,很多人都看到了,但他们什么都没做。我们注意到当我们转过身来的时候,那个男人拿着摄像机坐在自动扶梯上。我们周围的人在那指指点点,哈哈大笑,但却什么事情都不做。我女儿和我在东京的各个地方都被日本男人跟踪过。真的非常可怕。
So why do you feel safer in Japan? What's the worse happen to you in US
所以为什么你觉得在日本更加安全呢?你在美国遇到过什么更加糟糕的事情吗?
I am planning of moving to Japan to teach English and watching your videos has been super helpful! thank you for uploading!
我正计划搬到日本教英语,你的视频对我有很大的帮助。感谢你上传的视频
