Japan stuns the world and changes law...

There's an old saying that women are like Christmas Cake. Great, but only until the 25th [birthday].

Seems like a normal man's ideal. Here's something for America.

At what age should a woman have kids? is a different question than at what age isn't a woman desirable anymore?, isn't it? I take the phase GP mentioned as a reference to the latter.

And in that regard, there are plenty of female US celebrities in their late 30s through mid-40s who still get media attention for their perceived hotness. The marketing for the last few Jennifer Aniston movies has been "She might get her tits out this time!"

Desirable for marriage/children. A word that's paired with the Christmas/25 thing is urenokori, which refers to passing "marriageable age". Pre-26 is just an ideal and not a very unusual one.

Uhh. You need to signpost things better. Your only reference within the post is to GP :/

You just weren't following the thread. The entire post was a response to "citation, citation, citation", GP hasn't been involved in the topic fork at all since HenAi insisted on having the same old discussion.

I question your sense in making that claim immediately after trap15 points out your whole rationale for the specific point being discussed is based on a misconception (i.e. you didn't read what he wrote).

As it stood, seemingly within its own context, I thought it was worth pointing something out - no harm done. Certainly less harm than just flinging things into the wild and hoping they rebut somebody.
