I love hearing this discussion. My boyfriend of 3 years is an international student from Tokyo, and it has made us very sad to think that our options for us to go live together at his home are very limited due to me being a non-Japanese speaking American and not being able to get…
The thing that I learned about civil rights that I’ve learned in my 42 years as a black person is that... you need all of them. You need full access to all of the rights of a citizen when you are a citizen.
Married couples that return to Japan, should legally sue, for marriage recognition from Japan’s government.👍😉🇺🇸
Meng come throoooough with the research👏👏👏
Let's go to Mexico and get married! <3
My husband and I got married in the U.S. in 2010, but our home was Pennsylvania, where it was not recognized. We then moved to Canada and felt what it was like to have your rights recognized by the Federal government. It feels good.
Thx for the videos, I love Japan, it’s beautiful. Oh, & btw, Meng, you are so damn cute.....
Marriage gives each partner legal protections, legal rights, and guarantees that most people would think of as normal. And to look after your partner, you probably want to get married just to get the rights that come with it.
I think the Netherlands was first with Canada being 2nd.
Super interesting as always. On one hand the statistics give hope, on the other.. it's Japan. Not exactly known for modernizing. Do you know which benefits you get from marriage in Japan, apart from the hospital thing? Anything regarding taxes and kids?
Great conversation, that’s really important for Japan and it’s gay citizens.
That moment when you can’t even remember the term for people attracted to different gender. Nice.
I love all the anime clips you guys throw into your videos!
I wanna marriage with a prince since my 15 years old lol
These videos really are amazing. Even if it is sad i wouldn't have the same protections in Japan. My heart is still set on fulfilling my goals and moving there. I am sure that one day Japan will catch up to other places in the world.
Two days ago, Japan’s Supreme Court said it’s unconstitutional not to recognize gay marriage... (Gotta love the double negative to make Love Win)
Hi all, you guys know Taiwan has legalized same sex marriage since 25 of May 2019, right? International marriage also has been issued in 2020 of May. You don’t have to look too far for gay equality in Asia now. Best wishes.
My boyfriend and I are getting married in Japan but we're getting our license you and the US before we head over so pretty much for just having the ceremony. We would not want to change Japanese culture it's what makes it Japanese
Would love to hear you guys speak about your work-life experience in Japan. Overworked? What is your typical daily, weekly and monthly schedule like? What about your friends that have different types of jobs? That would be super and informative.
What I found interesting after watching this video, that Japan is trying to protect "straight rights" as long as possible. And maybe this is not a bad thing, because we kinda have many other countries where we can do it legally and move abroad to live there forever. And maybe tha…
It was like a very educational video. Gay marriage. By the way here is the situation me and my boyfriend talking about. Here it is. It goes like we're married and we're not married. It just depends upon what kind of world you're living in. I'm living in the live of world and my b…
For $1000 you can get me a pair of Balenciaga trainers & I'll just pretend we have that stupid piece of paper.
Even as a Japanese I love watching your videos! Just one technical feedback- there’s something funny happening in the audio. The background music comes from my right earphone and the voiceover from the left only!
Your channel is rivetingly interesting! Thank you for the video!
Heyy Andrew , i need some advice and tips ? If i want kids & my bf doesn't want one what do i do about it thank you very much for the help means alot to me cheers god bless you stay safe take care .
its sad for a foreigner who wants to get together with a japanese guy and cant be together by marriage in japan,,,it turns to be very difficult to stay after a while without legal rights ,,,, meanwhile in other countries that is not a issue for their gay citizens,,,
Smartness is important in a relationship and cyberhackinggenius helped cloned my husband’s phone and I got access to all his dealings both on phone and social media without touching his phone. Which really provide enough evidence for me to file for divorce. All I did was share …
I’m surprised nobody has covered the fact that you can have your gay marriage recognized in Japan if the couple are both from a foreign country and married there. (Where gay marriage is recognized, like for example Mexico where I’m from) That can give you a dependent visa!
Maybe talk about Japanese gay men's thoughts about Taiwan as the first Asian country to legalize same sex marriage?
0:12 yes totally accurate actual footage of gay pride according to my experience 😝🌈
Wow, I had no idea
Have you heard of "My Brother's Husband"? I imagine that would have been a different story if marriages were recognized.
Great vid, not sure about those stats though
I would like for you to talk about this again...has there been new developments, since Taiwan is the first Asian country to legalize same sex marriage?
Married couples returning to Japan, should sue the state for legal recognition of their relationship plus having access to equal access to legal rights & protections the state offers. 👍😉🇺🇸
You know since you guys are talking about same sex marriage in Japan I need to know something I support same-sex marriage and I support people if they're lesbian or gay but what concerns me is that a same-sex marriage allowed in Japan can Japanese gay men have a family is that al…
At least there is a paper. Here in my country, there is absolutely nothing.
