Re: NTR
(Anonymous) 2013-03-12 12:18 am (UTC)(link)I've noticed a lot of Sports Manga, and more general cultural ideas in Japan reflect a belief of the inherent physical superiority of European and Black men. That they're just naturally bigger, faster, and stronger, which can only be overcome by the brilliant Japanese training or mind.
It's part of that isolationist arrogance coming up against insecurities about being emasculated compared to the wider world.
Re: NTR
(Anonymous) 2013-03-12 12:25 am (UTC)(link)Frantz Fanon talks about this in Black Skin White Mask and I think his explanation for it has a lot of merit - that a lot of people have this idea that there's something weak about being civilized, that they believe there's some kind of opposition between intelligence and physical force, and so because they tend to see Africans (and in Japan Africans and Westerners) as less civilized and intelligent and refined, they must have a corresponding increase in strength and vitality, some kind of connection to primal nature. And then that gets hooked into a whole sexual thing pretty easily and there you go. It is about insecurity but not specifically about isolationism, I don't think.
