How conservative the Japanese people really is? And the government?

Moreover, buff guys are often avoided for their narcissism.

“None of my business” is the common attitude.

They don’t have the so-called “couple culture” seen in many Western countries.

Do you think there will ever be a movie that features a line such as “You graduated at the top of your class in liberal arts, we need your help”?

Visual-kei

They don’t tease or beat up cross-dressed people on the road.

We don’t instantly tie it with sex when a father and his very young daughter are taking a bath together.

Why are girls supposed to have a stereotypical "hourglass" body shape, and why if you dont have an "hourglass" body shape you get treated differently? It doesnt make any sense to me.

They don’t bring around their mates everywhere, which means they don’t worry about being single, gay, or whatever because no one cares about whom others are having/ not having sex with.

In the old era, gay relationships were very common and were even praised among the privileged social classes, such as Samurai and monks.

How do you see these below?

How should I go about convincing my mother that my foreign online boyfriend isn't out to get my holes or scam me?

This is a very vague question. But considering the asker’s comment on Mr. Nakajima’s answer, your interest seems to be in sex-related matters (I don’t think it’s the only indicator of conservative/ progressive, though).

They were very similar to the bromance of today but accompanied by sexual intercourse.

It’s very common for a girl/ woman to ask a boy/ man to be her boyfriend.

If people in the UK hate Trump so much, why does he own golf courses there?

I sometimes feel people from the West are obsessed with those “gender” and “sex” things too much. Let’s think about something else sometimes. It’s unhealthy.

Yaoi

I’ve heard it’s always the male side that is expected to take a move in some countries. It’s not the case in Japan.

How do you view men and women who cheat?

They don’t have the value that “guys must be macho.”
