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

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

Visual-kei

“None of my business” is the common attitude.

My dog is 2 weeks old. He's not eating, moving and always sleeping and I can't take him to a vet. What should I do?

How do you see these below?

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.

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).

How do police officers feel about the fear they instill into criminals?

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.

Moreover, buff guys are often avoided for their narcissism.

Can men and women be friends?

Yaoi

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

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

Trump is shot, tackled by SS agents, yet then stands, defiant, with fist high, and 52 hours later, walks into the Republican Convention to thunderous applause. Is there anything that can stop this man, who loves his country? Does he get your vote?

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.

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.

How can you tell if someone or someone's is trying to recruit or at least test you for a secret organization?

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