As I expected, nobody watched the video.

Didn’t watch yet

But the “thick” they claim here would get ridiculed over there… sometimes publicly

There was a women's plus size clothing store near my hotel when I went to Tokyo. The women I seen coming and going were average American size.

It’s a lot of extra virgin olive oil, breh.

Women Sumo wrestlers are an afront to traditional Sumo upholders, since the entire sport was devoid of women outside of the kitchen and the barracks they stay at for matron duties; Cooking and cleaning. If you got Netflix, check out Sanctuary. Not because it sheds light on females in Sumo, because it's pretty cool.
But yeah, a fat man who wasn't wealthy was seen as greedy/lazy/untrustworthy because he couldn't respect himself enough to not over eat or some shyt I heard once. So he'd be lower down the line in terms of getting a job since he was already seen as flawed. Japanese society as interesting as it is to us foreigners is depressingly myopic for those not able to secure meaningful jobs and attract women, so you've a whole society of veritable losers jerking off and playing videogames all day while their women chase anyone else if they can't get white dudes. shyt's even worse in Korea.​

Already ahead of you, good show.

And interesting take… I will not disagree. Especially if you’ve lived there before.

And especially with the Obese and poor. And I’ve seen fat Japanese guys (outside of Japan and on shows) but super obese I only seen with Sumo.

Crazy how they eat all them carbs and stay slim

They consume way less snacks/processed goods and sugar than we do.


They also move a lot because home to work/play is quite a ways (not everyone owns a whip).


Just my observation from having been there last septiembre, guays.


Yeah, didnt see a single obesely morbid specimen. And if i did: they were murrikans.

Weight is simple. Calories in, calories out (CICO).

Carbs, fat, protein, whatever the macro is, if you burn more calories than you eat, you’ll lose weight unless you have some special health condition. It’s science

Adequate portion control is a beast when it comes to not getting g flabby. I’m a big hamburger fan and the size of a kids burger today is what an adult burger used to be a few decades ago.

And they all smoke

That might be part of it.

Smoking suppresses your appetite. It's why people who quit often gain weight.

Plus speeds up heart rate and that speeds up metabolism
