That Useless Flap of Skin (ほうけい)

He Says:
houkei (ほうけい)=foreskin
If you are a boy, do you have foreskin?
Today's dirty word is foreskin.
I know many American boys cut off their foreskin, but Japanese do not.
Japanese don't have such custom.
So when we japanese go to a hot spring(=onsen.so many jp love to go hot springs), then we men can see, "oh he has a foreskin,oh that guy too!".
I believe 80~90% jp have foreskin.

By the way,I show you all my favorite funny video about foreskin.
As I told you last time,the video is from soramimi hour.
The original song,English singer sings in English.
But for Japanese,they can hear it as so funny japanese word accidentaly.
In the video,the original lyric goes "fucking~,fucking~,fucking hostile~!!"
But in Japanese they can hear as if "houkei~,houkei~,houkei no hito~~!!".
It means "foreskin~,foreskin~,this guy is foreskin~!".
I hope you can hear it in Japanese,not English word.


She Says:
I don't really notice whether guys have foreskin or not.

Arguing with Henry Longfellow (オナニー)

He Says:
onani (オナニー)=masturbation

They say the origin of onani(e) is that Onan from the Bible had a sex with his brother's wife,then he spit his sperm into the ground from Heaven.
So actually Onani isn't a real japanese,but they use this word instead of masturbation.
You know,many japanese people are shy,they tend to think they shouldn't say the talking about onani or sex even between friends.
So I bet they would react with much surprise than American would do.

Here is the link of my favorite Japanese show.
It's called soramimi hour.The show features English songs that Japanese can hear them as japanese word by mistake.So the English songs has meanings as they are,
but japanese could hear as so meaningless,funny,stupid japanese words.
In the link,the song goes,"You give me all I need~".
But in Japanese,they could hear as "yu ki mi onani~".
Yu ki mi is snow-scene viewing.
Onani is masturbation you know.
So japanese can hear as if the singer is singing "masturbation in snow-scene viewing~".

She Says:
Cool. Masturbating.
I'm not so sure that He's telling the truth about not talking about sex and masturbation between friends. I mean, in another show, they're waking this guy up and have a whole camera crew there and everything. Then they notice that there are all these tissues wadded up by the side of the bed. So they start teasing him about what it is and he full on admits it.
I think in some ways Japanese people might be more open about sex than Americans.
Anyway, here's the video. As it's about mistakenly interpreting the words to a song as being about masturbation, it's not work-safe or child friendly.



The next word is...ほうけい。
