Japanese people are the ultimate middle man of the entire human race. Let me just clarify that I myself am Japanese and this won’t get racial. It is just my opinion based on years of investigating and being around Japanese friends.
The first part that I will be writing about is Japanese people being the “ultimate middle man”. They tend to put themselves in the middle ranking of almost everything. Don’t get me wrong, some people have high mentality, but I’m talking about the majority.
For example, Japanese people think that they are the most superior race in the entire Eastern-Asia region. Some of us tends to look down on Chinese, Korean people as we rule them, on the other hand look up to the European, American race as we think they are far more superior.
Another example is that some of us battle between grades and educational background. They look down on most people, mostly their friends. Then they put famous people higher than themselves just because they have a higher ranking status in life. I think all this is caused by the incompetently put together Japanese education system.
The second point I wanted to make is that the Japanese tries to ensure that everyone around them are all on the same level.
The largest example to prove this theory is when students decide to study. We commonly ask people how much others have studied for the test. Also we ask how well others have done on the test. Most of the time, the answers are “below average”. Once one answers this, the other most definitely will say “same”. This is the culture here in Japan. People aren’t optimists, but more likely pessimists. People have begun to notice this trend and started to alter their minds but ever so often, the pessimistic mindset tend to appear.
