MC(Japanese cultural):

Many Japanese women are not very well treated by their husbands. If the abuse is known to others, nothing is said. The abuse is bot reported and acted as if it does not happen. The Japanese wife is meant to take care of the normal house-hold duties, clean and tend to what ever her husband desires. Japanese women are expected to be polite, clean and do what her husband asks of her. Japanese women are expexted to appear better than men, physically and mentally.
