What has that "turning japanese" song got to do with masturbation? I have heard so many times that The Vapors song "Turning Japanese" is all about masturbation, how so? Like i dont get it lol am i missing someting about the japanese orrrr? |
OMG another good thing has been perverted!!!!!
That song was originally written at a time when everything in this country was becoming Asian oriented (everything being made in Japan and exported here), hence "turning Japanese"!!!! Also, according to a band member, it is about a guy who just lost his girlfriend and is slowly going crazy!

What is the correlation between the lyrics "Turning Japanese" and masturbation? I heard them talk about it on VH1 yesterday, but I didn't understand it... |
the 'turning japanese' part is FUNNY- what's disturbing is the 'I want a doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well'.
EEEEW! |
Some dude was telling me that 80's song, "I think I'm turning Japanese" was about masturbation? I don't get it. What has turning Japanese have to do with beating off? |
| it's about a guy masturbating to this chick's pic and then when his face scrunches up so he looks Japanese |
'Turning Japanese' by The Vapours- is it really a song about masturbation? My partner- an adolescent in the 80's, believes this song was about masturbation. Is this true, or just another sad, wet dream? |
In a VH1 True Spin special the band denied this. Fenton explained: "Turning Japanese is all the clichés about angst and youth and turning into something you didn't expect to"
But he was probably lying... |
About Japanese culture (sex and masturbation)? i just want to ask about the the culture of the Japanese about sex and masturbation..
do they prohibit masturbation?or not?
do most Japanese father teaches their sons about sex and masturbation?
and anything about their culture when it comes to sex..
thanks ^^ |
| David is correct. The Japanese culture is actually much less "anal" (no pun intended) about sex than Americans. |
Is the song "I think I'm turning Japanese" about masturbation? I have always thought that it was, and most people think that when they are saying "I think I'm turning japanese," they are referring to the way people kind of squint and pull their upper lip back when they do it (therefore making them look like the stereotypical japanese person.) Plus, he talks about looking at some girl's picture and kissing it when he is alone...
But one of my friends recently said that that's not what the song is about. He is only missing the girl so he feels like a foreigner. That doesn't make alot of sense to me... So I just wanted to see if I was right or not. (If not I am going to feel like an idiot.)
Anyways, please don't feel offended by this question. I am not trying to be racist, in fact I don't even like the song myself. |
| Well, that song's quite the blast from the past and you've offered a most interesting interpretation. |
Is the song "turning japanese" really about masturbation? and why????????? how???? |
| look at the lyrics. it's all about a guy looking at a picture of his girlfriend and then "turning japanese" (think of guys getting slany-eyes while doing the self-service). Yes, it's been officially denied but come on, it's pretty obvious (sorry 'bout the pun). |
What pop, rock, or dance songs (old or new) have masturbation as their main theme? I'm compiling a list (don't ask why--it's long and complicated!) and I already have the song from "Hair" ("Masturbation Can Be Fun"), the '80s song by the Vapors ("Turning Japanese") and the '90s song by Divinyls ("I Touch Myself.") What else? |
orgasm addict-the buzzcocks
dancing with myself-billy idol |
