I was stunned when an attractive Japanese woman in her early 20s, told me she 'really likes' me… That's about as extreme a display of affection as is expressed. Blatantly gay Westerners at a bath house there can be very disturbing. It's a culture with naked same sex bathing. Homosexuality is not accepted, or is only whispered about as an aboration. Sex is not discussed & publicly available porn is highly censored. Married couples I know there sleep in separate beds. In Japan, like some other Asian countries, couples holding hands or kissing is rarely seen. 'sexual scenes' is very different to sex scenes! It's not porn! Hence the PG12.
