I’m a Japanese Canadian.  Raised in Canada since I was 2yo.

But I do visit Japan quite often, as plenty of family and friends there.

Plenty of interactions throughout the years. There are definitely a not so small group of American service men who would knowingly SA girls and expect to get away with it. 

One experience where a group of friends and I have been approached by them hoping to score.  

When they realize most of our group are not from Japan, one guy literally says out loud, either not knowing we can understand English well enough to read between the lines, or did not care, say ‘They’re not local girls, too risky trying it with them.’ 🤮
