I'll decide whether to broach the topic next time. The condoms are definitely impeding the pleasure of the experience. This being the second week of the sexual relationship, we might have reached the culmination point. It was distracting to the point where I was having trouble maintaining an erection. Thanks for the food for thought. I wish I had gotten a vasectomy when I was back in the states most recently.
Some other widely unknown things that Japanese women do and goes on in Japan.
1) Mail order birth control pills from Taiwan, Thailand, or Singapore.
There are a lot of old dinosaur Japanese doctors that give Japanese women a hard time if they ask for birth control pills. Consequently, a lot of Japanese women get them by mail.
2) Oral (cum in the mouth) and anal sex is a lot more popular among Japanese women than many foreign guys know.
If she not on the pill AND likes the guy, she will let OR want him to "finish" in other ways.
A much higher percentage of Japanese women can do anal sex than Western women. I didn't know this when I first came to Japan. However when I decided to purposely "convert" Japanese girlfriends to anal, almost 50% would. Some were easier than others, but if the guy insisted, many would.
And the women who I met that were best at anal sex, happen to be Japanese/Asian for some reason. Not exactly sure why this is so yet. But they seem to adapt to it and get off on it at a higher frequency.
As for oral sex. There are Japanese women that would give you a BJ, before they would tongue kiss you. BJs are more embedded in Japanese culture, from a young age. Where females would satisfy their boyfriend that way (orally or anally), as opposed to give her vagina OR as an alternate satisfaction to the guy where he wouldn't need condoms.
3) Pull out or rhythm method is more popular than Japanese will admit to.
How this works is the guy must PROVE he can do it. That is cum outside (on her stomach or breasts) or in her mouth.
The quiet Japanese guy style is to first use condoms, then PULL OUT, take the condom off, and then cum on her belly or in her mouth. The guy will do this a couple to several times to PROVE his skill at it.
However, if the guy makes a mistake or she feels the guy can't do, she will insist he go back to condoms or she will LEAVE the guy (sometimes without a word). Japanese women only do for guys they have tremendous trust in their skill.
Some women doing this method also track her period and "safe" days. So she knows, which days not to let the guy do her vagina (she still will always insist he cums outside).
This is of course is VERY politically incorrect and usually publicly unacknowledged by Japanese women.
4) Oddly, other birth control methods like IUDs are not widely known by many Japanese.
This is partly political, because since the Japanese population and birth rate is decreasing, there is pressure on Japanese women to not use any birth control at all. To include pills or condoms. And some Japanese doctors, with political agendas, can be very bad in applying pressure this way on women.
Rarely, you will find a Japanese woman that knows about and can get an IUD. Though the vast majority will use the other methods above. IUDs, by the way, can be used up to 3 to 5 years and are MORE effective than pills or condoms. Amazing how so few people know about them, but guys should, as this might be an option with certain girlfriends.
