		<description><![CDATA[I know this is old, but Japan doesn&#039;t hate foreigners like everyone thinks! Granted, they &quot;fear&quot; us because they hear horror stories and have stereotypes, just like we hear them about them and do to them as well. I know that they had a VERY good reason for doing it this way. Maybe it helps keep track of users better. Maybe if Americans got a phone they could. For example, I have a mixi. I signed with a phone address, and they gave options to enter my residence. Now, if the intention was to &quot;shut out&quot; Americans, why did they have &quot;在外&quot; as an option, which means &quot;Overseas&quot;? and when I clicked it, they gave me &quot;アメリカ合衆国&quot; which means &quot;The United States of America&quot; Maybe they forgot...yeah right. They like us. They hear stuff and sometimes they don&#039;t like the way we do things here in America but they like us. And it&#039;s the same with us: Sometimes they do things we don&#039;t particularly approve of, but we like them because it&#039;s two different cultures and usually once we get eachother&#039;s perspective on things, we feel better. :3]]></description>
