Good firm.  He sounds like he has a bright future.

It's so funny that there is this frenzy over him being unsuitable and he is..... a corporate lawyer.  How much more staid can you get?

According to the NYT article, the objections included the fact that he had "shaggy" hair (gasp!), then a ponytail (gasp!), ate from food trucks (like every other midtown office worker!) (gasp!) and wore a pin-striped suit rather than a plain black or navy suit to the press conference.

Kudos to both of them for getting through this ridiculous circus with calm and grace.  I probably would have overturned the table, given the press the finger and stormed out of there.  Bye!  [/quote]

I've been to a lot of foreign countries but the way the Japanese are acting with this is very surprising to me. I mean the Imperial family lives in the heart of Tokyo. You want to see non-confirmist hair (gasp!) that's the city to go to.

Yes, but that's all playacting.  It'd be like attending Comic-Con and thinking that that sub-culture represented the culture as a whole.  And at the upper end of Japanese society, where Mako is expected to me, they would never dream of doing such a thing.  You go to the right schools, get the right jobs at the right companies, and wear prim, buttoned up outfits just like everyone else.  Do not even think of setting a foot out of line.  [/quote]
