You might here Japanese women say things like:

“I don’t have a type, I just like the kind of guys that I fall for.”
“I’ll might just fall for a guy that pats me on the head.”
“Guys who play sports are so cool!”
“Guys that are good at their jobs drive me wild.”
“It doesn’t matter how nerdy a guy is, I look past that to the person inside to decide whether I like them or not.”

Reading this you might think that women care more about what’s inside a person than what’s outside. But you’d be WRONG!

The statements above only apply to good-looking men.

This might upset you, but if you think about it, men also place a lot of weight on how a woman looks.

Japanese girls especially place high value on looks. We like handsome, well-dressed men. What does that mean for regular guys? You need to work on your image.

There are simple measures that you can take to make yourself look attractive in the eyes of us Japanese.

If you are overweight, loose some pounds. If you are a smoker with yellow teeth, go to the dentist to get them whitened. If your hair is a mess, get a new haircut.

Fashion is also very important. A hoodie and baggy jeans won’t really get you anywhere with Japanese women. Especially now, skinny guys are popular. Skinnier jeans, nice shirts etc.

You don’t have to become Brad Pitt or Denzel Washington. All you have to do is standout from the crowd. Be just a little bit more handsome/fashionable than the other foreign guys around you and it will make a big difference.
