June Joshikai: Thursday, 6/10 - Women's Networking Event
Theme: Dating Japanese Men
Joshikai is a networking group for Japanese women and women with a connection to Japan. On Thursday, June 10th, we'll meet for an evening of happy hour drinks, networking, and girl talk at Postrio, a stylish downtown bar. Mingle, chat and share stories with other women in English and / or Japanese. Any skill level of Japanese is welcome, and this will be a great opportunity to practice your Japanese and connect with women who have similar interests.
At this event, we'll have a special guest and a theme: dating Japanese men! Women who have dated, are currently involved with, or are interested in Japanese men – come share your horror and success stories (of course, as usual, any woman who’d like to join is welcome!). Our guest will be writer Wendy Tokunaga, who has written about intercultural relationships in her novels "Midori by Moonlight" and Love in Translation" (and who is also married to a Japanese man). She'll be available to answer your questions individually - about writing, the publishing industry, and her own experiences with international marriage. You can learn more about Wendy at http://
We've reserved Postrio's Mezzanine lounge area, so we'll have a comfortable place to relax. They've extended the happy hour for us until 7:30 pm; specials include cocktails, beers and wine, as well as yakitori, pork belly and other bar appetizers -- all starting at $4! We'll post signs so you can find us easily. Feel free to join us whenever is convenient, and bring friends!
女子会の皆さん、
5月の会合にもたくさんの方々に来ていただきました。ありがとうございました！会合場所のＰｒｅｓｓＣｌｕｂもお洒落な雰囲気と各種ワインが好評でした。ありがとうございました。
さて、次回の会合は女子会のホームグランドPostrioのMezzanine Loungeで行います。ハッピーアワーを7時半まで延長していただきました。ありがとうＪｕｎさん！今回は特別ゲストとしてWendy Tokunagaさんをお迎えして、国際恋愛シリーズ第2弾「日本人の男って、、、」と題して日本人男性との恋愛について考えてみたいと思います。Wendyさんは、国際恋愛、異文化コミュニケーション、アイデンティティーなどテーマに、「Midori by Moonlight」 と 「Love in Translation」という小説を出版しています。ご自身も日本人男性と結婚してます。
日本人男性はどうしてシャイなの？ストレートに物事を言わないし、何を考えてるかわからない。日本人男性にはロクなのがいない！とほとんど愛想を尽かしている方も、是非ご参加ください。もしかしたら身近すぎて魅力に気がつかなかっただけなのかも、、、と思うかどうかはわかりませんが、みんなでいつものようにリラックスしながらおしゃべり、情報交換、ネットワークに花を咲かせましょう！
