They don’t bring around their mates everywhere, which means they don’t worry about being single, gay, or whatever because no one cares about whom others are having/ not having sex with.

They don’t have the so-called “couple culture” seen in many Western countries.

What happens if someone fills up their car at the pump but leaves without paying? How is this situation typically handled?

“None of my business” is the common attitude.

They don’t have the value that “guys must be macho.”

Yaoi

It’s very common for a girl/ woman to ask a boy/ man to be her boyfriend.

They don’t tease or beat up cross-dressed people on the road.

If James Bond is meant to be the best secret agent in the world, how come all the bad guys in the World seem to know who he is?

Moreover, buff guys are often avoided for their narcissism.
