When I sometimes go back to Japan for a holiday and to visit my family, it is quite common to see people reading, sleeping, messaging or playing games their mobile phones, but recently I have been surprised to see a lot of women putting on their make up on the train. They don't seem to mind going out in public with unpainted faces and applying make up in front of everyone. Not just teenagers, but adult women too! Maybe they value their sleep and can't be bothered to get up 15 minutes earlier to do their make up at home. This is something that I have never seen in Australia. For me, this is like getting on the train naked, and getting dressed in front of everyone.
Am I too conservative and old fashioned?
