Now, in your own words, tell me what that means. Then, give one example of a counterculture in the U.S. culture.

great exchange of ideas... just wanted to say that the idea of Japan being a culturally homogenous society can be challenged:

Homogenous Japan:
Demographics of Japan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Multicultural Japan:
ANU Reporter-Books and Arts

Real Culture is what we have. Idea culture is subjective and unattainable.

Ideal culture: something you see in a museum display and what would be associated with that.

Real culture: LIVED culture. Exists in everyday life.
