三社祭のおしり


今日三社祭に行って、面白いパンツを見ました。友達の友達の居酒屋の前で道に寝ている3人の40代の男の人がいました。その3人ははっぴとふんどしを着ているままで寝ていました。日本人は恥ずかしいがりだと思います。でもお酒と祭の時は積極的になるかもしれない。

I went to the Sanja festival today and saw some interesting underwear. In front of my friend's friend's bar three men were sleeping on the street. They were wearing "fundoshi" (underwear that looks like the thong that sumo wrestlers wear) and "happi" (like a short cotton bathrobe that is bright and colorful), traditional festival wear. I alway thought that Japanese tend to get embarrased easily. I guess that with alcohol and festivals they have no inhibitions.
