Japan vs America: Safety 【日本 VS アメリカ (安全面)】日英字幕

The video was too long so in a couple days I will upload the second part about harassment! Sorry, I know I'm talking fast! There are captions in English and Japanese so please use them if you can't understand me! 今回、動画が長かった為、2，3日中に後半の"ハラスメント"についての動画をアップ­します。 And because the video was too long I edited out the disclaimers I needed to say to prevent people from nitpicking some of the small details, but I will write some of them here: 動画の尺の都合上、誤解を生まないようにするための注意文を編集で省いておりますので­、こちらに書いておきます。 America isn't a place where I constantly go around feeling afraid or anything, and it's definitely not a place I would consider "unsafe." But it IS a place where I feel like I have to be more guarded and aware of my surroundings, especially compared to Japan. Women in America are raised to be extremely careful of strangers, for example. It's not something that's constantly in the front of our mind, but rather something that is imprinted in the back of our minds so that when we recognize a situation that we've been told about red flags start shooting up all over the place and in that moment we become more guarded and careful. アメリカは私が常に不安を感じて生活しなければならないような場所では決してありませ­ん。しかし、とりわけ日本と比べると、より周囲に気を配り、油断しないように心掛ける­べき国だとは思います。例えば、アメリカでは、女性は知らない他人には細心の注意払う­べきだと教えられます。生活する上で、常にそれが念頭にある訳ではありませんが、警戒­心を煽る状況に遭遇した場合は、油断なく行動するべきだと脳裏に刻まれています。 For example, if I'm walking out to my car in a parking lot at night and there is a van parked next to the driver's side of my car, immediately there will be red flags that go off and I have to think, "Should I ask a worker or security guard to walk me out to my car?" 例えば、夜に駐車場に向かい、自分の車の運転席側の隣にバンが横付けされていたら、す­ぐに警戒し、警備員に同行してもらうべきかを考えます。 So what I'm tying to say is there are many types of situations that produce red flags for me in America, but the exact same situation in Japan would not produce a red flag for me because it is much more uncommon for something to happen in that situation in Japan that it is in America! 私にとって、アメリカでは色々な種類の警戒心を煽る状況がありますが、それらの状況は­、しかし日本ではあまり警戒する必要の無い事が多いのです。
