I need a better closer...
I need a better closing line.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'll think about it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, I'm sorry to interrupt but I found this little paper.
And it's you who put your name on it, right?
Oh, yes.
And it's wrong.
Oh, yes.
Oh, yes.
Okay, so this here, okay?
Sorry, I just happened to be found this one.
So this is a document of a, um...
So you know how I changed my address, right?
Changed my home.
So I need to turn in my...
I was like, "I'll just do it digitally!"
It's just easier.
So I typed in my name, I print it out, and I sent two copies, right?
One for the shiakusho, one for hikae.
And you're looking at the hikae.
And right.
And I have noticed something.
I was shocked too.
My name...
Same reading but different kanji.
Yeah.
Right, right.
The henkan was mistaken.
But it's accepted?
See, this is what freaks me out.
Okay.
So first of all, my kanji is wrong.
Yeah.
Okay?
Sure, it might have missed it.
It's the hen.
And then you call it hen.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hen is wrong.
That's it.
Yeah.
Right?
But the other thing is...
So this is my old address, okay?
This is me identifying who I am, right?
My old address.
And "i do henkou go no nozechi"
Yeah.
Nozechi, the one before that is the one for the shiakusho.
I wrote that, right?
This is it.
And for "i do go no nozechi"
I left it blank accidentally.
I accidentally left it blank.
Okay, "i do go no your address."
And they stamped it and brought it back to me.
So this was accepted somehow.
What the fuck did they accept?
Did they accept?
Did I just change my name on it?
Is that what they accepted?
I was so shocked when this came back to me.
03:01
I've mistaken my name.
I didn't write my new address.
And they still put a stamp on it and sent it back to me.
There's nothing, man.
I know.
It's...
It was so...
Astonishing.
What is accepted?
I know.
So the only thing changed here is my name.
I guess my name was changed now.
Wow.
Yeah.
It's just...
So I resent it.
Oh, you resent it?
Yeah, I resent it.
And I'm waiting for the reply.
Okay, okay.
That's...
Yeah.
Because you just declared that I was living here.
That's all, right?
That's all, yeah.
That's what I said.
You already know this, but I live here.
I was like, "Okay, I understand."
That's what happened here.
I changed the place and I was living there.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I know.
It's so weird.
It's weird paper.
It's weird.
It's surprising that they would do that.
Okay.
Okay.
All right.
So this is from Sarine-san today.
Sarine-san.
Okay.
Konnichiwa.
Konnichiwa.
Okay.
This one.
I'm listening to your podcast, which is updated every evening, in the car.
It's my daily routine.
It's been about eight months.
Oh, thank you.
I enjoy listening to it every day.
Thank you.
All right.
I have two questions.
Okay.
The first one is...
If you were born a female, what kind of life would you like to experience?
Yeah.
Wow.
Okay.
Thank you.
Thank you.
All right.
Let's answer this question.
All right.
One thing I want to do is wear a skirt.
Oh, you can wear a skirt?
Well, that would just be freaky, right?
If I suddenly start wearing skirts.
I'll accept you.
Well, thank you.
Thank you.
We are in the age of diversity.
We are.
But I was...
Why you want to wear those skirt?
Because I feel like that's something that men can never experience.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, if it's your real desire.
06:01
Sure.
I'm not stopping you.
True.
Okay.
Just so you know, I have no plans of being whatever you call this.
Okay.
Since now there's so many names for whatever it's about to happen.
Yeah.
But like, for example, like it's the feel of like...
That's almost like you're being in your underwear.
Right?
You're talking about the short length skirt?
No, no, no.
If any skirt.
Okay.
Besides the long skirt.
Okay.
Like I feel like if you wear a skirt like around the knees, it just feels like...
I feel like if I go out there, if I were to wear a skirt out there, it just feels so unprotected.
Yeah.
I feel like it's just I'm in my underwear walking.
And I just feel like how uncomfortable or comfortable that would make me feel is a test
that I want to try out.
Yeah.
And you're right.
I can try it if I want to.
Yeah.
Right?
You can try on and go strolling around.
I did strolling around my favorite town.
Yeah.
Tokyo.
Yeah.
You can wear your favorite sneaker on.
True.
True.
My favorite walking sneaker.
Yeah.
You can try it on.
Yeah.
Okay.
I guess I'll make a trip to Uniqlo.
Yeah.
Get myself like a skirt or something.
High heels too.
High heels.
High heels.
I wonder how that would make me feel.
High heels.
See, I mean, as a friend.
Okay.
Tell me.
If that's your real desire.
If that's your real thing that you want to be actually.
Okay.
You can actually.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you for telling me that.
Yeah.
I'm here to support you.
Thank you.
I understand you.
I appreciate your support.
Yeah.
But it's not like the burning desire that I can't hold in.
So it's okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
So tell me.
I will send you something.
Oh, no, no problem.
No problem.
Okay.
Yeah.
I will.
Thank you.

So anything you have in mind.
You want to be born a girl.
Like flip my hair.
Like on the shampoo commercials.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And ride on like bike.
You know, and have us let us, you know, let a jacket.
I mean, you can do that as a guy.
No, it for guy.
That's not super cool.
It's cool.
But if you know long hair lady wearing leather jacket riding on a huge motorcycle and that's
not super cool.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
It's really sexy and that's super cool.
Oh, okay.
If you think about it, I've actually never seen a long haired leather jacket and woman
riding riding a look like a motorcycle.
Have you seen one?

Me too.
Like Hollywood movies or something like that.

Or like keep your hair long.
Mm hmm.
And cut suddenly into really short hair.
Why?
Because like, why do you want to do that?
Well, that's that's cool.
You change long hair into like really short hair.
Mm hmm.
And everybody will see you and and I will say, you know, you want to do that.
You want to do that.
Wow.
Yeah.
I mean, it's true that guys can't change their hairstyle as dramatically as women.
Yeah.
When women can.
Yeah.
Right.
Because it's they have a bigger width of like.
Yeah.
The difference, right?
Bigger.
Well, yeah.
Hmm.
Will you ever be excited for makeups?
Oh, makeups.

Makeup.

And my face didn't accept any of those makeups.
What do you mean, except?
Accept.
Sorry.
Oh, right.
What do you mean, except?
It didn't work.
It didn't go on.

It didn't do its job.
Yeah.
Like.
They put me like the mascara.
Yeah.
Or whatever, eyeshadows, whatever.
Yeah.
They put those things on my skin.
But it's same.
Oh, you don't look different.
It makes any difference.
Yeah.
Wow.
So I don't like makeups.
Well, I mean, maybe the makeup was bad.
Really?
Yeah.
Like, I don't.
Maybe the makeup was bad, you know.
But that was the, you know, ladies makeup equipment.
And it was those cute ladies who did it for you.
Who did it to me.
And they are cute.
OK, well.
Well, maybe they're not using.
Maybe.
Maybe it doesn't.
I don't know why you are trying to.
Maybe you needed to choose the right one for men.
Right?
Like it's, it needs to be stronger.
True.
The color has to be stronger.
I guess.
You know.
That's true.
Right.
For men to really make that difference.
That's true.
Yeah.
Then if I were a girl, then it works.
It would work.
It would work.
Yeah, I think it would.
