I visited Animatagi during my time at AIU but not the other place. You dropped lucky - or was Ashmore-sensei involved?<br /><br />I include the matagi in the book I am writing about phallicism in Japan - I'll send you the refs - I dont think your hosts would have told you about the painful rituals!<br /><br />Keep up the good work - there's nothing like observation.<br /><br />I will be briefly at AIU in June.<br /><br />Well done!<br /><br />Stephen Turnbull<br /><br />stephenturnbull@ntlworld.com<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
