LOL not true😊 But it is one “measure of standards” that is very generalized to encourage people to be healthier.

I would fail otherwise but I’m also taller than most Japanese😉
@GoFish I am there often and will be in a couple of months. My folks are there

that would be insane. I would barely pass. here anything under 40 inches is low risk.
GoFish ·
@SirLirkALot oh 😳
What if you end up being six foot five? 😂
Is there a punishment if you exceed the regulated waist size?🤔
GoFish ·
@UnderLockDown idk maybe they are mostly short
