==Gardens==
Not a single mention of gardens. I think there's quite a bit to say, that for example lawns and suburban gardens as found across much of the rest of the western world are usually absent, and in fact modern homes often have no garden to speak of at all, whereas older Japanese homes often at least had japanese gardens. I can't write it myself because I just don't know the whys of all this, but would be interested if someone who knows about it could write a section.--[[User:Hontogaichiban|Hontogaichiban]] ([[User talk:Hontogaichiban|talk]]) 16:34, 30 November 2016 (UTC)

Line 24 ⟶ 29:
Does anyone know the original source of the description of Japanese people as "living in rabbit hutches"? It might have been from a U.N. report in the 1960s or 1970s. The term has had a lasting effect on Western perception of Japanese housing and reference to it would be a helpful addition to the article. The Japanese census collects information on floor space, and one wonders whether it's in response to this description. If anyone knows the results of the census question on housing, it to would be a valuable statistic to cite.

: "The originator of the phrase is reportedly Sir Roy Denman, who, as director-general for external relations of the EC Commission in 1979, referred to the Japanese in a confidential internal memo as “workaholics living in rabbit hutches.”"[http://www.people.fas.harvard.edu/~aeggers/rabbithutches4.pdf]. Another theorey has it that it was an overly literal translation of the French phrase "cage a lapins" [http://www.japan-guide.com/forum/quereadisplay.html?0+39549] [http://www.ocada.jp/life/house.htm]. (I think that Japanese housing is less urban, more likely to be detached, and not so small especially when owned, but I have yet to find the stats corresponding to those at the beginning of this article. If it is the case that Japanese housing is not so small, then a section on myths regarding Japanese housing might be in order) And alas I read that Fg2 (hani) is deceased--[[User:Timtak|Timtak]] ([[User talk:Timtak|talk]]) 20:18, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
