I don't know if this is accurate, but I found this: "In public, some women in Omiya still walk a few steps behind their husbands on the narrow, winding slivers of pavement that pass for streets, the women careful not to offend a man's dignity by stepping on his shadow." http://www.nytimes.com/1996/06/...ted=all&src=pm

Yes, no more quarrels. Have you ever heard something about not walking on a man's shadow? Seems a bit crazy to me.

No...

That article seems to be full of misinformation and cliches about Japan.
