Don't be afraid of expressing you.

When I learn speaking English, I'm often told that we have to express us more.
According to my friend who is an Indonesian international student, not only Japanese but also Asian tend not to want to insist their opinion.
And American or Westerner tends to prefer exchanging their opinion.
Moreover, they dislike one who doesn't have his or her opinion.


I think so too.
Because I often accept one's opinion without thinking of it.
It is just my opinion, Japanese may tend to dislike to make their opinion clear and to argue with someone.
For them, not to mention me, it is troublesome.
They may prefer accepting someone's opinion to doing something troublesome like it.
And they may be gradually afraid of expressing them because they don't usually express them very much.

I think we should change our mind if we hope to talk in English.
We should exchange our opinion more.
