Your wife married a foreigner, and you are touting her bias as some overarching trend? Japanese men bad; foreigner good. Come on...

I respect that you admit it's anecdotal, but this goes well into data gleaned from self selection bias.

My wife didn't marry me because Japanese guys are shitty, she was far too young to know better when we met. This is coming from a person who interacts with married women living in Japan. Her personal opinion of Japanese guys was not formed until after interactions with these women. Even then, you could argue she is biased just by the company she keeps. I'm just telling you what I hear from my sources.
