What do you think of when you think of Japan? Do you think of an island nation that is ruled by its history? Do you think of shy women with their faces painted white? If your answer is yes, you're not alone! But look beyond the cultural stereotypes of Japan and you'll find there's a lot to learn about what life for Japanese teens is like.



Are you a teen who lives in a country other than the United States? Tell us what country you are from and if you would like to write about your teen life for Teen Voices or Teen Voices Online. We’re waiting for your email at TeenVoices@

We are currently researching an article about Australia and are looking for Australian teen girls to share their experiences with Teen Voices. Write to us today!
