	Comments on: Skinship (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		All my life in Canada I never heard of such a word and if it is a word that was introduced by the Japanese (Japlish?) then it hardly counts as a loan word into English as it is a modified English word introduced into Japanese to be returned into English with a new meaning.
		Someone asserted that Koreans pronounce the word the English way, while Japanese pronounce it as “sukinshippu.” True or not, it is clearly it is used in both places.
		And I thought that skinship was a Korean construction.

		Skinship (sukinshippu in Japan) is an example of a Japanese-coined English word.

		The onsen is basically a Japanese public bath (sento) with natural hot spring water, and its history and etiquette are very related to the sento.
		The onsen plays an important role in Japanese culture, providing (socially) institutionalised relief from the pressures of the contemporary Japanese twelve-hour work ethic and a chance for Japanese to break down the hierarchal nature of society through the mutual nakedness of skinship.
		Ideally, they should be outdoors, use naturally hot water directly extracted from a natural volcanic spring, and they are often embellished with (or, in the cheaper varieties, replaced by) a wide variety of extravagant spa baths, artificial waterfalls and saunas.
