highly romanticized concept
Linking Bushido and Christian Chivalry could either be a whitewash of the low ethical standard of historical Japan, or an attempt to say false and derogatory things about the high ethical standard of historical Christian Europe. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 13:20, 6 February 2010 (EST)

* A blogger writes, "You have to realize that all these concepts of Chivalry, Bushido etc are highly romanticized today. The Samurai of Japan for instance were just as treacherous and practical as any other in medieval society. Bushido was a concept which was rarely put in practice. Only in today's sanitized versions of Bushido do we read of honor and respect etc. [http://www.shadowedrealm.com/forum/topic/134-chivalry-and-bushido/]
