I have tried to explain the roots of Christmas to some of my Japanese friends, and the conversation usually goes like this:
Me: Christmas is a celebration of Christ's birth. That's why we call it Christmas: Christ Mass.
Japanese Friend: So, Christ is a fat man? And he wears a red suit?
Me: No, that's Santa. Christ was a little baby. You know, Jesus?
JF: And the fat man is his father? So he gives presents?
Me: No, Santa is not Jesus' father. He was a saint, called St. Nicholas, and he...gave stuff away. And I think he brought some dead kids back to life.
JF: He's very fat.
Me: In real life, he was skinny. The Coca-Cola company made him fat.
JF: American people are very fat.
Me (squirming uncomfortably): Not all of them.
JF: Yes, Brad Pitt is not fat. He is a handsome boy.
ME: Yes, he is very handsome.
JF: I would like to have romantic Christmas with him.
