I can't give you specifics off the top of my head. As I said, this isn't something that has come up a great deal. Just to be clear, I'm speaking from general impression that has been left with me from various bits of media relating to Japan (some anime, manga, and movies): I cannot right now point you to a specific example and say "here is what I am talking about" because my memory isn't that clear. I may have to do some digging to see if I can find what I'm thinking of.
It is also possible that I am confusing this for something else. It is possible I'm getting some eastern and western cultural concepts mixed in my head, or maybe something else. As I said, this isn't an issue that comes up all that often.
