so, there is danger in discussing a particularized Japanese phenotype, for in making this point there is the potential risk of perpetuating the very myth that Suzuki and many others are motivated to debunk. By saying that the zainichi “look like Japanese” are we not perpetuating the homogeneous Japan thesis? There are real social outcomes that result from discourses of homogeneity, and in framing our arguments we adopt language that recognizes these realworld consequences, but we need to be careful in qualifying our discussion to include and recognize the diversifying face of contemporary Japanese society. Such an approach would further contribute to change and recognition.

弗朗西斯卡·迪马可《二十世纪日本的自杀》

因此，讨论特定的日本表型存在危险，因为在提出这一点时，存在使铃木和许多其他人想要揭穿的神话永久化的潜在风险。说在日“看起来像日本人”，我们不是在延续日本同质论吗？同质性话语会产生真实的社会结果，在构建我们的论点时，我们采用了承认这些现实世界后果的语言，但我们需要谨慎地限定我们的讨论，以包括和承认当代日本社会的多元化面貌。这种方法将进一步促进变革和认可。
