Can someone translate following in little more plain english?

Strange article. The idea that all Japanese women were appealing to begin with–and that none of them are appealing anymore– is sexist. It’s not as if they are machines programmed to adapt to any man’s tastes and desires (like the hookers in ‘Westworld’).
Hmm… Someone must have discovered that Canadian chicks were easier.
This “news story” is all anecdotes and silly, subjective generalizations. I enjoyed NSFW pictures of Asian Barbies with plastic boobies more than this awful drivel. Out of all the good stuff at Japundit, you chose to backtrack this?
Oops, I meant “trackback.”
