When I visited Japan last November, I asked a few people whether everyone was as obsessed with Marie Kondo, the Japanese guru who inspires millions with her treatise on the magic of tidying up, as Americans were. Sure, they said. They knew about Kondo. But the real phenomenon, they told me, was a book called The Courage to be Disliked. Publicized sales figures back this up: The Courage to be Disliked , by writer Fumitake Koga and philosopher Ichiro Kishimi,  has sold 3.5 million copies across Asia. Kondo's website boasts book sales of 2.1 million in Japan, 125,000 in Taiwan, and 25,000 in China. The book is widely-billed as self-help in Japan, an empowering perspective on how to brush off social pressures and trust in your innate self-worth to find happiness. It was even made into a TV show featuring a detective—an unmarried woman in her 30s in a male-dominated field—who lives according to the lessons of the book. The female lead in the show was designed in part to appeal ...

A recent Wanda & Wayne advice column attempted to advise a woman trying her best to understand and expand her relationship with her pooch-obsessed boyfriend, "I'm dating a great guy, but his dog's outsized role is cramping our relationship," March 12. Readers barked and howled their opinions. Not surprising, most responses were pro-dog; somewhat surprising, many supported the over-the-top dog owner; and most surprising, few backed the girlfriend who wanted some dog-free time with her boyfriend. This included a no-dog Hawaii trip. While Wanda and Wayne felt these were perfectly reasonable requests, the boyfriend didn't want to trust his beloved pooch to a stranger's care. Many ignored that the girlfriend was asking for advice and instead sent their feedback directly to the boyfriend/doggie duo. The short-and-not-so-sweet "Dump her" was a common cry, while others' advice was a tad more thoughtful. TSW said, "Adios, chica. Don't let...
