Japanese proverb in Mind your language Mon Jan 15, 2007 8:06 am  Japanese proverb in Mind your language
 

Hi all,

I think I need some help from the native speakers. Can anybody here help me to comprehend what Taro Nagazumi is saying in this episode of Mind your language.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5tQSRzcunk

(on minute 08:50)

He said something like this

'Men hold seduces girl on hillside, not on the level.'

If that is really what he was saying. I really couldn`t catch it. And what does it mean anyway?

p/s:in case the link doesn`t work, it`s episode 4 part 2 of Mind your language. It has been bothering me for days now.Help, anybody!

Hi

Sorry can't receive this. I imagine it means: Men who are holding the seduced girl on the hillside are not genuine.
