I thought it was from some old wives' tale about Japanese men getting nosebleeds when aroused. o.O

It stems from an old japanses wives tale about how a nosebleed was a males 'lust' leaving the body. Men (especially older men) typically get more nosebleeds then women so it became synonymous with perverted old man behavior. Also interesting is the concept of sneezing because someone is talking about you. Yet another cultural habit.
