Sickening Japanese porn - Pretty much SFW
 
Was just reading on this and wanted some opinions from others, especially other people living in Japan. It seems pretty messed up to me.

The Horrific Japanese Porn Industry

Pretty much worksafe - there are a couple of pics but both are only shelves in a store

Can't disagree with any of the article. I especially find the kiddie porn to be absolutely disgusting. The company I work for was interviewed by Japan Playboy a few years back (all the interest in why so many foreigners were moving here) and they sent us a copy of the issue with the article. Having a look through at the back of the magazine there was an 'Up and coming' section. Here they had girls as young as 13 posing provocatively in swim wear and underwear. Now Playboy is pretty mainstream soft porn. I shudder to think what some of the magazines out there are like.

From things I've read there is a real issue in this country in regards to rape victims seeking any sort of justice. Not disimilar to what is was like in the west many years back where the women ended feeling more like she was on trial rather than the rapist. I read an article by a Japanese lawyer recently that said it's also an issue because of the tendency of prosecutors here not to go to court with a case that they aren't confident of winning (It can be a career killer for a prosecutor to lose a case). And most rape cases are not a slam dunk unless they can get a confession out of the accused so most cases just don't make it to court.

I say it up to the person, and what does it for them. As long as it is legal, of course, but other than that, if its what you like, go for it, no matter how disgusting or perverted. I have been told by friends that I'm really open-minded and unshockable, so.........

I also bought myself a 'Warning - Rated 'H'' T-shirt. lol. Make what you will of that. :rolleyes:

I'm with you on that Jambo except when it comes to kids. Kids have no place in anything to do with the porn industry as far as I'm concerned.

I don't know if that's a valid statistic or defense. As mentioned in the article there are a lot of restrictions on what rape is, for example, and a lot of reasons why the figures stay low other than "man ain't rapin'"

You can buy rape fantasy videos in the US, too. That is not exclusive to Japan.

And I have seen those underage model videos sold at convenience stores, too. I am not sure what they are marketed as, and I am curious what their parents are told by the "talent scout" that approaches them. Do they think the little girls is going to be a pop star?

GoNative 11-12-2010 02:06 AM

I don't know what the parents are thinking either MMM. In the US or Australia if you circulated pictures of kids like that you'd be up on charges in no time. Here it's acceptable and I just don't get it. Ok they're not naked or involved in any sexual acts but having pictures of pre-pubescent kids posed provocatively in underwear and swim wear is not cool under any circumstances in my opinion. I really don't get why they accept it here.

MMM 11-12-2010 02:29 AM

I don't know about Australia, but in the US there us a subculture of children's beauty pageants. I think most people see it as candy for pedophiles, but some people are really into it.
