We all love nude selfies. Regular readers will know how we have documented the wonders of the ladies in Japan who love to put their bodies out there for all the world to enjoy.
But this may be coming to an end.
The Asahi Shimbun reports that "nude selfies" are being targeted by "online perverts", so the Tokyo government is keen to criminalize them.
Anyone who "requests" a nude selfie may be punished by a new regulation under consideration by Tokyo officials.
In a bid to stop a perceived rise in teenagers sending such lewd self-portraits, the Tokyo metropolitan government ...
Another week and another survey brings grim news about sex in Japan.
Following the news wire article a few days ago about 26.9% of idols being sexually harassed that has been making the rounds of various English-language publications, now comes another one about that perennial favorite: sexless Japan.
Japan seems to be, if we believe the media, a sexless and barren land -- or a hyper-sexualised place of weird fetishes and mountains of porn. What is the truth? Both at the same time? Neither? Or something more nuanced in between?
Needless to say, a blog like this hardly paints the best ...
A Japanese newswire article about sexual harassment among aspiring models and idols is doing the rounds, confirming what we've been saying for years.
Apparently, a government survey has shown that 26.9% of Japanese young female models and starlets have received "unwanted requests for sexually oriented photo shoots".
This comes hot on the heels of last year's controversy about widespread coercion in the porn industry.
In the first survey by the Cabinet Office on sexual abuse against young women, 7.7% of respondents had been offered contracts to become models or starlets.
Asked about ...
Tokyo police arrested the female president and four others for operating an online chat room on FC2 Live.
The operator, OK, had a pay-to-view chat room where women would masturbate or perform other sexual acts on camera for the pleasure of viewers. The charges are, perhaps not surprisingly, public indecency or obscenity.
Based out of a condo in Roppongi, OK was led by Kaori Okada (30), who is alleged to have appeared in the online videos herself. We have made some screen grabs of such a video, though we cannot confirm if this is Okada masturbating in front of a webcam. She has amazing ...
Some time ago we wrote about the 1990s scandal in which Ministry of Finance bureaucrats were arrested for receiving favors, including trips to shabu shabu restaurants where the female staff wore no panties.
Such "no-pan kissa" (no-panties coffee shops or cafes) or restaurants peaked during the 1980s, especially in Osaka and Tokyo, and had many variations. Some had mirrored floors so diners could see up waitresses' skirts. Others may have offered "extras" not on the official menu. They might serve drinks or full meals -- but there was always a smile on the face of the clientele.
In many ...
Back in June last year we blogged about "porn star karaoke" in Japan, where a karaoke system features AV stars who generously strip off naked as you sing. Now that's encouragement.
Something similar has become a kind of minor talking point online recently. Once again, it's for Joysound (specifically, Joysound fR) and has Japanese porn stars.
This time, if you sing well, you are "rewarded" with a mildly censored image of a nude AV idol both during the track and at the end.
But if you stop singing, the footage switches to muscular men. If you're bisexual, it's a win-win. Otherwise, ...
Some people really don't care. All they want is for the whole world to enjoy their body.
And this ultra-exhibitionist Japanese girl is one of them. Not only does she put nude pictures of herself online for everyone and anyone to view on Twitter, she even makes sure she shows her face so you can get a complete idea of who she is. And what a beauty she is.
She has an awesome bust, that's for sure, but also nicely pointy nipples, too. Plus she's thankfully not afraid to show us her lovely bush (unless you would have preferred a lady who's fully shaved, that us) -- nor is she shy about ...
We have recently seen a lot of controversy in the porn industry in Japan over coercion after several prominent cases where women, including current stars, have come forward to allege they were forced to perform when they were originally scouted on different terms.
It is one of the AV industry's dirty secrets that no one liked to talk about until last year. It has led to arrests and court cases as well as a wave of bad publicity in the mainstream media.
And the latest "victim" of the controversy is not even a member of the industry!
Now a lawyer who represented a production company ...
Of all the dozens of hot ladies showing off the cars at the annual Tokyo Auto Salon this year, this one particular "companion" (as they are somewhat euphemistically known) has apparently generated the most amount of viral juices... and it's not hard to see why.
Not only does she have a revealing bust and slinky waist, but she is also showing off her pink panties.
In case you are wondering, the lovely lady is cosplayer Komitsujo. There's never been a better reason to like cars or cosplay!
Of course, the attendees to the Tokyo Auto Salon go there for ...
We all love interacting with our favorite idols on social media. Following their feeds is a way to feel closer to their lives; it tricks us into thinking that we actually "know" them or could actually meet them one day.
After all, the whole original selling point of AKB48 -- other than the vast number of idols in the various levels of the group -- was that these were idols you could meet at "handshaking events" and vote for by at "elections".
And so we get to see the drinks idols ordered at a cafe, or their latest meal or lovely view they are enjoying somewhere.
The selfie has become ...
