A US Marine corporal has been arrested for filming a female sex worker in Naha, Okinawa.
The 22-year-old was arrested at the scene on May 4 for breaching a little-known law against filming sexual acts.
The Marine is attached to Camp Kinser (Machinato Service Area) in Urasoe on the main island of Okinawa. He told police, "I didn't know it was illegal [to film]." And if we're honest, that's fair enough. While a customer likely knows it's almost always against the brothel's rules and liable to land you in trouble, it might surprise many that you can actually face arrest for filming your ...
When confronted with a scandal, most Japanese politicians rely on a stock phrase: "I don't recall that."
And so it it was refreshing to see that Hiroyuki Miyazawa, the 49-year-old House of Representatives lawmaker, came clean and stated plainly: "I remember that."
A member of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party, Miyazawa recently resigned his seat when Weekly Bunshun reported on his penchant for papakatsu sugar daddy compensated dating and regular use of sex workers.
He is also supposed to have been practically living with a woman in her twenties during the pandemic, despite being ...
More bad news coverage about male hosts as the moral panic over this industry continues.
A Kabukicho host was arrested early last week for allegedly exploiting and prostituting a junior high school student who owed his club around ¥6 million.
The 22-year-old host Renji (Yuya Inaba) works at the appropriately named Worst Over in Kabukicho, central Tokyo. He is also accused of bringing the girl into his club when she was just 15 years old and serving her alcohol, including a very expensive "champagne tower" order.
The student used her mother's credit card and cash from her grandmother to ...
We love taking a trip not so much down memory lane as Japanese sex history lane, back to the early days of hair nudes (full-frontal shoots) and classic porn from the Showa era.
We previously took a nostalgic look at Japanese gravure idols from the 1970s and '80s that included the comely Nami Asada (麻田奈美).
Nami Asada made a real stir in the 1970s with her nude photo shoots that showcased her stunning F-cup breasts to the full.
The "apple nudes," where she used an apple prop to cover her most intimate parts, first appeared in 1973 in several issues of Heibon Punch magazine. They were ...
Revenge porn cases hit a record high in 2023, according to a report by the National Police Agency released on April 8.
The agency said that it received 1,812 consultations from people during the 2023 about nude images leaked by a partner or ex-partner.
It's up 4.9% from 2022 and marks the seventh year in a row in which cases have risen.
It is a worrying trend but, with the complete proliferation of phones and online culture, likely only to get worse. In part, the increase is also due to greater recognition of revenge porn as a phenomenon and a legal category, and criminalization of it ...
As we've written before, plastic surgery is an open secret in Japanese entertainment. Almost no one talks about it but everyone knows that some celebrities get it done. Only a small minority come forward and admit to having submitted to the surgeon's knife, and sometimes face mockery for it.
One such is Minami Fukuoka, the 28-year-old Tokyo University of Science graduate and former gravure model who now seems to make a living from media appearances and endorsing products on her social media channels.
Having apparently made a small fortune from live streaming -- to such an extent that she ...
We have all experienced times when we are horny. Often, the only solution is to sneak off somewhere and bust a nut to get rid of that pesky boner that just won't die down otherwise.
Some guys, though, take a different approach to dealing with their untamable sexual desires.
According to multiple reports in the media, police in Tokyo have arrested a man on suspicion of damaging property after he rubbed his anus against a faucet in a public park.
The self-employed 56-year-old's actions resulted in the faucet becoming unusable.
The faucet was in Roka Park, located in the residential ward ...
It sounds like an April's Fool but it's not: a group in a city in Gifu, central Japan, was preparing to give a sex education talk at an elementary school, when it was instructed by the school not to mention intercourse.
How can you do sex education without mentioning, well, sex?
The group, Kokoiku, is apparently used to such requests, and it employs a range of teaching tools, including dummies, to tell young people about how human bodies work, from menstruation to ejaculation and childbirth, but often has to leave out the answer to the most important question: Where do babies come ...
A man with Pakistani nationality has been charged on suspicion of indecent acts with variously aged women on the streets of Hanyu, following several other recent incidents in the Saitama city.
The unanmed 25-year-old man, who lives in Fujiishimogumi, Hanyu, has been additionally charged with the gropings and sent to the prosecutors.
Local police say there have been eight such cases in Hanyu, of which the man has now been additionally charged in connection with five.
The alleged incidents took place between July and December last year, and involved women in Hanyu either walking or ...
Where do fantasies about schoolgirls go too far? One example could be when you're upskirting schoolgirls at events.
School events are meant to be for kids, parents, and teachers. But it seems that some people -- perhaps sex-starved male parents! -- are more focused on the skimpy clothing that cheerleaders wear during school sporting tournaments, and take inappropriate pictures of them.
Female cheerleaders at the Koshien annual high school baseball tournament, which begins today, are often targets of sexualized photographs by some spectators.
Given that the young ladies are wearing ...
