We love documenting the intriguing fetishes that exist out there -- and be sure, we don't do out of any sense of judging! Quite the opposite, we are kind of celebrating difference. Anyway, another example has just come to light. A man was arrested in Kanagawa prefecture over the weekend for stealing. Nothing new in that, except that he stole bicycle seats. A lot of them. 200 of them. Police first came to see Joji Kondo to investigate the theft of three seats from an apartment block at around 4:45 AM on August 22nd. In Kondo's lair of pungent desire, they found 200 bicycle ...

Japanese cops have guns and in theory can shoot someone if necessary. Well, some shoot other things. Kozo Shirakawa, a 46-year-old sergeant in Kagawa, was nothing if not ingenious. He attached a special spy camera to his shoe so he could film up women's skirts. The camera was on the inside and could shoot from a small hole in the leather. One August Sunday afternoon he took his invention to a department store in Takamatsu, where he was trying it out by filming up the skirt of a 23-year-old woman. Surely this guy should be given bonus points for innovation and brazenness. The ...

We spend a lot of time bashing AKB48 on this blog but we have to finally admit the truth. We think Haruna Kojima is hot. Actually, keen-eyed readers will likely have already deduced this from certain drooling articles in the past. We previously blogged with glee about Haruna's new work modeling for Peach John, Japan's lingerie brand that is similar to Victoria's Secret. She's back in a new series of ads which feature Haruna sleeping... perfect for imagining what it's like to be snuggled up close to her. We're not sure about the red hair but we do like it when she cups her bust ...

A Korean politician on a board for women and families once claimed that there are around 50,000 Korean prostitutes in Japan, some 2,500 in Australia and 250 in Guam. "In the whole world there are 100,000," said Okuyi Kim. The reason why so many Korean women enter the world's oldest profession? Well, money must be the main one. 10 Korean women arrested in Canada in May 2012 gave that explanation to police. Foreign prostitutes in the US are said to be 23.5% Korean, the largest of any nationality, followed by 11.7% Thai and 10% Peruvian. With Korea's own tightening of prostitution laws in ...

Not a question I often ask myself... but apparently they have! So says Dr. Akiko Tanaka, who has apparently photographed over 8,000 vaginas. Here's where we get a bit technical. Tanaka says that the labia majora in women today used to be thicker and covered the labia minora more. But now the labia stand out more than they did in the past. Why? Apparently it's all due to dieting. The skin on the labia has got slimmer due to girls always going on diets. All this biological change has led some girls naturally to become conscious of their conspicuous pussies, having being told by ...

It was just after three on the afternoon of August 16th, a scorching hot day in Hirano, east Osaka. Hirano is notorious for bag-snatching and other crime, so when police got a call from a twenty-six-year-old girl that her purse had been grabbed while cycling home, no doubt they weren't surprised. Until she gave her description of the criminal. "This is a first," said the police. According to the girl, the man was aged between 30 and 35, with a crew cut and muscular build. But he had chosen to steal her handbag with its 9,000 yen inside wearing the most unusual of crime world ...

Tokyo Reporter had an intriguing (if worrying) article recently from the Japanese media about a maid cafe in Roppongi being raided for employing underage girls. Officers took Ryuji Shimizu, 41, the manager of Archangels Tokyo, into custody for allegedly employing a 16-year-old girl as a waitress after 10 p.m. — a violation of the Law Regulating Adult Entertainment Businesses. The girl, who was attired in a light kimono known as a yukata, received an hourly wage of 1,050 yen per hour. This reminds us of the recent girls' bar scandal in Osaka and it seems police are now cracking ...

It is customary to have a celebrity make the first pitch at baseball games in Japan. Last Saturday sexy thirtysomething model Mitsu Dan made the pitch for a game in Akita and did so in her typically alluring style. We're not sure how this would have gone down with the mothers in the stadium or watching on TV, but the dads seemed to love it at any rate. After coming out in the team uniform, Dan quickly defies the usual way of doing things by stripping down to a very revealing swimsuit to throw her pitch, and then proceeds to frolic with the team mascot. Apparently the ...

And the secret to Korean girls' beauty? Is it plastic surgery as the rumors have it? Hard work? Magical cosmetics? No. It's angles. Angles define how you see and what you see. And this girl demonstrates brilliantly how can transform your entire face without the need to change diet, do a workout or take drugs. To be fair, she is hardly the country's sexiest film star and appears to have a bit of flab around her chin. But then from an above angle, the change in perspective is phenomenal. Don't just take our word for it. Watch the lady demonstrate herself! What she is ...
