7,175 men grope porn stars’ breasts for AIDS awareness
December 8, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
The annual AIDS awareness charity event 24-Hour TV: Eroticism Saves the Earth was held over the weekend, complete with its televised antics and its now frankly traditional Shinjuku porn star breast groping event. All in a good cause, we'll have you know!
Leading up to the event there was even an online fund-raising campaign. Love is Patience challenged you not to look at hot Japanese girls while they did "sexy" stuff. The longer you held out, the more money raised for charity.
This year's event at the Shinjuku venue attracted 7,175 people -- the highest ever and around 1,000 more than ...
Can you not look at Japanese porn stars’ breasts for charity?
November 28, 2015
/ Tadashi Anahori
Breasts and charity often go together in Japan, as we have seen from past stunts where you can get a grope of some porn star breasts if you donate to a good cause.
Now Japanese adult satellite channel SKY PerfecTV! is holding the 24-Hour TV: Eroticism Saves the Earth (ERO24TV) again is promoting an AIDS awareness charity.
And its methodology is novel, if flawed. Apparently the longer you can keep your eyes closed and not give in to temptation to look at the lovely ladies on display they will donate your money.
Love is Patience is the name of the challenge, available ...
Syphilis cases rise again in Japan, especially among women

Once again we have bad news about Japan and sexually transmitted diseases.
Syphilis cases have jumped yet again, this time increasing by over 2,000 in less than a year.
The number of cases logged between January 1st and October 28th is 2,037 -- already more than 2014's record 1,617.
1,463 of the cases were male, while 574 were female.
There has been a 2.1 increase in the number of women contracting syphilis through heterosexual contact.
The increase especially affected women aged between 15 and 35, and between 20 and 24. Ladies, protect yourselves!
Japan is a land ...
Japan creates Condom Cookbook: Contraceptives become cooking utensils to promote safe sex
November 3, 2014
/ Tadashi Anahori
Japanese guys, like their counterparts in porn, rarely use condoms -- which is a nightmare for condom makers and for health services, since it also means STDs are rampant.
Condom makers call on unusual tactics to promote their innovative contraceptives, and this also extends to those trying to promote safe sex.
There is a considerable irony that Japan's condom industry is large -- producing up to 30% of the world's rubbers -- but local usage is possibly ranked in the bottom three in the world.
To improve this state of affairs, Kyosuke Kagami and Opanpon came up with a very ...

There you have it. Proof at last that porn is good for the world.
As reported a few days ago, this weekend saw the 24-Hour TV: Eroticism Saves the Earth event in Kabukicho, part of which was a breast squeeze-a-thon, where nine hot Japanese porn stars allowed their chests to be groped by random men... all for a good cause, honest!
Well, these gals helped raised ¥5 million (around $50,000) for a charitable foundation fighting AIDS in Japan!
The girls had 6,000 pairs of hands on their assets, groping for a grand total of over 15 hours spread over Saturday and Sunday.
Apparently ...
(Porn) Actors of the World (Japan), Unite! Male performers create industry association
February 5, 2014
/ Tadashi Anahori
It's not easy being a Japanese male porn start.
They are literally just a handful of bonefide stars (and thousands of anonymous performers) in an industry dominated by the girls. To make ends meet they might perform in up to six films a week!
With men so dispensable, it's time to stop screwing around, as they say.
On April 1st, the Japan Porn Actors Association (JPAA) will come into existence. But this is no April's Fool Day stunt.
Inspired by the problems with HIV and STDs that paralyzed the American porn industry last year, the JPAA has been created by veteran actor Genji ...
An interview with JAV porn star Sora Aoi
September 6, 2010
/ Megumi
Are you one of the hundreds of thousands of Sora Aoi fans?
We spotted an interesting interview with porn star Sora Aoi on CNNgo.
One of the many nuggets in the article is this gem:
AV girls never marry anyone within the industry out of convention, again, entirely different to the regular entertainment business in Japan where idols, actresses and singers regularly marry directors, managers and stylists.
Does that mean there is hope for normal guys out there?!
Sora talks about her early ambitions to be a school teacher, her relationships with men, and her new activities as an ...
