Bad news if you are into “JK business”, the new style of enjo kosai (compensated dating) where you go on “dates” with schoolgirls that end in a sexual encounter. The days of casually walking into a JK business venue and getting an appointment with a teenager are possibly numbered. These services are often euphemistically called…

We’re almost two years late to this (hey, we were busy blogging other stuff!) but we stumbled upon this funny video of our favorite male AV star, Shimiken, trying out a special “double spiral” condom. The video is produced by G-Project, which is an adult toy brand and who made the new condom. It’s only…

In the age of social media, you are meant to tell the whole world what a great time you are having. Some people take that philosophy a little too far. And the results can go viral in a way you didn’t expect. Big-shot corporate types are pretty confident when it comes to picking up girls….

This busty 18-year-old Japanese schoolgirl has shared nude selfies of her beautiful body and its pale white skin (bihaku) with the world via Twitter. She really does have an impressive bust, which makes us suspect she’s not a schoolgirl like some people are saying. She’s also nicely curvy and has a great line of bras….

A journalist working on a BBC Three documentary about child sexual exploitation was held in police custody. The 29-year-old Stacey Dooley was held by police in Tokyo for two hours during the making of her documentary, Young Sex For Sale In Japan. “It [the doc] focuses on the fact they only made it illegal to…

Japan’s first strip show opened in January 1947 and we found some fantastic vintage advertising for it. Seventy years ago, the pioneering strip club event took place in Shinjuku at the Teitoza theater and was rather tame, not surprising given the attitude toward women at the time. It was a “gakubuchi show”, where woman would…

This story has been doing the rounds of the foreign press and we have our doubts about its authenticity, given the overseas media’s penchant for “wacky Japan” stories. But if it’s even just a bit true, it’s pretty incredible. After all, we all have to go some day. What better way than Death by Porn?…

To, er, celebrate International Women’s Day, Al Jazeera ran this long and detailed story about sexual assault in Japan, claiming “every girl was a victim” but now more schoolgirls are speaking out about groping on public transportation. Tamaka Ogawa was about 10 years old when she was sexually assaulted for the first time. It was…

Lots of women marched around the world to mark International Women’s Day on March 8th, including at least one group in Tokyo. But here is another protest by a different kind of feminist: sex workers. A group of sex workers (male and female) marched while wearing masks and carrying red umbrellas. This was part of…

It’s from late December 2013 but we just stumbled upon this stimulating article on The Tokyo Files about Yoshiwara. As regular readers will know, Yoshiwara was the licensed pleasure quarter in historical Tokyo (Edo). Today it doesn’t correspond to an official address (funny that!) but you can find it at Senzoku 4-chome in Taito-ku, which…
