As far as the school girl mini skirt thing…
Well maybe in Tokyo, buddy, but not all of Japan. :wink: There’s girls that wear the ankle-length ones like they’re supposed to.

Actually depends on School and Season.

Some of the Christian Schools (Spoil sports) go for the full length ones or knee length ones. But we are talking Tokyo summers here 37 Degrees and 90+ humidity.

I’m not sure where you’re getting the consentual age of 13 thing… much of Japan’s laws on that kind of thing are similar to the states. But it’s been a while since I’ve been there. :smiley:

Easy:
Age of Consent

Oman and Pakistan have no age of consent.

Eww, I think.

Hmm
That also says USA is 16.

I don’t know man, if an adult in Japan sleeps with a 13 year old girl I think it is also considered rape by most there. There’s been cases of it. I’m not sure I want to go by that internet article, but I’ll check around. :slight_smile: Could be wrong, but I’m almost certain Japan has similar age of consent things to us especially with things like soapland and pornography, etc.
If not, to me, that’s pretty sad.

This is actually interesting, thanks for the link.

Law for Punishing Acts Related to Child Prostitution and Child Pornography, and for Protecting Children.
This is a temporary translated version of the New Law adopted by the Japanese Diet, in April 1999 related to
Child Prostitution, Child Pornography and Sexual Abuse of Children committed by Japanese nationals abroad.

Article 1 - Objective
The objective of this Law is to protect the rights of children by prescribing punishment for acts
related to child prostitution and child pornography, and by establishing measures including the
giving of appropriate protection to children who have suffered physically and/or mentally from the
said acts, in light of the fact that sexual exploitation and sexual abuse of children seriously infringe

I. Ages for legal purposes
Article 2 - Definitions
For the purpose of this Law, a “child” means a person under the age of 18 years.

Age of majority
The Article 3 of the Japanese Civil Code states that the age of majority is twenty (20) years old.

Age of consent for sexual activity
The Article 177 of the Penal Code puts the age of consent for sexual actitvity at thirteen (13) years.

Age of consent for marriage
Articles 731 and 737 of the Civil Code provides that the age of consent for marriage is eighteen (18)
years for men, and sixteen (16) for women.

But when a minor wants to get married, he or she needs the consent of his or her parents.

II. Rape
‘Rape’, Art. 177 Penal Code

" A person who, through violence or intimidation, has sexual intercourse with a female person of
not less than thirteen (13) years of age commits the crime of rape and shall be punished with
imprisonment at forced labour for a limited term of not less than two years. The same shall apply
to a person who has sexual intercourse with a female person under thirteen (13) years of age. "

‘Death or injury resulting from rape’, Art. 181 Penal Code
" A person who commits a crime provided in Articles 176 to 179 and thereby kills or injures
another shall be punished with imprisonment at forced labour for life or for not less than three
years. "

III. Other forms of child sex abuse
‘Indecency through compulsion’, Art. 176 Penal Code
" A person who, through violence or intimidation, commits an indecent act upon a male or female
person of not less than thirteen (13) years of age shall be punished with imprisonment at forced
labour for not less than six months nor more than seven years. The same shall apply to a person

advantage of loss of consciousness or inability to resist, or by causing a loss of consciousness or
inability to resist, shall be punished in the same way as provided for in the preceding two
Articles. "
‘Attempts’, Art. 179 Penal Code
" Attempts of the crimes provided in the preceding three Articles shall be punished. "
‘Complaint’, Art. 180 Penal Code
" (1) The crimes provided in the preceding four Articles shall be prosecuted only on complaint.
(2)The provisions of the preceding paragraph shall not apply when the crimes mentioned in the
preceding four Articles are committed jointly by two or more persons who are on the scene of the
action. "

Article 34 of the Child Welfare Law
" Any person shall not do any of the following acts : …(6) act of inducing a minor to be engaged in
sexual activities … "
Inducing a minor who is less than eighteen (18) to be engaged in sexual activities is subject to
punishment under the Child Welfare Law. According to Japanese Court cases, " inducing a minor to
be engaged in sexual activities means an act of working on a minor to have intercourse or analogous
conducts ( including oral and anal sex) with him or her, or with someone else by exering influence on
the minor virually.

It looks like statiotory rape is 13 (though for some reason I could have sworn it was older)

The other stuff was what I was talking about (18-20)

You can find that here too if you know where to look.

It’s true though.

Let’s not turn this into a thread about the low points of Japan…the country has some good things too you know.

Ryu

27

Hi Ryu.

That Article is correct.

I think you are refering to the new Law that was passed last years that forbids
“Compensated Dating”," Dating Clubs" and similar practices under the age of 20.

All sex under the age of 20 has to be purely sex :smiley: with no compensation for favours provided.
Many Girls got their Gucci Handbags that way. :frowning:

Prior to that it was forbidden to PAY under 20’s for sex, but giving presents was allowed.

It was a loophole that was fixed and it also prevents “Child Pornography” from People under the age of 20 to be published or owned. Brought the law in line with overseas Child porno Laws.

Too many Teen Idols were kinda misused to make bucks.

The same Law now also punishes Japanese that go overseas to have sex with minors.
They fixed their act pretty well, but the 13yr old thingy is true.

Since than plenty of people got caught paying teens for Sex and convicted.
But like so many things in Japan, plenty of issues are not talked about openly.

And, yep, I see plenty of young teens visiting the “Love Hotels” around where I live.

Yep.

You used to be able to, same as Porn mags. Japanese put nearly everything into Vending machines.

Now you have to walk into a shop, choose a lady from a Catalog, buy the undies for her and pick them up 3 Days later.

Sick practice.
But Ryu is right, lets close the topic b4 we get the flood of immigrants.

29

Ok I’m being totally serious when I ask this. What’s a love hotel? I learned the Japanese word for it a long time ago in a book “raabu hoteru” or something, but I always figured it was just a ***** house. Is it? Or is it a place you can go with a chick to shack up? Or do you meet a chick there and pay her to do you? How does it work?

And what the hell would you do with used panties from a chick? Smell them all day? I guess that’s what the guys do in anime… then their noses start bleeding… hehe.

Iron

Thanks, Red_Fists,
Yeah the new law was more of what I was referring to that dealt with the child protection stuff, etc. (a great law in my opinion)

Anyway, cool little discussion anyway. I do think it’s a good idea to close it too. :wink:

Well I’m turning in for the night.
Oyasumi, guys.

Ryu

Iron, they’re places couples can go to, etc. You can also have girls do things for you, etc. I don’t really want to talk about it since I don’t like it. :wink: There’s better things to see in Japan.
The Japanese are also divided in some ways about the “morality” of the hotels. However little is really done about it. The people who don’t like it stay away from them.

Now let’s talk about happier things! :slight_smile:

Hi Iron.

Raabu-Hotel is the Japanese pronoucniaton ofr Love Hotel.

Japan as you know has very limited space available, often 3 generations living together.
So privacy is a bit of an issue,

Love Hotels are Hotels that are rented either on an 2 hourly basis, or for overnight stays after 23:00.
They have a Jacuzzi, Fridge, often Karaoke, naughty TV,etc.

And, yes, they are where you and your chick go to shack up.
Also often frequented by Parents of bigger Kids.
Yep, you need to bring your own Partner, none supplied.

Actually a very good idea as you get privacy, “protection” is supplied by the Hotel,etc.

Also it is done in a way that you never see any staff, and only the front desk see you.
Entrance and Exit usually are on opposite side of he Building.
Personally, I like the Idea and think more Countries should use them.

33

Hi Ryu.

Had your Veggies today??

34

Iron.

If you want any Info on Japan either pm or E-mail me.

35

No veggies today. Completely exhausted. :wink:

None supplied?? Are we talking about the same kinds of places?
There are “lovers hotels” where couples go, but there are also some places that girls will be doing some things for you too, costume play, etc.

:frowning: You know sometimes I think I am mostly at fault for my pet peeves considering I focus too much on what is not the “norm” you know?

I need some sleep.

Love Hotels are what I described.

The places you are talking about are either:
A.) Soaplands
B.) “Daddy” Establishments/Bars/Clubs.
C.) Massage Parlors.
And those are the not so freaked out sides of japanese Nigthlife. :smiley:
Those are normally found in the “Kabuki Cho’s” or “Pink Districts”, whereas Love Hotels are usually in either Business or Residential areas.

Love Hotels are 100% legal, as to the others can you say “Yakuza”.And watch out for the black Mercs with tinted Windows.

Seeya.

38

sounds kinky-.-.-

Yakuza eh? that’s not my idea of love cuddle

39

And the real twist is that Prostituion is illegal in Japan.

40

One thing I wanted to mention about Japanese Love Hotels.

The one reason why I like them, because it allows Teens to have their first sexual encounter in a proper setting.

Better than the backseat of a Car or behind a Bush, or backroom of a Club..

Plus, if they can afford to pay for a room, it shows some standard and commitment.

Just my 2 Yen worth, not much these days. :frowning:
