Japanese lesbian couple to ‘wed’ in all 26 countries with marriage equality

A Japanese lesbian couple is planning to visit all 26 countries where same-sex marriage is legal to protest their nation’s lack of marriage equality.
University students Misato Kawasaki, 21, and Mayu Otaki, 22, clarified in a statement to PinkNews that they are not planning to actually get married 26 times, but simply take wedding photos in each destination.
“This project is not about our wedding but revealing a social issue by taking a wedding photos and share them on a instagram,” they said.
The couple hope that the photos, published on their blog and social media channels along with other content from the six-month trip, will convince the public that same-sex couples should be allowed to marry in Japan.
Kawasaki, who studies alongside Otaki at Utsunomiya University’s Faculty of International Studies, told Japanese newspaper The Asahi Shimbun she wanted “to show through our wedding photos that being lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) is normal so that those who are troubled by their sexual status can harbour hope.”
Several months after they started dating in late 2017, Kawasaki proposed to Otaki, asking her: “Will you stay with me forever?”
She said that she had wanted to pose the classic question, asking her partner: “Will you marry me?”
But despite queer unions being recognised in some areas of the country, there is no recognition of same-sex marriage on a national level in Japan, meaning that she felt unable to ask Otaki to marry her.
The lesbian couple aren’t the only LGBT+ people campaigning for the country to recognise marriage equality. 10 LGBT+ couples plan on filing a lawsuit against the Japanese government in February in a bid for recognition.
Kawasaki and Otaki, who want to establish a wedding company in Japan for same-sex partners when they get back, are crowdfunding to afford their tour.
They will land in the UK in March before travelling through Europe, Africa, North America and South America.
They estimate that just the transport and accommodation costs alone will cost them 4.14 million yen (£30,000), and are trying to raise a million yen (£7,300) to help subsidise their journey.
So far, they’ve raised around a third of the total.
The women said they were both aware of their sexualities during high school.
But Kawasaki revealed that she steered clear of getting romantically involved with girls at school because she thought that would mean she was “abnormal.”
Celebs you didn’t know have an LGBT sibling
She only felt comfortable enough to come out as a lesbian after she started studying at university.
Like her partner, Otaki knew she was attracted to other girls when she was in school. She realised she was pansexual and came out after she starting dating Kawasaki.
This campaign, they said, was intended to make life easier for other queer people and couples struggling with their identities.
With this in mind, the pair plans to interview other Japanese same-sex partners, as well as government officials in the countries they visit, so that they can put together a project on their return which will make the case for marriage equality.
This article was updated to clarify that the couple will not marry in 26 countries as originally reported in the Asahi Shimbun, but will take part in wedding photoshoots instead.

This article is about the wooden staff used in Japanese martial arts. For the unit of area derived from the size of a tatami mat, see Tatami. For other uses, see Jo (disambiguation).
A jō (杖:じょう) is an approximately 1.27-metre (4.2 ft) wooden staff, used in some Japanese martial arts. The martial art of wielding the jō is called jōjutsu or jōdō. Also, aiki-jō is a set of techniques in aikido which uses the jō to illustrate aikido's principles with a weapon. The jō staff is shorter than the bō. Today, the jō is still used by some Japanese police forces.
The techniques for jō were reportedly invented by Musō Gonnosuke Katsuyoshi (夢想 權之助 勝吉, fl. c.1605, date of death unknown) after he was defeated by the famous swordsman, Miyamoto Musashi (宮本 武蔵, 1584–1645). They fought each other in a duel sometime between 1608 and 1611, according to Kenji Tokitsu. The record mentioning this duel, the Nitenki, recounts:
When Musashi was in Edo, he met an adept named Musō Gonnosuke, who asked to fight him. Gonnosuke used a wooden sword. Musashi was in the process of making a small Bo; he picked up a piece of firewood. Gonnosuke attacked him without even bowing, but he received a blow from Musashi that made him fall down. He was impressed and left.
A different text, the Kaijo Monogatari (dated to 1666) differs considerably from the Nitenki version. In it, Gonnosuke is a boastful and brash warrior who duels Musashi intending to see how Musashi compares with Musashi's father in swordsmanship. The fight occurs in Akashi, not Edo, and Gonnosuke wields a staff four shaku in length and reinforced with steel rings. After his defeat, he then went to Mount Hōman-zan in Chikuzen (near Fukuoka), where he practiced considerably, changing his preferred weapon to four shaku and two sun in length - 1.27 meter as compared to 1.21 meter. This school was called the Shintō Musō-ryū because of Gonnosuke's previous training under Sakurai Osuminokami Yoshikatsu of the Shintō-ryū.[citation needed]
The school he founded to transmit his techniques has some old records which claims that Gonnosuke, struck by his defeat, went into solitary meditation until he received divine inspiration in a dream; he then invented techniques to fight against Musashi's two swords using only a stick, and defeated Musashi on their next encounter. Assuming the records are accurate and genuine, this would be the only time Musashi was defeated,[1] as the vast majority of documentation states that Musashi was never defeated.
Several traditional Japanese koryū ("old schools" of martial arts) used the jō like a sword. The added length of the jō was meant to give it an advantage over the sword. Further, its wood construction allowed a fighter to improvise a jō quickly from a tree, branch, or other pole.
