Sex, Schoolgirls, and the Japanese Pop Culture Empire
For the past three months, I have had the pleasure and honor of volunteering at a Tokyo-based NGO called Lighthouse: Center for Human Trafficking Victims, where I have been primarily assisting with their public relations and advocacy work. Founded by Shihoko Fujiwara, who has been a powerful advocate for human trafficking survivors in Japan and abroad, Lighthouse was originally designed to assist migrant survivors of forced labor. But they have moved on to focus on an issue closer to everyday Japanese life.

Walk down the main avenue in Akihabara, the mecca of Japanese pop culture in Tokyo, on any weeknight and you will see dozens upon dozens of young girls, dressed in their infamous "sailor-suit" schoolgirl uniforms, asking whether you are interested to, for a fee, have a chat with them, or take them around town for a walk. A compensated date, or enjo kosai , between a minor and her male client may end with a night of child prostitution. Walk across the scramble crossing in Shibuya, a busy commercial district for young people, and you may be accosted to join a model photo shoot. That photo shoot may become a filming session for a pornography video.
In Japan, it is normal for high school and college-aged students to work part-time jobs to earn money on the side. I myself recently got a job working at a convenience store on campus. When marketed as an easy, high-prestige, and high-paying job, modeling or compensated dating appeal to youth who live in a culture of consumerism and/or grow up in relative poverty. Shame, embarrassment, and the threat of legal action from the companies can coerce these survivors of child prostitution and pornography into silence. Each week, Lighthouse receives calls from these survivors, and it provides confidential counseling and assistance over the phone, through text messaging, and in person.
What I found most tragic was the complacency that stakeholders in Japanese pop culture have towards the widespread sexual commodification and objectification of young children. Most bookstores and convenience stores have a wide selection of pornography magazines or the euphemistically-named shashinshu , photo books of sexually objectified singers, actors, and "idols" that any customer can just flip open and read. Most weekly newsmagazines also contain a few pages of porn.
When a city in Osaka Prefecture made an agreement with a major convenience store chain to cover up pornography magazines in plain paper packaging, publishing industry associations responded in a high-profile statement objecting to the agreement on freedom of speech grounds. Travel guides to Japan now highlight Tokyo’s maid cafés, where young female waitresses dress up and treat their "husband" customers like royalty, and merchandise stores, where you can purchase full-size body pillows complete with prints of your favorite schoolgirl-aged anime character, as must-see attractions for foreign visitors. When the Japanese government finally banned child pornography in 2014, anime and manga were not included because they were not "real" depictions of children.
While these other industries do not necessarily have a direct connection to child pornography and prostitution in Japan, in my personal opinion, they do engender a social tolerance and norm that sexual commercial activity involving children is acceptable. Or perhaps, from a foreign perspective, this is something that is inevitable and exotic, a phenomenon that will only happen in Japan because it’s Japan. But, of course, it’s not: all countries share issues of child poverty and helping youth get back on track, especially in Hong Kong, South Korea, and Taiwan where compensated dating is spreading, and child prostitution and pornography are unacceptable anywhere in the world.
So for those who are wondering whether to step into a Japanese maid café, or to purchase that large print of an illustrated schoolgirl with her skirt flapping in the wind, think twice on whether you want to financially contribute to this social tolerance on the sexual commodification and objectification of children. And for those who are looking to study abroad in Tokyo, I would recommend to anyone who would like to volunteer even just a little bit of their time to Lighthouse, who stand with a group of other NGOs on the front lines of changing this devastating norm in Japanese society.

Japanese teen in swimming pool fattened, then turned into eel & barbecued in failed Japanese ad to promote fish.
26/09/2016 AFP News agency TOKYO - A controversial online ad featuring a swimsuit clad teenage girl who turns into an eel was pulled Monday after Japanese internet users complained it was sexist .
CONTROVERSIAL VIDEO The bizarre two-minute spot begins with a teenage girl in a black one-piece swimsuit swimming in a pool .
Gentle piano music is playing. In one scene she asks a man to feed her and then eats by the side of the pool . Apparently, she is being fattened up for some unstated reason . She has problems holding a sticky bottle of water or maybe it is her skin that is becoming sticky . In another scene , the girl is seen poolside exercising with a hula hoop. Then the TV commercial takes a bizarre twist . After an apparently long period of time has passed, the girl dives into the pool and turns into an eel . She says goodbye and swims away. The male narrator tells us, "I fed her delicious food until she was full and allowed her to get plenty of sleep." Next, the eel is seen being cooked in a barbecue . The narrator tells the viewers , "We take great care when farming our eels ." Bucolic images of southern Japan are intermixed with what is apparently a sort of eery eel farming Japanese fairy tale.
