Waiwai articles mighr have been exaggerated but the underlying essense of Japanese sexual life and their serious problems is true. Of course one should not generalized but I have never seen in my life so many people with serious sexual issues, where campus and company rape is so common, where school prostitution is everywhere, where bosses use company money to have sex with OLs. I specially know cases from Mitsubishi corporation, government officials, NHK and JDF. So corrupted and perverted that these people make look the Yakuza like innocent young rebel boys, other bunch of perverts but they are at least more fun and more honest. And if one looks for wild sex, Japan is the place to go, just racist Japanese guys like the author don't want to get competition and the open secret that Japanese women are sex slaves.

I loved Wai Wai, it was larger than life and filled with gossip and naughty bits which raised eyebrows. About it's accuracy, I won't be able to say for sure until I've visited Japan for myself. Rest assured, I'm not one of those people who goes any where for sex, since I'm waiting for marriage, so my visit would be for the initial cultural shock which would surely derail this Bahamian's expectations.Expletive:BMPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03744597820895492464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675276272361534045.post-64570058740691526802008-08-09T21:55:00.000-05:002008-08-09T21:55:00.000-05:00You know most of the world see's this whole strutt...You know most of the world see's this whole strutting about and saying "Stay away from our women." as like a comedy.<BR/>Only its a tragic one.<BR/><BR/>I have seen the reaction on Japanese gentlemen when I have put an arm around a Japanese lady.

Any of the type of content found on Waiwai I can find at my local Lawsons, Circle K or other convenience store anywhere in Japan. Do I see you protesting against those Japanese language publications? And does anyone really take them seriously? Just like Alien adbuction and crop circle stories, they are a bit of a laugh, and no more. As to your assertion that "foreign men come to Japan to find sex", I have never heard or or seen a sex tourist in Japan, despite being here for over 20 years. Perhaps you could introduce me to one? You should take a trip to Bangkok, Manila or Amsterdam and see how many Japanese men are on the sex tour! I would bet that for every foreign sex tourist to Japan there would be 10,000 Japanese sex tourists to the above mentioned cities. Finally, have you not heard of freedom of the press? Surely this is much, much more important than a few outrageous articles about the supposed sexual proclivities of Japanese men and women.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02001225839643818782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675276272361534045.post-86247100771659552282008-07-11T13:13:00.000-05:002008-07-11T13:13:00.000-05:00I think the thing that really bugs many people abo...I think the thing that really bugs many people about this is that hte magazine took the stance of "punishment" against writers or editors of this content. As if Mainichi had no idea what was being published on their own website. The proper thing to do would have simply apologized and moved on. Since they are no longer publishing WaitWai then it probably stands to reason that they will no longer employ the writer of the column.<BR/>To put it simply if you hire me to do a job, and I do it for several years with no complaints I don't expect to suddenly be punished as if I were being intentionally malicious. There is simply no logic behind this. The newspaper bears 100% responsibility for the content they publish period.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01645894539874485078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675276272361534045.post-40486238928026067002008-07-11T10:37:00.000-05:002008-07-11T10:37:00.000-05:00Thanks for picking the one of the hottest topic in...Thanks for picking the one of the hottest topic in Japan.<BR/><BR/>The house wives BBS seems to be working so good to accusing Mainichi's bad behaviour.

Hope this is just my misunderstanding.<BR/><BR/>We strongly believe most foreigners are smart enough as Kovert not to trust Wai-wai's dreadful stories. However, as these are the articles of one of the most famous Japanese national newspaper, some may believe them are true. We know it would be too difficult to correct such misunderstanding, and it would be almost impossible to delete all articles spread into the world. Mainichi must be aware of the meaning of web communication.<BR/><BR/>We don't deny that Mainichi has freedom of speech. But please mind that these articles were quoted from other gossip magazines. The author chose whatever he thought interesting, did not confirm if the contents were true, added his view/comments, in some case twisted the original meaning, then announced them to worldwide under the name of 'Mainichi'. Can this be called editing? Would 'The Guardian' or 'The Times' quote 'The Sun' to let the people living outside of UK know the sex life of people? <BR/><BR/>We are furious, because Mainichi took no responsibility for whatever they announced to the world. Punishing an author? Giving 3 months holidays, that's all. Almost all his bosses promoted to President and VP as of July. What Mainichi must do is to correct wrong articles and show sincere apology. If Mainichi thinks they are a kind of untrustful newspaper that only foolish readers can believe the contents, say so.<BR/><BR/>Attracting readers is quite important especially in web, but that does not mean you can do anything. Furthermore, Mainichi was believed as a trustful paper.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01578833654131838529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675276272361534045.post-56264449771228836502008-07-09T12:12:00.000-05:002008-07-09T12:12:00.000-05:00Could you please post some links to news stories o...Could you please post some links to news stories or evidence that people traveled to Japan thinking they could engage in outlandish sexual activities?<BR/>Although many of the stories published were about bizarre sexual practices. They were all pretty obviously meant to be comedic in nature.<BR/>I find it hard to believe anyone not clever enough to understand these articles were not based on true events would have the means to travel to Japan at all.<BR/>I'm not going to speak to the quality of the stories published on Wai Wai but I strongly believe in freedom of speech and I thought it was a shame that the newspaper decided to make a huge deal of this issue and "punish" the authors as they put it. The newspaper certainly has a right to publish what they choose but bowing to the will of a small group of right wingers is a little depressing._koverthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06145554485375961256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675276272361534045.post-58858869121652052652008-07-09T10:53:00.000-05:002008-07-09T10:53:00.000-05:00I agree that non-Japanese who read these stories g...I agree that non-Japanese who read these stories got the wrong idea, but your assertion that said wrong idea was essentially "sex is free in Japan, get me my plane ticket" is pretty off-target. The WaiWai stories, while primarily raunchy, touched on any number of bizarre topics. The wrong idea was a more generalized "those nutty Japanese get up to all manner of craziness, sexual and otherwise." The Ni-chaneru bloggers seem to have distorted this into "foreigners now think Japanese women are easy, and they're attacking our shores as a direct result of these WaiWai articles."<BR/>This second idea, which you seem to be taking as gospel, is a complete red herring offered up by the Ni-chaneru anti-WaiWai crowd.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135480356006294664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675276272361534045.post-49938911468266629202008-07-08T09:09:00.000-05:002008-07-08T09:09:00.000-05:00I thank for having taken up this problem.
