At times the level of innovation among the hardcore perverts in Japan can be truly amazing.
A recent investigative report in the weekly magazine Aera reveals that young high school girls are picking up some extra spending money by selling their saliva.
According to the story, the reporter when to a shop where you can purchase the underwear (8,000 yen), urine (11,000 yen), or saliva (12,000 yen) of the girl of your choice.
[I was] led to a one-way mirror, behind which I see six girls in a room, watching TV. They are talking loudly and laughing.
I indicate my choice–a relatively quiet girl with black hair. She is dressed in a school uniform consisting of a pink blouse with a ribbon tie and a plaid skirt.
I am led into a small room, about the size of one tatami mat. A moment later a door opens and the girl appears. She says hello and sits down.
In her hands she holds a bottle about 5 centimeters tall. Into this she spits and spits repeatedly, her cheeks swelling and deflating, swelling and deflating. It takes her 10 minutes to fill the bottle. Throughout, she is the very model of detached aloofness, her gaze distant, her expression blank.
“Thank you,” she says, politely but indifferently, as she gets up to leave.
Evidently, there are a number of such establishments to cater to the needs of men of all ages. Such transactions were made illegal by last year by a Tokyo ban on the trafficking of the underwear, saliva, or urine of girl who is under the age of 18.
I just can’t see wanting any of those items from a girl.(or woman) Maybe some weird fetish about used underware, but saliva and urine? Does the guy watch her urinate? ICK!

Make that perverts anywhere. Evrythig from motion pictures to the internet has been fueled by perverts first, artists second, though sometimes both at the same time since most artists are perverts.
I know of one place in Ikebukuro where the cubicle the guy sits in has a hole in the ceiling which is the bottom of a toilet. I am sure a reputable establishmet such as that has a no-gaijin policy, of course.
I would think that, rather than pass new laws that cover every possible perversion that doesn’t involve actual sex (an endless task), they might ask the parents why they don’t get suspicious when their daughters bring home 200,000 yen handbags.
October 11th, 2005 at 8:42 amSadly, I don’t think the parents would actually care if their daughters start bringing home expensive items. They’d probably just rely on the school to do their disciplinary work for them.

October 11th, 2005 at 1:35 pmPeople in ancient Greece used to purchase vials of saliva from champion Olympic athletes.
A few years ago, someone paid a not inconsiderable sum of money for the used chewing gum of baseball player Luis Gonzalez.
How is this any different?
Ultimately, this is not a Japan story. This is a human story.

In Japan, Enjo kosai means sex or quasi-sex with generally middle-aged men in return for cash handouts. If a girl accompanies a man to a restaurant or a karaoke box, she gets 5,000 yen to 10,000 yen an hour. If…
October 11th, 2005 at 4:46 pmNuttin new here. perverts is as perverts are. the world over. if the girls can get cash from stupid men, more power to them. this just shows how stupid men are, as a species. girls are the lucky ones.
better than this: let’s go one step further here and try to imagine the next new perversion in Japan:

October 11th, 2005 at 6:10 pmThere was nothing raunchy about it all, sir.
October 11th, 2005 at 6:26 pm“She was 19″
That puts her well past enjo kosai age, and probably into seasoned professional. Lucky for these girls the foreigners are still happy to take the old ones.
October 11th, 2005 at 8:07 pm“They’d probably just rely on the school to do their disciplinary work for them. ”
That could be a conflict of interest, as the patrons are very often their own school teachers. And if it comes out, everybody is eager to hush it up and save embarrassment.
October 11th, 2005 at 8:11 pm“Lucky for these girls the foreigners are still happy to take the old ones.”
Most gaijin (and I am one of them) aren’t able to tell how old a Japanese girl is. I’ve seen 18 year old girls who look like they’re maybe 12 and 12 year olds who look like they could be 18. So the guy goes in thinking the girl is like 16 but in reality she’s 20, and he’ll never know.
And add me to the list of people who find this kind of thing really disturbing and yes, disgusting.
October 12th, 2005 at 5:30 amI have seen gross things and this includes joke video’s in forums about mutulation… It’s nasty!
Although people buying urine, saliva, and used underwear is yet another low -__-
October 12th, 2005 at 2:47 pmI’ve been to both Korea and China and I think Japan is by far the most perverted country in Asia. This is just completely wack!
