Lmfao, as if rape and sexual assault don’t happen literally everywhere on earth there are men.

But hey, if you single out Japan, that means you can avoid acknowledging the misogyny in your own country/culture right? What a neat and not at all obvious trick that is…

Calls out someone for singleing out a group then proceeds to single out a larger group.

Because it’s just a male thing, right?

In the commotion, she said, it was a woman who grabbed her breasts harder than any of the others involved.

Assholes are assholes, it’s not limited to one sex.

Lack of effort to stop sexual assault in Japan is well documented. Victim blaming is common. This is a systemic problem, and if you didn’t know, then now you do.

This, I agree with.

Lack of effort to stop sexual assault in Japan is well documented.

For this, I’d like to see the documentation you cite.

Yes, it’s like that in much of the world. Australian laws until recently silenced SA survivors for example as I linked down below. It’s good that you’re learning about it and engaging with it. Rape culture must be stopped world over.

I mean, I read this and went, “Goddammit, Osaka,” when I read where this takes place, and I live in Osaka.

Ahhh, that sucks to hear. It seemed like such a nice place while there, but I guess that’s benefits of tourism. All of the cool parts, not around long enough for the bad :(

Australia doesn’t have a well known problem with groping women on public transit as far as I’m aware.

I specifically mentioned Australia due to its rampant rape culture. Just because you’re not aware of it doesn’t mean it’s not happening.
