Child abuse increasing in Japan

In Japan, child abuse cases reached a record high in 2012.

Enjo-kōsai is "a form of child prostitution whereby participating girls sell their bodies in exchange for designer goods or money."

"In a 1998 survey by the Asian Women's Fund, researchers found that more than 20 percent of all high school girls engage in enjo-kōsai and over 90 percent of the girls interviewed attested to feeling uncomfortable with the exchange or purchase of sexual services for money.[4]"



"Teachers, monks, government officials, company executives, and others of high social status have been arrested for their involvement with enjo kōsai."[7]

Comfort girls.

The mayor of Osaka, Toru Hashimoto, says that a “comfort women” system was necessary to keep the soldiers happy.

The Japanese enslaved as many as 410,000 “comfort women” from Korea, China, and Southest Asia to serve as prostitutes and raise the spirits of the Japanese soldiers. Approximately three quarters of them died and most survivors were left infertile.
