Devin Wood is in Tokyo as of last night, and it's been a blur of tourism, with a good amount of laughs in between. We spent most of our day in Akihabara, which I've already visited, and you can read about here. But we've also visited some of the raunchier spots in the area, and I'm sure a couple of you readers will get a few kicks from this. For your entertainment (and, I won't lie, ours as well,) here's a look into an adult store in Japan, hosted by Piercer Extaordinaire, Devin Wood, and Yours Truly.
Let's put the facts forward: Japan is obsessed with innocence. Whereas the western image of the ideal woman is the busty babe with luscious lips and that stereotypical Bond-Girl roguish charm, it's quite different here. In Japan, she is portrayed as being naive and pure. It should come as no surprise that the official age of consent is 13 (though state laws can thankfully override federal laws, effectively making it 17 in Tokyo.)
Sexuality is quite repressed here. All pornographic material is censored, and prostitution is illegal (though this gets circumvented commonly.) However, as per usual, the Japanese people are quite effective at finding creative solutions to everything, no matter how bizarre said solution would be, and so it's easy to find weird perversions. To the right, Devin demonstrates how one can procure used women's underwear from a vending machine! You also get a picture of the woman who selflessly donated her precious knickers.
I'm being sarcastic. It's funny, but quite sad. No worries, everyone, he's merely getting this to give as a souvenir gift for a friend. I hope they inspect his luggage at the airport and find it and share a giggle.
I hope this has been enjoyable.
Here's a picture of me doing my famous fighter-jet pose in front of a panda mascot guy. World-class, I know.
