This Thursday at 12pm EDT, Simon Ostrovsky and Jake Adelstein will join 'On The Line' to discuss this story. Ask your questions on Twitter @VICENews with #OnTheLine: http://bit.ly/1Sgvvn2 Japan’s obsession with cutesy culture has taken a dark turn, with schoolgirls now offering themselves for “walking dates” with adult men. Last year the US State Department, in its annual report on human trafficking, flagged so-called joshi-kosei osanpo dates (that’s Japanese for “high school walking”) as fronts for commercial sex run by sophisticated criminal networks. In our exclusive investigation, VICE News host Simon Ostrovsky will bring you to one of Tokyo’s busiest neighborhoods, where girls solicit clients in their school uniforms, to a concert performed by a band of schoolgirls attended by adult men, and into a café, where teenage girls are available to hire by the hour. But the true revelations come behind closed doors, when schoolgirls involved in the rent-a-date industry reveal how they’ve been coerced into prostitution.

JAPANESE WOMEN IN JAPAN HAVE NO SIGNIFICANT VALUE... MEN DON'T RESPECT WOMEN THERE

This documentary has always been pretty interesting to me because of how much divide there is between eastern and western norms.
On one hand this is an arguably "darker" side of Japan, but it can also seem unremarkable and mundane to those who have become used to it.
I wonder if there's anything we normalize in the west that would seem this immoral in the east. -
That girl band reminds me of Muse from Love Live
-
Japan has a creepy sex culture which is dangerous especially for young girls. I think it is more dangerous since they sell these culture so well that it's spreading all over the world and it has settled to some sort of a cult.

Child Prostitution = bad
Human Trafficking = bad
Brainwashing innocent girls = bad
Paying money to meet and touch a girl you admire (with her consent) = not that bad, weird
Prostitution isn't as bad as ppl make it out to be, i mean there have been plenty of sexually frustrated guys that kill themselves and/or others when it could probably have been prevented with the help of a lovely prostitute. Don't shame Japan's fetishes, thatd be retarded if you considered the US in the same matter. This shouldnt be what this documentary focuses on, it should instead focus on the more serious issues of human trafficking and child prostitution; it blows my mind that people try so hard to either avert their eyes or just plain ignore the most obvious issues. -
To trade money just for temporary company, is not even worth it, unless you're lucky enough to have the girl lured away from whoever was controlling her, and help her to break free, which I doubt will be possible.

3:06 looked like that little place the idols sing in, in osomatsu-san
-
It is really no wonder that Japan is into really weird shit. Schoolgirls, Tentacles, gore, incest etc. Have you seen their porn? They blur out everything
-

Even the subtitles are biased and presumptuous. And they don't even translate Japanese into English, they just write [inaudible].
Really prying for a story here; "This is a really uncomfortable experience." C'mon dude, you could say that about anything. Not saying the culture is or isn't misogynist, but this story literally goes nowhere. So prostitution is legal, it also is in Australia, and New Zealand and France, The Netherlands, Canada, Greece, Denmark and 23 other FIRST world countries. I'm a woman and i think this piece is a pile of garbage!
Taylor Swift, Lindsay Lohan, Ariana Grande, and a hell of a lot of girls on Disney and Nick were all sexualised as teenagers; so come on, mountain out of a mole hill much?
