Japan’s crusade against rampant street prostitution

1. This article is just right wing Catholic bullshit from a ‘news’ company that has a low confidence rating across every aggregate checker I’ve looked at.

   Some gems of the article include:

   “The Kabukicho nightlife district in Tokyo is one place where an increasing number of women are selling their bodies. A majority of these women are in need of paying off debts accumulated at clubs offering entertainment with male companions known as “hosts.”

   Really, buddy? Over 50% of prostitutes are only doing it because they’re in debt to host clubs? What a wildly specific claim to make. I’m sure there are some, but the majority? Get the fuck outta here.

2. Kabukicho is the heart of the “corporate yakuza”.

   The police and prefecture will never do anything, they pay good taxes!
