Japanese Underage Girls Modeling? Options

[Tung]

For the past couple of years, the popularity of females as young as the age of 7 years old have been doing modeling called gravure. These types of models are called U-15. U-15 is short for "under 15", and is used when talking about junior idols. Most junior idols are called this until they reach the age of 16. If you go to Japan nowadays, you can find many shops solely selling only U-15 products such as magazine and DVDS. These girls are exposed in very revealing bikini, and they wear T-backs. T-backs are more revealing than thongs, and that's saying alot. I find it really disturbing that the U-15 industry is more popular than regular Japanese porno. Here's a link to show you what I am talking about. It's absoultely shocking.

There's men over 30 years old commening on the videos about how sexy they look, and wished they were naked. This is a 30 year old wanting to see a 12 year old naked? Are you kidding me? Do you think this is right or wrong?

Well, as much I damn well agree with you, there is some speculation to be said about celebrities like Nicole Richie who starve themselves constantly to look what you define as "skinny."

Also, Japan's different, thats just the way it is. Their R rated movies are 16 and above, not 17. Age is subjective. For instance, when a 15 year old female gets kidnapped, we think of them as ignorant babies who couldn't think for themselves. However, when a 15 teenager accidently kills his neighbor trying to do a wrestling move, all of sudden we think hes an adult. Yeah, that was a rip off of Dave Chappelle, but just clearing my point.

I don't think Richie really wanted to look like a skeleton. As for how speculations go, many thought she had an eating disorder, and I don't disagree with them. She's gained some weight since then, so again, I don't think she starved herself to achieve my defined "skinny" look.

While I see the supposed subjectivity in age, wouldn't the lack of an objective view on age be potentially dangerous for young girls?

I know Japan has statutory rape laws. Do you know what is the age of consent for this law though? I assume from the trend of ages you've presented, it'll be 16? Can you confirm?

As for Chappelle, humans tend to sympathize with the victim rather than the aggressor. I don't agree that a person would call a victim of a kidnapping an ignorant baby (unless he/she is a young child), do you have an example of someone doing this? It may be on case by case basis.

The accidental killing of another person committed by a young boy might be viewed as one adult hurting another, but thanks to our justice system, the young boy won't be tried as an adult. Involuntary manslaughter will give the boy a chance. People will think what they want, but the law is there to protect people, preserve justice (yadi yadi). People who'll mouth off the boy for the accidental killing probably never put any thought into their condemnation and need to brush up on their basic laws.

Chappelle is right on superficial level, but I hope you'll agree that most of us are capable of deeper genuine thought.

I really do hope thats true, but most might be pushing it.
