Did he use his naughty tentacles?

ZAZ: The opposition has been demanding that Defense Minister Yasuo Ichikawa be fired after he made a series of gaffes, including a remark that he did not know details about the 1995 rape of a schoolgirl by three U.S. servicemen on the southwestern island of Okinawa.

The same incident got an American admiral in trouble when he said sailors should hire prostitutes instead of raping girls.

I never understood why he got in trouble for that. It sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

It was a sexual orgy of rape

FTA
Ichikawa further outraged the public in trying to apologize for his comment and mistakenly using the Japanese word for "sexual orgy" instead of "rape." He later said he had meant to say "violence," which sounds like the word for "sexual orgy."

This right here explains a lot about Japanese porn.

Is it me or does this guy sound like Japan's Joe Biden?

" He later said he had meant to say "violence," which sounds like the word for "sexual orgy."

Ah, those funny Japanese...

Jorie Froster?

She no get rape, she get sexual orgy!

That's a lot of political gaffes. And here I thought the Japanese were extremely sensitive to rituals and customs and being very attentive to showing respect to other people.

Supplies sex!

To be fair, there's been a few US servicemen Japanese schoolgirl rape incidents. It's difficult to keep up with the details.

Because this is America, and Americans only fark their wives in the missionary position for the express purpose of procreation.

so he said CHING instead of CHANG?

At least according to old Frothy.

WHAR PICS OF ASSORTED ASIAN WOMEN! WHAR!?!?

When your defence minister admits he doesn't know a lot about defence, it's time to panic.

Having recently been in Japan and seen what some of the school girls are wearing, and not wearing, I can see where cultural differences can lead to tragic endings.

Americans in general, males in particular, are far more aggressive socially than the Japanese. Yes that is a generalization.

Add in skimpy clothing, (see anime), alcohol, differences in response to incorrect or rude behavior, and dumb GI's, yeah. sparks in the gas station.

But, a cabinet level or near cabinet level official should be politically smart enough to be more careful about what he says.

Erm... anyone else see the part where, as Defense Minister, he claimed to be "no expert on Defense?"

/ Joe Biden? Fark. This guy is a regular Dan Quayle.

BarbadoSlim: WHAR PICS OF ASSORTED ASIAN WOMEN! WHAR!?!?

Always happy to oblige, my friend.

Come to America, minister. I'm sure the GOP can use your services.

I see he failed to say lape twice.

WAPE!

I never understood why he got in trouble for that. It sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

When I was stationed in Okinawa, most of the prostitutes were trafficked girls from the Phillipines and Korea as young as 15 and 16. I didn't realize it at the time, and so I agreed with the Admiral as well. To be honest, sex was readily available to servicemembers, if they wanted to pay. Depending on where they were stationed on the island, an entire district was right outside their gates at Hanson.

I don't know what the regulations were back then, but now it is against the UCMJ to engage a prostitute because the majority of them are basically sex slaves. Either way you go with this one, there would have been a victim.

The admiral either genuinely thought or made it seem like paying for sex with a willing adult is equivalent to raping a 12 year old. As if the servicemen in question had a brain fart and raped a child instead of pooling together a thousand bucks to run a train on a hooker.

We shouldn't Rashomon to judgement like this.

So if you can't fark a prostitute and you can't fark your fellow service members who the hell are you supposed to fark?

Defense minister is giant squid? Interesting.

Make sure your "safeword" doesn't sound like violence, rape or peg me with that shampoo bottle.

Oh, you can fark your fellow service members. A lot of us ladies stationed there were generous with our favors, or maybe that was just me...

They can still get sex because a lot of the local girls were pretty enthusiastic, with the obvious exception being underaged school girls. I think the thing that upset me the most is that this was completely premeditated on the part of the marines. They rented a van and had a rape kit at the ready. As much as I disgree with "local justice" I wish they had turned these guys over to the Okinawans to do their time.

Bob Crane: What is that on my ass?

Bob Crane: Your fingers are up my cheeks. What you doing in there?

Bob Crane: So you can just touch my ass?
John Carpenter: I thought you liked it. - I thought it was her! God! What's the difference?
Bob Crane: The difference? You got your fingers up my asshole!

I did not know that and thanks for clearing that up. I stand corrected.

Back in the old days, before the Westernization of Japan, the Bushi (military class) used to constantly poke fun of the effeminate, elaborately made-up courtiers and noblemen attached to the Imperial Court in Kyoto, and their effeminate, unmanly emotional love affairs with, of all things, women.

Jon iz teh kewl: so he said CHING instead of CHANG?

That's culturally insensitive. You're confusing the Japanese with the Chinese.

LeroyBourne: Make sure your "safeword" doesn't sound like violence, rape or peg me with that shampoo bottle.

Defense minister "well, 'rape' wasn't the safeword I gave her- if she had screamed 'gorgonzola cheese' instead".

"Japanese defense minister on the chopping block"

I presume this will be all cleared up, however, with musical numbers by the heir to the throne (in disguise), His Highness the Mikado, the heir's fiancee (both of them), and several other members of the Japanese parliament, and concluded with a rousing song-and-dance number.

This is probably the most insightful post here.

Yeah, there's some asses out there who are clearly predators, but, especially with regards to sexuality and interpersonal relations, it's super easy for your average westerner to "not get" what exactly is going on with a Japanese man or woman.

And the last line is true, too, though "sloppy PR" is definitely not something confined to Japanese politicians.

Why the confusion? Only one of them comes in a 40 pound box.
