At long last, a replacement for DemonRat party political sex predators without the "getting caught with a fourteen year old minor" problem that's always an embarrassment to the party leading to the usual downfall of said politician. ::hysterical::

Yeah, it seems the Japanese culture has a tendency to produce perverts. The Germans have their fair share of them too. I think there's a vague correlation with cultures that have highly regimented social rules.

Supposedly there are vending machines in Japan that purport to sell women's used underwear.  Maybe that's just an urban legend, I don't know because I've never actually looked to see if it's true.
