Japanese Politicians' Sexual Desires and Educational Background

【Incident ① below】

 The "incident" involving the Mayor of Maebashi (female, 43) having repeated "secret rendezvous" with a subordinate (senior official) at Maebashi City Hall in a love hotel has been causing a huge uproar in Japan since last year. It has been widely reported not only in tabloid magazines but also on television. It has also caused a huge uproar in the Maebashi City Council. Eventually, the mayor resigned and a new election was called.

 From the beginning, I wondered, "Why are the Japanese monkeys making such a fuss about something like this?" This "incident" is not a case of power harassment, sexual harassment, or a romantic relationship that became complicated and led to trouble between a man and a woman. There are no financial issues, and it is not a case of abuse of authority (such as promoting a male subordinate). This "love hotel rendezvous incident" is a simple case of workplace romance.

 However, since the middle-aged subordinate was married, it is considered an "adultery," and the Japanese monkeys are making a big fuss about it as a pink scandal.

 In fact, the mayor's response was poor. Was she no people around? At the press conference, the mayor admitted that she occasionally met with a male subordinate at a love hotel, but repeatedly stated that they didn't have sex.

 However, in Japan, this is 500% impossible. There are no Japanese macaques in Japan that go to love hotels and don't mate.

 Rather than telling a ridiculous lie that even elementary school students wouldn't believe, she should have simply said, "I loved him. We had sex because we loved each other. There were no problems between us and we had a good romantic relationship. I feel sorry for (the man's) wife." That way, there would be no room for further attack.

 However, Japanese women are completely unable to do this. It's safe to say that there are no Japanese women who can confidently make statements like the one above in public. It's probably because they're embarrassed. Japanese women continue to insist, "I didn't do it. I didn't do it. I didn't do it. I definitely didn't have sex." 

 This is why male monkeys all over Japan find it amusing and continue to make a fuss.

 While the mayor was the target of this latest "adultery incident," similar "incidents" involving female members of parliament are occasionally "scooped" in Japan. There are too many to list here, and I don't remember them all.

 In past cases, female members of parliament who had "secret rendezvous in hotels with men who have wives and children" have, without exception, made the excuse, "I didn't do anything. I just met the man in a hotel." Even when their photos are taken in hotels by weekly photo magazines or Bunshun Bazooka (although it was secretly taken...), Japanese women always insist, "I didn't have sex."

 It seems that the perception that "romance is shameful" still lingers among Japanese women.

 By the way, what exactly is a "love hotel"? This is a "hotel" unique to Japan, and is a favorite place for Japanese macaques to mate. They can be found all over Japan.

 If you're a foreign couple visiting Japan, it might be interesting to try staying at a love hotel. Love hotels are amusement facilities with a variety of unique features, so you may become a better memory of your trip than a business hotel, capsule hotel (though this "hotel" is also unique to Japan...), or youth hostel. You might even be able to take photos and show off to your friends.

 However, if you're with children or two men, you might be denied entry. Homosexuality is not accepted in Japan, and parents with children can be strict (see the Agnes controversy).

【Incident ② below】

 In Japan, suspicions of politicians falsifying their academic credentials have been frequently reported for the past several decades. It makes us wonder, "Are there still people who do this?"

 Former Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka only graduated from elementary school, but he was called a "computer-equipped bulldozer" and his quick thinking was widely recognized.

 However, in a "mikoshi society," it is extremely difficult to compete on merit. In a Japanese village, if someone did something like that, they would be treated as a "nail that sticks out," ganged up on, and crushed.

 This is one of the reasons for a social culture that relies on "educational background" rather than achievements, ability, motivation, or spirit.

【Incident ③ below】

 Under Japanese law (Local Autonomy Act), if a local assembly (city, town, village, or prefectural assembly) is voted no confidence in the head of a local government, the assembly can be dissolved. The head of the local government can also resign, hold a new election, and run for re-election. The head of the local government has a choice.

 However, if the assembly votes no confidence again after the election, the governor cannot "resign" or "dissolve" the assembly and will be "lost in his/her job." In company terms, this would be like being "fired," so it carries a great political risk.

 The head is free to run again in the election (second election) after "losing his/her job" (freedom of candidacy is guaranteed under the Constitution, so he/she can run as many times as he/she likes). But, if they lose the election, their political career is effectively over, so the political risk is great.

【Incident ④ below】

 While the degree of this may vary, the same trend may be seen in every country, but it is only in a very small percentage of cases that a courageous woman seeks outside advice (which requires providing "evidence," posing the risk of secondary, tertiary, or quaternary victimization), and the case is not hushed up at the scene and becomes public.

 In Japan, most "scandals" involving those with money and power, or government offices, schools, medical institutions, or police, are hushed up at the scene.

〘The Mayor Issue Spreads Controversy〙

Troubles caused by mayor scandals are occurring one after another across the country. Conflicts with local assemblies over the mayor's future are intensifying, often leading to stagnation in local administration. We have compiled news related to mayors causing controversy.

① 【Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture - Maebashi Mayor Akira Ogawa ＝ Love Hotel Secret Meeting Issue】

 Mayor Ogawa (♀, 43) was caught having a secret meeting with a married male subordinate at a love hotel.

 Mayor Ogawa admitted to meeting the man more than 10 times at love hotels in and around Maebashi. She apologized, saying, "While there was no romantic relationship, it was a thoughtless act that led to misunderstandings."

 The Maebashi City Council asked the mayor to "make a prompt decision on her future." However, Mayor Ogawa announced her intention to continue in office, taking a 50% pay cut.

 When the City Council protested and decided to vote on a no-confidence motion, Mayor Ogawa reversed course and submitted her resignation to the City Council Speaker on December 25, 2025. The Maebashi mayoral election will be held on January 12, 2026. Mayor Ogawa has announced that she will run again.

② 【Itō City, Shizuoka Prefecture - Mayor Takubo Maki - Educational Background Falsification Issue】

 Mayor Takubo (♀) listed her highest level of education as "graduated from Toyo University."

 Miss.Takubo explained, "I discovered that I was expelled, not graduated." However, after facing backlash from the city council, she initially expressed her intention to resign as mayor.

 However, Mayor Takubo reversed her intention to resign and announced that she would continue in office. 

 In response, the city council unanimously passed a vote of no confidence against Mayor Takubo. 

 Mayor Takubo also dissolved the city council in retaliation, leading to a city council election. 

 However, the new council passed another vote of no confidence, and this time Mayor Takubo lost her position.

 The mayoral election was held on December 14, 2025, and Takubo ran again, but was defeated by former city council member Sugimoto Kenya.

③ 【Nanjo City, Okinawa Prefecture - Mayor Kageharu Koja ＝ Sexual Harassment Issue】

 Mayor Koja (♂) was found guilty by a third-party committee for sexually harassing female city employees (including kissing them and touching their thighs).

 Mayor Koja denies the allegations, but audio recordings were also found of him trying to silence the female employees.

 The city council passed a vote of no confidence in Koja. However, Mr. Koja rebelled and dissolved the council.

A city council election was held, and Mayor Kageharu Koja was re-elected.

 However, the new city council also passed a vote of no confidence, resulting in Koja's loss of office.

 The second mayoral election was scheduled for December 21, 2025, but Koja did not run.

④ 【Fukui Prefecture Governor Tatsuji Sugimoto ＝ Suspected Sexual Harassment Message Issue】

 Governor Sugimoto (♂) sent inappropriate messages that constituted sexual harassment to a female employee.

 The female employee reported the matter to an external Fukui Prefectural office, and the prefecture began an investigation.

 Governor Sugimoto admitted to sending similar messages to other female employees on November 25, 2025. He then stated, "I will resign from my position as governor in order to minimize the chaos in prefectural government and ensure that prefectural government is restarted under a new system as soon as possible." 

 A gubernatorial election is scheduled, but Sugimoto has denied running in a re-election.

@superhandnakaimai

 I've learned this since working as a Nakai at a Ryokan: Japanese people are stingy.

 Of course, foreign tourists, including Westerners, Chinese, and Koreans, as well as Indians and Thais (though not as many as Westerners, Chinese, and Koreans, they usually give around 3,000-4,000 yen).

 However, Japanese tourists don't even give tips (Kokorozuke).

 Even when I bring food to their room, they don't even say thank you, let alone tip (kokorozuke).

 Japanese guests take all the tea and snacks home with them, which is ridiculous to me.

 Why are Japanese people so stingy?

 If they want to save so much, why don't they just stop traveling?

China's National Intelligence Law requires all citizens to cooperate with intelligence activities, and Chinese students can be forced to cooperate with intelligence activities at any time. In other words, they are legally obligated to work as spies.

In addition, those receiving scholarships through the China Scholarship Council (CSC) are required to sign a secret agreement pledging allegiance to the Chinese Communist Party. This was recently discovered in Sweden.

According to this agreement, international students are required to actively submit to the supervision of overseas embassies and consulates.

For example, if an international student violates the agreement or withdraws from school, the student's family in China and their former teachers at their alma mater are held jointly responsible for preventing any damages.

Furthermore, to prevent students from defecting, the guarantor's family members are not allowed to leave the country except for short periods during their studies. In other words, international students who sign this agreement are bound by strict rules and are subject to the command and orders of the Chinese Communist Party. Since the agreement was discovered, there is a risk of advanced technology being leaked.

Because international students, deprived of academic freedom, are deemed unsuitable for the role of international students, a number of universities in Europe and the United States have terminated their contracts with CSC and are refusing to admit spies posing as international students.

Such universities include Sweden, Germany, Denmark, the Netherlands, and the United States.

Universities such as the University of Tokyo, Waseda University, Kyoto University, Nagoya University, and Yokohama National University still partner with CSC to accept many Chinese students.

In other words, this is a defenseless cooperative relationship.

Japanese people disrespect service industry employees.

This has led to deflation and stunted domestic demand.

If the strong yen has made it harder to make money in the manufacturing industry, then the economy won't grow unless we treat service industry employees well, as their purchasing prices have fallen and their jobs are booming.

Japanese people look down on and mock even scaffolders, road construction workers, and factory workers.

That's why their salaries are low and no one wants to do those jobs anymore.

Furthermore, Japanese people are a stingy people who are even jealous of people on welfare.

The prevalence of Japanese black companies is also due to the stingy mindset of Japanese people.

In a country with a culture and salary system that doesn't allow for tipping, if you need a tip, you should tell the manager.

When foreigners give tips, their wages are reduced accordingly.

They turn a blind eye to the horrors of capitalism and take advantage of the immediate kindness of consumers.

That's the limit of Japanese people, who love to bully the weak.

It's a breeding ground for tax evasion, so I'm sure inns are being instructed by the tax office to refuse kokorozuke.

Kokorozuke results in disparities in the amount employees receive, and there's nothing good about it.

Similarly, if you don't give money or gifts to a doctor before surgery, you'll get into trouble.

The tipping system overseas is based on the idea that the owner cannot make a living without tips.

In other words, the customer is compensating for the salary that should be paid by the owner.

It's a strange system in which the customer is then charged the full amount on top of that.

In the old days, kokorozuke in Japan was a custom of giving a full-time employee a bonus if they received good service.

I wonder when it went out of fashion.

In the past, if you didn't offer kokorozuke, you were likely to receive poor service, so you had to offer it.

As the quality of service improved and people started working without tips, people started thinking, "Well, what's the point? I don't have the money."

In the old days, if you didn't tip the movers, they would mess up your belongings, and if you didn't tip the doctor, they would mess up your belongings too.

Egging in Japan …preface

 Characteristics of egg-throwing incidents in Japan: The perpetrators are almost exclusively male. This reflects a general tendency of delayed mental development among modern Japanese men, manifesting as a sociopathological phenomenon.

 Childish, simplistic, and self-aggrandizing acts of violence; a lack of a self-regulating mechanism.

 A psychopathological phenomenon that succinctly illustrates the developmental disorder of mental age (mental immaturity) observed in the majority of self-proclaimed "Japanese men" in the postwar era (most men's development stops at the level of a two-year-old. Lack of emotion, expressionless, indifference, extremely low communication and language skills with others (completely unable to greet or introduce themselves), etc.).

 In Japan, "egging" is almost non-existent, even towards national sports representatives, politicians, or wealthy individuals. Most cases of "egging" in Japan are due to neighborhood disputes or childish "pranks."

 Distorted conformity pressure. A sense of equality and inferiority that forces people to constantly bow deeply, lower their heads, and act subserviently at the lowest level. A nationalistic habit of vile and persistent mutual surveillance against those who "stick out." Psychopathological social phenomena resulting from these factors.

 What is common in East Asia is the absence of religious background or "racial discrimination" sentiments. "Hate crimes" in Asia tend to be directed towards "insiders" (kin hatred). This tendency is particularly strong in Japan (the targets of attack are almost 100% Japanese).

The neighborhood association collected signatures via a circulating bulletin board, requesting that the joint liability system not be applied to Mr. Jinnai. Questions have been raised about the neighborhood association's involvement.

 The neighborhood association collected signatures via a circulating bulletin board, requesting that the joint liability system not be applied to Mr. Jinnai. Questions have been raised about the neighborhood association's involvement.

 Regarding the election violation case involving Mr. Hachiro Jinnai (61 years old) =Democratic Party=, who was elected in the Nagasaki City district in the April 2011 prefectural assembly election, it was revealed on July 16, 2011, that signatures requesting the non-application of the joint liability system were being collected by supporters of Mr. Jinnai through circulating bulletin boards of neighborhood associations within the Doikubi District Neighborhood Association Federation.

 Residents have raised concerns, asking, "Is it appropriate to collect signatures through the neighborhood association?"

 In the criminal case, three people were found guilty of violating the Public Offices Election Act by the Nagasaki District Court (all three appealed). These three include the overall organizer and the treasurer. If either of these two receives a sentence of a fine or more, the joint liability system under the Public Offices Election Act will be applied to Mr. Jinnai, rendering his election invalid.

 The aforementioned signatures are being collected by seven of Mr. Jinnai's supporters who initiated the campaign. These supporters argue that "there was absolutely no intention of bribery between the parties involved, so the application of the joint liability system is extremely unfair." 

 Among the initiators is Hideaki Matsuo, the chairman of the aforementioned federation, which is located in Mr. Jinnai's hometown.

 According to a neighborhood association officer belonging to the federation, at a federation meeting held in mid-June 2011, Chairman Hideaki Matsuo requested cooperation in collecting signatures. 

 This neighborhood association, after consulting among its officers, distributed one signature sheet to each household using a circulating bulletin board in early July 2011, stating, "This is a voluntary petition, so we ask that those who can cooperate please do so."

 Chairman Hideaki Matsuo stated, "Having one less locally elected representative would be a disadvantage for the community. Therefore, I requested cooperation from the 13 neighborhood associations.  This is unrelated to election campaigning, and I left the decision to each neighborhood association; there was no coercion, so I believe there is no problem."
