Tokyo used-panty trade faces ban
February 21, 2004
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government has prepared a bill to ban trade in
schoolgirls' used underwear.
The bill seeks to punish violators with fines of up to 500,000 yen. It would be
the nation's first local government ordinance to include such provisions.
The bill, part of a revision to the ordinance on the upbringing of youth, also
seeks to ban and punish scouts who solicit girls to work in the adult
entertainment business.
The metro government will submit the bill to its assembly Wednesday, and
expects to enforce the revised ordinance from June if the bill is passed.
It calls for a complete ban on trade in used panties, accepting requests to
sell, and introducing buyers to sellers.
It also seeks to punish those who provide space for such trade, including sex
shops where girls can sell directly to customers.
There are 28 such "burusera" shops in Tokyo, the Metropolitan Police Department
said.
By targeting shops with fines of up to 500,000 yen and individual buyers with
fines of up to 300,000 yen, the metro government hopes to end the practice.
