Apr 03, 2017 The communal athletic shower certainly was fodder for Hollywood’s treatment of high school and college comedy. In their day, the open concept of communal showers made sense both from a design and economic standpoint – multiple showering “stations” within a given space increased efficiency, capacity and throughput.

More Moms Going Down To Ensure Grades Go Up!Rense.comMore Moms Going Down ToEnsure Grades Go Up!By Michael Hoffman Contributing Writer Mainichi Daily News - Japan 1-13-1Dad comes home from an 'adult toy store' andhands his wife a chastity belt. She nods and turns to the couple's 15-year-oldson. 'Let's go,' she says. They disappear into the boy's bedroom. The story begins with Japan's obsessive exam culture.A boy's whole future can depend on the senior high school he gets into.Some mothers will do anything to make sure their junior high school sonspass the all-determining entrance exams. Pretty nearly.
Asahi Geino hears the story of (not their real names)Meiko, 38, and her son Haruki from Kanagawa cram school director YukioShibagaki, who wrote a book on experiences like theirs. Every evening at 8:00, Haruki would vanish into his room,ostensibly to study. Meiko was pleased - until one night she caught aglimpse of him through the slightly open door and realized he was not studyingbut masturbating. Intrigued, she peeked into his room the following night,and the night after that.
The conclusion was inescapable. At the rate hewas going, he would not be ready for his tests. 'I'd better have a talk with him,' she thought- and did. 'Mom,' he said, shyly but firmly, 'I wannado it with you.' Be shocked and angry,or calm and understanding? 'Let's see what your father says.' Father was surprised but kept his head.
'No genitalsex,' he stipulated. 'However, if it's just a question of makingthe boy feel good, I won't say no.' And so every evening Haruki's studying was prefaced bya 15-minute maternal blow job. His concentration improved; his marks soared.Everyone was happy - except dad, whose doubts grew as time passed. Weren'tthings going a little too far? The chastity belt, at least, would closethe last frontier. Our first reaction is disbelief, but Shibagaki swearsthe story is not only true but also fairly typical, and special high schoolinstructor Tadashi Sato, to whom Asahi Geino goes for confirmation, agrees.
'I often hear stories like that,' he says.The mother-son relationship has always had rich dramatic potential; thesteadily contracting nuclear family can enrich the drama to the point ofdeviance. 'Mothers do want their children to pass those exams,'says Sato. 'We're not talking about just a few cases.' Nor are we talking only about 15-year-olds. Akiko (aswe'll call her) is 28, her son Atsushi 12. He too faces entrance exams- junior high school ones.
The boy seemed to be studying. Why was he floundering?' Akiko asked him one day. The answer was a seeming nonsequitur, but Akiko saw the point. 'I want to see a woman naked.'
Akiko undressed. 'I'll do it again for you if youdo well on your next test, OK?' He did very well. There are endless ramifications to the sex-for-gradesbusiness, Asahi Geino discovers. Teachers too get in on the act. Some third-yearjunior high school teachers are not above capitalizing on the leveragethey wield. Some ask for money in return for influential written recommendations.Others ask for sex.
Thus Mari, 37-year-old mother of a daughter about tograduate junior high, took to visiting the girl's divorced teacher at hishome. One afternoon the teacher's 14-year-old son showed up unexpectedly.' And Mari obliged, says Shibagaki. Comment From Yuki SusukiSan Francisco1-14-2 Hi JeffYour Japanese story today was hilarious. However, there is one detail which I thought I shouldadd: In your story, the boys are entering Senior High School. When I wasliving in Japan 20 years ago, we heard and read the same stories in thepress but the boys then, were entering universities.
Things must have changedin Japan since I left. Comment From Jon Kelly jon@yourinnervoice.com 1-13-2 Hi JeffI found the story 'More Moms Going Down' disturbing.The author seemed ambiguous in their treatment of what is commonly considered'child abuse.'
If anyone here looks down on your, speaks down on your, treats you poorly or rudely then that's on them. This is a SAFE Community and rudeness WILL NOT be tolerated. Feels like we could go on forever this way. Unworthy of your love assassins sheet music. All right.When I was in high school I made 5+ mix CDs of unrequited love showtunes (with a handful of 'sad relationship,' 'break up,' and 'some day my prince will come' style songs) and passed them around to all my angsty musical loving friends. Message the mods and action will be taken.
The definition of 'Incest' according to theOn-line Medical Dictionary is: 'Sexual activity between individuals so closelyrelated that marriage is prohibited. Incest involving a child is a formof child abuse.' From: A better article on this phenomenon would include commentaryfrom family therapists in Japan as well as the UK.
These are people whocould discuss how cycles of abuse evolve, how victims can become offendersthemselves, and what kinds of interventions and treatments are available. Is child abuse something that only happens in Japan?Due to his lack of balanced reporting I can only infer that the authoris less concerned with the broad and long-term significance of this issuethan with its sensationalist and perhaps jingoist potential. Online resources for incest victims include Best WishesJon Kelly.
