To Japan for the horny desperate housewives!

Ashley Madison, the website to hook you up for extra-martial affairs (which was also banned in Spore), grew at the fastest pace in Japan to reach 1 million members. What makes this is more intriguing is that women who join the website outnumbered men 2 to 1, as they hunt around for their pogo stick. In fact, it seems Japanese women could be leading the world in looking for sex outside of their marriages. To make things even more exciting, they are apparently proud of their conquests and will tell their friends about it. Yikes, nothing better than a fuck buddy introducing another. Hoh Seh!

It turns out Japanese married couples like sex as much as anyone, but not so much with each other.


In the last year headlines about how celibacy is trending in Japan have gained attention around the world: “No sex please, we’re Japanese,” reports the BBC. But, wait a minute. This is a country where an estimated two trillion yen ($19.3 billion) are spent each year on the legal sex industry. And now it looks like the land of the rising sun is also the land of rising adultery. Ashley Madison—the international web site for married people who want to fool around—is taking Japan by storm.

“Life is short. Have an affair,” the site advises its clients, and when it launched in Japan on June 24 of last year it signed up over 120, 000 members in just ten days. As of March 27 of this year, that membership had grown to 1,074,075 people.

Out of all the markets Ashley Madison has penetrated, Japan was the fastest to reach one million members. If the numbers continue to grow at the current pace, by the end of the year one per cent of the entire Japanese population will have joined. Those numbers do not immediately negate Japan’s sexless marriage problem, but they do suggest that there are over a million people trying to get some action, and the problem may not be so much that married couples don’t want to have sex as that they don’t want to have sex with each other.

The ratio of women to men on the site is about two to one, which shows that many of Japan’s desperate housewives are determined to be desperate no more.

“There’s no doubt in an intelligent Japanese woman’s mind that her husband, who probably isn’t making love to her all that often, is somehow partaking in sexual encounters somewhere out there,” said Noel Biderman, the founder and CEO of Ashley Madison. “And to her, in what is becoming a more equitable society, that seems like BS,” he told The Daily Beast. “She doesn’t want a life of celibacy—that’s not how she’s engineered either.”

In a survey to be released on April 2, which targeted 75,000 users around the world (3, 500 in Japan), there are some interesting statistics.

First of all, Japanese women lead the world in their rush to have affairs, and, yes, 55 percent of Japanese women have an affair because they’re not having enough sex with their husband. This matches the results of a national survey of 14,000 people by condom-maker Sagami, which found that 55 percent of married couples considered their relationship sexless. By comparison, the women surveyed in other parts of the world cited lack of sex as the reason for an affair only 40 percent of the time.

It seems that Japanese people also don’t feel much guilt about their affairs: 8 percent of women and 19 percent of men throughout the world said in the survey that they felt bad about their adultery. (Remember, the people surveyed have already signed up for a fling.) But in Japan, hey, the guilt quotient is only 8 percent for men and for women just 2 percent, or about a quarter of the world average.

And not only are people in Japan not guilty about their affairs, they’re also proud of them.

“In America lots of women use Ashley Madison, but I don’t think they tell their friends about it. I think they’re telling their friends about it here. I think there’s some ‘virality’ going on. Not only are they unashamed, they are, in a sense, proud,” said Biderman.

International Sunday: Aimi Yoshikawa

International Sunday was started to promote diversity and tolerance amongst the different groups of race, ethnicity and nationalities living, working and playing in Singapore. Afterall, Sunday is the day when most of us get a day of rest, well, most of us, anyway.

For this week, we are going to Nippon land. I wanted to go Japanese today because I just read about some Japanese soldier dude, Rahmat Shigeru Ono, 94 years old, that stayed on behind in Indonesia after WWII and helped the Indonesians fight the Dutch colonialists. How fucking amazing is that, he eventually settled down in Indonesia and married a local and even outlive some of his children. Maybe he took the Jap Emperor's hogwash of liberating Asia for real!  

Aimi Yoshikawa is a Japanese model/adult actress who made her debut when she was 18 years old. There is not much info about her in English but I guess with her angelic face and crazy body, Jap bros must be going crazy and jerking off like mad to her. Aimi is so adorable and super racked up that it really blows men away. I guess that's why she is gaining popularity. See the pictures to judge for yourself. You would die just to share an ice-cream with her.
