yeah sorry i wasnt too clear, get a but lazy with the ol' sentence construction sometimes. i really meant "doesn't happen a lot in my presence". i have heard of it happening a fair bit though. and it obviously does happen a lot according to the numbers you posted above.

drinking beers and putting holes in my manners does happen a fair bit. lol

Not a good idea to try and beat down a salery man in his own country. cops will always be on his side and you'll be f#"cked.

Another good one,

went to the beach last summer and saw this dude with a camera with a lense about a foot long walking up to chicks, asking to take there phot then blatently pointing it down there cleavage, and repeat proceedure. Then i look up to see this guy sitting with a video camera next to him and his arm moving vigerously. I thought to myself"no way, couldnt be" then these chicks walk past infront of him, look down and freak out (in a very subtle japanese way) next thing you know he's bolting down the beach with the cops chasing him. Then they came back and got statements.

I once had a discussion to a male (Japanese) student about chikansu and related stuff, and at first he was 'on the back foot' because I wanted to talk about one of the more sinister aspects of squeaky clean Japanese culture ... after about 10 minutes though, he was looking me straight in the eye and saying "You're a guy, so you've thought about approaching a girl in public and... well... haven't you? Most men do, so it's just a fact of life. Many girls are too sexy and inviting... what can you do?" hmmm <_<

I'm NOT standing up for these freaks, and I'm not trying to understand their perspective, I just thought I'd mention a reason why it happens.

Oh and Gojira... email me mate, I'm still waiting for your Chrissy and New Years best wishes...

An otherwise very inteligent studeent in the voice room (a room withlots of students and one teacher) at nova when i worked there said he had wanted to rape one of his class mates at uni infront of all the english student(many women) and staff. no one could believe it! Surfice to say none of the student would talk to him after that and even gave him dirty looks which is very outgoing for a japanese house wife.

are you talking about you drinking beers and then your restraint fades, or are you talking about chikan attacks not happening a lot. If its the second im affraid it happens a lot. They dont have posters up at train stations for nothing...

but with your other comments i totally agree

cheers

one of my high school girls screamed out and some guys grabbed the chikan and he was an off duty police officer. What a stupid thing to lose your job over. some of the girls carry pins on their jackets to defend themeselves. problem is getting better in Japan then 10 years ago. My ex got touched up and got off the train and slapped the guy just before the door closed . a very cool girl.

its happened to a few more people I know in recent months ....

one such case being a high school girl walking along the street and a man on a motorbike pulls up in front of her (she was walking on the footpath) he then went for grabs successfully and rode away . assholes

Theres a Japanese site crather like www.ebaumsworld.com, and I always go to see the new wacky videos he puts up... and low and behold today it's a chikan vid.

"This freak runs up to a girl - who is seated at a train station waiting - with his cock hanging out of his jeans... then proceeds to rub his manhood over her arms, and even attemps to go for the face... before running away without so much as a yelp from the girl. Just a 'wtf???' look on her face."

I'll say it again. Until the wider community (and the victims themselves) stand up to this as awhole, it's gonna keep happening.
