What I would like to know is why in Japan, sexual harassment policy is one with a double standard, even though they have a seat in the UN security council?
The double standard is, for a Japanese national it is not illegal for them to grope foreign women, and only foreign women have any legal recourse if they are sexually assaulted in Japan by another fellow foreigner? In fact, the victim's visa could even be revoked or not renewed as she would have caused problems for Japanese nationals. Is this because the Japanese are not too kneen to update laws that are old when it comes to aiding foreigners? Also, Japanese nationals could go overseas and marry a foreigner, and also return to Japan, and marry a Japanese wife, if he wants to. It will not be considered bigamy unless he marries two Japanese wives.
