The unsightly pictures you see above are from a Japanese recruitment website recruiting prostitutes.

They recruit young girls around the age of 20 and take advantage of the visa-free Japanese passport to go to the United States, Australia, Canada and other countries to sell sex. They promise to earn 5 million to 7.5 million yen a month, which is equivalent to 33,000 to 49,500 US dollars.

Such exaggerated income quickly ignited a "gold rush" abroad in Japan. Thousands of women enter the United States every month in the name of tourism, and then engage in prostitution activities. With a phone call, they can fly across the United States, earning 2 billion in foreign exchange every year. The scale is so large that it directly alarms the FBI.

Recently, the United States announced that the entire country of Japan will be included in the "cross-border prostitution blacklist." From now on, every Japanese woman entering the country will be subject to the most severe interrogation.

According to the "Asahi Shimbun" report, at the beginning of this month, a Japanese female internet celebrity wanted to go to Hawaii to shoot a travel video. Unexpectedly, she was subject to a humiliating search by US Customs. Not only did they strip her naked to check if there were any contraband, but her suitcase was also messed up, and her private belongings were scattered on the floor.

The customs officer pointed to a very sexy swimsuit and asked, "Why did you bring these to the United States? Are you going to wear them during the 'service'?"

The Japanese woman explained that she was an internet celebrity and needed to change different clothes to shoot videos. However, she didn't get the understanding of the other side. The interrogation lasted for 27 hours. Finally, she was deported on the grounds of having an impure motive for entry.

The news spread back to Japan, causing a sensation. The Japanese people could never have imagined that they, "honorary citizens of Western society," would be treated so rudely in the United States. Waves of condemnation against American bullying rose up. Armchair - quarterback netizens even shouted the slogan of "immediately expel the US military from Okinawa."

While the Japanese people's indignation is understandable, those "veterans" familiar with the inside story know full well that the plight of Japanese women in the US today is entirely self - inflicted.

The reason begins when the yen exchange rate plummeted last year.

Last year, the Japanese yen, which had been holding firm for three years, suddenly plummeted. The exchange rate against the US dollar fell from over 100 to 160. The consumption power of the US dollar increased by 60% out of thin air. As a result, the United States set off a tourism boom to Japan, and the Japanese tourism industry ushered in an unprecedented prosperity.

Behind the prosperity, a large number of low- and middle-income groups in the country are living in dire straits. Prices are soaring, savings are shrinking, property prices are out of control, and small and medium-sized enterprises are forced to lay off employees. The sluggish economy has pushed many young women into the porn industry, providing services to foreign tourists and earning US dollars.

Whenever night falls, there are two places in Tokyo with the most foreigners. One is the time - honored "red light district" Kabukicho, and the other is the "free market" Okubo Park. It is said that the girls in the park can negotiate the price, ranging from 15,000 yen to 20,000 yen per trip.

The service of Japanese women has been well received by foreign tourists, praising "rich in skills", "very gentle" and "will come again next time".

Some smart-minded "pimps" think: In this case, why not promote "Japanese-style service" to the whole world?

So, they started building a website and recruiting young women who were willing to “work” abroad. The recruitment advertisement was extremely attractive, stating that “work while traveling, with no compulsory working hours, accommodation and meals provided, and round - trip air tickets included”.

After arriving in the United States, these girls will be taken to luxurious villas in Los Angeles, Hawaii, Las Vegas and other places, where they will be fed delicious food and drinks. After nightfall, they will serve those rich and powerful American guests. If the money is enough, they can also provide door-to-door services, which is known as "flying all over the United States."

Affected by the depreciation of the yen, Japanese girls can earn twice as much for one service in the United States as at home.

As a very open country, the United States has a high tolerance for sex. Why can't it tolerate Japanese prostitutes?

There are two reasons.

First, these Japanese women earn billions of dollars from the US every year without paying taxes to the US. For Trump, who had just taken office and emphasized “America First,” this was undoubtedly taking advantage of Americans. It's not that you're not allowed to “sell” here, but you must take the initiative to pay taxes when you make money.

The second is that these Japanese women have more sexually transmitted diseases and have infected many Americans. The roots are still in Japan. Due to the popularity of prostitutes, the number of people infected with syphilis in Japan has reached record highs in recent years. Among them, there are many people who get the disease in Japan and go to the United States to make a fortune.

Therefore, the fundamental purpose of the United States including Japan on the "cross-border prostitution blacklist" is to force the Japanese to pay taxes, standardize business operations, and Make America Great Again!

Japan is expected to accept the request of the United States soon. After all, they have a long tradition of selling sex across borders. In the 19th century, at the beginning of the Meiji Restoration, in order to help Japan earn foreign exchange, hundreds of thousands of Japanese girls were sent to Southeast Asia to sell sex, known as "Karayuki-san (Ms. Gone Abroad)".

They kept half of the money they earned and sent half back to their country. Even if they contracted sexually transmitted diseases and died in a foreign country, the cemetery must face Japan.

Perhaps, in the eyes of the Japanese, this is also a way of being loyal to the country.
