While the #MeToo movement has taken a strong hold in Europe and North America the same can't be said about Japan. Here sexual harassment, assault, misogyny and blatant paternalism are still alive with no end insight. So, it should unsurprising that a Japanese tabloid would publish a completely sexiest article about which inferred that female students from certain universities where easily lured into hook-up's during drinking parties.
A Japanese university student on Wednesday rejected an apology by a magazine over a report on how easy it was to coax female undergraduates into having sex after her online petition objecting to the article went viral.
The weekly tabloid magazine, Spa!, caused outrage with an article in late December ranking five Japanese universities on how easy it was to persuade female students to have sex at drinking parties.
Kazuna Yamamoto, an international relations student at the International Christian University in Tokyo, posted an online petition protesting about the article that received over 40,000 signatures in six days
Female students riding trains are often groped while traveling to school. With the most infamous being the Saikyo line in Saitama.
