Intimate Japan: Date Nights, "Gay Quarters," and the Culture of Peeping Tom
19.99 €
Japan's sexual culture has flourished for centuries in isolation from external influences, without religious prohibitions or ideas about sinfulness. This is what made it so paradoxical and exciting. Why was a bride's virginity considered a disadvantage? How did the creation of erotic pictures turn into high art? Why did Japanese beauties blacken their teeth and shave their eyebrows?

This book will tell you how the intimate life of the Japanese reflected their worldview and how it has changed from ancient times to the present day.
