Tokyo police act on train gropers

[Loco]

Tokyo police have begun a week-long crackdown against the twice-daily scourge of gropers on commuter trains.

Undercover teams have been deployed on some lines in a bid to catch molesters in the act on crowded trains.

Last year more than 6,000 people were arrested on suspicion of groping or taking unsolicited photographs.

According to one survey, nearly two-thirds of young women have been groped on public transport. Some train lines have introduced women-only carriages.

Website 'recommendations'

Tokyo police have begun what is being described as a "groping prevention week".

There are conspicuous extra police patrols in stations handing out leaflets, and undercover teams have been deployed on trains to try to catch men in the act.

Gropers can be imprisoned for up to seven years in Japan.

Local reports say the police are particularly concerned that gropers are using the internet to co-ordinate their activities and form gangs.

Several suspects arrested in recent months are said to have told officers they had targeted particular train lines because of recommendations they had read on websites.

i always get on the train hoping to be groped but nobody comes near me

also wondering if the 'female only' train admits lesbians because if i were a lesbian that is where i would want to be

[Kokuwakamusha]

I wonder if there is a ranking system for train lines

Ex. The Chuo Line is ranked C, for the amount of C-cup women on a daily basis.

Pretty soon some pro-groper will study the habits of the women and police and come out with a site on best times for groping and best times for not getting caught.

Ex. I enjoying groping between 3pm and 6pm because the high school girls fill up the train quite nicely. But, I take into consideration between 5pm and 6pm is the shift change so the new shift workers come in with a restless attitude, just looking for someone to takedown.

Yes. Was on Japantoday yesterday. Here's (http://forum.gaijinpot.com/showthread.php?t=75006) a thread on that.

It's interesting that groping is perceived as a male perpetrator, female victim only problem.
Haven't the police caught on to the wonderful world of "chijo," particularly along the Inokashira line?

Yeah, I know for some poor 35 year old male virgins, encountering a chijo may sound like a world of wonder, but keep in mind that the women who do it are supposedly in their 40s or older usually, and their targets tend to be junior high through college boys.

lol I used to have this student...he was kinda nerdy and very awkward...one time in class the topic of groping on trains came up and he said he was molested several times as a junior high kid when he commuted on the Inokashira line. His comment was kinda funny...it was something like, "When you are 13, having a woman in her 40s start groping you and flashing her sagging breasts at you is pretty scary. But as an adult, I wish that would happen to me sometimes now."

[talibanana]

for real taco.........sounds like a nightmare i had last night

there are some hot 40 year old witches on this island though

ever stare at one from behind and then she turns around and she is like 40-something?

yikes!!

[jinseinosensei]

I avoid public transportation like the plague and I never plan to work at a company again. It's too risky when women can easily make false claims of groping on a train, sexual harassment in the workplace, and rape when she happens to be pissed at men in general. I resent that so many girls get abortions using rape as the reason when most of the claims are just to cover their stagetory rapist boyfriends etc... How can statistics be considered "valid" when so many abuses take place...?

A friend and I had met a couple of chicks and we were coming back from our first date with them and while we were on the train I noticed that some guy had his hand on one of our date's butt. I told my friend about it and we quickly muscled him away, we wanted to kick his arse but we didn't want to scare the chicks. We should have beat him up though, apparently the girl though it was one of us because when we called them back up they wanted nothing to do with us, even though the date had gone well and things were looking good.

Damn gropers !

They wanted nothing to do with you b/c you'd caused a scene in public. Worse than having her arse groped by a stranger was being seen with someone getting violent and uppity. If I didn't know better I'd guess you'd just arrived in Asia last year. Late last year.

We belive you...though no one else would...

[rubirosa]

Just to clear up a couple of things.

The incident in question occured a long time ago, during my misspent youth.

My buddy and I discreetly muscled the guy away, that's why the girl didn't know who was palming her butt.

In hindsight, it probably would have been better if we had roughed the guy up right then and there.

And.

It's nice to be believed.

Even if it's only by the wackos here on the pot.

[真鬼姫]

After watching that movie about the person who was falsely accused of groping, I've been pretty careful on the trains. No matter what evidence supports you, what logic works for you, and what witnesses that can vouch for you, you're screwed!

One of my earlier wives told me how she'd get groped most days on the train. Once when she was leaving the station a female passenger told her all the buttons on her skirt were undone. She wasn't too upset about being groped I thought. She just kind-of accepted it as how things were.

Later when she was married to me a drunk labourer-type of man felt her up on the train home. That time she reported it to the police. She said she really regretted it and said it was like being groped again because of all the personal questions the police asked. She felt the police were perverts as well. She was particularly annoyed with their questions such as " Which hand did he use?" How did he squeeze?" Did you feel excited?"

Another time I saw a pretty girl hanging onto a strap and looking demurely at the floor of the compartment - when a businessman walks right next to her and deliberately stared at her breasts and hips. He stood millimetres from her - and the compartment was almost empty. I was with a NZ man and we looked at each other shocked - and not knowing what to do!

In retrospect maybe the girl and the businessman were role-playing? Y'see I do stuff like that as well.

Before I headed for the southern islands when I was living in Kansai I sometimes used to notice a woman who always wore green. She was in her forties I think. She would let her skirt ride up showing where her panties ought to be. She never batted an eyelid! Good effort I thought.

Another woman cought me by surprise when I found my hand pinned against the hand-rail in a train by a large-breasted housewife. She never batted an eyelid either and I just sort-of pretended everything was normal as the train rocked about and feeling her breasts rolling all over my hands.

There are other ways to do things.

It is decided!

You are a sick f*ck!

Those old man gropers on the train are just amusing to me. I never really got groped, but I had this one group of old men who were on the train every night when I returned home from school. They were always drunk (and still drinking on the train) and always sat right beside and across from me. They thought I couldn't understand Japanese and said some rather...nasty things. I just had to laugh, dirty old men!

According to your standards? Then I suppose am flattered.

What's your problem?

[Guru]

If the train (usually an express or a semi-express) is too crowded, I get off it and hop on a local. Extra several minutes to half an hour are a worthy trade off, while I read a book and listening podcasts or music.

By the way, which lines are known for super crowdedness in the Tokyo proper, regardless of the existence of sicko gropers?

Your remarks about "Engrish" teachers of Asian extraction and (Jewish?) banking conspiracies reinforces my view that you are a total loser dude.

I have never mentioned a Jewish banking conspiracy. You just made that up or you know something I don't about the banks. Are you saying they are all jews?

Anyway, that's rich coming from the person who described Chinese Americans as 'slanty-eyed.'

Depends on the time of day. I am a daily Chuo Line communter and it is hell from 7 am to about 930 am. Yamonte Line going counterclockwise starts getting packed about 730 am especially from Ikebukuro to Shibuya.

[ちなら]

Getting on the morning train with Hornby toys in your pockets can yield a certain larf. I'm against copping the opportunistic feel, but I'm all for having someone touch me inappropriately. Socks in the crotch?

I was groped so many times-7 over the course of 5 yrs. I have a perfect bubbly letter 'C' shaped ___, so all my hard work at the gym paid off-men noticed!
My perps were all old, which didn't bother me. I thought it was cute.

So I were to swing by a grab a handful would it not be as cute?

[gaijin ga iru]

It's pretty disturbing that some of these gropers actually formed a network. I find myself in the odd position of advocating sleeping as a better hobby.
