Title: only in japan
Post by: kopking on March 26, 2003, 02:27:24 PM

only in japan



What you will be seeing are not see-thru skirts.  They are actually
prints on the skirts to make it look as if something more revealing is
visible. Apparently, they are the current rage in Japan.


hope it works

Those photos are fakes.  I\'ve looked at other ones in the same series, and there are several that look like obvious fakes.

Since you suggested a google search, I did one.  And it turns out I\'m right.  :)

As The Toronto Star noted:

"They (the pictures) are quite common in Japan. There are a lot of cheap porno magazines that use them," Kjeld Duits, 43, says in an interview from Ashia, near Osaka, Japan, where he works as a journalist and runs a street fashion/trend Web site called japanesestreets.com.

"The only time you see these scenes are in photographs in porno magazines. There\'s nothing like this in the street," Duits says.

The magazines use a computer graphics program to combine the image of a skirted woman with another wearing just underwear. The end result looks as if the skirt is see-through.

According to Duits, the magazines will usually claim to have taken the pictures using a special camera lens that allows them to shoot through clothes.

Lacking any evidence to the contrary, we\'d guess that these pictures have been manipulated, taken from some other source and used out of context, or deliberately concocted to lend credence to a fabricated story.

^ Please post them.

I call BS.

My barber goes to Japan regularly (every 3 months or so to visit his wife) and claims this a myth.

Plus, about 90% of tourists on Guam come from Japan.... I work at the airport, right beside the one arrivals area from where the Narita flights arrive, and I have yet to see ONE of these skirts around. I see more Japanese people in one day than all you guys see combined in a year. :nerd:
