Parents and campaigners have called on education and health authorities to end the practice of requiring children to strip off for school health checks
“My chest was completely exposed and I felt embarrassed,” writes a Japanese girl after undergoing an annual health checkup at her middle school. Another says: “Before the exam our teacher told us we would have to lift up our tops and bra … I didn’t want to do it but I couldn’t say no.”
The testimony from two 13-year-olds, seen by the Guardian, is typical of the discomfort – and in some cases trauma – felt by children attending schools in Japan that can require boys and girls as young as five – and as old as 18 – to strip to the waist during health examinations.
It has sparked anger among parents and campaigners who have called on education and health authorities to end the practice before the new academic year begins in April.
I like how anime 100% missed this, they had the trials of students attacked and seduced by demons and ghosts and aliens, this part they completely missed.
edit: Or I am an anime snob, either way.
Don’t be weird
To late ☹️
I’m not saying I want to watch it, I don’t, I’m saying considering the plot points it has, this is a surprising omission.
The article is about 13 year olds having their chests examined.
Edit: sorry, about children as young as 5. Again, don’t be fucking weird and say you’re surprised there isn’t porn about it.
I’m surprised because I want to see it, I’m surprised because they cover literally everything else.
And note I said Anime, not Manga,. Anime isn’t porn, Manga often is.
Holy prude, batman.
You’re defending CP
Nah, a lot of school life manga cover this, at least briefly, especially with female authors. It tends to be kept brief or referenced off screen however, to avoid needing to censor or change the rating.
