A man has been arrested for shaking hands after a high schooler accepted his offer of a handshake on a train.
The 34-year-old juku instructor was on board a Kagoshima prefecture commuter train one evening, where he found himself seated in front of a 16-year-old high school girl.
He attempted to strike up a conversation with her, and suggested “let’s shake hands,” and when the girl found herself unable to refuse this request he grasped her proffered hand.
For this outrageous crime he soon found himself arrested under the prefecture’s anti-chikan ordinances.
Police report other incidents of attempted handshaking prompted them to make an arrest, saying that “there were several other cases of handshake requests aboard the trains.”
Online the incident has prompted the usual doubts about the wisdom of boarding the same train as members of the fairer sex, let along attempting to shake hands with them without a ticket:
“So we are finally at the point where you get arrested for shaking hands with someone.”
“To think something like this constitutes a crime.”
“How did they arrest him for this…”
“Police need to get along to one of those AKB events now!”
“Naturally you would arrest someone for the crime of free handshaking.”
“Remember to buy a handshaking event ticket next time.”
“She could have at least refused to shake his hand…”
“Some guy asks to shake your hand on a train with no means of escape, of course you’d be scared!”
“Creepy. One less weirdo on our trains!”
“I want to see what the foreigners say when they hear about this.”
“Arresting him was a bit extreme. Just questioning him would have had the desired effect?”
“It is pretty vindictive that for something like that they publish your full name and occupation.”
“Only a few days ago the media was reporting about a man police killed during interrogation, not a name surfaced but for this they report everything about him?”
“Even I wouldn’t want to shake hands with you lot!”
“If you want to shake hands with young girls you had better be prepared to pay for the privilege like the rest of us!”

Welcome to feminism!
Welcome to Japan
What the hell does feminism have to do with it? It's actually the opposite: the view that women are defenseless creatures always at the mercy of men and therefore all men are sex criminals. Feminism is critical of this kind of discrimation towards men as well, you know.
This is just a ridiculous attempt at fighting female discrimination without actually putting any effort into it. Women getting molested on trains? Too much effort to go after real molesters, lets just go after that guy that looked at a girl, he's less dangerous. Japan.
Feminism promotes the contradictory worldview that women are strong/competent/equal or superior to men in every way, yet also fragile flowers that'll break at the slightest touch -- therefore, the full force of the law needs to strike down men if they step out of line. It's also about artificially restricting the supply of sex and physical affection to keep men (the chief demanders of said affection) compliant. Giving out free handshakes without requiring economic inputs such as buying multiple crates of AKB48 CDs wrecks the system. Witness also other control attempts such as raising the age of consent to biologically unjustified levels (note the age gap in the article) or trying to introduce "retroactive rape" laws that effectively criminalize all male-female sex if the female later decides it was rape.
No.
You haven't been with other people since like, the 60's, have you?
Feminism isn't the idea that Women should be treated the same as men. That's Egalitarianism. Feminism now is more the idea that Women should be treated the same as men, except where it benefits women.
So things like the idea that men can't be raped (Rape for men and Rape for women legally have different definitions) is a prime example. Another would be that in a Domestic Battery call to police, a woman just has to say that a man hit her and the guy automatically spends a night in jail, regardless of evidence or situation. The same is not true for a man reporting a woman.
Or in Japan, the fact that Women have under-used Women-Only train cars because they demanded segregation away from men on trains because of molestation, but when men demanded Men-Only trains so that they can't be falsely charged with molestation charges, they've been blown off repeatedly.
This is why birthrates are declining...
No kidding! If Japanese people need to be afraid of getting within 20 meters of a young female without being arrested, they might as well give up on real females that they did not met in a marriage interview.
I want to know more - did they talk at all before he shook it? What did they say? He might have been a 'weirdo', or merely a gentleman... shall we ever know?
Maybe Japanese men should stop adding rape to 99% of anime.
Seeing how women are either dumb sluts or submissive retards in anime I don't blame Japanese women for hating Japanese men.
That's not true! Sometimes they're slutty retards and submissive sluts and slutty sluts who submits to retards.
Nice kinky incest fantasy, creep...
Rape is in 99% of anime? Even though most anime male protagonists are too shy/insecure/wimpy to do anything with a female even when she's throwing herself at him, let alone when she's unwilling?
Or is this just the tumblr/SJW/TVTropes "he saw her panties, therefore he raped her! Rape Culture! Triggers! Patriarchy" mindset at work here?
I'm not sure what anime you watch but there are only 4(Berserk, Shigofumi, Perfect Blue, and Denpa Teki no Kanojo) that I can think of that included rape. Even then the victims were not submissive or stupid. Now if you change your comment to molestation rather than rape you'd still be far off but it would be more accurate.
Perhaps you should stop watching animated adaptations of Hentai Manga. It has apparently colored your opinion of the industry.
You may be able to think up of many, But there are way more others out there. If you think of it, it's not really 'Rape' unless it's Forced Sexual Intercourse, Which in anime, is usually only Ecchi scenes.
Hentai is diff from anime. It's porn with anime-style characters. Dat has rape all the time, But anime doesn't really have rape much imo.
What train did you miss. What does anime have to do with this scenario. Most of the train chikan scenes I've seen were in JAV porn.
to sum up everything u guys said, it is less relevant if you consider the research of TV influence on people:
research show that it affect people no doubt but not in long term effect, it only last for a very short time, unless you watched it and run to the train or else it cannot be considered as a correlation
well I do know what you mean by influence, but we are surround by them everywhere and anime/hentai don't especially stand out in this topic
This coming from a couple of the biggest Hentai experts in existence
It‘s that kind of narrow minded thinking that allows you and all your buddies here that you're victims. this article has nothing to do with this guy to any of you. You're all trying to use a situation out of context to validate your fetishes for children and rape. Fantasy or not you're fetishizing victimization of another human being and you are wrong. Would you allow your daughters to be subjected to this kind of behavior. My guess is probably far less worse, you would probably all take turns raping them.
Actually, he is correct about Hentai anime, Anonymous.
I can think of numerous Hentai animes with rape as a prevailing thing, which I do not have a problem with because it is FANTASY not REALITY.
Fantasy does not have to comport to real life morality and anyone who says it does needs a swift boot up the ass at Mach 10.
Outlawing handshaking may not have much of an impact on the birthrate. I believe you may be confused about how babies are made.
I hope my hand doesn't get pregnant since I masturbate...a lot. (I'm masturbating now).
He's suggesting that if men are terrified to approach women because they can have them arrested for being in their general proximity or looking in their general direction, then they're not going to go for things like asking them out on a date.
Not that Babies come from holding hands.
And yet they have huge Fuck Orgies... yeah right..
i know the law is just getting ridculous
So when a JK falls down from a bicycle or stairs and she is having a difficulty standing up DON'T TRY TO HELP JUST IGNORE HER AND DON'T EVEN TALK TO HER SEE IF SHE'S OKAY OR ELSE YOU WILL BE ARRESTED.LOL!
You will be sent straight to hell if you go near her i dare you i double dog dare you....
It's not just JKs. There have been many reported cases of males of all ages around the world going out of their way to avoid helping females or children for fear of being destroyed by authorities and feminists.
A few examples:

This is the world we live in now.
i know shaking my head
The scenario you describe is probably what happens in most cases. For the most part Japanese people pretend each other don't exist when in public.
Sad as it is, it's really bound to happen. And then they won't be able to get a judge to find you guilty for helping a person in need.
Nope, you can insult her and beat her up all you want. Bullying is always the victim's fault.
That's the Asian way anyway, nothing lost.
Technically this is true. Helping strangers is NOT the Asian way.
Certainly in China lol. Matter of fact, silence her just to make sure she doesn't blame you for falling over herself.
She can never be married now...
bahahahaha
She saved her pure and delicate hands for her boyfriend... And this ape of a man SULLIES them!
Her first hand job, stolen...
the end times...
Shaking hands warrant an arrest???!?!!! What has this world come to.......
A load of shit apparently.
You'll notice that one of the comments was, “I want to see what the foreigners say when they hear about this.”
That's because they know how perfunctory hand shaking is in the US. In Japan, however it would be unusual to ask for a handshake from a stranger that you weren't meeting for business purposes.
It's SO obvious that he was trying to come up with a way to touch young women that they would have trouble saying no to.
Thats being judgemental it was just a handshake not ask for a date.
Sometimes when picking up prostitutes or being approached by one, it is common for you or the prostitute to start the conversation with, "Got a light?" or "Got a cigarette?"
And drug dealers will often ask, "Are you alright?" or "You need somethin'?"
Apparently, police in Japan see adults talking to schoolgirls in the same light.
this is why JAPAN women become this low from the top the list. It is bias!
this is why so many JAPAN men getting this miserable. only watch not touching
Okay so it a teacher wanted to have a private tutor for a lesson a girl is failing in then he will be put to jail if they think he is hitting on her all i am saying is they are going way to fast some dudes may pull stunts like that but not all of us guys are like that it just makes me feel like japan is bias agianst men
It's the same as prostitution is Japan...it's legal and ignored as long as the police get their cut...
You don't see people getting arrested for handshaking young girls at AKB's handshaking event :P
Well they are apart of this dumb as hell planet we live on every race has issue.
Japan isn't "this world"
Japan is Japan! They're in a little world of their own.
We're getting to the point that if a girl ever feels uncomfortable, a man will be arrested.
if a man boards the same bus/train/airplane as a woman he does not know he will get arrested, this is japan's future.
It's the future, full stop. Contrary to popular belief, this kind of thing is not a Japan-only issue. It doesn't help that everybody turns a blind eye to it happening in their own countries.
I would not call that a future instead it's the end of civilization.
Isn't that basically what vague terms like "oppressive environment" are supposed to do? The idea is wide "rules" that pretty much break down to discretionary.
Worry about the west some. In Canada, they want to make it so your wife can murder you if she feels you're abusive. I mean, it's not like she can just fucking leave, right? You don't see it, but the west is almost as bad now.
The problem is the Japanese men come off as beta as hell.
Being extremely beta makes you look more creepy than a rapist. Japanese men just have beta body language so most of them seem creepy.
Alphas are treated as deviants and shunned, it would seem.
At least someone gets it.
