Women in Tokyo strongly favor having single-sex train cars on public transport, according to a poll of five of the world’s biggest commuter cities released Thursday, despite such policies facing growing criticism.
A Thomson Reuters Foundation survey of 1,000 female travelers in Tokyo, London, New York City, Cairo and Mexico City found less than half supported women-only sections on trains and buses to boost safety.
But nearly 70 percent of women in Tokyo backed the single-sex carriages introduced in the city in 2000 to combat a phenomenon commonly known as chikan, or groping, on trains. More than half of women surveyed in the city said safety was their top transport concern, but seven in 10 were confident they could now travel without being subjected to sexual harassment or violence.
Women in Cairo and Mexico City also said safety was their biggest concern about using public and private transport, and 60 percent and 55 percent respectively said women-only sections on trains and buses would improve safety.
But less than 30 percent of women were in favor of women-only carriages in New York and London, where the time and cost of travel were seen as more pressing issues than safety.
Tokyo has been struggling to stop sexual harassment on trains, where police figures found more than two-thirds of 1,750 groping or molestation cases reported in the city in 2017 took place on trains or in stations.
Women-only carriages provide female passengers with a “peace of mind,” said a spokeswoman for the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, which runs one of the capital’s two main subway networks.
But the policy has been criticized, including by a group of men who boarded a women-only carriage this year to protest what they called a discriminatory practice.
Some men have claimed they were falsely accused of groping, putting them at risk of losing their jobs, and sought out protection such as signing up for insurance which offers legal services in such situations.

There doesn’t need to be single sex public transport in the west because white men aren’t perverted like other races are. That’s why I don’t want any immigration into western countries. They can be perverted in their countries although I feel bad for the women. Indians are the worst though
Benjamin Torres
OR, Western women are whores and wish niggers would run a train on them inside the train

I feel bad for them because of what they have to go through but I feel bad that they didn't think of all the lesbians. lesbians molest on trains too you know. Maybe it's a good trade? I don't know.
Kayden Gonzalez
I think it has more to do with the nip's 'don't cause waves' culture. Over there kicking up a fuss about getting your ass grabbed is dishonurubu. In the west women that do it are championed and given pity shekels. Of course less western women want to cut off an avenue for free attention and money.

n the sense that Japanese law enforcement and politicians don't want to admit there's a problem, giving molesters something akin to the run of the place. Report a rape or sexual assault in Japan and you're liable to be told, "No, that didn't happen. Are you sure? Rapes just don't happen here." They don't want the shame of those stats, they don't want to acknowledge there's a problem, so they pretend it doesn't exist.
Even if there's a lower number of these sickos in Japan than other countries, per capita, if they so seldom get arrested for doing what they do, that means they're out there performing more acts than a country that actually manages to incarcerate even its greater number of baddies.
One (Japanese) said she took the guy by the wrist, held on until next stop and brought him to a train official’s office and told the official what happened. Said the groper (of course) vehemently denied the accusation and the official didn’t even try to do anything about it.

Oh fuck off nigger I’m sorry you’ve been rejected by white women that it’s turned you into a faggot 😭

Those muslim women sure are better whores. They are very submissive.
What about lesbian molestors? I like to watch those Japanese 'JAV' documentaries to get an idea of what Japan is like and there seems to be a lot of lesbian schoolgirl train molestors out there.
Jordan Fisher
This. Police in Japan is notorious for ignoring crimes (which is how they can claim "low" crime rate).

woman like to play hard not enough for healthy japanese man

People with more humility understand the importance of protecting your body and don't go pretending to be equal and and putting themselves in more dangerous situations like it makes them better more moral people.
Aaron Sullivan
This seems like simultaneous libel against men and theft of men's money.
Camden Wright
Check out DEADBUG, I don't know if he's banned again yet but, Japanese men are real scum.
Matthew Morgan
Looked him up on Vimeo. I couldn't stand watching 30 seconds of his videos due to his THIS IS ART edgyness being shoved down my throat.
I want information in a documentary, not a performance art piece.
Grayson Martin
Ive read, and heard from friends that Japan has been (along with every country in the world worth going to) consistently degrading culturally in the last decade. Particularly with the youth.
I don't think this train thing is part of it. It was probably always like that. They objectify women and its very deeply ingrained in their culture. But is that a bad thing?
Drop your bias against how (((horrible))) the OP sounds to you and weigh the figure vs crime stats in Japan. I wont fully defend the gooks, but "sexual assault" aka "the back of a guys hand touched my butt once" is only as big a deal as the victim is taught to make it.
Thats not to say its OK for men to grope women at any chance, at all but I think you'll find the reasonable and likely middle ground
Chase Bennett
Dogs are better than white women. That's an awfully low bar.
Aiden Smith
Lots of cute girl jap teachers with big dicks that prey on innocent schoolgirls, shooting out buckets of cum, too.
Justin Gutierrez
Yes, make is easier for the molesters and rapists to drop in and do the damage they want to do by having no men around to guard you.
Hue. Hue. Hue.
Leo Rivera
Hot.
Robert Foster
Yeah. Because… … there is this thing called "evidence"
Jayden Stewart
Men and women are different. This is one area where trads and feminists can agree. Only retarded egalitarians (or criminal perverts) would oppose this.
Joseph Sanchez
Western women are pretty bad but the Japs really aren't much better.

I enjoy murdering and running people over in games, I guess I want to do it irl too. this argument is fucking autistic user, if you want to prove a point about women being shit go find an example of women ruining everything they touch

mfw americans are so retarded that they think islam has any redeeming qualities whatsoever
Colton Sullivan
Even better idea: two separate subway systems; one for men and one for women
Nolan Cruz
mfw these gropers are fucking gaijins that need to be dumped in Tokyo Bay but diverstein goldenberg wont be having that.
Robert Martinez
It’s more than that though. You guys hate on women but I don’t feel hate for men, I feel afraid of men.
