Well this is a website that an American put up and he writes editorial about his
life in Japan as an English teacher. I am myself was shocked to hear about
"kancho" but then again i think anyone would be. I hope you enjoy. http://outpostnine.com/editorials/teacher.html
Man this scary hilarious stuff! I never really knew that the Japanese were that
scary and this is definitely a side I've never ever heard of. Makes me want to
think twice about going over there.
Interesting stuff
Don't think I'd have the patience and tolerance for that kind of school
Then again I'm not black so they wouldn't be trying to grab me down there at
least.
lol I do hope its just that school or a few in a region =p
maybe they are over exposed to anime... all the perverted ones~~
here a lot of us.. maybe a quarter of the guys and half the girls don't know
whats wet dre.. some don't know whats mastu.... hope its clean enough for this
lol
Love it! Thing is... all of it is true. I teach kids the same age and they are
NOT shy about asking personal things. I've been ask everything from my bra
size, if I've kissed a Japanese man, how many boyfriend's I've had, if I've had
sex with a Japanese man, and more recently, what me and a particular teacher
have planned for Valentine's Day (even through we aren't dating...). Mostly
the girls ask me these questions. These questions seem totally acceptable in
Japanese society. Yes, it happens everywhere in Japan
Elementary school kids are just as bad, but they incorporate touching. I have
never been kancho-ed (almost did though!) but I have had my chest
grabbed/patted/rubbed, and had my butt spanked. Of course, they think it's
fine and cute. Ah, the joys of working with kids.
Understandable! Many are. I don't allow kancho-ing, and I made that perfectly
clear to them. They are good kids, despite being a lot more open about that
sort of thing than US kids...
Guahahaha!! Man... and I thought the students in my previous class were
'disturbed' Of course, I seem to be a magnet for similiar things. I bet if I
went to Japan as an English teacher like him, I'd be in the same scenario
Man, it's almost worth it just to see them doing it haha *Okay,
maybe that's a bit too much*
The kids are just so friendly! When you are *the* foreigner in the town (like I
am...) you get a lot of attention. Like it or not, it's what happens. To the
kids, you may be the only foreigner they interact with, so they think you are
the coolest and are really curious about you.
i don't have pics of the kids doing anything bad, but I have some pics of them.
If you want the link to my photo album, drop me note.
I was expecting the japanese to be pretty strict and disciplinary towards their
children. Is it like this throughout all of Japan's junior high schools?

The kids do have pretty strict schedules. A lot of studying, juku, club
activities... But when they have free time, they let it all out. Some schools
are more strict than others, but my school seems pretty laid back. From talking
to others, it seems that, as long as the kids arent hurting themselves or anyone
and aren't violating major rules of the school, they are allowed to do what they
want. In fact, I think the teachers think it increases interaction between the
students and teachers. It's like one big family sometimes. Obviously, it's
not right to feel harassed, but as I said, it seems to be more acceptable in
Japanese society especially among kids, to ask such questions. I'm sure that if
I complained, they would be stopped, but it doesn't bug me.
Well I suppose in a society where selling worn schoolgirl panties is a way to
make money, this kind of behavior would seem more acceptable. It sounds like
they're more interested in sex than love though Maybe I'm
too old-fashioned?
They have a weird idea of what love is, which seems to be based on dramas and
movies. Sex is prevalent, primarily in magazine form. So, I think that kids at
a younger age are exposed to the body (especially female body) as a sexual, or
atleast beautifyl and desirable, object.
It does, but I've noticed that when they get older, they are very shy about such
things. For example, my 20-something year old friends (and especially the
guys!!) are VERY shy about dating and relationships. I have no idea why; it is
something that will continue to baffle me. Maybe because it's still frowned
upon to be seen holding hands in public?
Kids can get away with a lot. The generally belief is that childhood is the
most fun a person can have in their life, because as they get older, they have
responsibilities. So, there seems to be little disipline. In fact, when kids
start going to school, it becomes the teachers' responsibility to look after
them and give them guidence.

omfg. I only read the first one, "my kids are perverted". I already can't stop laughing. It's freaking hilarious.
Hmm... after reading that.. I want to go to japan even more!
I will become an Elite Kancho Assassin! ^__^
I guess that person liked America more but I will prefer Japan all the time.
Bwaha~ zomg. *bookmark* Thanks for sharing this! It's great.
"Ah, so one might say you are the cows worst enemy." *sniggers~<3* Hilarious!

Lol, I don't have time to read them all now but I'm bookmarking the page to read later, that is excellent ^^ .

You're a sick sick man/woman MadWiz
*shakes head*
iits rather funny I'd say.
but I guess that's just their culture. every country right?
though Japan's kid may been a lil bit too ecchi

Sexual harassment FROM pre-teens
Still disturbing
They don't think it's harassment, though. They get the hint when you tell them to stop it, though.
Meh, if they did that to me, I'd be kanchoing them with a baseball bat.
I'm sensitive about that kind of stuff (physically too)
Understandable! Many are. I don't allow kancho-ing, and I made that perfectly clear to them. They are good kids, despite being a lot more open about that sort of thing than US kids...

Something about seeing a body as a sexual object just makes me shake my head. Sounds like the making of a rapist or abusive husband

It's frowned upon to be seen holding hands in public, but there are kids groping teachers and grabbing groins?
Edit: forgot the question mark
