What a loser.
InspectorGadget
Surely he could have bought this stuff on the internet?
Kabuto
No, no! Our man was a supplier!

Everyone needs a hobby!
LOOOOL!
GO JAPAN!

Well, at least it wasn't knickers he was stealing.

"Collecting women's uniforms is my hobby. I smelled it and wore it myself."
Collecting is a hobby. Sniffing and wearing is a fetish.
And, stealing is a crime.
Concerned Citizen
Why risk arrest, humiliation and losing career, friends and potential lovers by doing such thing? Sad.
Fighto!
More like a prize-winning creep.
Bye-bye whatever "career" he had!

I can’t imagine this having a positive impact on his career.
But since his fetish is now public, perhaps he should just embrace it and become that talented Japanese pianist who shows up in public wearing cabin attendant aprons. In other words, he could boldly accept who he is with a smile.
Or he can bow, offer superficial apologies, and vow to prevent his mind from wandering by devoting even more time to the works of Chopin — all the while covertly entertaining his apron fetish in the confines of a windowless room.
Good luck to him whatever path he chooses.

May I suggest he perform Gilbert and Sullivan's HMS Pinafore?
Interesting fact.
Aprons were called naprons,as they were strapped around the nape of the neck, originally.

“stealing the apron of the cabin attendant in her 40s”
Just wondered. If he’d known the apron belonged to a 40 something cabin attendant, would he have stolen it?
Fighto!
I guess at least some of these repressed creeps have a thing for actual women, rather than school kids? A small plus for him I guess.

I always wonder why the police release these embarrassing quotes. If it is to deter would-be criminals, it certainly doesn't seem to be working.

I get it, there are all kinds of fetishes and most of them probably know no borders.... but how the hell are there so many men in Japan in particular with this fetish for stealing women's undies/aprons/nurse uniforms and other articles of clothing? I gave up long ago on trying to understand the sex appeal of it all, but I'm still very curious of why it's such a thing in Japan. The fact that it's common knowledge among women that you don't hang your undies up on a clothesline is quite telling in itself.

How do you know there wouldn't be twice as many if they weren't exercising this deterrance?
Garthgoyle
Nope. Brand new doesn't come with the already used smell... He smells it and wears it. He admitted to that. Like, dang.

Calling that a prize winner is a bit of a stretch.

I bought a JAL apron at a flea market many years ago, It was a great novelty, with its little pocket for bottle openers and the like.

It's part of the culture that the adult entertainment industry controls. Have a look at what's available (most notably - school girls) and you can see why these fetishes are considered to be normal and in some views, acceptable.

You feel the same way when a guy dresses up as a girl?
It would make sense if you did.

But the mail order stuff won't have that authentic flight attendant smell ................. O_O

I'll bet you looked good in it too ^_^

Another form of mental illness

He just won another prize - a prized idiot.
Next time ask if you can take one.

Arnold Layne strikes again.
Or boys' socks like that creep in my hometown 20 years ago.
He could've/should've been buying this stuff himself if it's his 'hobby'. SMH.
