No profession is immune to the groping epidemic of Japan.

That's why I keep my daughters out of Japan. You might think, 'it's okay my daughter has never been groped', but how would you know? How many girls actually report this kind of embarrassing experience to anyone?

I absolutely agree!

I expect the steady comment “Japan is 100% safe. Safer than my country……”.

Japan is 100% safe if you are male. Not so safe if you are a girl. Perverts are present in any part of society, especially in key roles such as teachers and police (just search in the "Crime" section of Japan Today). Perverted behaviors are not hampered here and are, on the contrary, tacitly encouraged since girls are sexually exploited, even very young girls, in the Japanese entertainment industry (manga, anime, idols…..).

Japan is great for many things, but it is not a wonderland for girls.

I guess almost all the foreign residents in Japan come from the dangerous Narcos areas of Colombia, or the most infamous slums of their countries, since they always depict Japan as heaven and the world outside Japan as hell.

Where they live, no risk for teenagers ?

In the EU (where I come from), in NZ, in Australia (where I lived) it is more probable to be robbed while traveling on a train, but very very less probable to be sexually harassed.
