Contraception

Tokyo, Japon, November 2017

The Japanese society has an annoying relationship with many subjects that touch on intimacy. Among these, contraception. For although abortion was authorized early, the pill was only put on the market in 1999 and is still used very little, like the IUD. The Buddhist clergy and the medical profession put all their weight to prevent the holding of real sex education classes, leaving young people to document themselves as best they can on the subject.
