Sexual harassment is a hot issue across the world and Japan is not an exception. As I wrote in another post, Junichi Fukuda, the top bureaucrat of the Finance Ministry, resigned over a scandal which is now famous for the remark "Can I touch your boobs?” He still didn't understand that what he had done was wrong. Another man didn't understand it, either. Seeing female diet members holding #Me Too sings, LDP lawmaker Takashi Nagao said that they didn't have to worry about being sexually harassed because he would never harass them. One more example. A female reporter interviewed about Fukuda said that she hadn't been asked if he could touch her boobs, but had been told that she couldn't get married because "you know why."
So, why does sexual harassment occur? The following are possible reasons:
(1) They don't think it wrong, because they have something mentally wrong with them or are not intelligent enough to understand human rights;
(2) They know sexual harassment is wrong, but are not intelligent enough to understand that sexual harassment "is said" to be wrong and can't imagine that doing sexual harassment would ruin their career;
(3) They know sexual harassment is wrong, but think it's not a big deal because everyone does it.
(4) They are aliens.
They should be fired anyway.
