Everyday Life of the Japanese: A Look Behind the Curtains

The book you hold in your hands is dedicated to the sexual culture of the Japanese - a topic that has long provoked conflicting emotions in the Western world. It is based on the work "Naked Japan: The Erotic Tradition of the Land of the Rising Sun," written by Alexander Kulanov in 2004, which has been repeatedly revised and supplemented. Over time, readers' interest in the topic has not waned, but many aspects related to the modern tradition of sex in Japan have undergone significant, sometimes unexpected changes. Therefore, it is time to peer once again behind the curtain of the Japanese bedroom. The presented edition is not a cultural, psychological, ethnographic, or any other type of study, although the author was offered to present it as a dissertation on the topic "Genesis and Transformation of Japan's Sexual Culture." This is primarily an attempt to understand why this country develops in terms of eroticism and sex in this way and not otherwise, to figure out why its people behave in intimate matters in this way and not otherwise. And of course, to think about what awaits all of us in the near future.
