Organization for pornography and sexual exploitation survivors (PAPS) aims to debate, to investigate, and to consider the variety of human-rights violations and sexual violence issues which are occurring through or affected by the production, distribution and consumption of pornography. We put our aim to appeal this issue to society widely as well as to carry out the support for the victims who are being hurt by the harms of pornography. People such as workers of women’s protection facilities, child home institutions, school social workers, professionals of university education, writers, lawyers who are knowledgeable in matters of sexual violence and sexual harm, supporting staffs of human-trafficking victims are participating here at PAPS. We make use of our special knowledge of each field in tackling the various matters of sexual violence.

Ms. Kazuna Kanajiri

I’m involved in consultation support at PAPS. By the advent of the internet society, a different phase of sexual violence and sexual harm is now occurring. I am confronting various issues of “digital sexual violence” such as consulting support for those who are facing difficult issues in adult video appearance and the sex industry, as well as consulting support for revenge-pornography/child-pornography. I am from a totally different field (network and systems engineer) from consulting support. I want to make use of my background knowledge to tackle this issue.

Sub-Chief Director

Mr. Hiroshi Nakasatomi   (Teacher at University)

 Among the activities of PAPS is the investigation of the actual conditions of the harms of pornography, and also outreach,  consultation and support activity for victims. I am an amateur in consultation and support, but I want to endeavor to investigate the actual conditions of the harms and outreach towards society. Also, adult videos as sexual exploitation and the sex industry are the responsibility of the side of people who exploit, and that is to say: men. I want to work on this matter from the point of view of adult videos and the sex industry as an “issue for men”.

Ms. Chiyoko Yokota (Director of the women’s protection facility Izumi-ryo)

Among the users of women’s protection facilities, there are women who were forced to see pornography by perpetrators. If they don’t comply with demands for humiliating sexual acts, they receive violence. There are increasing materials of the cruelty of tormenting women in the films of pornography. Women are forced to do the same things as those videos. Women are being placed in situations of domination. The activities of PAPS don’t overlook such things, but confronts the problems directly. Earnestly believing that someday this trend will change the society!

本業では人と関わる事があっても表面上の綺麗な部分し か見られません。社会福祉に携わることで生活の中の苦しみや、楽しみなど普通では見えてこない人間の生の世界に触れることができました。縁あってぱっぷすと関わる事になり、その世界がさらに広がりました。認識不足であるかもしれないけれど、その中で少しずつ学ばせていただきます。そういった意味で応援を続けていきたい と思います。

日本国外の観点から見て、いかにNPO法人PAPSの社会活動が重要であるかを痛感いたします。社会にポルノが蔓延する問題は国際レベルの現象です。ですから、市民団体が国境を越えて共同して問題に取り組まなければ、ポルノ産業の被害者が増える一方でしょう。海外から見ても、PAPSの活動の重要性は際立っており、注目しています。お互いに協力し合って活動を進めていきましょう。
