PAPS has developed a new leaflet on sexually transmitted infections (STIs) for young women in Tokyo’s downtown areas. While most STI materials focus on medical facts such as symptoms, transmission, and treatment, this leaflet addresses the deeper issue: why young people are unfairly forced to bear the risks. By deliberately using the slang term “oji”—a word young people use to describe exploitative older men—it exposes the structures of prostitution and sexual exploitation.
