<p>2.5% of fifth graders in Japan play console games that include sexual and erotic themes. That’s according to a survey done by the National Congress Parents and Teachers Associations of Japan. What’s more amazing is that 34.9% of the children reported that they have email friends that their parents don’t know about. Not surprisingly they send 51 emails every day to each other.</p>
<p><span id="more-156"></span></p>
<p>In a recent <a href="http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/05/18/technology/arcades.php" target="_blank">survey</a> in Japan about video games, it was discovered that the children doesn’t go to arcade halls, and just stay at home to play their consoles. The children were very convincing for why they prefer the home consoles.</p>
<blockquote><p>Arcades are expensive, noisy and filled with cigarette smoke,&#8221; said 15-year-old Gene Sato, adding that he would rather save his money to go to a theme park. &#8220;Besides, I can stay home and play NBA Live on PlayStation 3.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Or maybe it’s just because they can’t watch their favorite erotic games in the arcade?</p>

You may not be familiar with the strange and weird coffee drinking custom of this country &#8211;  But you can simply guess that in this cafes the coffee is served by waitresses that are dressed as maids. If you want to read more about it, check out <a href="http://www.michaelmckinlay.com/2008/04/03/maid-cafes-in-japan/" target="_blank">Michael McKinley</a> reports on this bizarre phenomenon.</p>
<p>If maid cafes are new to you (and even if they don’t) you might be surprised to know that the Japanese have taken it a step ahead. The new trend is drag maid cafes where men are dressed as maids.</p>
<p><span id="more-139"></span></p>
<p>They are dressed as women and greet customers as women, but they are not. The cafes can be found in the Akihabara districts in Tokyo – which the technology district. The neighborhood attracts the Japanese otaku, the young people that are admiring anime, manga and video games. And it seems that are willing to pay more for this service.</p>
