Shūkan Asahi and the Mankini

The Japanese weekly rag Shūkan Asahi (週刊朝日), a popular general-interest magazine, weighs in on the Borat mankini being a hit in Japan with the full-page advertisement below. The Shūkan Asahi has been published since 1922 by The Asahi Shimbun, one of Japan’s leading newspapers.

The format of the publication usually combines soft news like scandals and affairs, some international rumours and relations, an occasional golf tip, a few comics that are a little erotic in nature and swimsuit models (usually on the front and back of the mag). The publication is generally targeted to Japanese salarymen.

As you can see in the image below provided by nateola from PinkNihon, it is full of high-quality content. This particular image is an advertisement that promotes a Japanese Adult Video (JAV) about a promiscuous orgy with the tagline “Sex–it’s supposed to be raunchy”. Here is the NSFW link to the vid イグイグ大乱交 (don’t click if you are easily offended).

Earlier this year, Jensen independently published The Japanese-English Guide to Sex, Kink and Naughtiness; perhaps one of the most comprehensive books bridging sexual terms between the Japanese and English languages.

Greetings fellow readers of loneleeplanet!  A few articles ago, the Borat mankini entry generated some interesting buzz. Considering the topic of the article was around risque swimsuits in Japan, readers might also find the Japanese word munechira of interest.

What is munechira?

Munechira (むねチラ, 胸チラ), pronounced “moo neh cheeh lah”, is a portmanteau blending two words: ‘mune’ and ‘chira’. It is a voyeuristic term that means an unexpected teasing flash of the breast. It can be an accidental glimpse or an intentional display. Either way, the very subjective nature of the cause makes it difficult for onlookers to feign disgust or joy at the occasion.

The term munechira is one of those interesting Japanese words, like the word bukkake, which uniquely expresses particular concept that is sexual in nature with risque connotations.
