In one of those rare moments where you rekindle your faith in humanity, Kumiko Yamada of the Japanese Women’s Institute Of Contemporary Media Culture has stood up to defend the usage of sexual violence in media with a refreshingly cogent and sane set of arguments.
In recent weeks, the United Nations has been making moves to propose the banning of Japanese media that depicts sexual violence toward women, the specific media in question being that of manga, anime and videogames. Their argument is that these media are in breach of human rights, as they sometimes focus on the abuse of women.
However, there are some obvious problems with this kind of cultural policing and it seems that Yamada has stridently stepped in to explain why this approach to Japanese media is entirely wrong-headed.
Thanks to RyanoftheStars over at Reddit, we have a very thorough translation of Yamada’s statement. The two main points she makes are very sensible about the banning of these types of media, the first point being that, “The so-called sexual violence in manga and video games is a made-up thing and as such does not threaten the rights of actual people; therefore, it is meaningless in protecting the rights of women.”
Whereas the second point states that, “In Japan, and especially when it comes to manga, these are creative fields that women themselves cultivated and worked hard by their own hand to create careers for themselves. If we were to “ban the sale of manga that includes sexual violence,” it would do the opposite and instead create a new avenue of sexism toward women.”
Considering that Yamada herself appears to be a graphic designer, she’s clearly coming at this from a both a professional and creative standpoint. The institute is also a vocal independent research and study group made up of voluntary members.
This is one of the first times that Japanese women with a cultural stake in the matter have made their voices heard in this debate. It will be interesting to see if their Western counterparts will listen.
No doubt, the independence of this group may be called into question but does the truth have to come from an authority figure before it is valid?
Yamada’s statement is worth a read in its entirety, as she makes a very strong argument on why media needs to be expressively free. As she is also a woman, her viewpoint is also particularly noteworthy as the UN’s proposals are a misguided attempt to try and defend her rights.
As she very sanely concludes, “There is nothing to be gained from regulating fictional sexual violence. However, while you’re trying to fix the rights of fictional characters, you’re leaving the human rights of real women in the real world left to rot. As well, in Japan, the entire reason we have a media genre such as manga that developed to take on themes such as the sexual exploitation of women came from an attitude to tolerate “drinking the pure and the dirty without prejudice.” It’s because we had the freedom to express our views and with that to express the view of a world of humans that live and die, that there are pure and wonderful things and dirty and nasty things mixed with each other.”
“Manga is a field where women have put in their hard work and effort to cut forward paths and cultivate a place of their own. We believe that in order to protect this place from being trampled on, it will need our continued hard work to pass it on to the next generation, and it is this effort that will link to the greater freedom and rights of women.”
