First of all, as you can see from my style, I have no discriminatory feelings toward LGBT or any other or even racial groups. I, as well as many Japanese people, do not care about the gender or characteristics of the LGBT people around me, but respect and build relationships with them as a person with one identity, no different from others. There is no discrimination against LGBT people in Japan. This is because Japan's religious beliefs have always been based on the concept of 8 million gods, rather than monotheism, and the culture of tolerance toward others has always been deeply rooted in the Japanese people. As you will see when you actually come and live in Japan, most LGBT people live in the Japanese culture as it is now, without any unjust discrimination. What is the problem now in Japan, The problem now in Japan is that some activists (who are mostly after new public money and interests, not LGBT people) are loudly promoting the LGBT discrimination culture in Japan as if it is widespread, and trying to force the passage of LGBT legislation without sufficient discussion. This bill is opposed by a number of LGBT organizations. This is because there is no discrimination in Japanese society without such a law. If this law is passed, transgender women, the "T" in LGBT, who are male in body and mind, will be able to lie and say that they are transgender women, They risk not being arrested if they appear in women's locker rooms, restrooms, and public bathrooms and commit sex crimes, In fact, such crimes began to occur even before the bill was passed. Without a reliable way to distinguish real transgender women from fake sex offenders, it is women and children who will be at risk if this law is enacted. In addition, as such impersonated sex offenders become more and more prominent, the unspoken social rumors against LGBT parties (especially transgender women), who are not related to sex offenders at all and live peacefully, will become stronger. There is a concern that the law, which was originally intended to deepen the understanding of LGBT parties, will, on the contrary, damage the image and position of LGBT parties through reputational damage. Against this background, we have indicated our opposition to the bill. We are concerned about this bill, which is full of holes that only benefit reserve sex offenders, instead of being respectful to LGBT parties, women, children, and all people of good will. I apologize to those who have been misled by the little information I have received because of our different languages, cultures, and places of living. As stated above, I have no discriminatory feelings or aversion toward LGBT people, but I do have hatred and contempt for all sexual predators who abuse the position of good LGBT people and those who defend them, so please do not misunderstand me. |
