Sexual and Reproductive Health

•  Rape and molestation are sex crimes under Japanese law.

•  You can decide when, where, who with, and what kind of sexual relations you have.
•  Sexual acts that you do not want, especially in situations where it’s hard to say “no,” are considered sexual violence.
（These are referred to as the crimes of non-consensual sexual intercourse and non-consensual indecent acts.）
•  Sexual violence occurs regardless of age or gender.
•  In any situation, it is not your fault if you have been harmed.
•  It also occurs between people we know and between married couples or partners (See 3.7).
•  Sex crimes and sexual violence are absolutely unacceptable.
•  If you are distressed or anxious, do not suffer alone, and instead, seek advice.
