CAGED PROSTITUTES -- The Lowest Order of the Japanese Brothel System (#1) or, WOULD YOU SELL YOUR CHILD TO A WHORE HOUSE ?
Image by Okinawa Soba
Such a scene as this ca.1890s image of caged prostitutes being gawked at does not exist in Japan anymore. However, there are PLENTY of places in Japan today where, like Amsterdam in Holland, the women "willingly" put themselves on decorative display in whole districts dedicated to their trade.
In spite of that, the circumstances surrounding the entry of adult women into modern-day Japanese prostitution is a far cry from the social and cultural situation that put these women into their cages during the Meiji-era time of this photograph.
