電車での痴漢発見したら、黙らないでなんとかしましょう。
以下のポールでは「女性専用車が存在することに」「驚いた」「驚かない」と外国人に答えてもらっている。

Wow... They didn't help her at all? What a buncha douches. I think that's a good idea that there's a women only carriage. I bet some guy will dress up like a woman to get on that carriage.

Even though that sounds totally bizarre to somewhat, it doesn't really surprise me. It sounds that women will be safe now, now that they're traveling on a *coughsexistcough* specific train. :P But that kinda sucks that no one would help the poor girl even though she kicked that guys rear pretty good. What a couple of douches.

Before I die, I'd like to ass-grope a woman on a train. Just once. These new carriages aren't helping me one bit.

It's about time. Many of my female friends living over there, have complained numerous times about being groped. Sometimes I find Japanese culture to be paradoxial. It's like that first scene on the train in the show Densha Otoko (Train Man). Even if somebody is doing something morally wrong, everyone does there best to ignore it even when they should be standing up and putting a stop to it.

Nothing really seems to happen when a guy gets on (if there isn't a train guy directing men away from the car entrance). I never noticed that I was on one of those cars until I got off the train.

yea, they have these trains in brazil also. its funny that they just ignore it, when i girl gets molested... i mean could you rob half a train, with the other half sitting there hoping you dont rob them. or maybe your a junkie and you dicide to cook up some dope on the train, i wonder what they would do?? they would probably call the police, i mean if you dont grab a boobie. sorry for the rant i just think its funny.

we also have that "women only" part of the train. there was one time when a guy mistakenly (?) board there, the train did not move until he went off and transfered. much embarassment for him, much hassle for us passengers. but i did not say its a bad thing, i think it also has some benefits

I'm not surprise because it's difficult sometimes for women to stay alone in the underground at night. In france in the underground you chose your wagon for climbing when you take the subways during the night, because smoteimes there's more strange people.

Oh yea.. i accidentally got on the women only carriage once in Taiwan... (in the middle of the afternoon) I thought its a prank so I didn't get off or anything... and there are other males on that carriage... but I think it's totally crazy and politically incorrect... Does that mean XXs have more chance to get a seat when it comes to peak hours?!?!

Judging by the "dont make a fuss" and the amount of new Chikan AV titles being made every now and then. To me "Women only carriage" is definitely not a long term remedy. But atleast thats comes across as an acknowledgemnet from the Japanese themselves that something has to be done.

Hum..."women only" is a bit strange but eh if it works thats cool. In Portugal if a guy tries something he will get more than a arm lock..lol..And things like call the police never work because people don't give a damn until it happens to them.The brother of my girlfriend gave one hell of a punch in the mouth of a criminal..lol..No need for the police, the guy gave what he stole to the old lady and crawled out of the BUS.I think women need to take classes of self defense and actually kick and punch really hard some of those guys :-D.

Women only trains are typically enforced if the one of the train staff happen to walk by as they often do. They dont arrest you or anything, my friend was riding one once and one of the staff just leaned down and whispered "This is the women only train!". My opinion of the whole matter is that its a very sad way to prevent that type of crime. They merely need to create much harsher penalties and make a few high profile examples to ward off anymore funny business. The worst part of it is that most women I have talked to in the past say they hate riding in their special car. Apparently the other women tend to do 'rude things' such as eat loudly and gossip and such, at least from what I've been told. And it seems to be true, because whenever I ride during times where the rule is in effect, 80% of the women cram themselves into the normal cars, and I often glance over at the women car and its a ghost town. If they are going to force men to other cars, they should force single women into their own!

Longtime lurker, first-time poster... When I was in Tokyo last September, me and my girlfriend accidentally jumped in one of those carriages (since it was less packed - figures). The whole place went silent, apart from the disapproving hisses, and it took me a few seconds to realize what was wrong - anyway, for those who want to knwo what happens in such a case: the train does NOT leave (double faux pas: you also cause a delay !) and some uniformed guy (railway security, I reckon) jumps in and points angrily at that very same sign in the picture (although by that time, I had already understood that this was one of the no-men-carriages (reminder: they're usually the last two)

I think its a great idea for a women only car if there are that many weirdos who fondle women or children on trains. Lets face it. If a person's only means of transportation is getting on a train where they've had an uncomfortable experience, than the least they can do is have the seperate cars. They obviously need to have more police or security at train stops so people can point out the pervs. Although I do agree that in the case of Nick from Antwerp, they definitely should have been more tolerant of him and his girlfriend if they can't read or speak japanese... how are they supposed to know??

Here in Holland, "women only carriage" doesn't exist. Mainly because dutch people aren't afraid to punch the perverts. Moreover they will help other s to punch...*be it for help or the fun in it...*
(ID #54004) Posted on 2007/08/10 10:17
Where I live, the local train system isn't that widely used...so it's never really that crowded enough for someone to "pull a move off." Not to mention, even if someone did, I'm sure that person would be kicked off, since that "type of perversion" isn't really that tolerated. They would also have to go to court I guess?
