Japan Crushes One Woman’s Beautiful, Beautiful Dream

The land of the rising sun is apparently in the business of crushing dreams and arresting beautiful dreamers who send 3d models of their vagina to people online. That's what happened to Japanese artist Rokude Nashiko this past week when she was arrested and charged with breaking obscenity laws.

According to Buzzfeed (link below) was busted for soliciting funding for her kayak based on a mold of her vagina.

Rokude Nashiko, whose real name is Megumi Igarashi, was crowdfunding her dream of making a kayak that was shaped like her vagina when she was reportedly arrested for breaking an obscenity law. Those who contributed to the “Pussy Boat” crowdfunding project could get 3D scanned data of Rokude Nashiko’s privates. She was arrested based on a law in Japan that makes it illegal to sell, distribute, or display “obscene objects.”

This isn't her first rodeo, so to speak, as she has come under fire in the past for her other vagina-based works like the "Pussy lamp" and "Pussy smartphone case." "She also has ambitions to make a pussy bed, a pussy door, and a pussy car."

If you want to get involved, you can go to Change.org to sign a petition asking them to change their obscenity laws.
