- Women from weak and poor countries often face exploitation by men of other ethnicities… Yet historically, Korean women faced more cross-ethnic impregnation than Japanese women… Analysis of Korean men’s Y chromosomes reveals more than 40% have ancestral chromosomal ties to China (implying past cross-ethnic inseminations led to genetic influx from the continent)

- What’s China’s standing in sex services and technology we all know Korean-fast and good quality. Japanese-late but phenomenal quality. Chinese-fast but inferior quality. In the case of tourists, they’ll definitely feel deceived.

- Incest fuckers during Moon Jae-in’s reign were conveniently dealt with by the Women’s Department and police. Back then there were many charges pinned down for settlements.

- He was a gummoied Korean-ho-ho, if it was during Moon’s feminist shout, he would have been baited with concocted records.

- If it was during the Moon administration, he would have been detained regardless; barely made it by a few years gap luckily

- If a sex case arose during the women-dreaming-china traitorous Moon reign, the women’s department raved first in the police department. Detectives fabricated with CCTV off, obtained fingerprints or stamps under coercion or deceit, then ignored. Clothing department initiates legal threats. After being coerced in a day or two to pay the woman a settlement and get released without a job. But that is of Korean origin. The feminist administration finished, he’s lived with foreign nationality.

- So illegal incest porn of perverse Moon Jae-in is okay without scrutiny, but Japanese comics should be regulated? What about all those Shota gay Japanese comics nobody mentions? They even sell manhwa with gay content on Naver Webtoon to feminist women?
