It's Sunday Night
Yuri Fijikawa is a woman politician that needs to stay in politics. It seems women in Japan are still going through many issues Americans have conquered. At least we think we did. There is the Family and Medical Leave Act that allows Mom and Dad time at home after the birth of a child. But, in Japan there is some doubt about society's openness to working mothers and their aspiration to having more than one child and sometimes in their 30s.
Ms. Fijikawa is always in the center of some kind of sex scandal, but, is mostly the sex scandal that wasn't. She gets attention, still today even though allegations of a sex scandal was years ago and it appears she is now engaged. She has once been voted the most beautiful woman politician in the world in a Spanish magazine.
I wish women around the world were taken seriously without being the most sexiest in the world. A title does a lot to get the attention of the media and the electorate. The film of "soft porn" is nto soft porn. Maybe in Japan it is, but, not normally. The most exotic the DVD gets is in this picture where her panties are showing. Taht is PG13 in the US movie rating system.

Aomori - Hachinohe City councilwoman Yuri Fujikawa, 29, (click here) who has been referred to by bloggers as being "too beautiful to be a politician" and who was voted “World’s Most Beautiful Politician” in an online survey held by Spanish newspaper 20 Minutos earlier this year, was caught on camera Thursday walking out of a business hotel in the morning with a 38-year-old Democratic party politician from Iwata, who was likely headed home to his wife and children.
The weekly magazines once before caught Fujikawa hopping into her ex-boyfriend's BMW straight after work, and the politician was quoted in Sankei Sports as saying "He's still a good friend, even now."
When Fujikawa appeared at a movie screening in Hachinohe at the end of May this year, she was sporting a big sparkly ring on her left ring finger. On her blog, she posted, "There are rumors of some hot romance and an engagement..." but she denied her romantic involvement with anyone....

Sayako, who spoke to AFP using a pseudonym, learned her boss had an unwritten policy that experts say is not uncommon in Japan: an informal “pregnancy rota” for employees.
“Why don’t you take a break, you already have one,” her boss said, despite knowing Sayako was so keen to get pregnant that she was seeing a fertility specialist.
“I was so shocked and stunned that I couldn’t answer,” the 35-year-old told AFP.
Sayako’s boss told her that an older newly-wed at her workplace now had priority when it came to having children.
She quit the job and moved to another daycare centre, recently giving birth to her second child.
If she had stayed, “I think I’d have said ‘I’m sorry'” instead of celebrating the birth of the baby.
The issue of “pregnancy rotas” hit the headlines earlier this year when a man wrote about his wife’s experience getting pregnant “out of turn”....
