Kasturi magazine - Kasturi magazine

Japanese: カストリ雑誌 - かすとりざっし
Kasturi magazine - Kasturi magazine
A popular entertainment publication published over a period of several years beginning around 1946. After World War II, speech, which had been restricted until then, became active as if a dam had been released, and anything in print sold at the time. Magazines such as Shincho and Bungei, which had been forced to suspend publication under wartime controls, were relaunched in 1945, and Chuokoron in 1946, while Sekai and Tenbo were also launched in the same year. In this environment, castration magazines stood out. These could be said to be a sudden outburst of sexual liberation that had been suppressed during the war, and most of their content centered on sexual customs and sold on their strong stimulation.

Japanese:
1946年ごろから数年間にわたって発行された大衆的娯楽読物の俗称。第2次世界大戦後,それまで統制されていた言論活動はせきを切ったように活発になり,当時は活字であればなんでも売れた。戦中の統制下で休刊を余儀なくされていた雑誌《新潮》《文芸》が45年に,《中央公論》が46年に復刊され,同年には《世界》《展望》なども創刊されている。このような状況の中で目だったのがカストリ雑誌である。これらは戦中抑圧されていた性の解放が一気に噴出したものといえ,内容はほとんどが性風俗を中心とし,刺激の強さを売物にした。
