It seems the Japanese have developed a manner in which divorce can be quickly settled by luring the men into clandestine affairs and documenting those affairs for the future court proceedings.  There are wakaresaseya, professional break up artists, who work for local detective agencies.  These women are hired by wives who wish to entrap their mates producing proof of their infidelities which will result in favorable divorce settlements for the wives.

In Japan women initiate the divorces more than the men. Twenty seven percent of the marriages end in divorce. In the past however unless the women were able to show that their husband cheated or mistreated them in some horrible manner, they would be awarded a pittance.  Now, with this service, they’re able to ‘arrange’ these affairs as proof positive that they are deserving of a fair settlement for being ‘wronged’.

The professional breaks up artists are not seen as prostitutes although they do have sex with their clients.  They instead provide a service that fills a niche in a society that doesn’t allow its women to divorce equitably so they had to create this method to attempt to do so.  Now I ask, is America not too far behind?
