Japanese idol culture is the toxic inverse of the West's slut culture, where even having a committed relationship is seen as negative.

Part of the reason is obviously marketing teams wanting to sell these idols as available and that 'maybe' they'll choose a fan one day (they never will, or at least highly unlikely). Other side is also easier to control when they can't rely on someone else as then you can have them constantly performing in places with few brakes.

This and black companies (sometimes one and the same) really need to go. Because both are toxic and detrimental to men developing relationships.
