Joke #1: The shortage of male porn stars in Japan has gotten so desperate that one official was overheard saying: “If we don’t recruit more men for this critical national service… we’ll have no choice but to go to Plan B… sumo wrestlers.”
Joke #2: Experts have attributed the lack of male porn stars to decreasing birth rates and the fact that all the hot young guys have moved into more traditional Japanese professions such as whale killing.
Joke #3: Economists are calling the shortage of Japanese male porn stars a “golden opportunity” for out-of-work American dudes.
The only catch?
Terminology differences.
In Japan, they don’t call it a pearl necklace… they call it a Pearl Harbor necklace.
