Current Imported Summary

The November 1947 Kitan Club is an early postwar issue whose editorial identity is already recognizable as a mixture of sexological curiosity, ethnographic speculation, urban reportage, erotic humor, medical discussion, folklore, and accounts of unconventional sexuality. The cover identifies the magazine simply as Kitan Club and prominently marks the issue with 11, while the contents page establishes a dense miscellany rather than a single thematic special issue. The magazine moves rapidly among serious explanatory articles, anecdotal collections, comic observation, sensational reportage, and short columns. The opening article, Worship of the Genitals and the Sexual Spirit: A Study of Folk Toys, Part 1, by Sakai Sanjin, approaches sexual symbolism through folk religion and material culture. It discusses phallic and genital imagery, fertility worship, ritual objects, and the relationship between sexuality and religious belief. This is followed by Utsumi Yūzō's Collection of Erotic Curiosities from Various Provinces, a gathering of regional sexual customs, stories, and unusual practices. Nakahara Harumi's The Frappé Dance That Intoxicates Spectators shifts toward modern entertainment, describing an eroticized dance spectacle and its visual appeal. Several shorter pieces address fetishism, medicine, and popular sexual knowledge. A discussion of rubber raincoats treats attraction to waterproof clothing as an erotic peculiarity, while Obstetrician-Gynecologist's View of the Times: ABC collects observations derived from medical practice. The Science of Kissing and the Oral Cavity examines kissing from physiological and hygienic perspectives, and a neighboring article considers erotic pictures and censorship or prohibition. Other short pieces deal with false circumcision, contemporary dating, nightlife, theatrical sexuality, and humorous erotic incidents. The middle and later portions increasingly emphasize urban and narrative material. Shanghai's Den of Vice presents Shanghai through the vocabulary of vice tourism and cosmopolitan sexual danger. The magazine also includes reports on Osaka nightlife and pleasure quarters, an essay on the predicament of unmarried women over thirty, and the supernatural story The Fox Spirit and Fox Possession. Erotic comic storytelling appears in the rakugo-style Katsunotsugi, while Curious Talk: An Object for Personal Use examines intimate objects and bodily practices. Human Flesh considers the cultural and gustatory meanings attached to human versus animal flesh. The closing pages continue the magazine's fascination with modern sexual behavior. The back-street column Floating-World Patterns: The City's Back Alleys presents anecdotal encounters and illicit urban situations; Y-Section Discussions offers short provocative observations on sexuality; and the final substantial essay examines precocious girls as represented in erotic books of earlier periods. Editorial notes, advertisements, subscription information, and the colophon close the issue. Collectively, the magazine documents a transitional moment in early postwar popular sex culture, where folklore, medicine, fetishism, prostitution, modern urban life, erotic publishing, and comic storytelling were being assembled into the distinctive editorial mixture that would characterize Kitan Club.
