About me

I’m Namapo-chan!

Living in Japan. I got out of prostitution through the welfare system.
#風俗はセーフティネットではありません (Prostitution is not a safety net, argues Twitter)

“Namapo” is internet slang for a welfare user in Japanese.

I realised my human rights when I went on welfare.

I' m allowed to get welfare too.I don't have to work as a prostitute to pay my debts.It's been a long road to realisatio...

Suffering from mental illness, and further stuck in the exploitative structure of the prostitution industry, I took welfare benefits to try to rebuild my battered self and bankrupt myself of debts.

I am now very happy to have escaped from the painful work, from the debts and to be able to concentrate on my treatment and rest.

I hope that I can show women who are prostitutes that there is an option of welfare.
