You might not know who Shigeo Tokuda is yet, but you will … because everybody loves Shigeo! He’s the 73-year-old man who happens the hottest elderly pornstar in Japan, which is like totally adorable. Or at least the U.S. media seems to think so, since he’s been featured in glowing tributes on CNN, in addition to his mention in Time magazine, two outlets that aren’t exactly known for celebrating anything porn-related (or even mildly sexual, for that matter.) But when it comes to the wacky Japanese and their crazy old people fetish, it’s the feel good story of the year! But we still have some questions …
Like why is it okay for him to inspire the elderly, but Sasha Grey can’t inspire you? Maybe if she sticks around until she’s 80 she’ll make the cover of Time. And why no mention of his equally old female partners? Is it not as remarkable for them to get laid? Which leads us to the most important elephant in the porn studio that both stories chose to ignore: What about Viagra? Even most twenty-three year olds these days can’t perform without a little pharmaceutical assistance. Or maybe this story should be in the “medical miracles” section instead?
