Burusera

Burusera is a term used in Japan to refer to a subculture involving the buying and selling of used female undergarments, school uniforms, and other personal items. The term is a combination of the words "bloomers" and "sailor," which are types of clothing commonly fetishized in this subculture.

History

The burusera subculture emerged in Japan in the late 1980s and gained popularity through the 1990s. It is believed to have originated from vending machines that purportedly sold pre-worn schoolgirl panties. These items were often marketed as being worn by schoolgirls and were sought after by individuals with specific fetishes.

Items Sold

In addition to school uniforms and undergarments, burusera shops may also sell other personal items such as socks, shoes, and even hair accessories. These items are often accompanied by photographs or other proof of authenticity to appeal to buyers seeking a more personalized experience.

Legal Issues

The sale of used underwear and other personal items in the burusera subculture has raised legal concerns in Japan. While the act of selling and buying such items is not explicitly illegal, there have been cases where individuals have been arrested for violating obscenity laws or engaging in underage exploitation.

Impact

The burusera subculture has garnered attention both in Japan and internationally for its unique and controversial nature. It has been the subject of various media portrayals and discussions regarding the intersection of fetishism, consumerism, and cultural taboos.
