"At What Point is
Voyeurism a Sickness?"
[00:11] Asuna
Let's go clothes shopping, Onee-chan!
[00:14] Iyashi
Sure. Which cosplay shop
do you want to go to?
[00:16] Asuna
That's not what I mean... Huh?
SIGN Do Not Look
In This Hole!
SIGN Menacing
[00:23] Asuna
I just can't help looking when
I see messages like these.
[00:26] Iyashi
Hey, Asuna...
[00:30] Asuna
A camera?
SIGN Bam
SIGN Bang
[00:40] Asuna
Th-Th...
[00:42] Asuna
Th-Th-Th-There was a peeping tom!
[00:44] Ryou
Huh?
[00:45] Asuna
He was taking pictures!
[00:46] Ryou
Asuna-san.
[00:47] Ryou
That's not the way a health
care provider should say it.
[00:50] Asuna
Huh?
[00:52] Ryou
In psychiatry, there is an
illness called "voyeurism!"
SIGN Voyeurism
SIGN Women
[00:56] Guy&Text
Inspection complete.
[00:58] Asuna
Just call it peeping syndrome!
SIGN He looks cooler than he should!!
[01:00] Asuna
I don't care what it's called!
Does he have that illness, too?
[01:03] Ryou
Actually, in the DSM-IV,
voyeurism is defined this way...
SIGN "Voyeurism"
SIGN Diagnosed when one watches unsuspecting strangers naked, removing clothes, or engaging in sexual acts frequently over a period of at least six months.
[01:09] Asuna
Naked, removing clothes, or sexual acts?
[01:10] Ryou
In other words, just seeing your
underwear isn't considered voyeurism!
[01:13] Asuna
What?!
[01:14] Asuna
I don't agree with that at all!
SIGN It's okay 'cause they're panties!
[01:17] Iyashi
Don't worry, Asuna.
[01:19] Iyashi
I'm not wearing any today,
[01:21] Iyashi
so it would've been voyeurism for me.
[01:23] Asuna
Why aren't you wearing any?!
Forget voyeurism, are you okay?!
[01:27] Ryou
And it's important that it
continues for six months.
[01:30] Ryou
In other words, just peeping once
isn't considered voyeurism!
SIGN So you can
all rest easy!
[01:34] Asuna
Your criteria for diagnosis are way too lax!
[01:36] Iyashi
So it's not voyeurism unless you
keep watching for six months?
[01:40] Ryou
Not for six months straight.
SIGN These sexual urges cause considerable suffering or difficulty in the patient's relationships.
[01:42] Ryou
There's also this condition.
[01:45] Ryou
In other words, if it doesn't bother
anyone, it's not a problem!
[01:48] Asuna
I'm so happy. Take more
pictures of all of me.
[01:51] Asuna
It does bother me!
[01:52] ---
And again, that makes me
look like the pervert!
SIGN Today's Theme:
"Voyeurism"
[01:54] Asuna
But why do people want to peep, anyway?
[01:57] Ryou
Huh?
[01:57] Asuna
I mean, if the guy has a girlfriend,
[01:59] Asuna
he could do a lot more
than just catch glimpses.
[02:02] Iyashi
Asuna...
[02:03] Iyashi
Maybe they peep because they
don't have that option.
[02:05] Asuna
She said it!
[02:06] Ryou
No, there are men with girlfriends or
wives who still get arrested for peeping.
[02:11] Asuna
Really?
[02:12] Ryou
It's believed that voyeurism
offers a kind of stimulation
SIGN He and I are in love!
SIGN I see...
[02:16] Ryou
unlike that experienced
in normal sexual acts.
[02:18] Ryou
Perhaps, instead of looking with permission,
[02:19] [SONG] Text
Huge Scoop!
Alone in hotel with lover!!
SIGN Please comment! Is it true?!
[02:20] Ryou
looking in secret gives them
a greater sense of conquest.
[02:23] Ryou
Also, rather than working hard
and earning what you expect,
SIGN I worked hard for a
month and made
150,000 yen...
[02:26] Ryou
getting more than you expected without
working for it may bring greater joy.
SIGN I found 10,000 yen!
[02:31] Iyashi
Dr. Ryou, you need to include this message.
SIGN This anime is only explaining the mentality behind voyeurism, expressed through ideas, and does not condone peeping. We are not responsible for any crimes committed because it was mentioned in this anime. -The Comical Psychosomatic Medicine Staff
[02:35] Ryou
They're evading all responsibility?!
[02:36] Asuna
But what are people who are
prone to voyeurism like?
[02:40] Ryou
The psychiatrist Richard W. Roukema said...
SIGN "Voyeurs do not like to be seen by the people they're watching."
SIGN Don't look, you pervert!
[02:44] Asuna
The nerve!
[02:45] Ryou
And according to Roukema,
the number of patients
[02:48] ---
receiving treatment for it is
vastly down from 40 years ago.
[02:50] Asuna
Why is that?
SIGN "Possibly because their sexual needs are fulfilled by adult websites and porn videos."
[02:52] Asuna
What?! Really?!
[02:55] Asuna
G-Grandpa?!
[02:56] Grandpa
Kids today don't know how
hard it was back then!
[02:59] Grandpa
You get all the cake and
sweets you can eat, right?
[03:01] Grandpa
But when I was a boy, we had none of that!
[03:03] Grandpa
The sweetest thing we had was the fruit
of the neighborhood persimmon tree!
[03:06] Grandpa
It's the same with erotic stuff!
[03:08] Grandpa
These days, you can find anything on the
internet, from young to mature ladies.
[03:11] Grandpa
But in my day, we had to
find it all locally!
[03:14] Grandpa
But I don't think I had it rough!
[03:16] Grandpa
Now, when everything is at our fingertips,
[03:18] Grandpa
is when we need to remember the
happiness of the old da—
[03:21] Ryou
He really flew!
[03:25] Asuna
What treatment methods
are there for voyeurism?
[03:28] Ryou
Oh, right...
[03:29] [SONG] Text
Medicinal Treatment
[03:29] Ryou
First, there's medicine.
[03:31] Iyashi
Medicine for voyeurism?
SIGN You won't want to look anymore!
Voyeur-B-Gone!
SIGN You won't want to look anymore!
SIGN Voyeur-B-Gone
[03:35] Ryou
No medication treats it that directly!
SIGN I can relax now!
[03:38] Ryou
Most patients suffer from
stress or sexual frustration,
[03:40] Ryou
so they'd use medicine to relieve those.
[03:43] Asuna
Oh, I get it...
[03:44] Iyashi
Use medicine?
[03:46] Ryou
Not that way! What is this, an
intelligence test for chimpanzees?!
[03:49] Ryou
There are also psychological remedies.
[03:51] Ryou
It's said that most voyeurism patients
experience cognitive distortions.
[03:54] Guy
If she's wearing a skirt that
short, she must want to be seen.
SIGN Girls actually like
being seen, right?
[03:58] Ryou
So we would correct those distortions.
[04:00] Doc
It doesn't mean they want to show you.
SIGN No girl is happy to be
seen by a peeping tom.
[04:02] [SONG] Text
Crushed
[04:04] Asuna
But none of those seems
like a decisive solution.
[04:07] Asuna
What else is there?
[04:08] Ryou
There's also a method called
"aversive conditioning."
[04:11] Ryou
By administering punishment
for doing something wrong,
SIGN Zap Zap
[04:13] Ryou
the patient learns to not do it again.
SIGN I won't go to the right again.
[04:16] Asuna
Hmm, punishment for peeping...
[04:19] Girl
Pervert!
[04:22] Guy
So this is her used bathwater...
[04:24] Asuna
That's not working as a punishment!
[04:26] Asuna
What do we do?! There has to be a punishment!
SIGN Beep
SIGN Boop
SIGN Bap
[04:33] Asuna
So there is a punishment.
[04:35] Ryou
I just hope he isn't enjoying it.
SIGN Before you get punished,
visit the mental clinic!
