Masahiro Nakai’s Rebuttal: Implications for Victims and Public Perception of Sexual Violence

Question from a Reader:

Question from a reader:
I have doubts about Masahiro Nakai’s claim that he “agreed to lift the confidentiality obligation.” If that were true, the confidentiality would have been lifted.
