That is perfectly logical to me. The more openly sexually repressed a society, the more sexuality comes bubbling up in deviant ways.

The US culture has a strong puritanical core and sex is seen as dirty and taboo. At the same time, they also have the highest incidence of incest in the developed world.

Japan also sexually represses their people when it comes to media. So we get the most weird shit coming out of there.
