Old People Porn: Japan’s Big Niche

Most people associate retirement with golfing, resorts, spending time in your garden. You know, retiring. 

Not Shigeo Tokuda, who at age 81 has only been retired from porn for about 6 years. He started at the age of 60 after retiring from his first job as a salaryman.

Tokuda won't disclose his real name, he doesn't want his wife and daughter to know he's been in well over 350 adult movies, under his own branding label.

How has he been so successful? Mature porn has become a cash cow, given Japan's large elderly population. I wouldn't take them for porn watchers, but they must be, because "mature porn" has accounted for 20-30% of the porn market in Japan.
