7-11, a global chin of convenience stores is banning porn from its more than 20,000 stores in Japan. Up until now they have offered a wide variety of porn magazines. The store is following the lead of the Ministop chain which ended porn sales last
month citing the reluctance of parents to enter the stores with their children. Traditionally the chains earned a lot of money with porn magazines but times are a changing and the magazine publishers will now have to contemplate a significant
decline in retail stockists. |
