Abstract
Throughout much of the twentieth century, in both the prewar and postwar eras, the perfect family inJapan was hegemonically posited on the presence of a woman who—either as wife or mother—wasrequired to suppress or erase her desire. For the male, on the contrary, taking a 'concubine'—or enteringinto a similar relationship with a woman who was not his legal wife—was de rigueur in that it announcedto the world not merely sexual potency, but, also economic and social masculine success.
