Joh Than you have not to worry about a possibility which is unlikely.

I didn't need it that much.

Vanessa But he's very skilled in lockpicking.

He claims that every girl is able to do the same.

    Joh Oh, I think both is possible but it will only work fine if they have an agreement which fits both.
    As an example, I can't remember her name, she has an agreement with her parents. She lives in another town and she wears the belt all time but has 1 hour time every evening to open it for cleaning and for fun. In exchange she got a car and the money for the school and living.

    @Lana, yes this agreement was really very well structured

    JonesMacGyver Keeping passwords in your head works great... Until you get get older and start forgetting them... 🤣

    if I forget something it was not so important 😉

    HHelen He claims that every girl is able to do the same.

    and it is precisely this point that I doubt, but it is certainly possible with a lot of training

    Anyone with functioning fingers and decent dexterity can learn to pick a basic lock in a matter of hours. I once learned it myself because I was bored though I'm out of practice now, laughs. Learning it if you're being watched all the time, that's a different matter.

      the question is not whether we can do it, but whether we can put the padlock back on without any problems.

      Ines I am against the wearer can have any power about her belt.

      Even if you have,as you can say you would stop wearing it,and your parents would give you the key.You would not do it as you're a willingly wearer,but you can.

      Most of the reluctant wearers can too,if they accept the consequences.As the convinced ones,if they accept to lose the advantages.

      HHelen He claims that every girl is able to do the same.

      But many here have strong doubts about it.

      GoodyProctor Learning it if you're being watched all the time, that's a different matter.

      Which seem close to @HHelen's daughter's case.I doubt she can learn it without her mother knowing it.

        Vanessa
        I mean, Vanessa, further the decision of wear it or not.
        Let me an example:
        You can choose make a diet or not, but if you are on diet you, for example, should not eat bread.
        Can you eat bread? Yes, but the you are not on a diet then.
        Chastity belt the same, can a girl be keyholder? Can a girl have the key? Can a girl to decide when opening the belt?
        The answer is yes, but then, she is not wearing a chastity belt.
        A girl can choose to make a diet or not, but if she chooses diet, then she can not eat Nutella sandwiches.

          Ines she is not wearing a chastity belt.>

          One thing must be - how far from the keys she is?
          If she use it as an anti-rape protection and goes out, but all the keys are at home.
          Then this must be wearing a chastity belt?

            Tobbe
            No.
            I am not criticizing that, but since she is only wearing it as a tool for protection, it is not the philosophy of a chastity belt.
            Just my opinion, of course.

              Ines But a chastity belt can be worn for protection by the woman self, or you call it with another name then???
              If so, when will it be a different?

              Vanessa .As the convinced ones,if they accept to lose the advantages.

              right for some who get something for wearing the belt the advantages outweigh the disadvantages

              HHelen And it will be changing soon.

              what exactly do you mean by that ?

                This is interesting:
                It is illegal to lock picks in Japan, they were made illegal in 2003 by the "Act on Prohibition of Possession of Special Picking Tools, and Other Related Matters"(特殊開錠用具の所持の禁止等に関する法律) which forbids owning any tool used to bypass locks unless there is a legitimate business need.
                Violation of this can lead to 1 year in prison or a 500,000 yen (~$5000 USD) fine. Legitimate business need is a bit vague, but it is typically interpreted as you can only have them if you are a locksmith. Since a hobby is not a legitimate business need, the lock picking hobby is effectively banned. The law does not specify just lock picks, but rather any tool that can be used to bypass locks!

                  Tobbe

                  interesting, kind of interesting the idea of me living in japan, opening my belt and going to jail for it 🤣

                  Ines

                  Thank you for your explanation,I understand better your meaning.

                  HHelen

                  Why?If I've understood well,she would still live at home during her studies.

                  Angelina right for some who get something for wearing the belt the advantages outweigh the disadvantages

                  Yes,no bad consequences but losing all the advantages she got by accepting to wear it,and so,using the same rules than before she started to wear it,which can be hard to accept...

                    Vanessa Yes,no bad consequences but losing all the advantages she got by accepting to wear it,and so,using the same rules than before she started to wear it,which can be hard to accept...

                    i think i agree with you (although frankly i don't understand your answer 100% that's why i think)

                      Vanessa ?If I've understood well,she would still live at home during her studies.

                      But will spend most of her time outside.

                        HHelen But will spend most of her time outside.

                        i don't know what it's like in the usa, i will probably be at the university mainly for the lectures, i can learn best at home. but i don't know how your daughter learns best

                        Angelina

                        I meant the consequences for convinced wearer would only be to lose the advantages they get,and that the fact they lose these,and resume with the rules they had before,would be enough to make them keep wearing it.

                        HHelen

                        Maybe a bit more than now,but she would still have a lot of lessons and have to review it,so not that much,if she's serious.Especially at first,as she would have to adapt to the rhythm of learning at university.

                          Tobbe Dam, at least they don't ban drill bits, hammers, and hacksaws. General tools can work to get around a lock with brute force, but that is too strict. I would like to visit Japan, but not have to deal with their strict rules. I would go insane if I can't fine tune my lockpicking skills.
