Enjo kosai is a practice in Japan where high school-age girls are paid by older men to accompany them on dates and sometimes to render sexual services. Most observers, especially overseas, regard it as a form of child prostitution, although it need not involve sexual activities. Most customers expect and attempt sexual relations.

This BBC documentary says more than 30% of Japanese high school girls engage in enjo kosai, while others (which we can’t specifically say because we love making sweeping generalizations) put the figure in about merely 8%.
