Weird Japanese Folklore — The NebutoriOne nights after a particularly boisterous night of drinking and revelry a young man climbs into bed with an exceptionally attractive woman. The next morning the man wakes up not only with a terrible hangover, but with a large fat woman at his side. No this was not just a case of drinking too much sake, the unfortunate woman had been infected with a terrible disease and overnight become a nebutori.According to the Edo period legend of the nebutori, an especially virulent disease swept across Japan. Worse yet, it was a politically incorrect and sexist disease which disregarded fat shaming and only afflicted women (welcome to feudal Japan). According to the legend the disease could be spontaneously caught just like the flu or any other infectious disease. Then after one night’s sleep the poor woman finds that she had instantly gained 400 lbs throughout the night. -- source link
