Photo Message
写メ · shame
Also known as: shame
A photo taken on a mobile phone; used in compounds such as photo diary (写メ日記) and "no shame" (no photos).
Shame comes from Sha-mail, the early mobile phone service for sending photos by mail, and now simply means a photo taken on a phone. On adult venue websites you meet it most in the shame nikki, the photo diary a woman writes with her own phone photos.
In a venue's rules, "shame NG" or "no shame" means no photography in the venue or the room. The selfies a woman takes for her profile are also called shame. It does not mean a service of women sending photos to guests, and asking a woman to exchange private photos is not something you can request.
When you'll encounter this
You meet it in the name photo diary and in the no-photography line of a venue's rules.
