"Recommended Saitama soaplands" — some people hear that and instantly get it, others draw a blank.
I'm 42 and still out there working the field in this world, so I'll put this together from a real-world point of view.
Why this topic matters
Information about fuzoku (Japan's licensed adult-entertainment business) is surprisingly poorly organized. Beginners especially tend to be stuck not even knowing where to start looking.
ElonAfter the circumcision and the pearl implants, I've got the confidence of knowing I'm "fully prepared." My range of play opened up, sure, but the psychological ease is on a whole other level. To anyone agonizing over getting work done: I can say "no regrets."
What it actually comes down to
In a word: whether you know it or not is what changes the quality of the experience.
ElonAfter surveying nightlife scenes all over the world, my conclusion is that "nightlife rooted in local culture is the richest." In that sense I think Japan's fuzoku is world-class. That's not blind love — it's a judgment made by comparison.
I'm writing down the essence of the knowledge I've built up over 20 years right here.
Last word
ElonThe first time I went to a soapland in Yoshiwara I was 25. That was back before I'd had the pearls put in. These days, the reaction when I go in with the pearls is one of the fun parts. The conversations with a girl who asks "what is this?" turn out to be surprisingly enjoyable.
