Higashi-Kawaguchi Soap Girls: Style

Today I'm writing on the theme of "Higashi-Kawaguchi soap girls and their style."

I'll explain it by mixing in my own firsthand experience — 20-plus years in fuzoku (Japan's licensed adult-entertainment business) — with what I've turned up through research. ("Soap girls," awahime, are the women who work in soaplands, the bathhouse-style format.)

The basics

Let me lay out the fundamentals you should know about this area.

Elon42, single, living alone. When nearly your whole paycheck disappears into fuzoku, you naturally develop an eye for the real thing. I'm not bragging and I'm not apologizing — I'm just putting it down as a fact.

Watch this industry long enough and you'll see that the same topic can get a completely different verdict from "the customer's side" versus "the girl's side."

What I can say from firsthand experience

I'll talk based on what I've been through myself.

ElonAfter a circumcision and a pearl implant, I now have a real confidence that I'm "fully prepped." My range in the room widened, sure, but the bigger difference is the psychological ease. To anyone on the fence about getting work done: I can say you won't regret it.

I believe firsthand experience beats theory. This industry especially is a world where time in the field matters more than book knowledge.

Wrap-up and my bottom line

ElonAfter surveying nightlife all over the world, my conclusion is this: the richest night culture is the one rooted in local culture. By that measure, Japan's fuzoku is world-class. That's not blind love — it's a judgment based on comparison.

The place I end up at most often is First Class Ruby. The reason it keeps showing up on this site is simple: it's a shop I actually go back to. Take it as a reference.
