"Saitama, fuzoku work, monthly pay" (fuzoku = Japan's licensed adult-entertainment business) — I figure some of you hear that and immediately get it, and some of you don't.
At 42, I'm still out on the floor in this world, so I'll put this together from a real, on-the-ground point of view.
Why This Topic Matters
Information about fuzoku is surprisingly poorly organized. Beginners especially tend to end up not even knowing where to start looking.
ElonAfter getting circumcision surgery and a pearl implant, I feel genuinely "ready." My range in the room widened, sure, but the bigger difference is the psychological ease. To anyone agonizing over whether to get work done, I can say: "No regrets."
What That Actually Means
In a word: "whether you know it or not changes the quality of the experience."
ElonAfter surveying nightlife scenes around the world, my conclusion is that "the night culture rooted in the local culture is always the richest." In that sense I think Japan's fuzoku is world-class. That's not blind love — it's a judgment based on comparison.
What I've written here is the essence of the knowledge I built up over 20 years.
Finally
Elon42, single, living alone. When nearly your whole paycheck disappears into fuzoku, you naturally develop an "eye" for it. That's not a brag and it's not a regret — I'm just putting it down as a plain fact.
