Yoshiwara on the Cheap

Today's topic: "Yoshiwara on the cheap."

I'll explain it by mixing in my own firsthand experience — over 20 years in fuzoku (Japan's licensed adult-entertainment business) — with what I've turned up through research.

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 the shop I actually keep going back to. Use it as a reference.
