Well, I was thinking the opposite: No one touched the wine, but everyone is drunk...
 

Yes, I've heard that too. Supposedly the Japanese prostitutes won't take gaijins is that they carry HIV. Your point about Japanese men hitting on Southeast Asian prostitutes (where there is rampant disease) shoots that argument down.
 
According to the bood Embrcing Defeat by John W. Dower the experiences of Japanese prostitutes during the occupation were often negative. Actually the white GIs got a bad reputation while the black GIs were regarded are less abusive and somewhat more considerate.

It is obviously up the prositute to say no - unless she is forced by her pimp!

It is amasing that the discussion is only about how unfair it would be it some white guys are beeing rejected! Why do no one but myself question wether it is cool to use the services of prostitutes?

Don't worry. We'll get around to it, sooner or later.
 
Honestly,I've always read it is the " endowed manhood " of whitemen can present a problem for local Oriental sex providers in the Far East.

Why, maybe you could start your own thread for this?

A point that I had also made earlier in this eye-opening thread. It is interesting to observe how some folks fail to see what they would normally in the West, regard as sheer double standards and hypocrisy concerning Japanese exclusivity. If arguing against established realities with "fluffy" make-belief is not romanticisation, nothing is.
 
So basically everyone here is arguing that Japan is racist because white men can't use their prostitutes...yet no one here admits to having ever used or tried to use a prostitute while in Japan right?

I can attest that many white men have used/still use prostitutes in Japan. Have I, no, but I do know where to find them in many different cities. I have had to go retrieve some of my co-workers in order to get them to work on time (when I was in the military).

Are there places that exclude foreigners...yes! Do they have that right? Yes! I have in my establishment (not a soapland) a sign, it says that I have the right to refuse service to anyone. I have refused services to Japanese before and they left quite pissed I might say, but they left. I have had to deal with the police before because of it, but they agreed with me. Does that make it discrimination...in a way yes, in a way no. The business owner has a right to protect his/her investment.

Why don't you create a thread that picks on some business/industry that matters, and not something that should be illegal?
 
Second point...I have never been refused service at an onsen or public bath. I have received looks and I am sure they didn't like my tatoos, but I was never asked to leave.

Maybe some people left the bath because I was there. Did I take it as an insult? No...I took it as they are stupid enough as to waste their money by leaving early...no big deal to me! Then I continued to enjoy myself immensly in the wide open baths!

That would be a nice thread actually... but we will be going off topic from here.

C'mon Arman I'm waiting for the pricelist..

That is what the white men like to hear...but not necesarily true. If it was, why would any woman ever marry a white man?

Was "can white men use prostitutes in Japan" ever the question? No.
There're a few fleshpots for-gaijins (as evidenced in the paltry tokyopink guide) where the hostesses are frequently non-japanese. However, I refuse to believe that the make-up is like that by coincidence. The accessibility and usage of pure-blooded Japanese pros by foreigners is the well-established exception.

Are there places that exclude foreigners...yes! Do they have that right? Yes!
Again, their "right" to exclude foreigners is not the point. It is the shallow and contrived basis upon which they reject foreigners that is irksome and the focus here.

I'm still waiting to see the "semi-apartheid" apologists producing that hallowed list of "mainstream" fleshpots that the OP could use. Give us something concrete, please. Not some nebulous examples/theories/ideologies spouted by a certain cult of personality here. Anybody with some integrity would realise that that list is short indeed and that the majority of the multitudes of "mainstream" fleshpots are offlimits to foreigners.

What makes you think I have a pricelist? Maybe if you Google or contact some of the vendors at Tokyo Pink Guide, you might find some perhaps?

Go back and read several posts...obviously it was!

The majority? Maybe in the area that you visit...try a different area. If you are so hard up to get laid, please go to Thailand, I'm sure they can/will accomodate you.
 
Please remain ontopic ya'all ! Or I'll have to lock this
 
Getting back on topic: Who among us has been to a soapland?

BTW, not me.
 
No - but I am not ashamed to say I would think about it.

I really hadn't thought of it, but when I saw that one in Shibuya (and already knowing what they are), I thought about maybe taking a peek inside to see what their facilities were like. From the outside, it seemed pretty clean (I was only able to see as far as (I guess) an anteroom).

Isn't entry to a soapland regulated (by bumpers) before one gets a chance to meet the girls ? It's a bit like entering a nightclub, isn'y it. If you can't get in, you can't complain that the bartender won't serve you drinks...

What bothers me is the attitude of the Japanese to refuse people based on their looks, even if they speak well Japanese. I don't care about soaplands, and not even onsens or nightclubs, as I do not like such places, but it bothers me by principle just to see a sign "no foreigners".

What bothers me even more is how many Japanese think that "gaijins" have STD's, when Japanese people are undeniably so much more promiscuous people than where I come from. A survey showed that Belgians had sex for the first time at age 18 in average. Apart from some seriously inhibited people, who hasn't had sex by age 18 in Japan among today's youth ? I don't want to sound prudish, but Japanese youth (at least in Tokyo) seem so much more debauched and unprincipled about sex than people in my country. THAT is why I cannot accept that any Japanese think I, or any of my compatriots, would be more liekly to have STD's than them.

I've always felt that prostitution should be legalized so it could be regulated and taxed. By regulating, I mean that the girls have to undergo regular STD checks and have it documented (hung as a shingle?) for customers' viewing.

I am not sure that is the point of the argument. My understanding of the debate so far is that soaplands, i.e. establishments/companies, refuse entry (not "using" prostitutes, although the result is the same) to foreigners. I am pretty sure that "independent" prostitutes (at least those outside soaplands or such establishments) do whatever they want and many wouldn't mind having foreign customers. The problem is that big companies have a policy (imposed from above) not to allow foreigners, and the government just turns a blind eye, as it does on prostitution.

Are there places that exclude foreigners...yes! Do they have that right? Yes! I have in my establishment (not a soapland) a sign, it says that I have the right to refuse service to anyone.

Maybe they can "reserve the right of entry" based on language skills or such things, but if it is just because someone is a foreigner it is usually called racism or racial discrimination (otherwise I don't know what that latter term means).
 

See - I dont think Id have a problem hitting one up - even just to say that I did. Im not saying Id receive any services from the woman (since I assume they ALSO give sensual massages), or that I WOULDNT - but there doesnt have to be penetration going on in order to enjoy the services of a woman whos job it is is simply to make you feel good.
 


I still contend that I have never had an establishment keep me out when I confronted them about it. But isn't the sign serving as protection for foreigners as well? I mean by not going in, you won't get a STD right? Much like heading the "Beware of Dog" sign will keep you from being bitten!

I swear though the number of people who complain about not being able to go into a business drives me nuts. They always say "well, it's not that I want to go in, but it's the principle of the matter!" I guess if I opened up a shop in Tokyo and put a sign up that says "Murder House...We will kill you if you enter, chop you into little pieces and make soup of your remains!" "No Foreigners Allowed!" I would no doubt have people come up complaining that I wouldn't let them in...even if they knew that it would be the end of their life! We're usually talking about bars, hostess bars, ***** houses, pool halls that double as drug houses, and the lot...yet people complain that they can't go in...what?

It is rare that you find a "normal" place that excludes foreigners...but people still complain.

I know lots, its very much a case of loud minority, silent majority. Not every single female in Tokyo or Japan for that matter hangs out in nightclubs, doing enjokosei on the side for LV handbags.
Another thing that people forget is that there are still a lot of places that are "invitation only" - you have to come with a "member", and then maybe next time you can come on your own.
Theres still escort services that basically come to you that foreigners can use if they have the language skills. Theres even a few that specifically cater to English speakers - have a read of this.

So without getting too graphic, what do the Soapland's actually offer? Is it a full package so to speak? Spending most of my Japanese life in Shibuya, even having never gone in one (scout's honor) I'm quite familiar w/ the massage parlors. I think the general rule is that they'll give you a really lame massage with the old hand shandy on the end. One of my best friends is quite perhaps the horniest guy on the planet. He'd go out, and try to score. Usually he did. If he didn't, he'd go to "the shop" then head home. I think one time he was going out for some drinks w/ some friends and one of his friends brought his new girlfriend, who was actually one of the girls that worked there. O_O

Wow -- does anyone else find something wrong in the fact that this guy got his first everything (kiss, shower, lay) all within about 5 minutes of each other? What a first time.
EDIT: I think I have the most befitting avatar of this perverted thread.
