Water, Sex work and The Floating World of Japan


I just looked outside the window of my hotel...and saw 2 captive giant sea turtles and...a stripclub across the street! (i also live across a few hostess or "girls bars" on this street in Kawasaki. In Japanese, the sex industry is known as "mizu shobai" 水商売 which derives from the old Tokugawa era floating world period. I just learned that making money in the industry; gain or loss is a matter of chance, having to do with floating, drinking and the impermanence of life. Making money in this biz is a matter of chance (a matter of water) they say, however the goddess would like to think it is a matter of FLOW and being in FLOW. (like water).  Diversifying your income has been the way to go for me, as well as it helps eliminate dependence on the next client to pay the bills or act out of desperation. Do not be a barnacle clinging to a rock in the floating world...in my early 20s when I first started stripping I can remember counting cobwebs for fun while staring at the theater ceiling to occupy my time.  Ive even inquired at a local Roppongi hostess club here in Tokyo but the two times I walked into this tiny one room bar, at the bar sat 4 other ladies and no customers, bored and sitting quietly. Totally reminded me of my stripper days.  Thank goddess I run my own water business now. Needless to say, i passed on that hostess job when I discovered a way to get clients here in Japan. If i am to take up a mizu shobai job in Japan primarily for the cultural experience of it all, I want it to be something I've never done in America. And...sitting alone waiting for customers to walk in the door is something I am unfortunately,  all too familiar with.  I'd rather dress up like a maid and serve smiley panda pancakes.   Maid cafes are for the “happy cute fetish”ists. Go to Akihabara and you'll find maids, i kid you not on EVERY CORNER enticing male customers and passing out flyers, just like the Latino workers with the agency escort flyers ($30 to your door) on the Vegas strip do. They only serve food in costume, nothing more sexual than the average school girl group of 30 bouncing around singing pure happy, and just like the $30 agency escort, the final bill is NEVER what you thought it would be.

Japan is an island surrounded by water and pornographic folklore about marine kinkiness like octopus seduction and tentacle rape, which was actually a thing way before the anime erotica (hentai) clips hit Red Tube!  Their perversion goes way back hundreds of years!  As far as I know, America (Barbary Coast San Francisco), Japan and India (Kama Sutra/Tantra) all shared a rich history of the celebration of an out and proud erotic culture and shamelessness before respective countries government laws turned things to the opposite spectrum and forced everything underground. A friend of mine tagged me in this comedy video that makes fun of Japanese penis called “Pussy Noodle” which was supposed to be a mock Japanese TV commercial. Despite how hypersexual much of Japanese pop culture seems to be, explicit portrayal of the genitals is actually ILLEGAL so I know this couldn't be made by a Japanese filmmaker in Japan because it would be a counter productive career investment. Even anime genitals to be pixelated!!  You do NOT need a large penis to be in porn in Japan!! And perhaps the pixelation does condition the men to obsess more on young girls in school girl outfits than dick size. Research has proven that the visual imaging of porn does change your subconscious. Ive definitely experienced porn conditioning although its more of the aural sounds and the scenario that I like to remember not the extreme genital closeups, but try watching genital pixels for 20 min and you really miss what you can't see! Pussy noodle is obviously a foreigner take on Japanese culture.    Mainstream Japanese TV is also pretty sterile as well unlike what you see on the U.S or Latin TV channels or even YouTube.  I believe that the small penis Asian obsession is a mainland American invention (not something Ive experienced in the API dominated state of Hawaii).  Shunga, the erotic woodblock prints, before pixelated genitalia, was 16th century porn of the day which OFTEN depicted Japanese cock much larger than it probably actually was (but...maybe not?).  i can't yet report from experience and none of us were around in 1650), my clients are all foreigners and I haven't dated or slept with a Japanese guy yet because I can't speak Japanese well enough and I've got some requirements around getting laid like a good date and conversation... but! once I have some news I WILL BE SURE TO POST💕💕!
