Are most of the registered doctors in private practice? I’m considering signing up, but I work in administration at a general hospital, so I’m worried I might run into someone I know.
💬 Answer from 前澤（スタッフ）:

Since occupations are stored only as text in the database, it isn’t possible to extract them and calculate the exact numbers. But my impression is that the ratio of employed doctors to doctors with their own practices is about 3:1.
That’s why, when a nurse from a general hospital came in to register, she was similarly worried about being recognized.
In that case, we registered her with a blurred photo so that only the blurred image appeared in the wom…

I'm a registered woman. I had an opportunity to find out what class I'd been assigned to, and I was really surprised to see that it was set much higher than I expected. I don't want to disappoint male members, and since I'm barely receiving any offers at the moment, I feel that perhaps I don't really measure up after all.

Another option is to work on yourself and grow into someone who matches that level.
I often hear about women lowering their standards, but whether those women are truly thriving is a separate issue.
That said, if what you really mean is that you want to earn a lot of money, that’s a different matter.

There are plenty of kind men out there.

Women of all different types are registered, so I don’t think you need to worry too much about whether you fit a particular type.

I’m the foolish male member who did a Partners Check but never got in touch. What exactly is a “gentlemanly male member”?
💬 Answer from 前澤（スタッフ）:
Maezawa here.
One of the requirements for becoming a member is being a gentleman, but that phrase is very vague—even in Japanese.
Still, while it may be difficult to define exactly what a gentleman is, I think most people have a fairly clear idea of what a non-gentleman is.
For example, someone who verbally abuses others. I think almost everyone would agree that such a person is not a gentleman.
The same goes for people who secretly take photos or force someone into doing…

I had a Partners Check six months ago, but I didn’t know that “Members who have taken a Partners Check are expected to inform their partner.” There must be more people who have been tested but the club simply isn’t aware of them.

Is it okay to mention my sexual preferences in my profile as a man? For example, “I like ○○ play.” Likewise, is it okay to write things like: “I prefer going bare,” “I’m a bareback person,” or “NO SKIN NO LIFE”?

So, you’re hoping to increase your chances of being matched with women who are okay with it by hinting in your profile that you prefer going without protection?
I suppose that’s a kind of game in itself. If you ask whether there’s a problem with it, technically there is—but the male profile is a free-form section, so staff won’t intervene over wording like that.
