Female members can send reverse offers to male respondents they like by emailing the administrator to express their interest. Male members can learn which female members are interested in them by answering questions and sharing their opinions.

Someone previously posted here that you can tell your own class from the preview. Where exactly should I look to find it?
💬 Answer from 前澤（スタッフ）:

This concerns male members, so female members cannot see which class they belong to.
As for where to find it on the male member page:
On a PC, go to:
“Edit Registration Information”
Then select:
“Profile Information”
There, you can enter your profile details and choose whether to make them public or private. If you click “Preview,” you’ll see how your profile appears to female members.
Your class is also displayed there.

Why not just get rid of the ABCD dating types altogether? I think it would be enough to have just two options: “Absolutely not” or “It could be possible if I like the other person.” Would anyone really be inconvenienced if there weren’t four categories?
💬 Answer from 前澤（スタッフ）:
Maezawa here.
There are actually five dating types, from A to E.
However, several years ago, it was decided that Type E wasn’t really suitable for a dating club, so it was treated separately.
(E still exists today, though.)
As a result, the number was effectively reduced from five types to four, so it’s possible that they may eventually be reduced to just two options.
That said, I feel the four current dating types embody the kind of romance unique to dating clubs, and …

Type C women are judged by whether they click with 50% of the men they date. But even after being set up with 10 men, there wasn’t a single one I clicked with from the very first date. The staff and male members seemed to have the following understanding: “No, no, no—that’s not Type C! That’s pretending to be Type C!” Or at least that’s how I understood it.

I'm wondering whether to join. I'm quite tall—I'm in the high 170-cm range. Would a woman this tall still be able to date men? I understand it ultimately depends on the individual, and I don't think my figure is bad either. However, if my height would make men hesitant to approach me, I feel there wouldn't be much point in joining. That's why I wanted to ask before applying. I'd appreciate any insight.
💬 Answer from 斉藤さんだぞ♪:
I’m Saito, a column writer ♪
I’ll make you an offer, so please do join us.
For models, the ideal height is between 178 and 180 cm. Unless you have the benefit of family connections, you can’t even get into runway shows.
(I’m not referring specifically to Chanel shows.)
Height isn’t something you can gain through ingenuity or hard work. Be grateful to your parents and your environment, and turn it into one of your assets.

About my rank When I had my interview the other day, the staff member who interviewed me showered me with praise, saying things like, “You’ll definitely get tons of offers!” So I was expecting my rank to be Platinum, but when I asked the men, they said it was Gold. Why would they praise me so much if that was the case...? Was it just lip service? And if so, was there really any need to compliment me that much? (; ; )

It’s hard to know unless you ask the staff member who interviewed you, but one possibility is that during the interview, they found your personality so wonderful that it made your appearance seem even more attractive.
Then, when they considered registering you as Platinum, perhaps another staff member said something like, “Just looking at her photos, wouldn’t she be more suited to Gold?”

I'm a male member. I wanted to ask because something in Mr. Maezawa's answer to another question struck me as odd. Regarding the types, Mr. Maezawa says that if a woman ends up going on dates with four men and having an adult relationship (intimate) with two of them—“50% of the time”—that makes her a C type, while if it's “50% for each man she dates,” she is made an A type.

Since another staff member has already responded, I suppose it’s okay for me to answer now as well.

Could you tell me the ratio of offers to the total number of women in each class? I think it might be better to eliminate Black and have a three-tier system: Platinum, Gold, and Standard.

Thank you for suggesting that we reduce the class system to three tiers.
That said, I’m not sure how many classes would be ideal, so I think it may be better to keep the current four-class system.
I don’t have any particular reason; it’s simply a cautious view. Since the club is doing well, I don’t feel there’s any need to change its system.
If the club’s business were declining, I’d agree that it would be worth trying various changes. But with things going …

Normally, they wouldn’t ask that question repeatedly, so I feel this may be the key point.

First of all, women may be featured as a “pickup” even when they receive good feedback from men. Women who have had particularly good interactions with the staff may also be featured.

Let’s say, hypothetically, you gave ¥10,000 to 20 women.

There is no employment relationship between the dating club and the women. The club also does not pay women directly. Therefore, no employment income is generated, so you don’t need to worry about dependent deductions.
Any money you receive from a man would likely be considered a gift rather than income, regardless of the amount, so I don’t think it would affect your dependent status either.

You might notice signs that a woman is about to leave if you meet with her in person regularly, but basically, we only communicate by email or LINE, so women sometimes leave without showing almost any signs.
