Papa-katsu is boring. There are nothing but shitty guys. They tell me not to take getting paid for granted, but in a world where that’s the whole point, I’m like, “What are you even talking about?” When a young woman spends time with an older man, that alone naturally comes with a price. That’s why host clubs and the adult entertainment industry pay more than a regular office job. If the pay weren’t high, nobody would do it.

How deluded are the older men who tell me to be grateful for getting paid and not take it for granted? How much value do they seriously think they have as men?

Papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) is unbelievably boring, and you’re not suited to working with people, so you should quit already.
If you really have that much to offer, you’d make more money as a livestreamer or content creator.
Papas (male supporters) have a demand for talking to girls badly enough to pay for it, since otherwise they won’t get any attention. You have a demand for selling your time at a fair price—ideally, above market value.
It’s not simply a matter of supply and demand; it’s about matching the needs of both sides. You’re not just supplying something to the papa unilaterally.
You could say McDonald’s makes money because you’re buying a hamburger for 200 yen. But you could also say you’re able to eat a hamburger because McDonald’s sells it for 200 yen.

The jaded tone of the message is a little concerning, but maybe it's good that you found out it's a boring place. At least you won't have to waste any more of your time there. All's well that ends well.

If it’s boring, let’s just stop.
That doesn’t mean I don’t want to give you an allowance.
If you’re someone I genuinely feel happy giving an allowance to, I’ll hand it over without saying a word.
By the way, saying that an older man has no value is just the questioner’s perspective. An older man who earns that much is valuable from society’s point of view.

I’m sure something unpleasant must have happened, but you’re better off quitting papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) if it isn’t enjoyable.
Come back when you’re able to have a good time with older men again...

I’ll answer as Maezawa from the CEO’s office as well.
Have you stopped shopping at regular stores, by any chance? Are you a shut-in who does everything online?
Normally, store staff say something like, “Thank you very much.” I don’t think there are stores where they just stay silent as if to say, “Of course you have to pay.”
I’ve also never encountered a clerk who said something like, “How much value do you think you have?”
These days, expressing gratitude is simply considered standard practice, and I believe it also affects whether a business thrives or not.
Even at hostess clubs, I think they express their appreciation.
Perhaps you should take a closer look at what is generally considered common sense in society.

People aren’t always a good fit, so don’t force yourself to continue—just quit papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan).
If you dislike it that much, you probably shouldn’t be looking at the question box either.

Other than being young, what else do you have to offer?
Do you know how to make a man enjoy himself, like the women who work at hostess clubs or in the adult entertainment industry?
You’re the one who shouldn’t get the wrong idea.
