What do men in papa-katsu call the allowance when they give it to you?
This content is machine-translated.
Pocket money?
“Thanks for spending time with an old guy like me”?
Hush money?
It really annoys me when they hand me the allowance saying, “Here’s some pocket money~.” Like, no—this isn’t pocket money. It’s compensation for having sex with you (or going on a date with you), isn’t it?

I don’t know what it is, but questions like this are strangely embarrassing. From an outsider’s perspective, we’re all birds of a feather anyway.
Wouldn’t it be better to operate here according to the manners and rules of this community? It’s easier that way, too.
Do and say what the other person wants. It goes both ways. Let’s get along.

My papa calls the money he transfers me each month “payment for massages.” Whenever I stay over, it’s customary for me to massage his feet, so I think he’s just joking around when he says that.

I feel like the label doesn’t really matter. Calling it “compensation” makes it sound almost like an adult service, though. Even if you call it pocket money, as long as you receive the agreed-upon amount, I don’t think it’s something to get upset about.
By the way, I don’t really like the term “allowance” because it sounds a little too blunt. So with students, I hand it over saying, “Here’s your pocket money for today,” and with working women, I just say, “Thanks again for today.”
