Is the pill usage rate high among women doing papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan)? I take it. Honestly, I don’t think you can do papa-katsu without taking it. Even if the pill causes an illness (such as blood clots), makes me unable to get pregnant, or causes side effects, I feel it’s necessary as long as I’m seeking money in the short term through papa-katsu.

The pill may prevent pregnancy by 99%, but it doesn’t protect against STIs, so I always make sure to use condoms. But every now and then, there are papas who say things like, “I’ll pull out” or “I’ll give you the morning-after pill, so let me do it without a condom.” Why do men tend to think of going without a condom primarily as a pregnancy risk? To me, going without a condom means the biggest risk is STIs. Is it common for women doing papa-katsu not to take the pill? I’m a student and absolutely don’t want to get pregnant. I haven’t even entered society yet, and it would ruin my life. When I see young people getting married because of an unplanned pregnancy or becoming single mothers, I can’t help thinking it’s incredibly foolish.
