In the course of a conversation with a male member, he once said, “When I first registered with Universe, the staff told me not to show female members’ profiles to anyone else. But that means there are people who do show them, right? Those people shouldn’t be doing that.” Ever since I heard that, I’ve been a little worried because it made me realize that I can’t say there’s a 100% guarantee I won’t be recognized.
It’s possible to register through a salon or without a profile photo, but not everyone can register through a salon. I’ve also heard from the staff that having no profile photo reduces the number of offers, so I imagine some female members are concerned about that as well.
In the end, do we just have to accept the risk of being recognized?

Some men will actually show it to you, saying, “Look.”
So I think there’s always a risk of being identified.
You can’t do papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) without being prepared for that.
No matter how careful you are, there seem to be quite a few people with a very lax attitude toward privacy. It’s unfortunate.

I registered with Universe discreetly.
At another dating club, my identity was exposed, and it was an absolutely awful experience. I quit right away.

As mentioned in another question, there are apparently people who show their profiles to others, so I don’t think you can feel 100% safe. Since your face is visible, there’s no telling where your identity might be exposed. Some people may even be recognized by strangers who see them walking around town.
It’s true that not everyone can register with SALON, but I signed up because I couldn’t show my face publicly—or risk being recognized.
You won’t know whether you can register unless you go through the interview. I had no intention of signing up anywhere else if SALON didn’t accept me, so I’m truly grateful to SALON. I feel like it was simply meant to be.
I don’t think being recognized is something you should just put up with.

I think everyone weighs the risks against the rewards when making decisions. I don’t think that’s the same as simply putting up with something.
