Regarding the new dating types:

> So should I assume that inviting a new B1 woman to have an adult relationship on the second date is also against the rules? If you consider that B1 and B2 were originally both classified as B, it’s probably best to understand that the rule has carried over: the first date should be dinner only, and you shouldn’t invite her to an adult relationship from the very first date. With that in mind, I don’t think there’s a problem with ending the first date after dinner and asking her on the second date. That said, naturally, there’s a right way to ask. Even if it’s the second date, if you keep pressuring her over and over, saying things like, “Why not? What’s the problem?”— the woman may complain to the club, saying, “Then what’s the point of separating B1 and B2?” (Most women are kind, though, so they usually respond to the man with a smile.) If complaints like that increase, new rules will probably be created. If everyone were considerate of the other person, rules wouldn’t really be necessary in the first place. But if even a few people think only of themselves and start saying, “What’s wrong with that? It’s not written in the rules, is it?”— then it becomes: “We need to create a rule about this.” “We should force people like this to leave the club.” That’s how things progress. If you ask smoothly and tactfully, without making the other person uncomfortable, it probably won’t lead to a complaint. And if there’s no complaint, it won’t affect your evaluation, nor will anyone start talking about having you leave the club. Please remember once again that the rules don’t come first—the feelings of the two people involved are what matter.

You’re completely trapped in the compliance mindset, huh? lol. It’s almost comical—like a street racer asking, “Is this speeding?” Inviting a B1 on the very first day is against the rules, right? They say “take it slow,” which is even slower than B2, where it’s okay from the second meeting onward, so isn’t it obvious without even asking? Are you going to be okay? I’m sure that even once you start an adult relationship (intimate), you’ll be asking which activities are off-limits, too（笑). For someone like you, I recommend an “AV actress no-go list.” Search for images using “AV actress no-go,” and you’ll find them. They list all kinds of activities like a medical questionnaire, which is surreal and pretty funny. Anyway, it is against the rules, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you absolutely shouldn’t do it. Depending on how things are going, there may even be times when it’s better to go ahead. If you both really click, that’s where things may naturally lead. What do you think women would make of a man who hesitates at that point? I think whether you’re willing to take that risk can make a big difference. Since you’re doing something outside the rules, you should exercise an appropriate level of caution. Are you sure the feeling that you click isn’t just wishful thinking on your part? Is she simply trying her best to keep things lively? Are you putting strange pressure on her and backing her into a corner? While not missing a good opportunity, it’s important to consider every possible risk and address as many concerns as you can beforehand. One straightforward precaution is to ask explicitly. For example, you could bring it up yourself and have her say, “I understand that B1 means meeting several times and taking things slowly as we get to know each other.” People generally find it difficult to later deny something they’ve said themselves, so getting someone to say it can be an effective tactic. However, make sure she’s not being pressured and is genuinely in a position to refuse freely before doing so. Anyway, good luck. I’ll say it again: if you want to follow every social rule perfectly, don’t play these kinds of games—stick to serious relationships. The reason you’ve entered this gray area is that you can’t be satisfied with that alone. So, fundamentally, you have to think for yourself on the assumption that nothing is truly protecting you. If you can do that, whether things ultimately succeed or fail, it will be a learning experience（笑） Taro

There’s a saying: “Even a dog won’t touch a married couple’s quarrel.” When it comes to relationships between men and women, only the people involved truly know what’s going on. With the introduction of the new B1 category, it’s probably become easier for A-type women to enter that category. And since the new B2 and C categories haven’t changed much, it’s only natural to choose B1 over B2. The new B1 category now covers a broad range, from nearly C-type to A-type. Has that made it more complicated—or given women more freedom of choice? Well, we’ll see how it turns out.

Unless you make an exceptionally inappropriate advance, I don’t think a complaint alone would result in a warning or forced account termination. Since this involves two people, I don’t think there’s any blanket rule saying that asking someone out on a certain date is a violation. Regardless of the relationship type, it’s better to understand that choosing the wrong timing or approach could cause her feelings toward you to turn negative. Apparently, women who haven’t selected B2 are categorized as B1, so I think it’s too early to start speculating based on which type is more common. This question sounds like it’s really asking whether pressing the button with a B1 woman from the second date onward won’t trigger an alarm. But she isn’t a vending machine, so I think it’s nonsense to apply a blanket rule based on which date it is.
