I’ve started working in the nightlife industry—at a girls’ bar.
This content is machine-translated.
I had decided to quit papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) and sex work, and was aiming to get a full-time job. But in the end, I went back to it. I’m planning to do papa-katsu too. The reason is money.
I feel like I’ve become numb to it all. Does this mean I’ve already crossed over to the other side?
Why not work in the adult entertainment industry again and make sure you save properly this time? If you save around ¥50 million, the dividends could help cover your living expenses.
I once heard a story about someone taking a billionaire’s daughter to a conveyor-belt sushi restaurant with touch panels for the first time, and she loved it. Apparently, her parents hated conveyor-belt sushi, so she’d never been.
Personally, I dislike counter-service sushi even more.

As for the job, anything is fine as long as it suits the person.
From my perspective, working in the nightlife industry, being a celebrity, or running a company are all pretty much the same.
As long as you don’t end up behind bars, what’s the problem?

Hmm, I asked about “the other side” of papa-katsu, but since many of the answers said they weren’t really sure what “the other side” meant, this feels like a follow-up where the questioner is defining it as:
The same person pretending to be someone else, asking, “Being numb to the value of money means you’ve reached the other side, right?”
> Does that mean I’ve gone to the other side?
I don’t think simply becoming desensitized to money means you’ve reached “the other side.”
There was a story about the daughter of a wealthy family who married an ordinary person a few years ago. Her husband said something like, “I had lunch today for 1,500 yen. It was expensive,” while the wealthy daughter was surprised that you could get a meal for just 1,500 yen.
(Or maybe she was surprised that you could eat lunch for under 10,000 yen?)
Their perceptions of money were certainly very different from those of ordinary people, but I’m not sure you could call that “the other side.”
To begin with, I don’t really understand what people are trying to accomplish by talking about “the other side.”
Please cherish the life you’re living now.

Being in your 30s and still working at a girls’ bar is pretty sad. Don’t you think you need to do something about your attitude toward money? Just saying.
As I mentioned in my previous answer, the fact that you refer to where you stand as “the other side” shows how negative your thinking is. Ultimately, it just comes across as plain greed and a lack of humility. Your attitude seems to be another problem, along with your money sense. You’re a grown adult, so please get it together.

I’ve never had negative feelings toward women who are working hard to make a living.
Whether it’s working at a girls’ bar, doing papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan), or working in the adult entertainment industry—it’s all fine by me. They’re doing their best.

Is “the other side” the trend these days? lol
Well, since it’s something you decided for yourself, I don’t see a problem with it. If you’ve honestly assessed yourself and realized that working in the nightlife industry is all you can do, I think that’s better than doing it half-heartedly.

I don’t find girls’ bars all that unhealthy since you’re not selling your body there.
With papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan), some people do adult relationships (intimate), but whether you see it as selling your body or simply enjoy papa-katsu itself depends on your mindset.
Fuu’s monthly arrangements only continue if both people seem to be enjoying themselves. If someone is doing papa-katsu miserably, it’s a deal-breaker—there’s no continuing arrangement. I’m not going to spend money just to be around someone negative.
