Has the club been running any campaigns for male members lately?
I ask because, thankfully, I’ve been receiving more offers recently, and the men I meet through new offers all seem to be a type I’ve never really encountered before.
It’s hard to put into words, but many of them seem inexperienced with papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan), in both good and bad ways.
I’m wondering whether the club is running a campaign to attract new members, or perhaps offering male members some kind of perk that lets them make offers to women in a higher class than their usual membership level.
I realize this is largely speculation, and I’m sorry that my question is a bit vague, but could you tell me whether there’s currently a campaign that might temporarily be making offers more likely to increase?

Just my personal impression, but given the nature of this activity, I feel like both men and women tend to register for shorter periods rather than stay registered long-term.
That’s only my impression, though—there’s no evidence to back it up.
It seems like new users of both genders are always joining, especially since Patro appears to have broadened the entry point.

It may seem like they’re running campaigns all year round, but those are campaigns for existing members, so I don’t think they really match what the person asking the question is talking about.
I also think they’ve been putting a lot of effort into attracting new members, and some men who realized that dating apps are full of agencies and that they can’t meet genuine women there have discovered that they can meet them through a dating club.
Then, when they look into which dating club is best, they see that Universe Club is the largest, which makes them feel reassured—and that seems to be what leads them to sign up.
That’s probably why the number of new male members is increasing.
However, unlike other dating clubs, Universe Club doesn’t really tell men things like, “You should do this,” “Please do that,” or “This is how you’re supposed to behave.”
So perhaps more men are behaving as they would on dating apps, leaving women—including the person asking the question—confused and frustrated.
Maybe they should make it clearer that dating clubs are fundamentally different from dating apps.
But I suppose the fact that they don’t do that is both one of Universe Club’s strengths—men have it easy—and one of its weaknesses—women have a harder time.
