I don’t really understand why men join a dating club only to choose ordinary women (Standard or Gold).

I’m a BB7 male member. At first, I offered to meet women like models and former idols—women I would never normally have had the chance to meet in everyday life. But I realized that what I’m looking for isn’t a woman’s status or résumé, nor am I trying to satisfy my own vanity or need to show off, so I stopped making offers to that type of woman. Of course, men who want to meet women like that should feel free to make those offers. In short, what people are looking for varies from person to person. What’s right for me isn’t necessarily right for someone else.

I’m a male member from Seattle. I have pretty particular tastes, so it’s fun finding someone special among ordinary people.

I’m だて◎ゆめ, a male member. As a Gold member like me, I can only make offers to women in the Gold and Standard classes. That’s how people without much money get involved with dating clubs, haha. I think there are all kinds of social classes in the world, and each has its own way of meeting people. Maybe dating clubs aren’t the mainstream way of finding an adult relationship for people at the top or bottom of the social ladder. Or maybe we just don’t know about those other circles.

I’m Saito, a column writer♪ After reading your question, I was reminded of something a male member of another club once said: “If she has a good figure but isn’t beautiful, it doesn’t bother me if I turn off the lights. The arrangement will be cheaper, and she won’t have anyone else to rely on, so she’s a good target.” I thought he was truly a heartless person… but the staff at that dating club valued him highly. They say it’s all about supply and demand, and I really learned something about the realities of the world. I suppose these women are in the Standard and Gold tiers because they do receive offers. It may be an interesting world in its own way. I’d almost like to hold a roundtable discussion with men like that. Also, from my own experience, when I attend Universe events, I sometimes discover that people are surprisingly sociable or make other unexpected discoveries. (As you said, they don’t take the time to make individual offers to everyone.) Each person is interesting in their own way.
