Since I started papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan), the people I’ve met here have been gentlemanly and enjoyable to talk to, but lately I’ve been finding company drinking parties increasingly painful because there’s so much sexual harassment and I have to be constantly careful.

I’m Date◎Yume, a male member. I no longer get distracted by women walking down the street while I’m driving. I can drive safely now（笑).

I’m Saito, the columnist ♪ Sorry. It may look different from a man’s perspective, but that’s just how it is. Even if she’s beautiful, seeing her every day makes that kind of attraction disappear 100%. A certain secretarial assistant at a notoriously toxic company—who also attends the events—gets her breasts groped and is kissed at work, has documents thrown at her, and gets called “Hey, ugly.” She works at an extremely toxic company. Even when you tell her, “You’re beautiful,” she says, “Being called ugly is more relaxing because I don’t have to try so hard,” and enjoys gulping down wine. It was striking to see the event staff watching her in surprise—with smiles on their faces.
