When I look closely at the profiles of PJs, I often see things like “I’m looking for one special person…” or “I’ll leave once I find the right person….”

Maezawa from the President’s Office will answer this one as well. Thank you for your question. I’m not sure whether women are aware that some men want to have exclusive relationships because of this Q&A site or because people talk about it elsewhere, but even women who are just signing up have heard about it. In that situation, women who want to earn money may find it difficult if they meet someone like that. However, women who want to reduce their risks may feel that receiving support from one man is safer than meeting many men. In those cases, they may simply be expressing their honest feelings, which I assume is why it gets written in their profile. That said, staff sometimes ask questions like, “Would you rather meet many men, or just one?” So there are also women who answer, “I’d prefer just one,” without having any strong preference, simply because they feel that saying “many” might make them seem promiscuous. So when reading what’s written in a profile, you also need to consider why it was written that way. I think it’s best not to overthink it and just assume that the staff probably asked them that question.

I’m Taro, a male member. I think it means exactly what it says. From the men’s perspective, quite a few people would be put off by a woman who seems to mean “anyone will do,” as you put it. Likewise, some women are wary of men who meet with lots of different women. In that sense, it’s useful information because it may help lead to a good match. Whether women actually stick to those words is another matter. Even if she’s seeing a promising man, there’s no guarantee things will continue, and many women would probably meet someone else if another offer came along in the meantime. If you start reading too much into things, you’ll never stop, so either try not to worry about it—or, if it bothers you, it’s quicker to talk to her honestly. Just be respectful in how you bring it up. By the way, profile descriptions are written by staff, not by the members themselves. So the woman’s true feelings may be different, or they may have changed by the time you meet. I’d take the profile as nothing more than a general reference.

I’m Date◎Yume, a male member. At the beginning, I think you’ll receive offers from several men. Rather than accepting just one offer from the start, you’ll probably date each man who approaches you. But if you’re not compatible or things end after a short time, the number of men you’re seeing gradually decreases. Eventually, you may have only a few regular partners and stop receiving offers altogether. Once you’re meeting even a small number of men regularly, the arrangement becomes more stable. So, considering the risk of being identified, preventing sexually transmitted infections, and how much you’re earning, I think some women decide to take a break or leave the club. This is only one example, but one woman initially seemed to be seeing several men after receiving multiple offers. In the end, though, none of the relationships lasted, and before she knew it, she was down to just one man. The old guy had told her, “I’ll see you for quite a while…” She wasn’t getting any new offers, and although he wasn’t exactly ideal, the arrangement was stable, so she thought, “Maybe I should just leave the club.” That’s more or less how one girl eventually ended up leaving without anyone really noticing.

I’m Basil, a male member. I think she means she’s the innocent type—or rather, that she’s respectable and not the kind of woman who sleeps with just anyone. There are certainly men who prefer that type. Some women may genuinely be like that, but who really knows.

I’m Hikōki, a male member. I think it means they don’t need a lot of money and don’t want to date multiple people. You see this more often with Type A women and those leaning toward Type A. Including women who don’t mention it in their profiles, these kinds of women really do quickly suspend or close their accounts. They’re surprisingly matter-of-fact about it. From a man’s perspective, this could be ideal for those who prefer someone who hasn’t become too immersed in the club—or who only joined out of curiosity or just wants a little extra money. In other words, someone who isn’t used to the club scene. The downside for men, however, is that once you start getting bored or thinking you want to end things, you can’t simply let the relationship fade away naturally. So it may be better not to get involved unless you’re prepared to keep meeting her. Perhaps the kind of mutually multiple arrangements that Kazu often writes about are what club dating is really supposed to be.

I’m Kazu, a male member. Just because someone writes something doesn’t necessarily mean they’re trying to make a statement. For example, you asked your question simply because you were wondering about it, not because you wanted to convey something through the question, right? I’m writing this answer for the same reason—not because I’m trying to make a point. For many women, I think the ideal would be to receive a generous allowance from one good person for as long as they need it. But there are probably various reasons why they end up seeing multiple people: they don’t know when one relationship might end; they want to be able to cut things off quickly if demanding requests come up; or they worry that if the allowance they receive from one person—whether pay-per-meeting or monthly—goes up, that person may start making more demanding requests. Of course, this is just my personal speculation. Some women may think this way, while others may feel completely differently. I imagine that when most people join, they think, “I’ll leave once I find someone good.” But once they actually start, it’s not as though they receive lots of offers all at once and can simply pick and choose. Nor is there any guarantee that one of those offers will come from an outstanding man who feels exactly right. In reality, they probably have to choose the relatively best option from the offers in front of them. Come to think of it, there was a woman I only had dinner with because our allowance expectations differed. About a month later, she contacted me and said, “I’d like to go with the allowance you mentioned, Kazu.” I think that’s a good example of the gap between what a woman expects when she joins and the reality she encounters. So, even if she thought that way when she registered, I don’t think you can say for certain that it reflects what she thinks now. Of course, some women may leave quickly because the first offer they receive comes from a man and involves an allowance they’re happy with. But I also feel that quite a few women leave once and then come back. Maybe they weren’t satisfied with their initial offers, or they accepted whatever opportunities were available and eventually realized that their actual actions had diverged from what they originally wanted when they registered. So I think she simply wrote it because that was how she felt at the time, not as some kind of statement or hint. You won’t find the answer by overthinking it, so why not just make her an offer?
