Hello. I’m a woman in my early 20s considering joining, and I have two questions.

Maezawa from Shacho-shitsu here as well. Thank you for your question. Now, while the state of emergency is in effect, is your chance. It’s fine if you only want dinner dates, and it’s also possible not to show your face. Under normal circumstances, if you only want dinner dates, you won’t receive any offers unless you’re exceptionally attractive. So if you feel you’re unlikely to receive an offer, you won’t meet the interview criteria and will probably be rejected at the interview. Let me say it again: now is your chance to register. Just a little advice: You never know where or when someone might fall in love. Even if the other person is an older man, it’s still possible you could fall for him. With that in mind, even if the basic arrangement is dinner only, there’s still a chance you could end up becoming lovers, right? You just can’t imagine it at the moment. So, while you may prefer a dinner-only relationship for papa-katsu, if he’s genuinely a good person, you might possibly end up having an adult relationship (intimate) with him. That’s how I see it. There are men who would be willing to climb that difficult mountain if a woman genuinely feels that way. Lying isn’t good, but if you can honestly think, “That actually makes sense,” about what I’ve said above, then I think you should say so. Male members don’t want to meet women who see men as nothing but money and think, “Just bring me the money. I’m doing you the favor of having dinner with you, so that should be enough.” But when it comes to someone who says, “If you can make me fall for you, there’s a chance it could develop into something more. We’re both human, after all,” I think men would be more inclined to make an offer.

I’m Kamihikoki, a male member who continues to see some women for dinner only. Even that arrangement works because I’m already fully satisfied with other women. I don’t think there are any A-type women in the club who don’t need an allowance, so I also assume that anyone joining the club has at least considered adult relationships (intimate). As a result, there are cases where things remain dinner only regardless of type. But that requires meeting a good man, and the man also has to feel that he has met a good woman. If you’re going to worry about it this much, I wouldn’t recommend joining. Also, I’ve never seen an A-type woman with a blurred photo. If you’re A-type but don’t show your face, I honestly don’t know how you expect to receive offers. If you have the courage, you could give it a try. And by courage, I don’t mean courage regarding intimacy—it’s the courage to trust a man who doesn’t make you feel frightened or anxious. There is definitely someone somewhere in this world who will fulfill your wishes.

I’m a confused man in my 60s. No need to worry. I have a 20-year-old college student I’ve been seeing for almost two years now, and I’ve never even touched her. We just meet for meals and to enjoy hobbies we have in common. I may be in the minority, but there are men like me. If anything, would you be interested in making me a reverse offer? lol (^◇^;)

I’m a male member named Basil. Dinner only is possible under Type A, and keeping your photos private is also an option. But most men at these clubs are looking for something beyond dinner. Unless you’re reasonably well-known, who would make an offer to a woman with no photos and no hotel dates? Then again, if you’re not posting photos because you’re afraid of being recognized, you couldn’t exactly say that—even if you were famous. I understand that this is the sensible way to think, but unfortunately, you’re living in a different world from them. Even if you do post photos, unless you have a certain level of attractiveness or some other appealing quality, it’s probably difficult to get past the interview and receive an offer with a dinner-only arrangement. Personally, I’m not interested in Type A, but I have made an offer to a girl I recognized from television.

I’m Taro, a male member. People like you are Type A. You definitely have a place here. Posting a profile photo isn’t mandatory either. That said, from a man’s perspective, it’s difficult to make an offer when there isn’t much information. Unless you express something appealing about yourself beyond your looks—perhaps in your comments—I don’t think you’ll have many good encounters. I may be completely off base, so I’m sorry if that’s the case, but if you’re only holding back because you feel uneasy about the relationship type and aren’t ready to take that step yet, you should explain that properly to the club staff during your interview. It may sound harsh, but honestly, the mainstream arrangement is intimacy in exchange for an allowance. There is some room for exceptions, though. There are a lot of subtle and complicated aspects to this, but I think it’s important to gradually work out those gray areas. And if you’re going to step into this world, the most important thing is to clearly communicate what you want and have the courage to firmly refuse anything you’re uncomfortable with. Men can be surprisingly sensitive, too, so if you come on too strongly, they may become intimidated. I think the people who can express those delicate feelings appropriately, without overdoing or holding back, and feel out the right match are the ones most likely to get the outcome they want. As an ordinary young woman, I think it’s completely natural for you to hesitate before taking that step. As a male member, I hope you’ll find your own way to move forward without forcing yourself. If, after that, you find someone you truly connect with and can build a good relationship, I think that would be wonderful.
