Someone I know found out through a male member that I’m registered with Universe.

I’m Taro, a male member. Even though Universe has a large membership, there are still only so many members, so this is quite a rare situation. I wonder if you happened to meet a man who was a Universe member through some community or something. Either way, this is an emergency. First of all, never admit to anything. Even if you’re confronted with undeniable evidence, deny it. Apparently, in the adult entertainment industry, there are people who get paid to pose for photos and videos while pretending to be women who work there. They don’t actually serve customers; when someone makes an inquiry, they supposedly say the person is off that day and recommend someone else instead. They told me they get paid for each inquiry. I don’t know whether it’s true, but it sounds plausible. You could say that’s what Universe is doing too. At the same time, report it to the club. Tell them everything you know and ask them to hide the profiles of any male members who may be involved. That male member is clearly violating the rules, so if they can identify him, he may even be subject to expulsion. Dating clubs aren’t extremely risky, but they do carry a certain level of risk. So when you’re facing a crisis, it’s better to have the mindset to fight back instead of panicking. It’s kind of like how you respond if you’re groped on your commute. Girls who are used to dealing with it will grab the person’s hand and shout, but they say adding a slight twist makes it more effective. That’s the kind of world we live in. Don’t get so complacent that you lose your instincts.

I’m Paper Airplane, a male member. That acquaintance of yours sounds like a male member as well. Even if he isn’t, the fact that he knows about the club makes him cut from the same cloth. It’s not exactly something you can go around telling everyone about. And honestly, most people who hear about it probably aren’t that interested. They don’t really understand it, and likely don’t care anyway.

I’m だて◎ゆめ, a male member. How about making your profile public for as short a time as possible—once you meet a man you feel you could pursue a relationship with, you could suspend your membership or blur your profile while you’re seeing him.
