A question about men’s appearance. I’m a woman considering joining, and I’m wondering what the men are generally like in terms of their faces, body types, grooming, and so on.

I’m Meg, a female member. I only have one papa, so I can’t really compare him to anyone else… He’s in his 60s, but to me, he’s incredibly handsome. (I especially love his profile♪) He’s not overweight and definitely has a clean, well-groomed appearance. I’ve never noticed any bad breath either, so I think he pays attention to that kind of thing as well. If you ask whether he’s my ideal man, the answer is of course yes—he even appeared in my dreams before we went on our first date. And he turned out to be even more wonderful than he was in my dream!!! lol Please come in for your interview as soon as you can, while you’re still young (*^^*)

I’m Aya, a female member. When I joined three years ago, there were quite a few men—not just at this club—who made an effort to stay clean and well-groomed because they were meeting women. I also got the impression that a higher-than-average number of them took care of their oral hygiene compared with men their age in general. There are certainly some who’ve put on weight and have that stereotypical older-guy look, but there are also occasionally men who work out and keep themselves in great shape. That’s the type I like, which is why I’ve continued. I’m really not into older men who are overweight with soft, wrinkly bodies… (Sorry, but if I’m not attracted to someone’s appearance, it just can’t develop into romance. Men feel the same way, right?)

I’m Tetsu, a male member. Sorry to say, but I have a bit of a belly and I’m on the larger side. When I saw someone I work with for the first time in about a year the other day, they said, “You look like a pro wrestler, haha.” Men who are truly enjoying life almost always look younger than their actual age. What kind of person would you call successful? Someone who has money? Even among wealthy people, there’s a huge difference between someone who built a successful business and made their own fortune and someone who inherited wealth through family real estate and the like.

Maezawa from the CEO’s office here, answering your question as well. I was looking through some feedback the other day and saw a woman write something like: “I never expected someone to be this good-looking.” It made me wonder just how handsome that man must have been. That said, if women are leaving feedback like that, it probably means that genuinely handsome men are actually pretty rare. Even so, I don’t think there are many men who are outright awful-looking. However, if appearance is a major priority for you, you may be better off dating men around your own age. I understand wanting your partner to be attractive, even when money is involved. I also understand that some women say during the interview process that an age gap of more than ten years would be difficult. These days, even attractive men around your age may give women money, after all. Still, the general idea is that when a man’s looks fall short compared with those of younger men, the difference is made up for with the allowance. So you may not be able to have everything exactly the way you want. That said, many men do take good care of their appearance—perhaps because they have the money?—so you probably won’t be too disappointed. Once you’re having dinner together, you may even find yourself becoming intrigued, wondering, “What kind of things does this man like?” I don’t think you can know until you actually experience it, so I recommend registering first and going on dates with at least five men. After that, you may start to understand for yourself whether looks really matter to you, or whether you find yourself drawn to their personality—and the allowance. Also, it’s fairly common to adjust your desired allowance depending on the other person’s appearance. For example: “If he’s handsome, I’m fine with any amount.”

I’m a male member. I imagine many of the female members joined because they’re considered fairly popular—more so than average—and in reality, that’s probably the case. But what about the men who join? I think the men joining are those who believe they can attract the attention of women like that, even if money is involved. And it seems to me that the more attractive and popular a woman is, the more appealing men tend to gather around her and make offers. Since you mentioned concerns about appearance and such, I’ll be honest: I believe I’m quite popular even outside the club. I’ve had girlfriends who kept saying they were “on the waiting list to marry me,” and I’m fortunate to have had many women want to marry me. To be completely honest, money is the main factor in the club, so it comes down to whether the terms match—not whether someone is popular. I’m more popular outside the club. If you want to enjoy a good relationship through the club, men with plenty of experience with women—and who are naturally attractive and popular—will probably have a better time. So perhaps the men in the club are, overall, more polished and appealing, including in terms of looks, than men in the general population. Also, men who are less appealing receive fewer benefits even when they make offers, so they naturally get weeded out. In that sense, it’s probably much the same as with the female members.

I’m だて◎ゆめ, a male member. Since I’m anonymous too, I figured I’d go ahead and post this（笑） I’m an old man, but the women I date often tell me I’m a generous, handsome guy. They also tell me that a relationship wouldn’t be possible without financial support. I hardly ever look in the mirror myself—I’m more focused on reading the expressions on the faces of the women I date（笑） My body shape hasn’t changed since high school. What has changed is that I now have gray hair, wrinkles, presbyopia, high cholesterol, and elevated blood sugar.

I’m Kazu, a male member. There’s probably a wide range in how male members look, and everyone has their own standards when it comes to cleanliness and overall vibe. So I feel it’s a bit of a stretch to lump all male members together. Speaking from a man’s perspective, I once met a platinum female member whose smile I found physically off-putting. Isn’t that how different people can have completely different deal-breakers? As for how I rate myself compared with men my age, I don’t think I’m handsome, but I’m not unattractive either—I’d say I’m average. I’m not extremely overweight, but I do have a metabolic-syndrome-type build, so I’ve been thinking I should start going to the gym again. As for cleanliness, I’ve never had a woman turn me down after I suggested an adult relationship (intimate), nor has anyone ever suddenly stopped responding to me, so I believe I meet the basic standard. Writing this has made me realize that men are ultimately comparing themselves with the people they usually associate with. That may be why they can’t really give any answer other than, “I think I’m average.”
