Maki from the Tokyo staff would also like to weigh in.
Everyone has their own way of viewing and interpreting papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan). I hope this becomes a wonderful meeting and a great time for both of you!

Everyone is entitled to their own view, but papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan) is different from the adult entertainment industry in several ways.
Adult entertainment: You receive payment for providing sexual services.
The other party is usually unspecified, and the arrangement is often short-term.
Papa-katsu: Two people who are mutually comfortable with each other discuss and decide how they want to date, including whether or not to have an adult relationship (intimate). The allowance is also agreed upon voluntarily.
As Kazu-san said, papa-katsu isn’t limited to a fleeting, one-time physical relationship. The major difference is that it involves dating each other as two people.
I’m not criticizing the adult entertainment industry. It serves an important purpose in society. I simply wanted to explain the difference between adult entertainment and papa-katsu (dating clubs).

You’re half right. The other half is more like a rental girlfriend.

I don’t think that’s quite right.
I see the adult entertainment industry as offering sexual services with set prices, service times, and specified services. Papa-katsu (compensated dating in Japan), on the other hand, is a relationship involving an allowance. A relationship is about people spending time together.
It seems that some people, both men and women, either don’t understand this distinction or don’t want to. But to me, they’re completely different things.

Maezawa from the CEO’s office will answer this one too.
Huh? Didn’t we have wording like this before?
You know, the whole “Am I correct in understanding that ○○ means ○○?” thing.
No, you’re not.
The end.
