The man I see regularly has a birthday coming up, so I looked through the Q&A box for ideas on what kind of present to get him. I got the impression that many people recommended experiences, like singing for him or giving him a massage, rather than physical gifts.
Wouldn’t you feel a little put off if, even though you hadn’t asked him to, he said, “I’ll sing for you since it’s your birthday ♡” or offered to give you a massage?
If that kind of celebration would make him happy, I’d like to do it, but I’m also worried he might think, “What a creep.”
Everyone answering seems like such a gentleman, and probably has a lot of ideal supporters who would be happy with any kind of birthday celebration, but...
Maezawa from the CEO’s office here with an answer.
Whatever it is, I think I’d be happy that she put thought into it, so I don’t think I’d be put off.
I’d probably feel like, “She went to the trouble of doing this for me.”
That said, I do think it might be better to give a few excuses beforehand—something like, “I saw this in the question box, so I thought I’d give it a try today.”
If you’re worried, you could also prepare a small gift just in case. Then something like a massage or singing might be fine too.
That said, some men may not particularly enjoy massages or singing, so I feel like it’s worth doing a little research beforehand.

I’m Fuu, a column writer.
“There are some things money can’t buy.”
That was an old Mastercard ad slogan.
You can buy things with money, but you can’t buy experiences, which makes them especially valuable. And that makes me happy.
(Lol) I’d be happy with a song or a massage, too.
I answered a birthday-related question a little while ago, but personally, I know it’s cliché—I’d love to be in a room and have someone present herself as “the gift,” with the strings of her DRW lingerie tied into a bow, and say:
“Today, I’ll do whatever you say.”
“Today, you can do whatever you like.”
That would make me incredibly happy!
I’d be even happier if we could choose the lingerie together beforehand on the DRW website.

I’m “Make-Otoko,” one of the male members.
You’re a wonderful person, questioner. I don’t think there are many women who think this seriously about the men they’re seeing.
You mean choosing a present without asking your papa (a male supporter), right? That’s pretty difficult.
I think the best option would be:
“An intimate session with no allowance.”
You’d cover the hotel, too, of course.
If someone did that for me, I’d definitely continue seeing her, and I’d pay 1,000% of the adult-date fee at the end of our birthday date. I might even increase it. It’s the thought that counts, after all.
Of all my monthly arrangements, Ace is the only one who constantly tries to surprise me or give me presents. The others only think about what they can receive.
That’s why I return the favor twofold with Ace. Her allowance keeps going up, too.
She isn’t calculating at all, so she gives me small thank-you presents and surprises from the heart every time we meet. She’ll buy cream puffs from a popular shop with a long line, or come at me dressed in a Sailor Moon costume. Meeting her is genuinely fun.
Of course it makes me happy. We only meet about twice a month, but I can tell that she thinks about me a lot when we’re apart.
Ace is already preparing presents and surprises to make our Christmas date the best it can be. She’s a bit absent-minded, so she lets things slip and I can tell she’s getting ready for Christmas.
I doubt my other monthly partners think about me much when we’re not together. Especially at Christmas, they’re probably only thinking, “I wonder what Make-Otoko is going to give me.” With that kind of attitude, there’s no way their allowance will go up.
Good luck, questioner.
The fact that you’re thinking about your papa (a male supporter) enough to ask about him here is truly wonderful.
Good luck!

I’m Dai, a male member.
Honestly, at my age, I don’t really care about birthdays anymore.
What makes me happy is knowing that the woman I’m seeing wants to celebrate my special day.
So I appreciate the thought, whether it’s a cake, a song, or anything else.

Just as Kazu said, it’s not really my style, so I don’t do that—and I’m not at that age either.
I might blurt something out in the heat of the moment or on impulse, though (lol). That would be ad-libbed, so I can’t think of anything specific right now.
I give gifts related to my hobbies, usually worth around 5,000 to 10,000 yen. Keeping them small is also important.
It’s hard to give advice because it depends on various factors, such as the papa, the woman’s age, and the nature of their relationship.

I’m Paper Airplane, a male member.
I think things will naturally progress that way.
Impressions, costumes, dressing up, or singing something different from your usual repertoire would probably make it feel more special.

I wouldn’t be put off by that.
For example, you could say, “Happy birthday! I thought about getting you a present, but I couldn’t think of anything you might want that I could actually buy, so I’d like to treat you to 〇〇 today.” I think it really depends on how you present it.
I believe I’ve mentioned this before, but if giving the gift of an experience doesn’t feel like you, even something like a slice of cake would be perfectly fine.
