And then they wonder why “their women” run off with Westerners.

we think it`s a laugh for a night. allot of japanese men consider it their dream life. tits, beer and a smile, women have little else to offer.

One of them told me: “since you lost your luggage (don’t ask, ask Britisch Airways…), I wan’t to make you feel good tonight”. First we went to a Belgian Bar (I’m Belgian, you know), untill everybody was drunk. Then, we went to eat *…* (don’t remember the name, it was all kinds of fried meat on a stick, apparently a speciality in Osaka), and then i suddenly ended up in such a bar. Actually I kind of liked it, I have to say I was there with three older Japanese men and myself (26 yo) and some very nice looking Japanese girls. I have to say: the girl who was sitting with me was very nice, smart, funny,… and all a men could wish for. Of course, i was the only of us four who could know that: the others where having dirty conversations, i was the only one just having a normal conversation. The girls were continuously filling our glasses with very cheap whiskey… I have to say it was a very fun experience, but was glad i was out of there after two hours. It seemed to me that my companion (the Japanese guys) were thinking this was real, while i was the only one just realising these girls where professinals in what they do :-p But anyway, besides that: “Blenda” was a nice and goodlooking girl i had nice conversations with. Too bad it was all fake…

When i went to a hostess bar i was 16 and a foreigner with limited japanese!! I was with 2 japanese guys and they paid for me, free rum also. I remember the girl filling my glass up and asking me when to say stop…. i didnt. The conversation we were having there was about cherry boys and big nipples, amoung other stuff, seems somewhat more interesting than how yours started

But most people stay for three or four hours and spend a fortune. 15 minutes was like speed-dating!
