A look inside the sex industry


This week, former sex worker Ayumi Sakai, now a writer, reports on how lucrative the sex business is.

"Money never betrays me."

Of the more than 2,000 girls I have met over the years, the quote above is quite striking. It comes from a veteran who had been working at a "soapland" in Yoshihara for five years.



From an early age, her life has been nothing but a series of betrayals, she told me. Her father abandoned her when she was just a kid. Her boyfriend suddenly disappeared from her life. She could no longer believe in anything, and ended up at a place where she could make money with her body.

As for myself, I have worked at various jobs in the sex industry since turning 18. I started doing this line of work because the man I was in love with had made me work at a sex massage parlor. Eventually, I fell in love with the money. Well, to be more accurate, I do not mean that I was in love with the money itself, but rather I got satisfaction and felt confident in myself for earning money with my body.

Sex industry worth 2.5 tril yen a year

The sex industry is estimated to be worth 2.5 trillion yen a year. That's a lot of male desires. What makes women jump into the industry one after another?

I interviewed girls working at soaplands, "deli-heru" (call girl services), pink salons (oral sex), and SM clubs to see if it was just about a paycheck, or whether their values and inner feelings played a part.

"The reason I got into this business? It's because I wanted more money," said Yu who works at a soapland in Yoshihara, as she exhales the smoke from her menthol cigarette. She was working as a receptionist at an IT company, but decided to quit after six months. She then dived into the sex industry and has been there ever since. She is rather small, but has impressive big breasts. She makes about 800,000 yen a month working two or three days a week.

The fee at her soapland is 50,000 yen. That breaks down into 15,000 yen for bathing and 35,000 yen for the service fee, which is her part. "I usually do 3-4 customers a day, so I am making more than 100,000 yen," Yu says. "But I have to pay the owner of the establishment a perceneforum.xxxe, which is about 20,000 yen per day. It's supposed to be for 'expenses.'"

These expenses are towels and lotions used to accommodate men. The girls have a contract which obliges them to pay these expenses. The contract states that the girls are not actually employees of the soapland. Technically speaking, the owner of the place is only renting the rooms to the girls. So in order to prove that the girls are not employees to the police and tax authorities, the owner collects the expenses from the girls.

"At the moment I am going out with a guy who used to be one of my customers," said Yu. "I support him, so I have no intention to retire anytime soon. When I give him the money that I earned, he gets really happy and it makes me feel good that someone needs me in their life."

I can understand her feeling as I have gone through the same seforum.xxxe in my life. Many girls who get into the industry share the same sentiments of "I am worthless" or "Nobody wants me." So when they are able to look after someone with their earnings, their heart is fulfilled.

Call girl services are next level

A lot of girls who work at soaplands move onto "deli-heru" (call girl "delivery") which emerged after a new law was enacted in 1999.

Satsuki, 22, is one of those girls. She had appeared in porn, and had worked at a soapland before she became a call girl. Her agency is high end and charges 45,000 yen for 90 minutes, while most of the "deli-heru" in Tokyo charge about 10,000 yen for 30 minutes. She resembles a model with her long arms and legs.

"My boyfriend is a club host and works at night. So I wanted to work at nighttime as well and be with him during the day. This job pays better and is a lot easier than the soapland," said Satsuki.

Of the 45,000 yen, she takes home 27,000 yen. It is the industry standard of 2:3 ratio between the manager and girls. According to Satsuki, the "optional fee" is what makes "deli-heru" more attractive than other jobs in the industry.

As for "optional," Satsuki explains: "We go to a customer's house or hotel room. Many times, men start to negotiate for intercourse. I accept anybody who pays over 20,000 yen on top of the 45,000 yen. At a soapland, the intercourse was part of the service, so I have no hesitation to have sex with a stranger."

Satsuki services 3 to 4 persons a day, but with the optional fee she makes over 100,000 yen a day and earns about 1.2 million yen per month. Her savings now total 8 million yen, she says.

Pink salons can be most demanding

Pink salons are more demanding when compared to soapland or "deli-heru."

Mari, 20, works at a pink salon in Ota Ward in Tokyo. Like any other typical pink salon, her salary is based upon the hourly rate. She makes 3,000 yen per hour and about 300,000 yen per month. She has to have a medical check-up for STDs every month at her own expense.

"I did not come into this world to earn big money. I was living with my boyfriend after graduating from high school. But his income was not enough, so I wanted to work as well to make a decent living for both of us," Mari said. "I decided to work here because it's based upon an hourly rate and not by how many customers I service, so there is a guarantee even if there are no customers."

Pink salons specialize in oral sex. Sometimes the girls have to handle as many as 50 "sticks" (their term for customers) a day, but it is not reflected in their income.

"Other than the hourly wage, we get 200 yen per customer. But that's nothing. Even with 50 sticks, we only get 10,000 yen," said Mari. "But we can receive a bonus of 2,000 yen, if the customer designates a certain girl. So that is what we want, and to us those customers who designate girls are like god."

Like Mari suggests, girls can expect a steady income at pink salons, so for many girls, pink salons are the "gateway" to the sex industry. They later climb up the ladder to work at "heru," and then soaplands.

SM clubs don't interact with other service

SM clubs have their own unique position in the industry and do not interact with other places. Girls do not actually perform any direct sexual services, so their salary is only a bit better than what girls at pink salons get.

Kyoko, 28, was an aesthetician before she became "the queen" at the SM club where she currently works. The club charges 15,000 yen for 90 minutes, and she gets 60%, which is 9,000 yen.

"I wanted cash, but I couldn't think of myself as a girl who was capable of handling any direct sexual services, so I settled with this job," she said, dressed in black. "To do this job, one needs to think a lot, and it exhausted me at first. For example, there was a customer who gets excited by being slapped with sashimi. I had to talk with him a bit to find out his interests, and as soon as I found out, I went out and bought sashimi at a supermarket for the next time round. This is like an ultimate place for many men to make their fantasy come true."

"The queen" has to sit on top of a customer's face, or play with customers in diapers. There are many options that are available for various services, and the girls get half of the optional service fees. In addition to the ordinary optional fee, there is also the "special option" fee.

"There are several customers who wish to be my personal slaves. At the moment I have two. One is a doctor, and all I have to do is tie him up in a park half-naked and leave him alone. He gets satisfaction from it. I have received as much as 300,000 yen in a month," said Kyoko.

"I have no intention to change my job. I feel like this is my ultimate job, so as long as I can be 'the queen,' I will continue," answered Kyoko when asked if she would move to another place in the sex business.

With the four interviews I conducted, I can see the changes in the industry since I left. The police are cracking down on sex businesses operating out of establishments, so a lot of them are making the transition to businesses with no location.

The competition in the "deli-heru" is becoming so fierce that some agencies are paying higher guarantees to attract better-looking girls. Soaplands, once known as the king of the business, are now falling down.

Despite the changes in the industry, some aspects have remained the same since the old days. All the girls came into the business for the money. But at the same time, the girls have found something else other than cash. Obviously, some are confused and maybe depressed about their lives, but I like to think that they are trying to make better lives for themselves. (Translated by Toshiya Fujii)

[Pompal 09.]

I feel like splashing out on a really gorgeous Japanese chick. Any recommendations? For this one time money is not a major object...

I've seen some really sexy looking girls, all dressed up in Roppongi but from what I gather that whole area is a rip-off. Or is it?

Hi all.
Wanted an alternative to Sugamo yesterday, so I want to Shinjuku.
Close to one of the exit ( do not remember which one, sorry ) there is a Pink Salon at -1 floor, it is in a very crowded road and there is the often-seen poster with the faces of many ladies and written 5000 Yen.
Tired of the blowjobs of Sugamo I went there.
No problem for a gaijin, the man at the entrance took the 5000 Yen and addressed me to a room.
After 10 seconds a tall and pretty Japanese came and asekd 10000 Yen more.
I asked " sex? Full sex? "
And the woman nodded or at least I thought she did.

She asked me to lie, took my penis and put the condom on.
After that she begano to stroke me with the hand AND the condom.
I thought that was the preliminary but she did not do to me not even a blowjob.
I asked " what about blowjob " and she said no.
I touched a little bit her leg and she took her leg away very fast.

At the end I did not even come, no blowjob, no fuck just an hand job with a condom !!

I tried to ask at the man at the entrance if they charge a total of 15000 Yen for an horrible hand job and I think he understood and said yes.

Went to Sugamo, wonderful blowjob for 3000 Yen.
I tried to even give 1000 Yen to the girl as tip but she did not accept it.

My suggestion: Sugamo Sugamo !!

alphamale, if you're talking about the PM place you've mentioned earlier (http://www.pm-land.co.jp/shinjuku/index.html) , that it definitely a different place - according to the map on their website, PM is located in Kabuki-Cho, northeast to the station, while the one I mean is in Yoyogi, southwest of the station.

By the way, PM in Ikebukuro is not too gaijin-friendly after all... tried my luck today around 5:30, the guy outside looked at me, asked something in Japanese and waved me away when he found out I didn't speak Japanese. Japanese men who came right after were allowed in.
I suppose it's OK if you speak Japanese, but if not... well, it's Sugamo all over again.

 

[teezera]

Yapetkotto--that one near Mcdonalds in Shinjuku is Men's Plaza, the other branch of the one I passed by in Ikebukuro, the one in Ikebukuro looks newer, and the japanese reviews of it said it was better than Shinjuku (they tried both). But anyway, they both have a ¥2,000 special between 5-7pm, so let us know how it was if you try it (go early). Superduper--read the old reviews of Seiki21, one guy says he got genital warts from repeated exposure to BBBJ there. Besides, I don't really want to have someone's mouth on my cock who has sucked off 20 other guys that day, even catching a cold is possible that way.

 

[Tim S]

Found two gaijin-friendly BJ/massage places in Shinjuku and thought I'd let you know. Haven't been to either but maybe you want to try out.
Both have girls outside that ask you in, but I haven't seen them during the day, only in the evening (they talked to me when I walked by around 10 pm).
I am white and don't speak Japanese at all, so that seems to be no problem.

Go to Shinjuku JR station and exit through the big South Exit (not New South!). Go outside, go straight and cross the street (on the bridge). Turn right, then after maybe 50 m go left into the next street.

Across the street you will see a McDonald's; *directly* opposite on your side is the first place; in the basement of what seemingly used to be a Japanese restaurant, with a little xeroxed paper on the window saying something in Japanese. The second place is just down the street on the same side, maybe 20m, after the Parking garage with an orange sign. They have a blue/white portable sign outside that says something like "massage". I believe it's on 4th or 5th floor.

Can't say anything about quality or girls, but I saw a group of businessmen coming out of the second place, they looked quite happy and thanked the girl out front. So it can't have been that bad.

 

[Gloryuh]

Alphamale,
could not finished reading your thread, I am wondering why do you say it is not safe to have BBBJ " these days ", are you talking about AIDS ?
I thought the probability of getting AIDS from getting BBBJ was almost non-existing ..
See www.thebody.org

Now I am having some success hooking up girls using classified; anyway I will now finish reading your post

 

[Net Expert]

Hi Guys,
Thought I would give something back to this board after taking so much from it.
Appears that there are lots of horny guys in Tokyo needing information.
Although the notorious BBBJ bars 21 Seiki and Hinomaru in Shibuya have closed, (and probably for the better, since getting a BBBJ from anyone but your steady girlfriend is foolishness these days), there are better alternatives.

Tonight I didn’t feel like meeting my girlfriend, so checked out two places that fall into the pink salon category.
First one advertised a bargain BJ for JPY2,000 (less than US$20) if you get there between 5-7pm.
Mens Plaza (Ikebukuro) is where I went. There is another branch at Shinjuku, but according to the reviews written by Japanese guys, the Ikebukuro branch is better. Here is the web link:
http://www.pm-land.co.jp/ikebukuro/index.html
I arrived at 6:30pm. A lighted sign with removable numbers advertised the promised JPY2,000 price, just as I saw on the internet.
It goes up to 3,800 after 7pm, so get there early.
A tuxedo-clad guy waved me on in, just behind 2 Japanese guys on the way in, so no problema for us foreign guys.
However, as a line going out the door is a sure sign of a good (or bargain priced meal), when the door opened, I could see about a dozen guys waiting their turn, so the cheap price does bring in business in this industry as well. Or maybe it was extra crowded because it was Saturday. In any event, I didn’t feel like joining the assembly line, so I headed over to the next place on my list, the name which I could not remember, which is two stations away at Sugamo, but it was no problem at all to find.
Head out the ticket gate and turn left as you exit the station. Make the first left and you’ll see a circular driveway with a French themed bakery shop on the left. Follow the curve till the 1 o’clock mark and enter this street, and there are a couple of guys standing outside what may be JanJan on the left trying to greet you as you enter the street, you can’t miss it. I didn't even look at the name, but this was on the street level and no crowd there. Although it is 4,000 (about $40), its still cheaper than the once-popular Shibuya establishments mentioned above.
The guys are very welcoming, and after you pay your ¥4k at the door, you are lead into a dimly-lit curtained cubicle with a cheap vinyl couch.

This a better situation and more comfortable than the old Shibuya BJ dens, which was set up like church seating, so that you were in full view of the other guys there and the staff that walked up and down the aisles.

On one side is a mesh curtain that you can see through somewhat, and I was able to observe a naked, big-butted girl sucking away on another guy across the room, so I was hoping that mine would weigh at somewhere south of the tonnage I saw through the curtains. No such luck. A fattie with what looked like a curtain wrapped around her naked body showed up, and proceeded to wipe down my cock with a wet washcloth after removing the curtain, then proceeded to put on a condom and suck me off while laying on the couch. I wasn’t into this woman, so after 5 minutes, I said in japanese, “lets take a break then send the next girl in”. She wiped down my cock again, and disappeared. Another girl showed up about 5 minutes later, and although somewhat overweight, she was pleasant and had nice tits. She made some small talk and then proceeded to suck my rod. As there is a strict 15 minute limit with each girl, a guy on a loudspeaker keeps time and it seemed like not much time had elapsed before I heard him announce in Japanese “cubicle No. 1, let’s wrap it up”. So not wanting my money to go to waste, I shifted into coming mode and let it rip. The girl wipes down the equipment again and disappears with the evidence while you put your pants back on. A few minutes later she came back and asked if the service was satisfactory, and urged me to come back soon, then led me to the door, where 3 cheerful males warmly thanked me and saw me out the door.
First girl was a 1 out of 5 on looks, body, attitude and technique, but the second one was a 3 on on looks and body, and attitude and technique was about a 4, so it was fine.
Although this was something different to try, the gfe sex that I usually get from girlfriends or "sex friends" as they can be called here, is far more enjoyable. The reason there are not so many sex establishments for foreigners compared with some other countries is that most of the foreigners here can get steady girlfriends rather easily (the unpaid type), unlike a place like Thailand where you pay even if they’re your gf, so there’s no point in having a gf in such a place, when you can go out and pay less for variety whenever you want and leave the relationship at the door. But in pussy famine situations or for you guys coming here on business, these pink salons can hit the spot at a reasonable price (for this country).

Thanks johnia32 and xander, however Alla-escort comes at about 30000 Yen per hour or more and I can only pay that money only once or twice a month !!
Not enough for me.
But maybe classifieds ARE the solution after all, received some nice messages from Japanese ladies.
Hope they are not that ugly, I will keep you informed.

In the mean time, Sugamo, Sugamo, Sugamo, Sugamo, Sugamo, Sugamo, Sugamo, Sugamo, Sugamo, Sugamo
