stripper bars

[Mr,Fartsville]

I miss going down to my local, buying a beer for about 500 yen. Settling down on my favorite chair. Sipping slowly on that delicious brew. While admiring the lady twirling on the pole. Life is hard when your pole dancer can not be found.

Sorry but stripper bars here aren't that cheap. As a matter of fact they are very expensive!

Canadian Bars were about $5.oo for a pint, last time I went. No cover charge, often.

Aahh, but you didn' get the added incentive of tokyo bush.

They charge by the pound.

What's the point going to the stripper bar other than throwing your money for no good? If you are going to spend on a stripper, I think you should spend your money on the chick for the specific service you are looking for (). Or, in this time of economic calamity (you have not yet seen what's in store this year and next!), I think it would be better to put your money under your mattress.

Maybe this is a new thread in the making... Thread title: What did you insert into girls (other than your boner, that is)?

I actually went to Seventh Heaven this weekend and i thought it was OK. The cover charge was 5500 yen but then they guy comped us for 3 drinks. When we got in they gave us a free drink and then the 2 drink stub. one of the waiter then brought me and my friend 2 free shot of sake. girls wernt to push . I never bought a girl a drink. i just sat there chatting it up with my friend and enjoying the stage show.The girls were about 7-8's in my book. The waiter were nice and i believe me and my friend would go there again.

I looked at the seventh Heaven website, and why is it that most of the strippers are white?
Is it because Jguys like their strippers foreign, kind of like how some guys like them here in the states?

Smutty, there white because that's were the clandestine slave ship dropped them of after they were promised fame and fortune in japan.

But in all honesty most of those girls end up up in Japan because 1) They're ____ poor in thier home country and see travel/opportunity in japan. And 2) Japanese salarymen love thier white meat.

I figured that was the case. I wonder what their lives are like outside of work. I'd like to interview some of them. Maybe I'll do that when I go to Japan. I wonder if they speak English...

I actually spent quite a bit of time (months) with a group of foreign strippers (UK, New Zealand and Aussie girls) when in Japan. It was a long time ago (1993), but I can give you some info if you want about why they were there, and how it was for them?

[candyflip]

EDIT: Well, seeing as you're not going to ask, I'm bored, and I have this unique story dying to get out, here 'tis anyway!

I worked with a group of 6 other foreigners in Kisarazu (Chiba) between 1992-93. We all separately applied for the advertised job to work for a gaijin-staffed hotel named Costa Luna in that balmy (not!) beachside town and a group of mainly Aussie guys (Sydney/Melbourne) and one Kiwi, took up the challenge. Of course, the hotel was in fact a Love Hotel, with a sort of faux-Italian seaside theme - we could scarcely have cared less. Any chance to get away from English teaching was grabbed at the first opportunity.

Our roles included Front Desk, Housemen, cleaning, kitchen-handing and waitering in the Hotel restaurant ("Pregio'). Boring, sure, but short shifts and plenty of Japanese language practice. The pay was solid - for the time. The 7 of us all lived in just 2 small flats that were provided for us, about 5 mins drive from the hotel, which we were picked up from and delivered back to after work each morning/night in the hotel van. Our days were free to do as we pleased, and that meant hanging out locally at bars like 'And Water', or travelling to Tokyo, or whatever we could find. Our Bucho was a cool salaryman who spoke virtually no Enlgish and worked for Dai-ichi Kangyo, our 2nd in command was a royal moody c#@% who needed a good kicking.

So we spent more than a year down there, all up. Naturally, the pull of Tokyo was pretty strong, but one day, something changed to make sure we spent a LOT more time locally. In the neighboring town to Kisarazu, another small place called Kimitsu (from memory), 8 girls from Sydney moved in to a local club to perform a strip show. Kimitsu was even smalled than Kisarazu, and the bar they worked for never had a chance at making this show a success in my mind, but here they all were - tall, good looking, Aussies and women! We didn't know how long they'd be there (neither did they), but we weren't going to lose a day thinking about it.

We pretty much hung out everyday with these girls, some of us becoming very close to them, some not really close at all (for various individual reasons). With the 2 groups being the only foreigners (I ever saw) in a region of over a million Japanese, we flocked to each other like moths to flames. Of course, 8 girls into 7 guys doesn't go, as you can plainly see, and some of us were *very* lucky indeed. We'd travel the few miles to see their shows some nights, other nights (when they weren't working, and our shifts allowed) we'd hang out at 'And Water' together, our adopted gaijin watering hole, and tear the place up in a flurry of beer, whiskeys and (unsurprisingly) dancing. It was sommmme time - and all too brief as after 3-4 months, the strip shows didn't attract the crowds the Japanese promotors were hoping for and as quick as they had arrived, we were left alone again.

To answer your question Smuttynose, they were just like most other gaijin girls you have probably met in Japan : trying to get by, the best way they can. Lots of them had stripped before of course, and had 'careers' of sorts in the industry back home. On their days off, they liked shopping, eating, drinking and f#@ing, like the rest of us. Some of them were bitches, some butter wouldn't melt in their mouths, and some were just really normal, sweet girls. They were all young, fun and not too serious about themselves. And apart from the jealousy (see above 8 into 7), I remember that time as one of the absolute highlights of my 3 years in Japan. I still have the photos and the diary I kept at the time, to look back on fondly. Maybe I'll show my kids one day, when they're old enough...
