What are you thoughts?

It has been dangerous for some and Ms. Blackman from the UK comes to mind. She was murdered by one of her customers
My JP girl in the 90's actually worked as a hostess at a Japanese club on the Gold Coast Australia and was well experienced in Japan.
I knew a few JP girls in Osaka who worked the scene.
The main danger would be going with a customer away from the bar and then of course he may turn out to be some kind of perverted monster
As far as sex goes, Hostess bars whilst obviously being sexually attracted to JP men, that very much depends on the girl if A customer offers. It is basically a transaction and private agreement between you and the customer.
Some cheaper "low class" style hostess bars are obviously aimed more towards the cutomer wanting sex, whilst other's are a simple sit, drink and talk scenario with the odd hand reaching out to "tickle" the leg.
I would say that with nine out of ten bars, sex is definitely not part of the job, and once again, it is up to the girl and the customer. The game is, obviously the girl can make a lot more money, and the customer keeps coming back for more
I guess if any girl is up to young or old men touching them, it is worth the money
Japan offers many sex establishments which are simply for that.
These would be easy for a non JP girl to get work at. Once again, most possibly could be dangerous depending on who the custoemer is, and then we have AIDS.
The amount of Japanese men, as with other country national males visitng developing countries as sex tourists, the risk is high if it's not on!
All in all, if you have a good personality, like kids, teenagers or seniors and feel you are a good talker, stick to English teaching as it would be far more rewarding and culturally educational for you in the long run.
Hope this helps
