Talk:Japayuki

Redirection to "Prostitution in Japan" Deleted
This page had an offensive and inaccurate redirection to the article "Prostitution in Japan", which I have deleted.

As the article "Japanese Filipino" notes, many Japayuki are helpers or maids, as well as the entertainers. Most of the entertainers are simply hostesses, at most having dinners (douhan) with male customers. Only a minority engage in the sex business.

Therefore, I have deleted the redirection as inaccurate and offensive. JKaki 09:46, 21 March 2006 (UTC)


 * You're a little starry-eyed here. "Maids and helpers" in Japan are very rare, although there are a few Filipina nurses in Japan. Especially at the lower end of the scale (which, alas, tends to be where you find the Filipinas) hostessing certainly has an overlap into prostitution and, even if not officially a part of the job, sexual favors are very commonly offered for tips.

 * Blanking is not the same thing as deleting. Blanking pages is generally considered a bad idea. If you believe the redirect should be deleted, please follow the redirect portion of the deletion procedures. If you believe an article should be written instead of the redirect, please write a stub. I have left a similar message on your talk page. If you have questions, please let me know. Thanks! -- JLaTondre 03:48, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
