Selling off a girl to work in the pleasure district got her way from the brutal reality of pre-industrial farming, and all the other different types of village work aren’t much less grueling either. In avery real way it was about the only chance a poor family had to get some upwards mobility for their daughter, or to get them out of the impoverished rural life. Life prior to industrial agriculture and scientific medicine with antibiotics and vaccines was grueling and often short. Something like 2/3 of kids never even made it to 5, and 3/4 of people never made it to 15. 1/2 didn’t even make it to 1. Further, because Japan had a closed country policy food imports were not a solution so famines were fairly frequent and of course the rural poor were hardest hit. There was also the issue of banditry as the Edo Period featured a disarmed populace. So, in a very real way, getting your girl into town was the best thing you could do for her. Her care, feeding, and education would be guaranteed. She would learn valuable skills to make her own way, and gain a career education. This was before public schooling; illiteracy was more common than literacy. Town came with a chance she could get bought out by or married to a ranking samurai or a rich merchant. In the endogamous classist society of the time that was never going to happen otherwise. At the very least, I was glad to discover historical Japanese brothels, didn’t whore out children, instead of waited for them to become a mid to late adolescent. And of course, I’m glad to not only live absolutely not in medieval Japan, but also in a place where enslaving the kids to become prostitutes isn’t considered a legitimate way of anything. Fuck yeah 21st century!

@@Mortablunt It's just sex. Modern people, especially westerners where Christianity helped shape the culture, act like sex is some huge deal and borderline evil, or at the very least bad in some way. And sex with lots of people, and for money, just horrible. Reality of course has very little to do with what goes on inside the mind of a cultist, I mean, culture. People all act like we're so advanced now and this kind of behaviour is just reprehensible, then they go wank of to some eighteen year old imported from a poor war torn country getting gangbanged while giving away all their money to the love of heir life which lives on OnlyFans that totally doesn't have a boyfriend and two kids in the next room.

Literally the first 5 ish minutes of the video LMAO

The truth was that most of them did not get to eat white rice, or enough of it, until they made it big. It's commonly described on Japanese websites that the dealers lied to the parents, and the children lived in terrible conditions, until they could make money for the brothel

If it was so great the parents would have given away their daughters for free (relying on their daughter sending home money or white rice as a rich prostitute)

me too, but this time not even the well-written jokes and in-depth historical information of the video could keep me from getting grossed by the fact that these poor kids were being treated as objects and sold for their bodies...

Some maybe, but most definitely not, you have to understand people back in the day had a totally different view of children compared to us now. No one gave much of a fck about kids, most families had like 5-10 kids anyway and they couldn't even feed them all.

Agree.

​@@livingmasquerade1418both im assuming?

Especially with what they do to the kids. It's worse than what most people think r@pe is, so many stories from surviors of kids being r@ped to death in front of the other kids or being r@ped by animals.

@@Just_a_Goth I was pointing to the fact that the young girls sold off actually could live a decent innocent childhood until they turned 15, which was normally impossible with the incredibly tough life peasants had back then

@@evryatis9231 Oh, yeah. Child prostitution is _so_ much better. 🙄

Life in the Red Light District was horrible many japanese considered the place a part of the dark side of Japanese History. Many girls died at a young age from stds. They also had to do extreme measures to keep clients from leaving cutting off fingers, writing their names with blood, pulling out finger nails, even did suicide yeah it was bad.@@evryatis9231

age of consent in japan is 14, they can perform sex acts on men even younger, of course, this is also monetized. not that different to now, the culture of "was"

@@bobbobbing4220I thought they changed that recently, and that all the prefectures already got it to 18 before the central government

​@@bobbobbing4220that's a myth, it's 18 in every prefecture so in practice nationally. It's lower here in Europe, here in Netherlands for example it's 16, and for example in Hungary and Italy it's 14. France is 15 iirc. Japan is on the high side compared to the eu...

​​@@ukeyaoitrash2618 Hell, there are a number of American states where it's below 18. None of them are below 16, but it's 16 in more than 3/5 of all states (only about 1/5 has it at 18).

I love the Red Lantern District stories. They are the real life stories that show the good, bad and indifferent players involved

Just another one in the series

There is a big difference between sex industry and sex slavery. The difference is a brothel worker at least puts on an air of enjoyment and interest. A sex slave is just gonna be depressed and more often then not is kept in their situation via drug addiction. Both are just there to get f***ed, but the former is going to make much more money because the average guy isn't gonna shell out his fortune to hump a sad unresponsive girl.

Children are considered parent's property in most places, including US states. You may not want to be too surprised until we abolish child marriage "with permission".

@@jamie1602 as long as christians have any say in it, that'll never be abolished here, sadly.

Glad you like!

"dry" humour, you say?😏

The author actually knowingly misrepresented aspects of a geisha's life. The geisha he consulted, Mineko Iwasaki, has released her own memoirs in response if you would like to read those instead.

The women who Memoirs of a Geisha was based on hated the movie and book and said it was extremely misleading and sensationalized.

Fair, but Memoirs included pretty much all of this in the story. The relationships were more dramatic, but I don’t see a huge discrepancy in the actual structure.

​@@BloodWiredplease do correct me if i'm wrong but as far as i know geisha aren't courtesans, that is an oiran. The book exaggerate some things like that coming of age ceremony/mizuage. Maikos that graduated to geishas didn't sell their virginities, they just finished their studies & moved from dorms (in which they got taken care of by the mother of the house and get to live for free) to live independently and schedule their own performance and most of them already got loyal patrons on their own. I read that some geishas did sleep with their patrons or even become a mistress though.

Memoirs is so bullshit, it makes Madama Butterfly's plot look sensible.

they were.. they had their things cut off so that they wouldnt cheat with the women

i'm pretty sure they weren't "technically" slaves they just *were* slaves

Doesn't the rest of the world have something like that ?

@@hiidenkiuasThey were slaves in a sense but also not because slavery is a caste system. Meaning you’re a slave and can never not be a slave. High ranking courtesans had varying degrees of authority and power. Doesn’t make the history any more fun but reality is far more complicated in ways we spoiled modern people don’t understand nor even try to understand.

@@vistalover9607 i’m pretty sure that slavery is still slavery even if there’s no caste system

Despite how toxic my mother was with me or my sister, because of our absent father, she would never allow us to be treated in such an inhumane way (exploitation, objectification), by other guys. She even told us that we should be carefull.

@@VOlDNOVAhuh

@@starryskies113grape without the g

Yes, it is similar but there's a small difference: Idols are often pressured into keeping an innocent, playful and childlike image to appeal to the pedophi- I mean their fans, because idols are seen as property by their male fans, like dolls. If an idol as a boyfriend, it mean she's not virgin anymore, and worst of all, she has a LIFE OUTSIDE OF HER FANS. Those fans wants those girls to STAY virgins... like them. So both courtesans and idols are seen as property by the men, but the way their bodies are sold to them are differents

​@@LeoDBW"stay virgins like them". Harsh but true.

@@LeoDBW or maybe people are mad that they got lied to about who they're supporting? its an industry exploiting vulnerable lonely men, the fact that idols exist in the first place is because their fanbase isn't mentally healthy. no sympathy there.

@@kokujo-5092 "Lied"? They aren't products; "Haha, deception! we lied to you, these young girls are in fact human beings with their own life!" Seriously, It's not the idols faults, that industry also prey on young girl sometimes as young as 13yo, and groom them into "perfect girls" who can't even make their own life choices, blame the higher ups and the managers who put these girls under so much pressure and sell them to these adult men.

@@LeoDBW yeah? that is the deceptions. they are presented as perfect young single girls. they're called idols, its in the name. most idols know what they're getting into. but even here you've now switched the blame onto hypothetical groomers instead of "pedophi-"/"idols are seen as property by their male fans, like dolls". the fanbase is not in the wrong for being weird, they are targetted as a demographic BECAUSE they are weird and being lied to leads them to keep being weird. its the idols and the idol industry at fault.

Hi early, I'm linfamy

Not only poor cultures

It happened with my aunt's friend, her sister took her on a trip but was trying to traffic her to a pimp by leaving her without any money in a far away town. Gladly she got saved by a guy with a car before anything could happen to her, this happened here in Brazil. The crazy thing is that we are very sensitive about this topic and today even the organized crime attacks groomers, domestic abusers and grapists.

Sadly not just poor cultures ether, ever heard of Jeffery Epstein? I think that dude alone exposes why pedos aren't sentence to death in the u.s

though more than poor cultures, the very rich ones have the worst of it, the problem is that they hide it very well; Like the say: "the winners write the story" ...And the rich and successful are these winners right now, they'll chose the info you're being fed too.

ikr? it's not like this is a disturbing topic or anything
