Guppin1234 909 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Fitness Correspondent" 07-09-03, 02:04 PM (EST) "GEISHA HOUSE" I am currently reading "Women of the Pleasure Quarters" by Lesley Downer which talks about ancient Japan and the tea houses and Geisha. Read it them compare it to modern day America. The similarities are a bit scary, and it could be one way to destroy a country. It was an expected common practice for a successful Japanese man to have an arranged marriage, and marrying for love was frowned upon and highly discouraged. This man would then take on a lover - Geisha - to serve his erotic needs. His wife would provide him with children and taking care of the home only (basicaly room mates). Acquiring a Geisha was a sign of status and success and was most certainly expected. The wife would just agree to the "arrangement." He would "keep" the Geisha with lots and lots of money, keep her in expensive clothes and an apartment of her own, and be at his beck and call. I wonder how many NBC executives have incorporated this lifestyle into their lives. Hollywood oozes this attitude. I would never trust these people with a dating game, they are too fickle and messed up in the head.   Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Guppin1234 909 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Fitness Correspondent" 08-05-03, 09:45 PM (EST) 3. "RE: GEISHA HOUSE" I think I will probably read that one too eventually. I needed a break from that mind set. They were so cruel to each other, and if the "barbarians" didn't invade their country, as they so put it, I think they would have self destructed themselves. Do you see the same correlations as I do with life as we now know it?   Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
