Talk about culture, talk about history.

Calvino once wrote in The Invisible City: "There is no point in distinguishing cities according to the category (happy or unhappy), but if there is a distinction, there are two other categories: cities that have gone through the vicissitudes of time and continue to let desire determine their form; the other is the city that is either obliterated by desire or obliterated by desire." ”
Tokyo, presumably the former. Every block, every alley, every office building, every commercial center, every subway... You can find the knife and axe chisel left here by desire. Deep and shallow, all kinds of colors, longitudinal and transverse. Walking around inside, all your desires don't have to be hidden, because maybe at the next moment, turning an intersection, you can find the block that fits your desires, and it will open an exit for you.
Shinjuku 2-chome Street

The characteristics of Tokyo can be explored from the developed AV culture. But to reach the heart of Tokyo's culture, you still have to take a walk to the Shinjuku neighborhood in the red light district. Today, we first explore Shinjuku's diosome, the LGBT center of the universe.
As early as the Edo period (1603-1868), bisexuality prevailed in Japan. Due to the absolute authority of men in Japanese society, it was common at the time to have a sister in the house and raise a good friend outside.
By the 1960s and 1970s, the gay men's sex industry began to grow on a small scale. Japan's gay sex industry has such a hotbed, coupled with the gap in Japan's anti-spring sale law on male sex selling spring, with such unique conditions, it is difficult for the Japanese gay sex industry to be hot.
Dazzling gay bar posters on the streets of 2-chome
2-chome is the hinterland of Japan's LGBT culture. Whatever kind of cultural atmosphere you want to feel (yes, we have the attitude of scholars), you can find it here. Feel free to walk into an image store and feel the Chiki experience of watching GV with a group of people.

Of course, watching the film is the most basic entertainment activity here, and it is really good to experience it firsthand. In 2-chome, there are about 400 gay bars, and their appearance is a bar, but it is actually a sexual technology exchange center. Each bar also has a different theme style, there are hormonal index explosive muscle men's bars, European and American style bars, striptease bars, like heavy mouths also have S\M bar...
So here's the problem. What if you want to try so many topics? Cast lots...

In the movie "Lost in Tokyo", it is said: "The more you understand your personality and needs, the less likely you are to be influenced by the outside world." And the second chome is such a place, which will make you see your true needs and hearts. So, once you're here, just turn away from the outside world and move forward.
If you choose a bar to walk in, usually as soon as you enter the door, there will be a row of little brothers brushing together to greet you. Guests usually look for candidates through the first greeting.

But the biggest difference between the "Gay Men's Exchange Center" and the ordinary Fengyue place is that every boy who sells his body here is a "top card", and although they sell their bodies, they still have their own dignity and will not forcefully pull you into his car. The rule here is that guests will use their mobile phones to order who they like.
When prostitutes are mentioned, it is often assumed that their tragic circumstances forced them to enter the profession. When men enter the industry, they seem to have a lot less sad impression points, and instead feel that this is a manifestation of debauchery and greed.
Fujiwara Hiroshi, who works as a male prostitute in the Ninchome family, is such a bohemian boy. He said:
"I'm a hedonist, and I'm willing to do anything that makes me feel happy. Being a male prostitute at Gay Bar not only makes more money but also allows me to be open to sex. Now I'm re receptive to homosexuality or whatever my sexual orientation is, and that's what the job brought to me, except, of course, pedophilia. ”
Fujiwara Hiroshi thought at the beginning of his contact with the job that he was going to sleep with the opposite sex, but the former straight man who learned the truth finally chose to do this job. In fact, in Gay Bar, many male prostitutes are still straight men before work, and after entering the second chome, their sexual orientation is probably a mystery.

"Boys" for sale entering this industry
After all, the ergome is the LGBT center of the universe, and it is necessary to undergo rigorous training and investigation to work here. There are many customers in the bar, but perhaps one of the lewd uncles is the one who determines whether the male prostitute can pass the customs. (This work is interesting eh)
This work looks at the face, but not completely. The examinee will also dig deeper into the problem. For example, your life status or dreams. Usually the last person who can stay is relatively strong and calm in his heart, if he is too impetuous and too floaty, he will often want to change the stage after three days, such as jumping from the rough man's muscle bar to the flower beauty man.

In this way, Fujiwara Hiroshi can stay in addition to his 187cm height, there must be other shining points. He agrees with his work, and when he talks about his work like a dog, he is talking about something very ordinary.
"Don't worry about the first time you enter gay bar don't know that the routine will lose the style, er-chome as an international sex industry park, all the staff will give you a silent signal to guide you." As soon as you enter the door, all the brothers who had no work at the time will greet you sincerely, and at this time you only need to order a glass of wine and a good-looking little brother to accompany you. Remember, the more low-key the more social. If you only ask your brother to drink with you, you usually spend 500 yen (equivalent to less than 29 yuan RMB!). ）。 If in the process of drinking, your sex causes you to want to do some shyness exercise, you can add money to change the land. We have prepared a private room with super privacy for you, and the price is negotiable.
Because each brother's charm index and customer situation are different, the income is naturally different. My client range is quite broad, with all ages, most of them between 30-65 years old. Their needs for sex trafficking are also different, most of which are simple frictional exercises. But I've also come across some people with personal fetishes, such as I've met Uncle S, who is not domineering, and he likes to feel sadistic. While S\M games hurt me, it's part of my job and is the highest paid job. Under normal circumstances, I can earn an average of 10,000 yen (equivalent to 570+ yuan) per day. To others we are merely trading commodities, and for us it is the same, most of us are separated from each other, and sex is just our job. ”

"The city is like a dream: everything imaginable can be dreamed, but even the most bizarre dream is a picture mystery, in which there is desire, or its opposite, fear. Cities are like dreams, built of desire and fear. The Invisible City reads.
Erzhuomu, the hub of desire, the paradise of gay men. Some friends said that walking on the streets of 2-chome can unload the anxiety and burden in your heart, that feeling is different from the sense of purpose of going to Gay bar in China to find the same kind, in 2-chome you will feel really relaxed, because your desire has found a most righteous and bright exit.
The streets of Erchome
Ergoku, is there fear? Although the gay industry is developed here, the problem of wearing a condom is still chicken. Many male prostitutes and customers have little knowledge of STDs. When the customer asks not to wear a condom, and the brother who happens to serve him is also a soft ear root, the virus may just wander around more people. When the unprotected, indulgent pleasure fades, they don't know if fear will come to their hearts for a moment.
