For an inside scoop into the more seedy and REAL Japan, I strongly
suggest you check out this book and blog. It is written by an extremely good friend (and nampa mentor) of mine. If you've ever seen The Great Happiness Space and wondered how true it is, wonder no more!
While hosting can be a great way to destroy your liver and throw up blood, it is also a pretty great way to score chicks and practice your Japanese. I'm not trying to give a sales pitch for the profession, because it pretty much sells itself. Also, I'm just saying that you shouldn't be so quick to diss these effeminate men (?) when you see them stalking their 90lb prey in downtown Osaka.
In all seriousness though, it is a pretty good gig, especially if you're a foreigner. Its pretty hard to get a legit job in Japan, even if you do speak Japanese. Many host clubs have Yakuza connections so hiring a gaijin isn't really a problem for those folks.
What are you still doing on my blog? Give the link above a shot and get inside the head of a tall, blonde, gaijin with a golden shamrock up his ass. This dude has some stories.
