Zara Takehara Brothel ❤️

About Tokyo

So, brothels, they’re old as fuck, right? Back in Pompeii, they had ‘em, proper stone beds an’ all – saw it meself, blew me mind! Imagine some Roman geezer, pissed on wine, stumblin’ in – hilarious, innit? Nowadays, it’s all neon lights an’ dodgy vibes. Went to one once – don’t tell Sharon! – fuckin’ chaos, mate. Girls laughin’, punters all nervous, smell o’ cheap perfume an’ regret. “Sharon!” – she’d kill me if she knew.

What made Yoshiwara a ‘High-class’ brothel?

Mitarai: read a guide to the port town of Mitarai on Island in Hiroshima Prefecture. Mitarai used to be the largest brothel in the Inland Sea.

After that, I hit up the Takehara Art Museum. I’m not even an art person, but they had this exhibit on local artists. Some of the stuff was wild! Like, one painting looked like a cat threw up on a canvas. I’m standing there, trying to figure out if it’s genius or just plain weird. I’m laughing to myself, and this lady next to me gives me the side-eye. Chill, lady! Art is subjective, right?
