      @professionalprocrastinator8103 Před rokem +22

      The word hostess comes from the french hôtesse which is the feminine form of hôte. The host is the person who hosts someone else, usually at their home or their establishment (hotel, manor, castle, restaurant, etc.)
      Hence the asian interpretation of the word has lost its initial meaning and is now synonymous of prostitution.

    • @PeachyMushroom
      @PeachyMushroom Před 11 měsíci +24

      Nah, I think this brand of "hostess" is a Japanese lingo and does not typefy the whole of Asia. Japanese are notorious for adapting anglocisms to term their various new, subculture inventions. I'd know because I spend a lot of time in India, and this concept of hostess doesn't exist here.
      Hostess as used here does not really have some kind of Asia-wide interpretation. It's just a word, and Japanese made their own take on it.

    • @nannerrammer
      @nannerrammer Před 7 měsíci +4

      Well, if you really think about it....wouldn't the "host/hostess" meaning in Japan /Korea seem more appropriate than from what you would do in the US/UK? They are literally hosting customers and making sure they're cared for and having a good time . how can being a host at a party or hosting a party seem to be completely different from working as a host at a restaurant. sometimes, English makes no damn sense.

    Y'all are getting the wrong idea. She makes 46k a month only because she is the NUMBER ONE. Not just cuz she's a hostess at some fancy bar. So don't be stupid and joking about quitting college to become a hostess. Being the absolute number one in pretty much any field earns as much as her or higher. Doesn't have to be a hostess. Then you will probably think becoming a number one hostess is easier than becoming number one in sth else. But it's really not. Every occupation has it's own difficulty and becoming the top in any field is equally difficult regardless of the field.

    I work in customer service and my coworkers ask how I can be so nice to people after a while, and I always say that acting is more exhausting than being genuine. I try to have empathy for each customer and assume the best intentions and give them the benefit of the doubt. At the same time, there are days I'm more tired and have to pretend to be more chipper than I feel. Watching Hoshino interact with her client takes it to a whole other level. She's in the industry of being genuine and friendly, even with people she may not have a connection with. She has to find ways to feel like a friend but at the same time, she probably always has a certain part of her brain that is strategizing. She's an actress in a sense but one that needs to feel like it's not an act. That's hard to do day in and day out, her business would suffer if she appeared to not be feeling well or appeared to be in a bad mood or just a bit tired.

      @abmong Před 4 lety +140

      @@wonderlandartwork3579 ​ Like any work of this nature I think the lines are more blurred. I would still say Hostesses are more like Geisha than Oiran. Sex isn't in their job description or what is expected of them. It's up to the Hostesses and Geisha whether they engaged in sex with the client or not. There were instances where Geisha did choose to/or were pressured into having sex with clients, especially if it was an important client or if they simply liked the client enough. Hostesses, like Geisha are not professionally trained to pleasure with sex. The most they get told in a professional capacity is to lay on their backs... If they did train in that area it counts more as extra curricular studies.
      Plus for Geisha there was the practice of "Mizuage" coming of age ceremony when a Maiko (trainee Geisha) graduates to becoming a senior maiko. This ceremony was auctioned off by the Geisha House, the highest bidder would become the patron/sponsor of the ceremony and had the right to take the virginity of the Maiko before she becomes senior Maiko. Modern day Geisha nolonger have to go through the sexual part of this ceremony sine prostitution was made illegal in Japan. By the same token modern Japanese Hosts and Hostesses don't sell off their virginity. You could remain a virgin if you want and still do the job of a Host/Hostess.
      Oiran are more like high class escorts/prostitute (and strippers, celebrity Burleque dancers like Dita Von Teese or even pornstars). Again sex isn't nessesarily part of their job description, but it was more heavily implied and more expected of them. Yūjo were your common brothel prostitutes.

    • @LoveHideForever2
      @LoveHideForever2 Před 4 lety +14

      I wouldn't say that a hostess is a modern Geiko (or Geisha), first of all there are "modern Geishas" nowadays, especially in Tokyo and there are many differences between Geikos/Geishas and Japanese hostesses.
      You first have to do years of training as a Maiko and live in an okiya (where only "employees" are allowed) before you can become a Geiko (Gaisha), and at the beginning a maiko is only allowed to accompany and watch the more experienced maikos and Geikos. Of course, the training also includes things a hostess does like pouring drinks and entertaining, but while a hostess does this on a normal social level, a Geiko must have a lot more skills, like Japanese traditional dances, songs and instruments (like the shamisen, shakuhachi and drums), followed by tea ceremony, literature, poetry and calligraphy. Besides that a maiko/geiko-style kimono is very difficult to put on correctly, and it's nearly impossible to get into one by yourself. There are so many layers, underlayers, overlayers and yards of expensive fabric that must be tucked and folded into place correctly (so it's not "easy" to take of and on, for fun times) and and the make up is also very precisely defined. Plus the training, the kimonos, the make up and living costs are very expensive and have to be paid by the Maiko/Geiko themselves (usually you pay it back when you earn money as a Geiko).
      Yes if you reduce it to the simplest things, you can compare it, but I find that it downgrades the hard training and discipline of the Geishas quite a bit... Yes both entertain others and pour drinks and yes also a geisha (rather in old times) can have a patron/danna to help her with the training costs, but sexual contact with men would be so damaging for a modern geiko/geisha, that even if it would happen she would never talk about it (and certainly not while laughing in front of the camera).
