We're going a little off topic, aren't we guys.
I want to watch it, but I don't think my parents will let me.

No, not a prostitute. But I'll let HP carry out that debate. She was debating it in Jap a while ago. Pretty much, they only became prostitutes(sp?) after a WW and had to bring money back to their house. Look on Wiki or something.

yes. It is basically a Prostitute. Which is why i couldn't see it.
IT IS NOT ABOUT PROSTITUTES! MY GOD! THE ONLY REASON SHE GOT 15,000 YEN FOR HER VIRGINITY WAS TO PAY BACK THE GEISHA HOUSE SHE GREW UP IN. SHE RUINED A KIMONO AND IT WAS EXPENSIVE TO SEND HER TO GEISHA SCHOOL, AND IT WAS THE ONLY WAY SHE COULD MAKE ENOUGH MONEY.
BUT AFTER WORLD WAR II REAL PROSTITUTES DRESSED IN KIMONOS AND SOLD THEMSELVES FOR SEX CAUSING EVERYONE TO THINK THAT GEISHA ARE PROSTITUTES. THE GEISHA RARELY SOLD THEIR VIRGINITY, IF EVER.
IT IS NOT ABOUT PROSTITUTES. |
