Tokyo Fetish Clubs

Joan Sinclair the author of Pink Box helps provide the introduction to Radar's look at Japanese fetish clubs:

"The clubs are a reflection of modern Japan," writes Sinclair, "where the rules are written out, prices are not negotiable, and fantasies are predetermined, prescripted, and prepaid." But those who dismiss the Japanese as excessively demure or morbidly repressed would do well to take a peep inside. America has its run-of-the-mill massage parlors and topless bars, but only in Tokyo can you find entire clubs populated by faux nurses, teachers, stewardesses, and secretaries—not to mention naked karaoke, mirrored floors, life-size latex dolls, and bathtubs filled with green gel and faux-mermaids.

Inside Japan's surreal fetish clubs, perversions of every persuasion are indulged for the right price
