Hi there! Welcome to Gran Erotic Japan Blog.
Today, I will explain the difference between prostitution and the Fuzoku (sex) industry in Japan.
I’ve heard not a few people (including editors of Wikipedia!) calling Japanese Fuzoku services prostitution many times, but these are complete, totally different.
I need to emphasize it. For those who are confusing prostitution and Fuzoku, this article offers the difference and relationship between them.

Prostitution and Fuzoku
Prostitution means “the job of prostitutes”, and prostitute means “someone earning money by having sex”. So, we can say prostitution is the act of earning money for sexual intercourse. As you may know, this act, so-called commercial sex, is banned in many countries and regions, and Japan is no exception. According to the third article of the Anti-Prostitution Act in Japan, “No person shall either practice prostitution or become the customer of it”. Yes, it’s prohibited by the law. So, it follows that services of Fuzoku shops can’t be prostitution, and looking from the other side, we can affirm shops publicly offering sexual intercourse with girls are illegal. Don’t use such shops, and don’t request sexual intercourse in Fuzoku shops.
Full Service?
Can you understand why and how prostitution and Fuzoku services are different? In short, prostitution services are full, but Fuzoku services are not. But, if you are familiar with Japanese Fuzoku shops, you would say “Hey, I know the shops where customers can enjoy sexual intercourse with girls” or some such. In fact, that’s right. It is true that there are countless Fuzoku shops offering services of sexual intercourse in Japan. But, how? Doesn’t the low ban commercial sex? Do the police permit these shops tacitly?
In the next article, I will explain the reasons and tricks allowing this contradiction. Do you remember I said “shops publicly offering sexual intercourse ... are illegal” in this article?
This expression is the key to solving this question.
