By the way, since you're going over there... I heard that japanese prostitutes won't do it with "gaijin" clients, for prostitutes a "gaijin" will have to go for chinese, korean, russian, or other immigrants, or at least that's only in Tokyo and only in the yakuza owned bars. Will you find out if that's true and let me know? That way I'll know whether to start saving for a japan trip. But if you're in the service, you're most likely going to Okinawa, and I heard they're okay with gaijin clients, just that they tend to cry "rape" once in a while so watch out for that.
