Selling Women by Amy Stanley is a great book introducing historical prostitution in Japan. Prostitutes were mostly children sold into slavery by families who couldn't afford them; swords were kept away from them so they couldn't kill themselves. The only way out was for someone to buy her freedom, and hopefully to become a mistress (as a "fallen women" she probably couldn't marry). It's depressing and grotesque, but fascinating to read their stories.

[@magnadramon0068]

This was mainly true for women in the red light districts during the Edo period. Originally Japanese sex workers worked independently. But the vilification of sex work by religious authorities, led to the creation of red light districts by the Tokugawa Shogunate in order to control sex workers. And any sex workers that worked outside of the red light district were punished and forced to work inside the red light district against their will.

And somehow this "well if you really love me then you would..." arms race resulted in a weird double suicide obsession. Even thought I conceptually understand it is still pretty bizarre. It is interesting how heavily this whole thing is tied into the fantasy created by literature. To the point where double suicide stories were banned because people kept being inspired to do it. The Edo government was often censor happy but that one I kind of get. It's like if the scenario of Romeo and Juliet was a lot more similar to real life and didn't have those comedic contrivances that get them to commit suicide, so people in those situations thought it was the best way to show thier love if they couldn't be together.

[@insertname3977]

You also have a culture that doesn't shun suicide for the most part compared to Christian Europe where suicide is one of the worst sins you could ever commit. It's also part of the reason why the ending of Romeo and Juliette is suppose to be considered obscene because of the fact that they damn their eternal souls for such a fleeting moment of "love".

[@kellharris2491]

But another thing is that life is sometimes awful. For them suicide was in many ways honorable. So they get 'relief in death' but also a measure of honor. I can see why it is so common even now.

I want to read that vow of not loving the guy. Sounds like worthwhile writings in history.

[@aidariko4030]

I love the edit

[@lightnina5912]

All of this reminded me of kusuriya no hitorigoto ! It’s a popular light novel that got adapted to manga and will get an anime adaptation this year, and god I knew that it was a mature and down to earth historic story but I never imagined that it was this accurate 😮😮

[@DavidCruickshank]

I love all the puns and straight up dirty jokes you put in every video!😅

[@Amadeo790]

Not gana lie, using Sakura for the nail example was hilarious.

[@kirpparilla2649]

You're so funny 😂 i love your commentary

[@jackmountain8503]

Second video in a row I've laughed at consistently 🤣

[@natashaB-P4695]

Accidentally clicked on the notification but yeah I know I'm here hello how are you

[@Linfamy]

Excellent, how are you?

[@ricokd507]

You outdid yourself on this one Bravo!

[@seraph_dalgon_9216]

Is it strange that I already knew much of these details from reading Ateya no Tsubaki. That series goes in

[@MrBoltstrike]

Chilling. Educational. Decent comedic timing. I hate that these are structured like a rabbit hole going from video to video.

[@Mikeztarp]

The expressions on their faces at 14:57 are hilarious! xD

[@Linfamy]

😂

[@magscat3161]

"nothing spends more money than your dick" 😂 I blew tea out of my nose laughing at this

[@iglybo]

[@mystruggletobeadecenthuman5121]

Ngnl the matching dot tattoo on the hand actually sounds very romantic

[@Linfamy]

It's not bad :p
