Is Free Porn Killing The Japanese Strip Club Industry?

Japanese culture has always embraced the Americanized Strip Club. The flashing light, the Vegas Showgirl type outfits, huge routines and large amounts of staff, but in recent years, as pornography becomes more and more readily available for free on the Internet, these types of clubs found in metropolises and hot spring resorts of Japan were reduced in number from 200 in the mid century to around 20 today.

Japanese residents look at the clubs as a way for visual stimulation only, so with more and more pornography on the Internet, one is able to spend less money online for visual stimuli then paying for a tame lap dance. And as more and more clubs hire big name porn stars to attract customers, they are over looking trained dancers. Dancing used to be a real industry, but more and more girls are beginning to turn to prostitution to keep regular customers.

The only real rise in customers has been with Chinese tourists. One owner of a club in Tokyo has said,

“Certainly, the low price of nudity in the digital age is one reason for declining customer interest, but in recent years, we’ve had large numbers of Chinese tourists, which really shored up the business. Now, with the Senkaku Islands issue and other problems, the numbers have dropped off remarkably. One busy days, the club might have had around 200 Chinese tourists, but now the number is usually about 10-odd. Whether this is a passing issue with China or something that is going to drag on is really a life or death question for us.”
