This is not a Geisha, but a Oiran or Tayu, a high class prostitute. But they are not allowed to prostitute anymore since 1958 so they are just dressing up once a year to comemorate the Oiran/Tayu history.

Wow. I would agree that there is no need to sugarcoat their purpose as prostitutes but your last statement was cruel. They could not run away because if they were found (which they usually were) they would be publicly humiliated and then slaughtered. As for committing suicide, that is simply ignorance. So every person in a forced position should kill themselves? What about hope or value for your own life? There are still sex slaves today, should they kill themselves as well?

@YukioSnowoBloom Oh shut the fuck up, you're one of those idiot hipsters who think everything japanese was so great. They sold their bodies, they were worthless sleezy skanks, you can sugar coat it all you want saying they were entertainers, prostitutes of all sorts were disgusting. They had a choice to run away or commit suicide

[YukioSnowoBloom]

@xShadowxPhoenix sluts like sex. Tayu of the past didn't like it so choose another word. Plus have a brain not to call "tayu" sluts as there are modern tayu believe it or not. They entertain as geisha, no sex since the mid 20th century. What a classless word you use, pathetic.

@KatjasHumanoid483 Courtesan = fancy word for prostitute. Look it up if you're not convinced. Tayu were still Oiran, they were just younger ones. And like many east asian forms of this profession (oiran, gisaeng, etc.) most could not dress to the nines until a man slept with them- then they could 'raise their hair' as real (married) women did. Until then, they couldn't be full 110% members of the house.

Wow, this song is soulful and sexy! and very unique

[sevenMOons666]

im totally in love with them. absolutely beautiful women

[iiiaxel]

Gosh I love her dress :D

[KatjasHumanoid483]

@xShadowxPhoenix

Whatever! I'm not going to argue with you! I have my opinion on what Tayu were and you have your opinion, lets leave it at that!

[xShadowxPhoenix]

@KatjasHumanoid483 Nah they are the same thing, Tayuu is just the title for highest ranking slut
