That was a good read and a very in depth interview.
Some similarities but bigger differences right? It's a lot more illegal and illicit in the USA. What did you think was the most similar?
This story about the RnT business in New York seems to have some similarities to the situation in Sydney

The "middle aged woman with families still in China" is quite common here, esp once you get out into the suburbs. They are somehow working here legally, but are usually reluctant to divulge too many details.
The similarity is basically that R&T massage exists and their are Asian woman involved. That's about where any similarities end.
Prostitution is illegal in most of the US and everything these people engage in is illegal with both the women and punters liable for arrest in undercover stings (which happen a lot).
It's very different to somewhere like Sydney where in many (but obviously not all) the parlours operate legally with a licence.. The only illegal activity that's going on in many is travel visa and tax fraud..
I think it would be a lot easier for a chinese lady to arrive to Australia recently - not right now of course but say in the past 10-15 years, either as a tourist or student. Once she is in the country, the sky is the limit isn’t it ?
And also , student visa here actually allow the person to work legally up to 20 hr a week, unlimited during school holidays too which is a lot lenient than the US.
The other thing I found interesting is that the term massage parlour in the USA is basically meant FS brothels is it not ? Well at least the porn industry thought so and it’s a big genre too!
Those adult ads in Chinese were just gold if you can read them........ haha
This is because the US have an almost paranoic obsession with making sex the most taboo thing in the world.
Its perfectly ok in the US to show your underage kids a Snuff video, but a Janet jackson 0.5 second boob slip at the SuperBowl is "fucking disgusting", "totally inappropriate" and "scarred my child for life".
Nonetheless, interesting read
Thats why its so popular, haha anything taboo is going to be popular 😁
Remember the video game Mortal Kombat? People lost their minds over it because of the realistic depictions of violence, it went on to easily be the most popular fighting game of the era even though technically it was pretty poor engine for any kond of competitive play haha
People always love the taboo.
How many brothers are looking for the greek experience for example? 😁
I’m in California 3 years now and have been a punter in Sydney for years.
My first week here in the equivalent of the Sydney morning herald (so not the advertiser) there was an article on page 3 of the police setting up an ad for incalls and then they arrested all the punters that turned up. Ok we all can live with this. However they also printed and named all the punters on page 3 yearbook style and your suburb of residence.
When I read that article, I said I’m staying on the straight and narrow here. It is not like Sydney.
Guess we're lucky huh
