Time in a tea house in modern Japan is very expensive. Because geisha society is unusually pleasant and interesting. The traditional Japanese upbringing of a woman from the upper class did not make her an interesting interlocutor, able to attract a man intellectually and emotionally. This function was performed by a geisha. Who is she and what is unusual in her?
Training cheating
Do not confuse a geisha with a prostitute. At modern trainings, sometimes they try to talk about the "intimate secrets of geishas", although the trainers have no opportunity to get first-hand information. Moreover, it is unlikely that these Japanese actresses could be experienced lovers - in an intimate sense, they could not have more than 2-3 men in their entire lives. It was possible to change the patron only as a last resort. Geisha art is not at all sexual.
Strict requirements
What psychological qualities make these special Japanese women so attractive? Why is a geisha good? Who is she? She is the ideal friend of a man who is characterized by two qualities - exceptional positivity and reverent attention to the interlocutor. Professional skills are also important: knowledge of literature and poetry, the skill of playing musical instruments, a good voice, and the ability to move gracefully. A geisha school does not accept girls who lack at least one talent. In the process of preparation, the beauties suffered many hardships, in which it was checked how they are able to look positively at life even in difficult conditions.
Illusions for Americans
Geisha - who is it? For Europeans, their life and life is still shrouded in mystery. And even the popular feature film about geisha did not shed much light on the lives of girls in this profession. After World War II, Americans were shown not real geishas, but ordinary corrupt women in traditional geisha makeup and clumsy kimonos. Therefore, probably, the idea was developed about geisha as a kind of workers of the intimate front.
Man as the center of the universe
And yet a geisha - who is it? This is an actress who plays for one or more viewers and makes the conversation easy, laid-back and interesting. She knows how to enjoy everything: clean clothes, a touch of delicate fabric, delicious food and a warm sun. When a man communicates with a geisha, he falls into the zone of psychological comfort and tenderness. He will feel himself master and the most interesting in the world. A geisha knows how to communicate so that the most ordinary person feels great importance. That is why Japanese women, representatives of this profession, are paid so much.
In a beautiful world
Modern geisha continue to work in tea houses. Sometimes venal women pretend to be them, but they will never be able to imitate the grace of the world of weeping willow and flowers, aesthetics and elegance, peace and joy. The Japanese themselves clearly see the difference, but foreigners can be deceived.
Could a Japanese woman become a geisha, but, for example, a Russian woman? We cannot imitate Japanese culture, but in essence, many wives of wealthy men from high society are geisha. They are beautiful, smart and educated and can gracefully conduct a conversation. That is, they are, in fact, geishas, although without external surroundings.
