Chapter 1: Section 3: Page 23: Line 27 (312)

 Pitchmen in their efforts at persuasion all but seized the ambulant youths by their lapels.

One time I was in Tokyo and I was walking through the Shinjuku Kabukicho Red Light District which was similar to the district that Miles and Lindsay were walking through. A man standing outside of a red door called me over. Intrigued because I'm far less wary of temptation than Lindsay, I headed over to see what the man had to say. He said, "Do you speak Japanese?" I replied that I did not. He then said, with a leer, "Too bad for you!" I felt chagrined!

I later learned that most of the sex clubs, while not officially "Japanese Only," maintain an informal barrier to those who don't speak the language by refusing translations on written material and speaking only in Japanese. So why did that doorman call to me in English only so he could turn me away?! Because he was a jerk, that's why! If only he knew about my penchant for oral sex and all the yen that was burning a hole in my pocket!

No wait. I bet he absolutely knew those things! That was part of his little game! ARGH!
