nothing like having women serve you and call you master to make a geek feel like a king.

[taeric]

That disturbs me on many many levels.

[JPatrick]

Itd be better if they were naked.

Those guys need to get a life.

"At Royal Milk, diners can follow up a meal with a range of grooming services, including ear cleanings."

Yeah, that always goes hand in hand with meals for me.

"Oh, so that's where that odd piece of noodle went..."

how so?

geeks don't have lives?

I said nothing about geeks, considering I married one. I was referring to the guys who are going to that cafe.

what about the women who are also going to that cafe?

[taeric]

I honestly can't even say. And, to be perfectly fair, I could actually like it if I went. It just seems wrong to me.

[kiwi]

Yes, them and the ones working there also need help.

It just seems dirty. I think its the latent sexuality of it all. In that regard, it WOULD be better if they were naked, as then the sexuality of it all is obvious.

otaku :fly:

I am intrigued by the idea, and for the first time in my life I want to visit Japan. However, doesn't this seem like one step away from a whorehouse?

this is more along the lines of cam girls. paying for attention.

how so? becasue they are getting paid to show some attention to lonely geek in return for a nice paycheck? sounds like it's like stripping without having to take your clothes off. you know full well men will pay for any form of attention from a cute female. see hooters for example.

only in this place they are dressing up instead of dressing down.

hmm french maid outfit.

Actually, that first review is about what I would have expected. Still not sure what feels wrong about it, though.

we could have one dress up like nanny mcphee if you feel more comfortable with it?

[Thorn Bird]

surprisingly, i think this is a great idea. i'd go just to see what it entails. doesn't seem highly sexual, more like creative and fantasy-like. if the girls want to work there, let 'em. maybe it's nurturing some woman thing within. a mother hen, or old-fashioned wife, etc. seems like a much better alternative to where a lot of US males go, where the girls are raunchy.
