asntp Posted 14 hours ago Posted 14 hours ago I know that Japan does not have a tradition of tipping. In general, tips are not expected for servers in restaurants, tour guides, or hotel staff. Does this extend to boys from brothels? Do boys expect or appreciate gratuities? Thank you for your advice! Quote

Certainly tips are not expected. I recall my first-ever visit to Tokyo decades ago. I stayed at the huge Keio Plaza Hotel in Shinjuku and had to have a lovely young porter bring the bag to my room. Stupidly i tried to tip him. He recoiled as if in horror and would not accept it. As for the boy bars, I expect most will not accept a tip, but a few will - and be embarrassed doing to. Personally I do not tip. Roemer 1 Quote
