Your Life as a Geisha: The Beautiful Lie That Would Destroy You
You think you want to be a geisha? The white makeup, silk kimonos, and artistic mastery seem like the height of sophistication. But the reality would break you in days.

This isn't Memoirs of a Geisha. This is the brutal truth: sold at six years old, broken down through years of servant labor, trained through physical abuse until pain and perfection become identical. Your virginity auctioned off. Decades spent entertaining drunk men while trapped by crushing debt you can never repay. Your body destroyed by wooden pillows, constant kneeling, and kimono that weigh 30 pounds and steal your breath.

We walk through every stage—from being purchased as a child, through the hell of shikomi servant years, the brutal maiko apprenticeship, to the bitter reality of aging out of a system designed to exploit you and discard you.
The arts are real. The beauty is real. So is the exploitation, debt bondage, and systematic destruction of childhood, health, and autonomy. You wouldn't survive a week in this beautiful cage.
