Local attitudes, however, mean many most foreigners can only sample, but a few as personal friendships with members and strict Japanese only rules dictate who can enter.
Imagine bars for Gaisen (a Japanese gay man attracted to foreign, usually white, men), for those with rugby fetishes, lovers of older men, only those who enjoy oral sex or underwear kinks – yes, Gay Tokyo truly has something for everyone!
We all know bars are often split into gay and lesbian, occasionally with leather/ bear bars – but Japan has taken this to a whole new level.
