I've seen providers wave around their educational credentials and it seems like a real badge of honour - why is that?

Back home if you did that you'd probably be shut down as an elitist or out of touch. Others may be intimidated. Granted these girls tend to have the most similar life experiences in terms of travel, interests, and growing up in a city rather than the countryside, so we do have more to talk about.

Those that wave it around like a flag, usually don't have such credentials. However, they believe it's an attraction point for some clients.
The thing is, as soon as you meet such a 'highly educated' provider, when they open their mouth... it's pretty clear what their education level really is.

It really doesn't matter honestly, at least to me...

There was once a Canadian provider visiting for a short time, probably around 2018. We met for payment and she went on endlessly about her degrees and businesses back in Canada... but left me wondering why she was in Japan working as a touring escort (not on vacation), at a lower rate, staying at a sub-APA level hotel.

Anyway...

My experience is quite the opposite, at least with local soap scene. It's interesting still that the emphasis on paper qualifications extend to fuuzoku.

- One was multilingual and could converse fluently in all my languages, and then some.

- Another was going through interviews for zeiretsu, and was asking for serious career advice even after meeting.

- One went to art school and showed me all her solo exhibitions, but when she realized monthly pay as a designer was only 140k, decided to pursue soap as a career.

From an American perspective, a college degree doesnt really mean anything and a masters degree doesn't really mean anything either (dependent on major). And non-medical doctors that want to be referred to as doctor are assholes

most decent desk jobs require a degree and most of those jobs don't require anything above the base 4 year degree. They just care about years of experience, but the HR lady cares about the degree → there are plenty of good trade jobs that don't require an expensive 4 year degree. It just means you'll be out in the elements and on your feet a lot, but you'll make bank

Met plenty of smart providers but none ever boosted about anything, it's a not a Japanese thing to do and it wouldn't roll in the long run, obviously it goes both ways, the least popular punters are the ones believing they have to prove something.
 
Where I'm from it seems to mean "I'm classy and expensive"
I feel like its going to be a lot of things she's not okay with. Like she will say no to DFK because that's above her like I'm asking her to lick my asshole, which she won't do either

None of those sound like they were "waving around" their credentials. They're just making conversation to fill the void.
 
I think when the discussion goes to accomplishments / career, sometimes I tend to puff myself up so I don't feel like such a loser.
Examples from my past dates with civilian women...
"I worked in a restaurant." (actuality: I worked in Burger King)
"I'm a software developer." (actuality: I made a couple of crappy 3rd party apps that earn me $500 a year on the Play store)
"I make a lot of money in Real Estate." (actuality: I go to tenants, bang on doors, and collect rent like a shitty landlord.)

So I have a feeling when a provider does this, this is more to appease herself from the actuality: I suck dicks for a living. This is not to detract from the person... a lot of people actually have lots of skills but seemed to have hit a dead-end in earning potential. "High Skill, Low Pay" I call it. For example in semiconductors, I used to have a colleague who used to work for Intel and had teleconferences all the time with Israeli engineers. But of course being in SEA, he was paid peanuts so he quit and ended up on the same floor as me doing the same crap I was doing at that time because it simply paid better.

In a way, the fact that in Japan the sex workers are more closer to my socioeconomic level (as opposed, say, a gogo bar girl who's the breadwinner of a poor farming family whose father is unemployed and whose brother gets paid $2 a day in construction and lives in the slums) is a big, big relief. I don't feel like I'm a predator taking advantage of anyone, and instead I'm just connecting with another soul who also has hit the "Ah, fuck it." stage in her life as well.

I think for a lot of their customers, it makes them feel better about themselves.
 
I met a provider who told me she was an ICU nurse and that many of her colleagues worked at either Soaplands or Delivery Health.

She said that nurse pay is pretty low (which I think is true) and that she had a lot of school debt to pay off coming from a family without much money.

I don't know if this was all true, but it seemed feasible, and I chose to believe it haha.

For the guys who are willing to drop a lot of money and care about a non seedy experience, yes.

I think the most popular girls are still the fresh faced young girls with less life experience than the guy. Guys love the naive vibe.

Fresh out of college looks good, but a very high educated girl scares most guys, also in regular relationships.
 
Idk, maybe it is me talking as a countryside bum and someone who prefers to have a more "one of the people" image most of the time, but I don't like snobs.

My personal opinion is that spending too much time in school does usually not make someone a more well rounded individual, contrary, it makes them miss out on all the fun they could be having during the best, most genki years of their life.
Of course, by all means, get the education you need to achieve your personal goals and also study anything you have a huge interest in and truly want to study.
Feel free to flaunt it if you feel like it will attract business.
To answer your question, I guess those girls do think it will attract (high quality) customers, or maybe they are just looking for anything to put on their profiles to set them apart a bit.
And if you take foreign customers it makes sense to advertise you're multilingual.
 
Odd topic, indeed. I haven't met many females in any situation that gleefully droned on about their so-called academic and work credentials, but the few I did meet, I instantly wrote off as monumental, insufferable twats and just ignored, permanently. As with most every other situation in life, it's the folks who DON'T feel the need to brag about their capabilities that are truly the formidable ones.

I may go against the grain here but I believe the entire concept of a college degree to be utter horseshit. I have my BA, and I also believe my BA to represent nothing but sheer, pay-to-play bullshit. I paid a lot of money for a pass to get my foot in the door, nothing more, nothing less. Almost everything I ever learned that helped me snag a seat on life's most interesting rollercoaster rides and arrive at where I am today (not that I'm anything particularly bragworthy) I learned outside a classroom and on my own merits...and the few things I did learn in a classroom that came in handy, to reference Good Will Hunting, I could've learned for a few bucks in late fees at any library.

That said, at this stage in life I often find myself somewhat regretting not going to law school. I'm well aware it could've transformed me into a truly awful human being and significantly shortened my life expectancy, but after my many years as a political operative and realizing my inherent and instinctive knack for lying to, manipulating and exploiting people, I suspect I probably could've made a pretty decent living. Every time I have to meet with our corporate attorneys and then watch them drive off in their Teslas to go sip drinks at the country club, it gets me thinking.

never met anyone that does this in japan P4P.

But I heard stories or article how a medical student doing escorting on the side and use that being medical student to charge higher and also to appeal to a certain market of customers.

Well that's what we're here on TAG for.

Makes sense, if the client gets a heart attack during playing, she can reanimate him. Safety first.

This is actually a great point and something I've thought about as well. I've had experiences on vacation in poorer countries where I suddenly became super good-looking the moment I opened my wallet. Fun for a moment, then a little depressing.
 
Someone told me in Japan the airline CAs need a college degree so the standards for work are bit diff.

I'd say everyone likes diff things so a few w college degrees doesn't hurt for the variety lineup.

CA's are hired from new graduate pools.
 
Honestly, being college-educated is not a sign of actual intelligence, as others have mentioned. In modern countries...it's more of just an obligatory expectation for people who are able to afford it. I don't think going to college did anything for me in the long run besides announcing to American society, "Look! I have a fancy piece of paper! I've done the bare minimum expected of my generation in higher education!"

I'd wager the reason why providers even bother to mention being in college/recent grads is because it's a slightly more socially acceptable version of banging a freshly legal/jailbait teen in a way that somehow makes punters feel slightly less gross about themselves for wanting to fuck someone who's barely considered a legal adult. That or they want to forget about the new set of spots on their skin by dumping a condom-covered load into someone they could have only dreamed about banging 30 years ago when said punter was in college.

Like Keihan mentioned for himself, I also picked up my most valuable skills and contacts outside of my schools and their alumni networks. At the end of the day, I paid to suffer through four years of general education requirements I hated (fuck you, math requirements), living next to people I'd have happily strangled in their sleep for being utterly insufferable, and being gaslit by the myth that college is supposed to be a newly minted 20-something's best time of their life. All of that...for access to a pretty mediocre alumni network and to get my own foot in the door. I'm approaching my 30s and while my 20s were a wash, I'm looking forward to making my 30s legendary now that I've wised up, started establishing myself in my industry, and have had copious amounts of sex with gorgeous women who are a pleasure to talk to regardless of their level of education (one of these is a lie, feel free to guess y'all).
