They pay the "spouse" a monthly allowance. usually.
Ah Like every good Japanese husband.
(or does a good one put everything in the wife's name and accounts anyway?)

Yep, the housewives are the ones who give their husband his monthly pocket money, so he cant spend all his salary on drinking with other girls instead of paying the rent.Ah Like every good Japanese husband.

maybe some do but surely some don't ...
When I was there this summer there were a TON of them, they infested Golden Gai as well which was very frustrating and annoying to see because drunk tourists were actually buying into their shit. I don't mind them on the main street of Kabukicho but stay away from Golden Gai, fuckers.
I dont understand them though...I saw a lot of em in Harajuku and Shinjuku (near Don Juan and Toho cinema section) during my visit in April 2017...the Harajuku bunch are less pushy than the Shinjuku counterpart...probably bcoz they are no different than human billboard selling t-shirt and stuff
they seem tamer in harajuku compared to ueno. in ueno they seem more gropey towards girls.I dont understand them though...
There have been multiple occasions that i was interested in a clothes store or restaurant but that i got scared off by the over enthusiastic owners/staff who tried to lure me in. And then i'm not talking about an "irrashaimase" but very loud voices and hand signs and not stopping talking to give me some space.
the more they talk, the more suspicious I get. I do let my guard down in Japan though.I dont understand them though...

Exactly what i noticed. Sometimes its so nice and quiet and then boom, they are there again.Its weird how they seem to come and go in seasons in Kabukicho though - I'm down there for work at night all the time and sometimes it seems there are barely any at all for a month or so. Then a whole new group come in and are back at it again.
suspect this has helped me too.Maybe I just look too poor to bother with

I heard that ripped clothes and soup stains are also a good repellent.
Yes Definitely Russian... (not sure about French. )Having the madman look from hell too.
Or pretending to talk on your phone while walking. Or only speaking French or Russian etc

Anyone been to Kabukicho samurai museum? (tourist trap)
In my group during sword play demo, a big Russian with mullet came up to volunteer...the fake 'samurai' /sensei looked scared shitless Lol.
Russians don't mess about.Yeah, Russian much better. French , actually a few of them speak it (they sometimes come from Francophone Africa, not just Nigeria) so it is not guaranteed to work all the time.
I was purely on linguistic groundsRussians don't mess about.
just saw a video showing what they do to Somali pirates.
You don't need to beat a Tout to the pulp if he doesn't even speak the only language you can apparently speak !
Well, you are correct in that you don't need to beat them, but you still want to.

Speaking of pushy touts, one of these pricks gave me a good hard shove in the back when I ignored his pestering while coming out of Golden Gai a few weeks ago.
