Japanese love hotels catering to women, not men
 
The love-hotel industry is one of Japan's most profitable. It accounts for more than ¥4 trillion a year, nearly four times as much money as the profit of Toyota Motors and double that of the anime market.

There are 30,000 love hotels nationwide providing places for the 500 million visits that take place each year. It is estimated that 1,370,000 Japanese couples use a love hotel daily (1 percent of the total population of 127 million people on any given day), and one research project has calculated that half of all sex in Japan takes place in a love hotel.

There has been something of a power shift in love-hotel choice. It used to be the male half of a couple that decided on which hotel to go to, but times have changed...

That's a lot :eek:

I would never go to such hotel just to have sex,but if you have a man of woman and you're in love with someone else,you have to go abroad ;)

Well, being as it`s pretty common for Japanese people to live with their parents until they get married (and often for a while after, if not forever), there is a very good reason for going to a hotel.
Plus you have to admit it`s more fun to go somewhere cool instead of your boring little single bed.

There are other places than a bed,not? :D
I just think,If a man takes me to a hotel,I think it's forced up,as if there has to be sex...

You are thinking of sex way to special then. Alot of people just have sex, for sex. Both men and women. And especially in Japan where there is alot of sexual frustration combined with high stress levels sex is a great outlet to calm down some. Therefor its more accepted to have sex just for the physical act of it, ergo the major love hotel industry. And ofcourse what Nyororin said adds to that tendence.
There are actually some intresting articles circling around the web concerning the, what westerners more or less describe as, the perverted nature of Japan.
I just think its awesome. Then again, dutch tend to be rather liberal about that stuff. So are most belgians. ;)

Actually not much. In a rabu hoteru, you can choose between a "stay" (2 or 3 hours) or a "night" (till the morning). The price (for 2 persons) of a stay is around 4000en, the night is 7000en. Obviously, the prices change depending on which hoteru you choose: usually, the weirdest hotels cost much more than the normal ones.

Well, in a hotel room there is not only a bed, but also a television with tons of channels, a luxurious bath, and some hotels have also a movie/videogame rental service... but basically you go to a rabu hoteru just to have sex. But if a man asked you to go to a hotel, you could always deny, right? So if a couple goes to a rabu hoteru, they both want to have sex, nothing is forced!
