Freya Minamata Brothel ❤️

About Saitama

Brothels here ain’t just sex dens, nah. Didya know Hawaii’s had ‘em since the whalin’ days? Sailors rollin’ in, pockets full o’ coin, lookin’ for a shag. Back then, they called ‘em “boozin’ kens”—little factoid for ya, eh? Made me chuckle, thinkin’ how I’d slip in, all suave-like, orderin’ a martini in a whorehouse. “Shaken, not stirred,” I’d say, and the girls’d laugh—probly think I’m a nutter.
