  Akihabara becomes geek sex paradise
Zalfany's note: Yup.. this is Japan ... ;-) Quotes from the full -- very interesting :-) -- text. ----------------------------- Akihabara has long been known for its overwhelming array of electronics stores like Ishimaru Denki, Onoden, Satomusen and many more. [...] When this many "otaku" boys get together in Akihabara, someone must feed them somewhere, so cafes and restaurants, especially for them have opened one after another. At the Cure Maid Cafe, all the waitresses wear maid costumes. "There are seven waitresses at this moment. They've got pretty names such as Pudding and Chocolate," said manager Masato Matsuzaki. "We also have a website on which customers and waitresses can chat. We get nearly 1,000 page visitors a day, which is unbelievable for a restaurant." The maid's skirts at Cure Maid Cafe aren't as short as other restaurants; they tend to be longer and more elegant. So why are the "otaku" so crazy about ther maids? "It's because of the image that a maid is always supposed to obey a customer. That has a sort of healing or calming effect on a guy," explains Matsuzaki. [...] These shops at Akihabara are not in the sex business because for geeks, fantasizing is much more important than actually doing anything with girls. ----------------------------- And one of the comments below the text :-D : "i'm so glad i work in akiba :-)"
