Geisha 101



First of all [ Let's explain what is a GEISHA ]

Gueisha are japanese women how study the anciant tradiction of the art of the seduction, dance and sing, and been caracterized by their unique tog and makeup. And worth highlighting that a real geisha doesn't have any sexuality relation with their clients. Those women might even flert, but it should never pass it. For just make it clear, they're not prostitutes.


Thermology [Geisha, Geiko, Geigi ]

The term "geisha" is compost of two japannese words gei (in japanese ) with means "art" and sha (in japanese ), with respectively means "art" and "persons who does" or "to be employed in". The most literal translation of geisha to english would be something like "artist".
But the geishas can recive differents names depending of the region in Japan.

[WTF!? - I will explain it better.]

Like in most countries they also have variantions on the language, the dialects or so called Japonic Languages. Therefore, geisha (in japanese 芸者), geigi (in japanese 芸妓) or geiko (in japanese 芸子) mean the same. However geiko it's how the japanese in Kyoto call the geishas. City where has stronger and older tradition on that art.
