Really...this not only shocking...but, disturbingly deceitful.

How many lives are to be lost because of this deceit?

Trans people also have a responsibility...to be true to themselves and to others!

The(ir) Blurb...

The host clubs of Tokyo's red-light district are a slice of the city's entertainment industry self-described as "selling dreams". And yet, with access to attention guaranteed behind their walls, the dreams being sold are as much part of the allure for the devoted actors keeping up the facade, as those drawn to the feelings of desirability they bring. Ryuki searches to establish his identity within the realm of Tokyo's host clubs. As a transgender man who entered the scene on a journey of self-realization - driven by the unwillingness of his family to accept his gender identity - Ryuki finds the role he is prepared to play to satiate the needs of his parents serves as training for the persona he must inhabit in his role as host.
