karayuki-san

A term for over 100,000 Japanese teenage girls sold exported as prostitutes in the Meiji and Taishō eras to China, Russian Siberia, British India, British East Africa (Kenya), British Malaya (Malaysia), British Borneo, British Singapore, French Indochina, American Philippines, Dutch East Indies (Indonesia), Australia, the west coast of Canada and the west coast of the United States of America.

The clients of the Japanese prostitutes were majority Chinese coolie men and western soldiers in the colonies.

Karayuki-san literally means "Miss gone to China" in Japanese since it referred to Japanese teenage prostitutes who serviced Chinese men in the Edo period (Tokugawa shogunate) and later expanded to all Japanese prostitutes serving foreigners.

Japanese girls who serviced Dutch men were called Orandayuki-san in the Edo era.

Many famous Chinese men of those eras had Japanese side pieces while living in Japan.

Chinese men in Meiji Japan like Sun Yatsen had teenage Japanese concubines like Kaoru Otsuki and Haru Asada.

Chiang Wei-kuo was born to a Chinese father, Dai Jitao and his Japanese whore.

Su Manshu was born to a Chinese merchant and his Japanese maid.

Cong Liangbi had a Japanese side hoe who bore him a son while in Japan

Sadaharu Oh was born to a Chinese father and a Japanese mother in middle of World War II.
That Japanese girl sleeps with Chinese men, like the karayuki-san of the Meiji era.

She'll always be there for you and she's shy and awkward at first you met her but when you get to know her, she's so funny,loving,sweet,nice she have time for you and go through everything with you when she say "I love you" "we forever" "I'll always be there for you" she really mean it and she's so loyal she don't show her feelings she always act like she's happy on the outside but on inside she's not happy at all but she stay to look happy so her friends won't ask her and she don't want them to feel worried she's truly real you'll always have a funny great time with her

and whenever her friends are sad she'll try to cheer them up and she's stanworthy and she's so pretty and beautiful but she always says "I'm ugly stop lying I'm not pretty or anything but ugly" she can't see her beauty but she's so pretty and when ever she's alone she'll talk to her self and act weird because that's how she act and she don't give a fuck what anyone says about her, she just move on and if she ever have a feelings for someone she'll always be hype in class or anywhere she's at she'll be smiling and jumping and telling anyone that she saw him/crush she loves her family and real friends and she can play a game too, she look like she can't but she can do it real good it'll broke your heart so don't even try her but yeah she's kind of that person
