Meshimori onna : ウィキペディア英語版 | Meshimori onna
or ,〔Other variants exist, such as .〕 literally "meal-serving woman," is the Japanese term for the women who were hired by ''hatago'' inns at the ''shukuba'' (post stations) along ''kaidō'' routes in Japan during the Edo era. They were originally maidservants hired by the inns, although as traffic along the ''kaidō'' grew and competition between the inns increased, they were often engaged in prostitution. Many inns had prostitutes in order to attract a larger number of travellers. In 1718, the Tokugawa shogunate issued a law limiting the number of ''meshimori onna'' to two per inn, giving the inns tacit permission to employ a limited number of prostitutes. ==Notes==
