Your definition -
"Hostess Club - A lower end strip club where bargaining for sex acts with the dancers is acceptable, and some activities may occur on premises." - is not correct in the Asian context.
Starting in Japan in the sixties/early seventies (and reaching prevalence in Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan etc up to only quite recently/the Asian fiancial crisis/the popular advent of the K-OK - which is a variant/further refinement of the Hostess Club concept), a Hostess club is usually quite a lavish night club where "hostesses" are provided by the club to keep patrons accompanied and happy. Certainly nothing "lower end" about a hostess club and certainly the opposite could be said! Bills ranging from US$300 to as high as US$5,000 is not uncommon for a party of 4 or so gentlemen drinking, chatting and enjoying the company of these higher end ladies - with 'services' http://www.internationalsexguide.inf...ons/icon10.gif
outside of the Club subject to further charges.
Hope you don't mind my correcting this definition
