Of men trading on their looooooks

[dangermousie]

So far, all the manga/anime/drama (except for Ouran) indicated to me that if you come across a host or a model, you will likely get gang-raped or kidnapped and beaten or, at best, lose tons of money you cannot afford as he mocks you.

So, Ladies and Gents. Out of curiousity. Are there any dramas/mangas/anime (once again, outside Ouran which doesn't count) where hosts or models are not portrayed as models of depravity? And if there aren't, I wonder why :P

ETA: Oh, I know! There is at least Summer x Summer with Joe Cheng as a male model. I haven't seen the drama, but seeing it's fluffy and he is the protagonist, I imagine raping or kidnapping is kept to a minimum.

Yaoh!! Matsuoka Masahiro (drummer of TOKIO) wants to be the #1 host but also really wants to help women with their problems. :D

There are skeevy hosts in Yaoh, but Mabo is the light of justice and truth and devotion to the happiness of women. It's. *coughs* It's pretty hot.

I remember reading this manga once (drat it, can't recall the name!) and it was about a single mom whose now adult daughter couldn't come to terms with the fact that her mother was dating -and planning to marry- a much younger guy. Incidentally, the guy in question was a host and he was portrayed as very balanced and empathetic.

I'll now go scour my memory for the *name* of that damned manga...

There's these manga, I thinks its name is B.O.D.Y where the hero is a host and the heroine is a student who falls in love with him and then she discovers he's a host and she doesn't want him anymore but he falls in love with her... It's cute. And, until I have seen, he doesn't rape her.
