. regulation and the logic of the household
European and Chinese ships dropped their anchors at the nearby island port of Hirado, where the Dutch East India Company eventually established a trading post in 1609. While stationed at Hirado, foreigners often formed sexual relationships with local women. Sometimes these liaisons were temporary: if a sailor found himself stranded in port during the typhoon season, he could strike a deal with an unmarried girl’s parents and purchase her companionship for a period of weeks or months. After a few summers engaged in this type of work, a girl could acquire enough money to complete her trousseau, at which point she would marry and retire from the business of selling sex.9 In other instances, traders stationed for longer periods took women as concubines or entered into marriage agreements. The diversity of options available to foreign residents resulted in some unorthodox arrangements. The Dutch trader Cornelis van Nijenroode, appointed chief factor of the Dutch trading post in 1623, carried on simultaneous affairs with two Japanese women and had a daughter with each.10 Zheng Zhilong, a Hokkien trader who did business with the Dutch East India Company, established a more conventional family. He married a local woman and made their son, Zheng Chenggong (better known in English as Coxinga), heir to his piratical empire.11 The Englishman William Adams, who entered the service of the first shogun, Tokugawa Ieyasu, split the difference: he married a Honshu post-station headman’s daughter but also kept a concubine in Hirado.12

From the correspondence between the Portuguese King João III and the Vatican Pope, it is apparent that the Christian daimyo sold women into slavery in exchange for the Jesuits' gun powder, at a rate of 50 baptized Japanese girls for a barrel of saltpeter.

Kenya’s big men quickly established a leisurely lifestyle aspired to by all Europeans in the colony. On their estates or farms or in European neigh-borhoods in Nairobi, every white settler in the colony was a lord to some extent, particularly in relationship to the African population. They all had domestic servants, though the wealthier families would have dozens. Some servants would have but a single responsibility, like tending a favorite rose garden or, as in the case of Karen Blixen, carrying the lady’s favorite shawl and shotgun. They enjoyed game hunting and sport facilities, with the Nairobi racetrack and polo grounds being one of the most popular European social spots in town. Beyond such gentrified leisure, these privileged men and women lived an absolutely hedonistic lifestyle, filled with sex, drugs, drink, and dance, followed by more of the same. In Nairobi, where some settlers lived a full-time urban, professional life, they congregated in the Muthaiga Club, also known as the Moulin Rouge of Africa. They drank champagne and pink gin for breakfast, played cards, danced through the night, and generally woke up with someone else’s spouse in the morning. At the Norfolk Hotel, better known as the House of Lords, settlers rode their horses into the Lord Delamere Bar, drank heavily, and enjoyed Japanese prostitutes from the local brothel. Outside of Nairobi part of the highlands became the notorious Happy Valley, where weekend house guests were often required to exchange partners, cocaine and morphine were distributed at the door, and men and women compared their sexual notes when the debauchery was over. The colony’s settlers were notorious worldwide for their sexual high jinks, and the running joke in Britain became, “Are you married or do you live in Kenya?
