Asia and Asian people have generally been portrayed by Western culture to fit certain perceptions. Stereotypes and pre-established ideas about Geisha have been created for many reasons. These reasons are misrepresentation in Hollywood and cinema, culturally Western gender-based male language as dominator of language, lack of aesthetic and cultural appreciation and understanding on the part of foreign men who have encountered geishas, ​​​​and finally the confusion between the geisha and prostitute quarters and what are the limits of a real geisha. Orientalism, which is a Western style aimed at dominating, restructuring and exercising authority over the Orient, by imposing limits on it and defining it as "the Other" (Said, 3, 1979), influenced the creation and strengthening the submissive Orient, exotic and decadent geisha.

And that geisha are actresses selling an image, and therefore how they appear when they work does not transcend their individuality and does not necessarily define who they are as a person. As a result, it is safe to say that whenever a statement is made about an ethnic group, we should question the sources and influences that shaped that statement.
