While "Geisha" is of foreign descent (it's Japanese) it has been integrated into the English language as a word meaning "traditional Japanese dancers" similar to other words such as "kawaii," "zen," and "kamikaze." Since these other words are not traditionally italicized I believe that "geisha" shouldn't be italicized as well.

So here's the million dollar question: Should we un-italicize "geisha" in the Hey Mama article?

Use, , , , or.
