would you date a stripper?
Posted: 1/7/2008 3:08:43 PM
Yes I would. Since I don't frequent strip clubs if I found myself interested in a woman it would be outside of such a place. If the question of dating came up it would only be after I found such a woman to be intelligent and able to hold my interest. At which point how she's making her money is far less important.

Would I be completely comfortable about it, likely not at first but I have a fairly simple rule in a relationship. Be honest. If she were to be comfortable enough to be with me take the time and choose to come home to me, what does it matter where she works. Of course if she wanted to stop and choose another career I would probably be even more supportive LOL. But the truth of the matter is we make choices some good some bad. Just assuming the nature of a person based on one choice is as foolish as judging them only on their apperance.

...yes, I too would 'date a stripper' - so long as (she) wasn't sleeping around - or 'doing' on the side - after hours :)
...I think it would be a big turn on as well - most 'strippers' are sexy ;)

Well, we are guys. If anyone is interested I read this really good book written by Nadine Strossen (former president of the ACLU) called Defending Pornography: Free Speech, Sex and the Fight for Women's Rights and it took a good look at the paternalistic nature of the argument against womens' role in the sex trade (strippers, porn, etc) and how women should have the right to be able to decide their course of action and how the counter-argument, that women are nothing but exploited, actually works against women, and makes it seem that they need to be protected for the choices they make for themselves. It was an interesting read.

I would....and have. For a lot of people in that profession, it is only about the money. They are just like you and me and everyone else in the world. Not everythign is all about sex, drugs, rock & roll....A good number of them live ordinary lives like us, they just happen to have a job that most people find issues with.

And for the record....I didn't meet the one I dated at a strip club. I've never once been in one. We met at the grocery store of all places. She needed help reaching somethign and I helped her get it. :)

Metalvixxn I think you do a slight disservice at least to myself if not a few others. Its not a matter of being "pro" stripper. Its about being pro person. I'm not fond of the idea of people making money other others vices or the effect on oneself that often occurs when doing so. But just by virtue of doing such a thing doesn't always mean the person is bad.

As has been said they are people too. I would not date a stripper because she's a stripper, or because she has the looks of a stripper. My point was by the time I knew she was a stripper the issue is would I "disqualify" her because of it, to my mind no. A bad choice does not forever condemn someone or at least should not.

yes ..ive known several and the truth is... lots of them are just trying to make a living or take care of their kids ... their job doesnt necessarily have anything to do with the person themselves..

Good Lord Medana, Have you fallen down of your pole and hit your head??? and you call me ignorant, what because I dont want to date a stripper??

Guess what cupcake, its call choices, remember preference can we say that slowly now P R E F E R E N C E, just like some blue collared women prefers not to date me because I wear suits for my work, Im not going to fault them, its there choice, and mine is not to date strippers, not because you think they are beneath me,its because I don't want to.
i love people like you... you are so transparent in your ignorance for everyone w a brain that it makes it deliciously easy to categorize your type of thinking and patterns of behavior. that's like finding treasure in a thrift store for 3 bucks, for anyone who is into watching and studying human behavior and the effect of media, age, culture on one's thinking-medana
and this has what to do with a woman being a stripper?

as for u dating a stripper... let me just explain one life skill dancers learn at the job - how to spot a no no. and textbook case is some patronizing dude / chick that thinks he is better than you or treats you like a subspecies. i mean really, why would any of us have sex or be around a guy like that?
first thing so you want to lump all of us together because a few people treat strippers like a piece of meat, what you do for a living is your business i couldn't give a rats ass if you think strippers provide a valuable service to the community, because you dance naked and extract money from suckers who you think is there to " talk" because they are lonely at home

I don't find what you do is entertainment, a bunch of horny guys trying so desperately to pick up a stripper after she extracts his cash , actually thats entertainment watching or listening to these suckers whine about how the average stripper wants nothing to do with them after there cash is gone, booo hooooo hooooooo

Yup... been ther/done that..guess it's just like asking "would you date a bouncer?"
Both are in a nightclub, exposed to countless attractive members of the opposite sex, hitting on them all the time, coming home at 5AM all the time.. I think the question SHOULD be.. "Are You secure/confident in yourself to date a stripper" THERE is where the answers get interesting, and that knot in the throat is hard-pressed to get past that collar & tie

I'm an actor, a director, a cabaret singer, a former stuntman - stripping is just another form of performance art.

If I met a stripper and she was willing to date an actor/director/cabaret singer, I date her.

Since we're both in the performing arts, we should have something in common.

To medana,
Would you rather i be more verbose in my opinions? Would you rather I used my ass instead of my brain, so that you dont feel the need to be so defensive? You have a vested interest here medana. It wouldnt do for people of my opinion to shine a light on the seedy practices that go on in said strip clubs would it? coming from Romania,.. you should know all about the organized crime that goes on in the sex indusrtry, even if its just general knowledge.
And lets not mince words here, strip clubs are the 'respectable' end of the sex industry. In a very stylised way, those strippers are still selling a form of sex. You know it, i know it, everyone knows it.
If you can convince others that theres nothing wrong with a woman selling an idealised form of her sexuality, then good for you,.. but dont dress it up as some form of liberalisation of the female form or female psyche or female sexuality. Its actually bondage of a sort. it keeps women tied into the old sterotypical views of women. dancing around skyclad in a Wiccan ceremony may be liberating for the feminine force Medana, but working for 'the man'.. in a male bastion like Spearmint Rhino,.. is not, and you know it. Was that educated enough for you, Hunny? ?


yes, that was wonderfully well put together, thank u

it still does not bring up any real and valid arguments.

am i defensive? i am not saying i am not.

do i know about organized crime, coming from romania? u betcha i do. i still never come across problems in the club. it's easy. i don't buy drugs, solicit drugs, prostitute or hang out w any bad people. life is too short, and i have no time for drama. i reinstate - my club is very upscale and very clean, NEVER had such problems. no manager has ever even given me a hint about doing him any 'favors' either. my club makes money off alcohol, the club does NOT charge me per dance, i TIP OUT at the end of the night, which goes according to how much i made and how GOOD the staff was to me, not how baaaaad.

i also do not work for 'da man', whatever that means. i work for myself. i am there for myself also, and i love my job, i do not let people mistreat me. it's a boundary issue: STRIPPING IS WHAT U MAKE IT.

i care more about going home happy then money. for example. tonight i made absolutely no money at all, i actually left in deficit. i still turned down the guy that offered me 500 to have sex w him. or the guy that offered me 2 grand on saturday, or the guy that offered me 200 yesterday (to whom i also told my outfit cost more than that)

Hello cherryblossom3, my that is a long monicer.... As to your question would you date a stripper...... What if it was your cousin and she approached you at the country club at your eldest brother's wedding and asked, you are the only one in the family that I can trust, "would you come to route 88 and watch me dance" I was appalled and at the same time inspired. I'll be et she is an actress but the senerio was so strange to me that I did not show up at club 88. I am not so knowledgeable as to be able to watch my cousin stripping. On another hand I have dated girls that enjoy watching other girls on stage/////////////and I thought they were just trying to warm me up. May-be a little perverted. I think the opperative notion here is that we accept people and there life styles as they are, I cannot fall in love with a women and expect them to change. I am not playing the devils advocate, I would probally not want to date a stripper but I would not judge her. Hope this helps ssarg

I've been to a few gentleman's clubs for a friends bachelor party or something like that, and I always know that in the end they're really not interested in me because they're like my wit and personality or they find me physically attractive, but they're flirting with me because they're trying to get money out of me for a dance or something to that effect. In the end it actually makes me a bit sad at the end of the night to know they're really not interested in me because of who I am, but because I have a wad of cash in my pocket (or they hope I do).


earth to cyrano:

WE ARE AT WORK!

let me explain this to u. say u r a motorcycle mechanic. a guy comes in as customer.. are u nice? do u try to convince him to fix his bike there, and not go across the street at the other shop? ARE U IN IT FOR THE MONEY???

jeeesus christ, if u meet ANYONE at their work place, i don't care if its the public bathroom, its called good customer service, and trying to get thru to pay ur bills.

why do people dont get that always amazes me.

we are paid to party and entertain. not all men buy dances, plenty pay us just to hang out and conversate. doesnt mean we fake it, just that WE FOCUS OUR ATTENTION WHERE IT PAYS OFF FINANCIALLY, BECAUSE WE ARE AT WORK, AND IT COSTS US TO BE THERE.

yes, we pay the club a stage fee to get in, and tip out also, at the end of the night. so, not only did i spend money out of my pocket hoping i will make more back, but there are 3-5 people that cross their fingers i make bank, so i can tip them at the end of my shift, so they can go home and pay their bills and support their families.

it might look like all party and fun and games to customers, but, like any job, it comes w certain ties and responsibilities.

i might think someone is cute, i might enjoy myself more w that person, i might even give away couple free dances just cause i feel like it, even if its gonna cost me a bit, because i choose to, but... when u walk into a bar, u don't expect the bartender to hang w u and ignore making tips all night, or pick up and cover ur tab. he or she might be nice and friendly, they still expect u to tip them and pay for what u order.

have there been times i found a date in there? yes, there r exceptions, while very few and in-between. i'd say about 4 guys in two years, which really means 4 out of maybe 4,000 or so

Hell no. I could never trust a stripper. They have no respect for there body if they let the world see it just like porn stars have no respect for themselves.
