Does Anyone Go to Strip Clubs?

[CaptainStoner]

I don't care for the vibe. I'd rather dance with a woman with her clothes on than sit there and watch. I know the dancers will talk to patrons also, but something about paying someone to talk to you seems pretty lame to me.
I do love and respect the grace, skill, and beauty that is the female form in motion ~

I know it will probably come as a shock, but I've never gone to a strip club. This is apparently so surprising that at least one person I know initially refused to believe it.

 

[Kelthaz]

Never been to one and I don't plan to go in the future. Way too sleazy for my tastes.

 

[JonathonWally]

If naked people are sleazy, then I don't want to be not sleazy.


That sounded a whole better in my head.

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

I get what you're saying.

 

[JonathonWally]

If anyone would, it would be you.

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

I have a gift.

I try to get my last girlfriend to dance and take her clothes off like a stripper...but she said it would make her feel silly...What???

Gotta have a girl who likes to dance and be seductive.

So these clubs hold no interest for me.. all you do is pay to get a boner and i can get that free by myself at home watching some porn.

you are by yourself at home watching two dimensional images whereas at the club you interact with real people in real situations having a great time. the latter is far more interesting.

True.. but the end result is the same minus me having more money.

I'd rather go to a dance club where some of the girls have equally little clothing sometimes and try my chances (slim as they are ). I just am not the type to "watch but don't touch".. if a girl grinds on me like that she better watch out

And doing that in a normal strip club would get me some stress with the bouncers and the dancers themselves

...back when I was in school and went to these places, they were somewhat more exotic and sub rosa kinds of places. Used to have live music, too.

Live music? Did you ride up on horseback?

A bunch of single moms dancing around with their C-section scars and bullet wounds? No thanks.

So you've been to strip clubs in Cleveland?

Midwest chick she was, I take it?

How specifically are Canadian clubs different?

The only reason to go in my opinion is just to have a good time and see some women in the flesh if you haven't in a long time. Otherwise, it's a waste of a lot of money and you go home alone (although I've known people to have hooked up with strippers). If you're on the fence about going, I would say save your money and stay at home. However, I agree with a poster above who pointed out it is a real experience as compared to a two dimensional experience online which is impersonal and hollow. So there are pluses to both sides of the argument!

American strip joints are often watered down....as in I seen some where the girls MUST be several feet away from you at ALL TIMES, no lap dances, some of them are even forced to cover their nipples, all thanks to some hard core conservatives who have not scored since Reagon was president. The Canadian ones I've been to...the girls were ALL OVER me and the girl I was with at the time. I mean like pretty much humping my groin, as well as my g/f's. I;ve yet to see any American strip joints that fun.

Plus Canadian drinking ages are much lower than American ones, so going to Canada is a given.

Ironic...in America your old enough get get laid by these sort girls without the law getting involved, yet you can NOT even enter a strip joint because they got booze....go figure, eh? And me and Melinda were NOT willing to wait 2 or 3 more years, so we went to Canada for some good times.

 

[Plomeek Broth]

Our American society also loves us to view violence over that evil sex stuff anyday. Go figure.

The clubs I've seen in America were not strict like you say, but I have read in the past couple of years of them being like that. Thank goodness I went when I did many years ago!

I am currently booking transportation to Canada.

 

[acappellasaurus]

I go to 'em here and there. If I am gonna go to a generic bar and drink, I might as well go to one where the women are getting naked. There's a decent one here, nothing world class, but fun, where there's no cover, and they don't charge for sodas, so it's a fun time, sitting there having a coke and watching the girls shake it.

 

[JonathonWally]

I'm less about the nudity, more into the performance art.

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

Is that why you always take a wad of 1's when you go?

I was dragged to a craptastic strip club in San Bernadino, CA by a photographer I was interning with a few years ago.

The experience was underwhelming to say the least, and I suspect it would be underwhelming even if I wasn't a hetero female whose 9-5 involves digitally repairing naked women.

One dancer had a great body and decent dance moves. The rest were overweight and doughy, with cellulite, stretch marks, sagging breasts and C-section scars. They hadn't taken very good care of themselves physically (um hello if you're a stripper wouldn't you want to invest a bit of effort into maintaining your source of income?) and it translated into their movements. Most of them teetered out on stage in their platforms that cut into their swollen ankles, fumbled some half-ass twirling around a pole that couldn't support their weight, flashed a saggy boob momentarily, then shuffled off the stage again while drunk men threw singles after them.

Most of them couldn't even muster a fake smile to boost their paltry gratuities a smidge.

The drinks were strong, at least. A little too strong for me, as I found out later that night.

Yeah, so not doing that ever again.

Well that same last time I went, we went to see some porn stars, who were supposed to be the main attraction...well the regulars at the club looked WAY better than they did, not a bad one in the bunch.
