The Perfect Balance

We all have varying degrees of strip club experience. Some of us have been in clubs since we were 18. Some only go occasionally, some go every weekend, and some have a cot in the back and just have the girls bring us food from the buffet occasionally. Whatever your various levels of experience, I can promise that there is one thing that is different for all of us. And that is what we consider the perfect balance. Life in general is all about balance, and strip clubs are an amalgamation of life in on a much smaller scale. We balance work and play. We balance getting money and spending money. But in the strip club, balance can be the difference between an amazing night and a 10 star review on this site, or it can be the cause of us never going back to certain places. What do I mean by balance in the strip club? All the elements. Price first and foremost. If cover is outrageous, your mood may be messed up before you even get in and sit down somewhere. On the other hand, an amazing night can be the result of going on a whim on $5 night. Next, the crowd. Many of us have been out to places when there's not a lot of people there, both other customers and dancers, and its just a bad time. Not that you should notice others in the club, because you're there to see T and A, but when there's less people, there's less money in the club, and unless you're a super big baller to pay all the girls you see, they're less interested. Then they don't try as hard, and its a bad time to be had by all. Next, how are the girls? Are you in a place where you feel scared to get herpes just by driving by? Or are you in a place where its a 7-up factory, and there's more trim than you know what to do with? Are the girls nice? Do they provide "good customer service"? And that's not even referring to ITC or OTC extras necessarily. But are they genuinely nice people to talk to and pleasant? Do they smell good? Are they somewhat intelligent or dumb as a box of rocks when you talk to them? I'm from Texas, and we're really hit or miss on strip clubs based on where you are. If you're in Dallas or Arlington, you can get both some really good places that make you wanna keep coming back and breaking a lot of bread, but on the other hand, you can have a lot of places that make you go home and wash and question your life. I went to college in Wichita Falls, which had slim pickings when it came to attractive girls, but because of that, the less attractive ones tried harder and did more. This meant that by sacrificing a dance with a 7 or 8, you may get an amazing LD from a 5 or 6 for more time and less money, and high mileage, which is some peoples thing (including mine). In my perfect world, I'd like cover to be in the single digits in the smaller cities, but I expect to pay more in a place like Dallas, so I don't mind paying 10-20 dollars for those. Any thing above $20, and I typically won't go, unless its something that's an amazing special event or something (ie pornstar etc). This is not to be cheap, but because I prefer to spend my money on the ladies and having fun, rather than spending it to get in the door. As far as attractiveness of girls goes, my perfect balance is a nice blend of 5-10s. I'm not a sucker, but being intelligent and actually able to hold a conversation goes a long way with me, rather than pure attractiveness,if I'm first visiting a place and haven't established any favorites. Of course if I hit a place where the upper end of the scale is scarce, that's something else entirely, and I'll throw money at the one or two 8s or 9s, or just sooner go home. I've also gotten to a point, where if I don't go to a club and get at least one LD, I'm not happy with going. It doesn't HAVE to be a private dance, but I do prefer those. I have had some amazing couch dances and then not pursued more with those girls. As far as extras, I have gotten BJs bare back in places before, and had some girls come over to my place and do private dances. But its not something I expect, nor is it a deal breaker. Everyone has their limits and its no skin off my back either way. Some girls are so awesome at dancing, that the dancing is enough and I'm good. As far as drinks go, I don't go to strip clubs to drink usually. I'm going to see the girls. I may drink there if there's a minimum or if I'm with a party of people, but typically I prefer to pregame at home and then get a ride there if I'm too drunk to take myself. I could go on and on, but that's just a sample. So I write this to share my perfect balance and then hopefully get a good discussion on others perfect balance. And do you hit it a lot? Or is it like the Holy Grail?
