Are most Strippers Secretly Whores?

This OTC (Outside the Club) craze on TUSCL doesn't seem to be dying down anytime soon. I've searched recent discussions and older ones too and most of them regarding OTC have come to the conclusion that almost all strippers will OTC or fuck for money; it's just a matter of how much money and how much time it takes for them to warm up to it. I would add it also depends on whom the stripper will OTC with as the physical strip club gives them the means to be choosy. I've also seen some schools of thought that have said that girls that work at a club that is not extras friendly are even more likely to OTC. And I've seen yet another conclusion that the really hot girls are as likely or even more likely to OTC at who knows what price, but it's hardly out of reach or un-affordable let alone unobtainable.
And yet all this initially seemed like crazy talk to me. Let me be clear. I'm not calling anyone here a liar. For the most part, i do believe that a significant number of the TUSCLers have met dancers OTC. And that a significant number of dancers do have sex OTC. I still think that is a relatively small number overall and that somehow these two (dancers that OTC and PLs that OTC) somehow attract each other. The reason i say this is because it seems so counter intuitive to what i have seen and experienced. I know, individual anecdotes don't mean squat regarding what is the overall reality of an entire industry . I know that sooner or later economics catches up to almost every dancer, and most of them are terrible about managing and/or saving/investing their money. And they have to make that hard choice.
I've known dancers that danced in such a way that i didn't think they would ever do extras. There were also hot enough to do pretty well anywhere they worked. But then a couple of them got fired numerous times from the non-extras clubs where they make bank being clean. And then i hear that one of them is sugaring, essentially a variation of OTC. She tells her other dancer friend (one of the hot supposedly "clean" ones i was talking about earlier) that she doesn't have to put out or have sex, but we all have a bridge to sell her, including her friend, who doesn't believe her either. And then that friend (the one that was telling me about her sugaring friend) ends up getting pregnant despite not being in a committed relationship to the best of my knowledge. In other words, there was a strong possibility that she was engaging in pay-4-play herself.
But I am digressing. Like my anecdotes, the above are just two examples and not necessarily reflective of the reality as a whole. The logic follows that dancers work at non-extra clubs because they don't want to have to do whore-like activities. Sure there may be quite a few whores or escorts infiltrating the non-extra clubs to solicit sexually frustrated customers, but that hardly seems to be the norm. It doesn't make sense that these "conservative" dancers would suddenly be open to the risk of meeting a PL OTC. If they refuse to do extras, it follows that OTC should be out of the question.
Basically it comes down to this. I've just run into too many of the SW type of dancer that seems to have strong boundaries, and seem to be in strong denial that they are sex workers, taking their clothes off for money, and grinding dicks for songs (many times to LDK) at a time and being groped and fondled on the ass and tits. How many of these things can a PL do to a woman in real life and not get arrested and put away for a long time? And yet women will do it for money and men will pay for it and do it with relative impunity all in the safe and "legal" confines of the strip club.
It doesn't take much to rationalize having actual sex for money after one has accepted that they are indeed sex workers, just varying in matters of degree. Also a good portion of my time SCing was when clubs weren't as extras friendly and many dancers could make a lot of money just doing low contact or non contact lap dances and stage shows when money was worth almost twice as much as is not adjusted for inflation. Both average escort hourly rates and average daily earnings for strippers were in the several hundred dollars range. They're actually less now. So back then, there really was less incentive for a stripper to do OTC and if you were able to do it was also much more relatively expensive.
Also consider that many young girls are giving it up essentially free with all the extensive sexting, tinder, hook-ups and it just a matter of time before they put two and two together and figure out a way to monetize it. That doesn't mean that they OTC with whomever offers it to them. Instead of the escorts that also strip using the clubs to find johns, these are essentially sugar babies that strip using the club to find suitable SDs. Again, i have no real definitive idea how pervasive either situation is.
And then you have the dynamic of dancers themselves that judge other dancers as whores when they themselves have probably had sex (or whatever extra) for money, but were just much more selective about it in their mind (it was their choice), so they considered it more like a date that they got paid for if OTC or just some heavier flirtaton if extras ITC rather than being a prostitute. Of course, if you removed the compensation, there is no way they would have had sex/extras, so we have still clearly established what they are. There should be nothing wrong with it though; everyone sells something of themselves for something regardless of what or who you are if you live long enough. It just seems that selling your body (and some people still sell their body, but in terms of physical labor often to the detriment of their bodies or they'll sell their body or likeness in terms of marketing) sexually is unfairly stigmatized in this patriarchal society.
Finally, you have the economics of OTC/extras ITC/whoring. It would seem that if a girl refused to do extras ITC, she would be unwilling to meet OTC, especially when the offer for OTC is often less in terms of money per time compared to ITC. Especially if a girl, particularly a very attractive one could make significantly more working ITC without extras, it follows that she wouldn't do more for less OTC. But logic and strippers seem to be contradictions. And the market rate is the market rate for a reason and even strippers find it hard to OTC for significantly higher than that despite supposedly giving a better experience and being more attractive and younger than your average hooker. As the strip club as we know it becomes less lucrative for most dancers, and air dance clubs and non-extra bikini clubs become less and less popular (why people still go to those is beyond me; just go to Hooter's), and the economy just doesn't ever become the free spending, throw caution to the wind, never ending supply of increasing money that it was in the 90s, customers might only spend the relatively big bucks on extras and OTC in the future and LD prices for just your regular dance, might never go up (in effect going down in the future), continually increasing this phenomenon (strippers putting out). And as the camming scene just gets completely oversaturated, the world's oldest profession might start becoming a lot more common as the strip club becomes the easiest and most effective way of finding suitable customers.
I just feel that it is still too early to paint all (or even the majority of) strippers with the whore or potential whore brush, no matter how successful one has been with having sex with strippers for money. That's about all i have to say (so far at least) on strippers transitioning to prositution in some form or another. This article (which was originally going to be a discussion) was a little bit harder than i thought to write and it certainly doesn't compare to professionally written ones, but hopefully i'll get the hang of it sooner or later.

As far as how strippers (or non strippers) view themselves and what they are willing to do, I think that various from one to another and varies within each individual from time to time. We all rationalize all the time. And we are all damn inconsistent about it.
But every woman has a definition of what constitutes a "whore".
I was having a conversation with my fave when a couple dancers came into the club. She commented "the whores are here" (because they fuck and suck in VIP). She doesn't doesn't do itc bj or fs or otc. But about 20min later in VIP she was giving me a nice hj with dfk, she got naked (topless club) and I played with her clit., played with her tits and sucked on her nipples. Many women would call her a whore for doing that but in her mind she's not.

This is one of my favorite debates. I think there's lots of things going on here, including the fact that girls take home less than you think -- if a girl makes $100/VIP, and the club takes $30 of that, and she also has to tip-out at the end of the night, and she does 1 VIP per hour, she might have grossed $500 but netted barely over $300 for 5 hours at the club. Versus $300 or $350 for OTC, and many guys are fine with just an hour or two OTC. Plus, there's the emotional toll of being treated badly by staff, by other strippers, and especially by customers, whereas I'd bet she's always treated decently OTC. There's the physical toll of the hard partying and drugs many rely on to get through a shift. And lastly, I realize there's a huge contingent here who believe all strippers are coin-operated perfect economic actors, but in fact, many strippers don't want to have sex with everyone who walks in the door and instead are lower volume and want control over who they choose -- which is what they do OTC.
And THEN, look at how many guys just do really short OTCs, or do OTCs immediately following her shift, so she makes $350 pure profit for an hour of OTC, after having netted $500 or $600 for the previous 8 hours ... not a bad cap on the night.
I understand that whore has a very negative connotation and so does slut. I believe it is unfair and women seem to be even more vitriolic about it. I understand some of the reasons which i'm not going to go into and may be better suited for yet another article, probably a much more boring article that's only loosely related to SCs. But besides whore, prostitute, hooker and call girl, there really isn't a better word out there. What, harlot? Lady of the night? And many of these OTC/extra girls are hardly hookers or call girls and they (and sugar babies) have better selection and more autonomy (a key point) than your average prostitute. But they're still having sex for money or whoring. Or pay4play, but there's no noun version of that.
I know that strip clubs have been transitioning into veiled whorehouses for a while. Or a meeting place to create appointments for sex if that sounds better. But i do know that society is far from ready to accept such an establishment as it is. So i'm very content to let strip clubs be seen as something very different than a whore house and strippers seen as something very different than a whore and something more innocent or innocuous just so that they are still around. If most people still believe that there is no sex in the champagne room, great. If people still believe that you can't touch a stripper (much less likely nowadays) also great. Anything to reduce the stigma or prevent the deterrence of hot young women from entering and staying in the industry (which i can't say is truly victimless, but that is also yet another discussion/article) from a selfish PL's perspective.
I understand how much girls take home pretty well. I've often picked a girl's brains on how much her rent to work is ($20-100 depending how late she gets there), how much her various tip-outs (DJ, housemom: $20) are, and what she keeps from doing VIPs (about 55%) and private dances as well as any percentage of what she has leftover that she has to pay (10%). The girls i want to OTC still make close to $1000 or more (take home) on a Saturday night (or about $150+ per hour) and most Friday nights too, often not requiring extras, and often with a steady base of regular customers. Over there, a 4 minute LD is $30 of which they keep $22.50. Many of them do 30+ lap dances (or about 5+ per hour) on a weekend night and a couple rooms as well. They also get tips off their dances, rooms and stage as well. On and supposedly tips for conversation, but i don't pay that on general principle. No they don't make it every night, and on weeknights, they might make about half of that, but that might depend on how many regulars they might see, but their tip out is a little bit less on weekdays. But talking to them, that is usually their goal and expectation. I don't see why they would be incentivized to do OTC, especially if she doesn't do extras, for another $400 when she might have to work or go to school the next day after getting out close to 7 in the morning (the club closes at 6 on weekends). Her time usually also seems more valuable than that to her.
I don't do Saturday nights or $1000/night girls, the little bit of experience i have is that they ask for serious $$$
So yes, to put in your more blunt perspective, IMO, stripping counts as a form of whoring.
But there's a good type and the bad type. The good whore being the one that keeps herself clean, always uses protection, gets tested regularly, and tries to keep her work environment as sterile as can be (though that might be a challenge at some clubs. LOL)
The bad whore is the one doing anything and everything for no more than a dime extra than the general cost of dances/services offered, very open to unprotected services, does NOT get tested regularly and possibly causes outbreaks of STDs (especially if she's partaking in unprotected things), and/or does not care for the health concerns of others or hygiene.
I like whores. Just not the latter type.
But there's a good type and the bad type."
It's just like Chris Rock talking about the n-word! Maybe we should follow his lead, whore = bad whore, ho-ah = good whore
Okay, enough about rape as this comment is probably getting a bit uncomfortable for some. Whoring can include a woman taking her clothes off for money either in a strip club or for making solo porn. It can include any type of sexual act including masturbating herself in front of others, or other people whether with her hand or using her lower body to grind another person's genitals covered or uncovered often to the point of ejaculation. Or allowing others to touch her covered or uncovered erogenous zones whether butt, breasts or vulva. It can include giving or receiving oral sex and finally sexual intercourse and anal intercourse, protected or not. And it can include any type of kissing or being kissed on/licked on. You cannot force yourself onto another woman like this IRL without being charged with indecent exposure, sexual harassment, or assault. But as soon as a woman either consents or does it for money it is no longer those crimes.
I think strippers might be projecting about what a bad whore is. Like i said, i pass no judgement on whatever spectrum the whore falls on. You just never know when or if you'll walk in those very same shoes one day. Whether a woman is a professional whore or a civilian slut, the risks are always present and the johns and sexual partners of promiscuous women know that they can either catch something, give something or get her pregnant. Both the men and women have to decide if the risks are worth it. Many of them do.
Most women, if they have a decent head on their shoulders will make sure to use proper protection inside or outside the club. They will probably do their due diligence in asking the client if he (or she i suppose) is "clean" and if he is trustworthy. Of course, men can and will lie. Some of them might not know or care as well as the women. Heck, the vast majority of both women and men, but more women strangely, have some sort of herpes, often not knowing as the majority of people live with it symptomless and can spread it to the minority (who are very vulnerable and likely to get it eventually regardless of behaviour) that doesn't have any type regardless of protection. Any sexually active man or woman regardless of being a sex worker, john or not should get tested every now and then just for their own sake as some STIs have no symptoms initially (chlamydia and gonorrhea), but can cause permanent damage. This again, only minimizes risks, but doesn't eliminate them. Ideally, good hygiene is preferred even if only for its own sake, but too many people just have inadequate hygiene although the whole germaphobe thing at SCs is overblown.
But back to the stripper projection. I don't see why another stripper offering her services for a discount is necessarily bad in itself. The stripper might see such discount as an attack on her livelihood, but that's the reality of the free market. Pussy (or anything really) is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. If she's willing to give it up so cheaply, then that's on her and her loss ultimately. Or that's the realistic price that people are willing to pay. It's easy to extol (if not even be jealous of) the virtuous whore who puts a hefty premium on OTC or ITC extras so that it has no effect on the regular pay that other strippers earn while vastly increasing her own earnings. Or the whore that is very picky and selective and patient about who she engages in pay4play with (at top dollar mind you) on rare occasions with that she might as well just be a regular civilian on a date with another civilian on her own time (or even ITC) and it is just considered normal everyday social risk. And she sees so few customers this way, that it also has no effect on what other strippers earn. She's also not increasing the risk of diseases (or only negligibly) to others as she has a "near" exclusive relationship between her SD type partner and vice versa.
Many strippers could be open to such an "arrangement" but alas, it's still whoring (the "good" type) or being paid (overpaid even) to have sex with someone she is quite willing and comfortable with for an indefinite period. But the reality might be a different story (if it isn't already) as the strip club as we know it and SB/SD arrangements evolve in the near future.
Yeesh, i didn't intend for my comment to become another article.

OP: I think you are way over-thinking this whole topic. Firstly, trying to analyze the psyche of Strippers/dancers/whores/women in general is beyond the capacity of all of us here put together. But more to the topic, unless you have close interactions and friendships with dancers beyond their job I don't think most people can comment on what they do and how they rationalize it. Also don't take on board much of what dancers tell you in the club as we all know. The same girl who tells you no she doesn't OTC for $X, will do it with another guy for $X-, whom she for whatever reason would rather OTC. I'm sure I'm not the only one here that can recount instances of leaving with/meeting a girl who was solicited for way more than what we were paying.
As to the word Whore, that can be thrown around as freely as you wish, our politicians are the biggest whores around by any measure. Someone above said we all rationalize, which is the only way we could function in society.
Btw, those who have been at it long enough know, as was said above, money was flowing through the clubs and the economy as a whole much more than it is now. I knew some actual student dancers back then, but still, they mostly ended up putting out for $$ even so.
You can't quantify the incentives in the equation anymore than you can figure out the psyche of dancers or women in general. If you could, how would most guys in society get laid or procreate? There is little incentive for women to associate or sleep with the lower percentile males of the population, by whatever measure, yet still many hot strippers/women do..
Lol at that last girl. Did you laugh in her face? Some people do need a reality check.
I agree with you that the club scene has shifted in that direction greatly in the last decade. I wouldn't try to ascertain a cause. Also agree about the "clean" clubs and why people patronize them. Diff clientele, inexperienced clubbers, who knows? Thing I do know about them is that though ITC might not be available there in large part, OTC def is! Went to one such high end club on a biz trip in Tampa, had cameras in the rooms and all, but I left with a # and a proposition for later. Even in Manhattan have had that experience.
I guess OTC at clean clubs really must be a thing, again as counter intuitive as it sounds. A case in point, the Admiral Theatre in Chicago. A lot of the girls there don't even let you touch them much or grind at all, even though the bouncers don't seem to watch much anymore, and there aren't cameras in the booths at least to my knowledge. Just a partially closed curtain. Now there are some girls that give more contact/mileage, not a huge amount as they feel they can sell more dances that way (and the club only really sells blocks of dances instead of individual dances or true VIP). So OTCing them (or the large majority of them) would be a challenge, if not impossible. Also, almost all the girls there are a 7 or up with a large majority of them 8 or better, so that might also drive up the cost if they were even open to it. I'm not saying that most people are just OTCing with 6s or similar or worse, but i have no real idea and people just aren't telling. The club is also not known as a regular customer club, so there are always new customers there, especially on weekends. And yet, on a recent Facebook (or was it Yelp?) post, a female customer complained that a dancer (describing her, but not naming her) propositioned her and her BF/husband for sex, which she really didn't like, and a manager responded and thanked her and said he would investigate the matter. Talk about tough titties... So, yeah no club is immune to OTC, but i think it will be even more difficult at that club now at least in the short term.
Something that i just realized is that at these clubs where a dancer gives poor dances, is what idiot in their right mind would try to OTC her? She's clearly not comfortable with being touched intimately nor is she comfortable intimately touching you, and you want to have an OTC date with her? She won't give a great dance no matter how many you get ITC, and somehow she'll become the best whore OTC? And if the SW girls are to be believed, they still get propositioned. I guess in a way, these girls automatically filter themselves out and the PLs as well, but some people still don't get it.
As to OTC, that's where the rationalizing comes in. She may not be actually tricking, in her mind, its someone she's known for some time and hung out with, so it doesn't count. There are many scenarios to this, the game is finding out which works with a particular girl. She might not want straight cash, but a bill paid or similar.
You are right about the girl who isn't good in the club getting propositioned, doesn't make sense to us, but hags and fuglies get cat-called everyday so that doesn't stop guys from chasing them. I've seen dancers who I wouldn't give the time, rack up in the club and be tied up all night so go figure.
Even if you go to a hotel, there is no way LE can know that you are paying for sex. Couples role play this scenario all the time. If questioned, who is to say the dancer is not your girlfriend? Or even a one night stand?
I know plenty of TUSCL'ers who have done OTC way more than me with any number of dancers. They have never had a problem. There is more of a chance you run into a devious dancer than LE.
How do you think LE might catch you doing OTC?
It seems for some of the reluctant strippers, they need not to just feel comfortable, but also for there to be some mutual respect between her and her, i don't know, pay4play partner. I was at a restaurant, and a waitress told me that one of the customers at a nearby table was a stripper with her sugar daddy; she apparently knew the girl. Their interactions seemed "almost" like a regular couple, short of the lack of infatuation at her end. But they seemed to enjoy each other's company and were comfortable with each other. I'm pretty sure she would have resented being called a whore. To her, clearly there is some distinction. Maybe to him as well...
Personally, I like all my favorite dancers and appreciate them. The relationship is mutually beneficial. We’re all just trying to make it through life the best we can.
Your conclusion is inaccurate. You may need a broader sample size that captures places like NYC, L.A. and Dallas, among others. There are also plenty of nicer clubs in smaller cities with wealthier populations where fucking a 9+ for reasonable cash is a lot more difficult because they are already earning big bucks just from stage tips and "clean" services.
Now are there legit 9s fucking and sucking for decent cash? No doubt, I just had one blowing me in the backroom of a Miami club a couple of weeks ago. But not every place is like Miami, Detroit or even Providence...or for that matter some small club in the Chicago suburbs. ;) Economics play a large role in what hotter girls are willing to do at certain price points.
I'm not sure what we're disagreeing about. I don't think i ever said the superhotties could be had at regular market rates. And even concerning that they would be willing to do OTC, i did initially think that particular conclusion was also counter-intuitive. Just as i thought that it was less likely for a hotter girl to do extras ITC. But i think that hotness has less to do with what girls are willing to do, but how much they are willing to do it for and with whom they are willing to do it with. The hot girls have more options and can largely pick their customers on their terms if they're patient enough. Also the hot girls can make more money by expanding their "menu". And i'm not just talking about hard extras or FS OTC, but even anything beyond what is considered the normal strip club activity or mileage and contact. Just because a girl is very hot doesn't mean that her dances/VIPs are lame.
Let me put this another way. Say you go to an upscale club where the 9s and 10s are more likely to work. You go and a 6 or 7 walks up to you and offers to suck your dick in the back or even screw you bareback at the clubs regular VIP prices (which are already quite expensive). Do you take her up on it? Probably not as there are plenty of 9s and 10s in the club that already caught your eye and you have no interest in a desperate 6/7 ho. Many of the 6s and 7s couldn't sell "extras" there even if they tried (by extras i mean extra money on top of the VIP and not just extra services). They'd have to go even more bargain basement like regular LD area or OTC on the cheap. The 9s and 10s don't have to do extras to make money, but they are also the only ones that can reasonably sell extras very easily. There is no shortage of PLs with extra cash that want to spend it on a superhottie to get dirty. So if you're willing to pay the premiums, you might find that the hotties are just as likely (as a percentage of a clubs girls) to do extras and eventually OTC.
But this is just speculation. And the "conclusion" you referenced isn't one i came with but one that others offered from other discussions or articles that i initially didn't believe, but then thought it could actually be possible, and my own experience seems to confirm it. Many of the hottest girls at the club seemed to allow more (not necessarily extras, but say more mileage and contact) than many of the less attractive girls. There are still some hot girls that are only clean, but it isn't necessarily a bigger percentage than with the less hot girls.
But the premise was that it cost more to OTC or ITC the really hot girls. How much more was uncertain, but it wasn't something crazy like in the thousands. Heck, even top porn stars don't usually make more than a couple thousand a regular b/g scene, which usually takes most of an entire day, which is why many of them also escort; often three to four times higher than regular escort rates for the more famous stars, but usually not many more times than that. Their hourly rate will be around or similar to what they keep per scene so a hottie's OTC rate might be about what she takes home from a night at the club which might be comparable to what the porn stars are charging, theoretically speaking. Again, very expensive but not something nearly impossible to experience one time or even a few times for most people. Just a matter of if it's worth it (to both parties actually).

What is a girl that won't fuck until you pay her with expensive rings and a ceremony.
Or the girl who wants to be wined and dined before bedding?
Or the girl who fucks her boss
The difference between a prostitute and a civilian is the prostitute is honest about what she does with herself and the "nice girl" lies to herself when she won't fuck her date until he pays for at least three nights out or the "good girl" who won't fuck until you spend a year's earnings on a piece of crystallized carbon.
I really didn't expect this article to have such legs...
