A Year Without Strip Clubs

In my state - for almost a year during the pandemic - there was nowhere to find vice. Strip clubs were closed, AMPs were (supposedly) closed, even regular bars were closed.

Websites exploded with talent looking for clientele, but I'm not one for meeting a random lady and taking my chances on a sting or a bad time. I like to see the talent, get comfortable, and pencil them in to the regular list when the time is right. None of that was available for about a year.

If I'm being honest, even if they had been, I'm not sure I would have gone. I knew for example that a reliable talent was available for takeout at her place, and that my preferred AMP was still up and running, even with the closed sign; I chose not to go to either of them.

During a pandemic, I saw takeout as too risky (some of you have strong opinions otherwise, you have a right to your choice. A preemptive FU if you don't recognize my right to mine). And AMPs are not the same kind of draw for me as a strip club, so that decision was pretty easy. So with all that I think I probably would have landed in the same place for a strip club. Probably.

That said, the pull for vice was really quite strong. I believe I survived that whole year with the notion that as soon as things opened up, I would be out again in a flurry of lap dances, VIPs (which I don't normally do), and take out. I was going to spend all that money that was still in my pocket after a year of drought, and it was going to be stellar.

Now that things have opened up, here is the status: it has been stellar, but not in the way that I imagined. I can say two things:

1) I am way more discerning on where I go. I get a significant amount of pleasure just being in an environment where women are showcasing their bodies and their talents. Having been deprived of this for a year, I realized how much an ambience mattered. I'm done with dives and 'hole-in-the-wall' clubs. I want a lounge atmosphere where I can relax and chat w/ a beauty or relax and enjoy the view. I do not want to sit in a musty corner of a tiny dive hoping for the attention of the one 9 in the whole place. I enjoy my time out much more now that the actual place is a part of the goal, vs scoring w/ the talent

2) I am way more discerning on who I dance with. A year without has taught me I can tolerate a night or two without. I don't spend the desperate 'fine you will do' cash anymore. I grab a beer, enjoy the view, and if there is nothing to be had that night so be it. I enjoy my surroundings. When I do get with someone, it's the one that I wanted to get with, and the dances tend to be much more rewarding

All in all, I am having better experiences, and spending less money. Stellar. I wish a year without wasn't the price I had to pay to get to the point where every trip out is satisfying, but it is what it is.

    I agree with many of your points. I helps to remember what you really enjoy rather than what you think you should enjoy.

    I thought this was well written in explaining the current mindset and your evolution of that mindset. Continue to enjoy your 2021 experiences.
