The other side of strip clubs

I spent a couple hours at Wacko's in Jacksonville FL this afternoon.&nbsp; Wacko's is a small, hole in the wall strip club that is in a strip shopping ctr just off I-95 near downtown JAX.&nbsp; It is technically a bikini bar, but the rules are fluid depending on the dancers.&nbsp; I have been here many times, and as I have stated in my reviews, the club is definitely hit or miss.&nbsp; It was very slow today, about 6-8 dancers and maybe 10 guys.&nbsp; As I sat at a table just off the runway type stage, I watched a procession of dancers in all shapes and sizes do their one dance set, then move on to the smaller stage at the end of the bar.&nbsp; From Ginger, a quirky beauty who was sexy as hell in an off the shoulder short dress, to Jocelyn, a heavy-set girl I have seen before who oozes confidence, to the requisite assortment of anorexic, flat-chested, tattoo covered dancers who filled out the afternoon shift.&nbsp; I tipped Ginger on stage a couple of times. She was flirty and sexy, flashed a nice set of boobs and had fun.&nbsp; I also tipped Amber, a busty 23 yr old who was a little more conservative, and Jocelyn.&nbsp; <br /> <br /> Another dancer who caught my attention was a girl named Jazzy.&nbsp; She was young, oddly cute, with red hair, an average body at best, and a rather reserved dancing style.&nbsp; After I tipped her at the stage she came down and sat with me. We talked for over an hour.&nbsp; It was her first day at the club, and was bored.&nbsp; She had danced at a couple of the other JAX clubs.&nbsp; There was something about her.&nbsp; Come to find out she was 23, has two kids of her own under 3, and two step kids, also under three.&nbsp; She comes from a bad family background; her mom died when she was 4 and her dad died of a heroin overdose when she was 12.&nbsp; She basically raised herself with some help from one of her grandfathers.&nbsp; She moved to JAX about 6 months ago from Miami.&nbsp; She wants to stop dancing, but needs the money until she gets a call on one of the dozens of applications she has filled out for real jobs.&nbsp;&nbsp; The thing that struck me most was her attitude.&nbsp; She is determined&nbsp;to make a better life for&nbsp;herself and her kids.&nbsp; She is smart, both book and street.&nbsp; She seems to have&nbsp;what it takes to be successful if someone gives&nbsp;her a chance.&nbsp; She is willing to work hard.&nbsp; I felt&nbsp;bad when I had to tell her I didn't have enough money with me to have her dance for me.&nbsp; She took&nbsp;it in stride and stuck around for another 15 min before saying she needed to make some money.&nbsp; I understood.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br /> <br /> I told&nbsp;you this to point out something.&nbsp; Before&nbsp;my&nbsp;discussion with Jazzy, a tall, thin, blonde &quot;Barbie&quot; dancer, who was dressed in a stupid costume and who wore sunglasses in the&nbsp;dark club, asked me&nbsp;if she could sit with me.&nbsp; Her whole&nbsp;aura had the &quot;my shit don't stink&quot;&nbsp;feeling.&nbsp; When I told her&nbsp;I preferred to sit alone, she&nbsp;looked at me like &quot;How dare you?&nbsp;&nbsp;Don't you know who I am?&quot;&nbsp;&nbsp;I was kind of happy I pissed her off.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The time I spent&nbsp;talking to Jazzy&nbsp;was better than anything this fake, primadonna could have ever given me.&nbsp; <br /> &nbsp;
