Extras

I wasn't sure what they were, but in reading the reviews on this site, I have to say I'm shocked. I knew for a fact a great many dancers incorporate 'extras' into their VIPs, but what's more gross to me is the fact that it seems to be a common, even imperative part of dancing. I'm the only dancer I know, thus far, who actually sees the stage dancing as a progressive type of artform - blame it on my liberal arts education, I guess, lol. Therefore, while the money is nice, I'm more there for the thrill of the dance and the music.
I refuse to give extras. I have been asked for them, yes, but this is my policy. If I'm giving a VIP and extras are hinted at, the suggestion is ignored - I don't even acknowledge it. If someone gets pushy about it, that's enough to make me vow to never dance for them again. If that makes me a bitch, then all right. I'd rather be a bitch than a whore.
The purpose of dancing, IMHO, is to be a fantasy, to be a desirous form, a delectable, interesting, intriguing individual. The job is to entertain, not to suck/jack the customers off in the VIP room. Plus, there's the added unfairness of being a decent, hardworking dancer having to compete against tricks for income - I mean, which are you going to pick? A half-hour in which you can get whatever you want or a half-hour with simply a dance?
I want to know, mostly from any other dancers on the site, if it's possible to make a living in a middle-end club without giving extras. I mean both on day and night shift. I know the girls working in a very plush, glossy, high-end strip bar can go home with 1000+ each night, but that's because of the calibre of the place. On the other hand, I also understand that day shift is supposedly the 'extras shift.'
